UP1 MIAMI RAGING IS IMPERILED Guerke, Pohf, Robey, Hamilton, Payne And Felter Principal Threats Ethe! Brewer Heads Field Of 50 Women Who Begin Play Tomorrow Night Bj DON KL1I One hundred men, picked from the citys 40,000 bowlers, tonight ktart a 30-game chase toward the; city championship in the eight-' eenih Evening Sun tournament at the Recreation alleys. Tomorrow night, fifty lo the pick of the crop, will be-i a similar drive to a title, with their action scheduled at thej Franklin alleys. Both groups ofj bowlers will take the lanes at 7.15 i clock. These bowlers, both men and omen, will have to establish vorld's records if they are to surpass the totals which last year won the two divisions of the tournament far Temple Keene and Ethel Brewer. Set World Records Keene rolled a 30-game total of 3.950 last season to set up a world's mark and Miss Brewer's 3.656 con-rtinited the same sort of record for the division devoted to the so-called weaker sex.

Both champions will be back to defend their laurels against the strongest rivals that can be assembled against them and there is every indication that this tourney, which comes to a conclusion on Sunday, January 3. will be just as hard fought and interesting as the seventeen which have preceded it. Naturally the chief interest in the meet will center around the ability of the title-holders to defend themselves. No man ever has won the tourney twice since it was placed on the 30-game basis in 1938, but Miss Brewer captured first honors in the 1940 and 1942 meets and now seeks her third triumph Usually The Evening Sun rolling brings out numerous surprises. Unsung pinsters seize opportunity to topple more highly favored rivals from the various rounds, so that picking early choices is just about as useful as trying to handicap a dozen first-time starters in a race at Bowie.

Some Favorites However, there are a good many bowlers in The Evening Sun meet who run pretty true to form, whether it be in this meet, a sweepstakes or in league competition S3 there are bound to be some favorites in the field. Among Keene's foremost rivals, in the opinions of those who have fallowed the early winter averages snd the top duckpin events held so fsr. will be Lou Pohl, Nova Hamilton. Wiimer Robey, Nick Paye, W-nny Guerke and Art Felter. Others concedeo to have excellent chances to land among the prize winners are Julian Easterday, Sattuek, Bill Brozy, George Schresber.

Lee Seim, Buck Schane and Bill Esser. Marilyn Mann, Myrtle Liphard. "Wiiii Sealover, Lola Shanahan and Elizabeth Barger shape up as top prospects to unseat Miss Brewer while Ruth Zentz, Ardrey Mul-ianey. Pat Scheafer and Gertrude Vjtkoski are others who seem to be in their best form at this time. Guerke Leads Way In the latest sweepstakes aver- es.

ii9(v. Phillips'. $14.60. Royal Flush Runs Second And Court Ball Third Victor Pays $17 Mutuel By the Associated PressJ Charles Town, W. Dec.

18 Mrs. P. A. Rothfuss Super Foot made his only Charles Town start a winning one today when he drove to a length victory in the sixth race, best offering on the. program.

The son of Charing Cross and Dunwell, away from the winner's circle since early last summer, took command early and refused to give way, leading Vincent Cicero, Royal Flush to the wire. A half length from second money came Mrs. William Lynch's Court Ball to be third. A field of eight competed in the battle over the about-seven-fur-longs course. With mst of the betting centered on Royal Flush and Mrs.

Mary Elizabeth Whitney's entry of Ilefetchit and Big Ripple, Super Foot returned a $17 mutuel to his scattered backers. Jockey Willie Dufford took Super Foot to the front going to the first turn. Royal Flush, close up, was steadied along by Jockey Danny Scocca. Approaching the stretch, Royal Flush moved to the outside and was almost abreast of the leader. In the final drive, Super Foot held on gamely but Royal Flush weakened under punishment.

Court Ball came from well back to force Ilefetchit out of the third position. Oomph Registers In a finish that lacked only inches of being a deadheat, H. G. Tonkin's Oomph defeated Mrs. Mary E.

Whit ney's Stella's Sun in the first race of the day. The two rivals hooked up in their stride-for-stride battle entering the stretch and Jockey Danny Scocca made Oomph come again to be up in the last jump Third money in the field of eight went to Glorene. Oomph, the twenty-sixth winner of the meeting for Scocca, was in stalled a heavy favorite and re turned a mere $3 mutuel. Oomph forged to the front at once and drew clear of Stella's Sun. Entering the stretch, the Whitney colt came up to challenge and carried Oomph wide.

From that point to the wire it was a vigorous battle. Another nose finish marked the second race. H. B. Langdon's Cor-" nelia Jane, from E.

B. Le's Vendor's Lien. Third money went to M. Paschal's grand step. Cornelia Jane raced McIIenry into defeat to take a brief lead.

then staved off the closing bid of Vendor's Lien while under punish ment. Jockey Carson Kirk rode the 5-year-old mare over the six and a half furlongs course in 1.21 and she paid $24.60. Belmike By Four Lengths W. W. Waters' Belmike proved the second favorite to win in three races.

Jockey Woodrow Kirk rode Belmike home four lengths in advance of O. S. Jennings' Lady Jaffa with E. B. Lee's Ultima Thule third in the group of eight going a mile and a sixteenth.

Belmike went past his rivals on the backstretch as if they were tied and had speed in reserve at the end. The winner paid $3.70 and registered time of 1:47.

S. Perry, Former Head Of Sports, Expected To Go On Sea Duty By the Associated Press Annapolis, Dec. 18 John E. (Billick) Whelchel, the man who molded a green Navy football team into an aggregation strong enough to overpower five rival elevens, including Pennsylvania and Army, was elevated to captain's rank today and appointed athletic director at the United States Naval Academy.

Whelchel, who succeeded Lieut. Col. E. E. (Swede) Larson, USMC, just one year ago as head football coach, will take over his new office January 11, 1943, Rear Admiral John R.

Beardall, academy superintendent, announced. He succeeds Capt. L. S. Perry, Navy All-America guard in 1918, athletic director since last June, who will be detailed to other duty, probably at sea.

Will Keep Coaching For the time being, at least, Whelchel will continue to coach football and, it was reported unofficially, this setup may prevail through the 1943 football campaign. No other changes in the Navy Athletic Association organization were announced. Lieut. H. Q.

Murray, graduate manager since June, will stay on, temporarily at least, to assist Whelchel. As athletic director, Whelchel Is head of the Naval Academy's physical training department, trans-fering from his present post of executive officer of ordnance and gunnery, his chief job since he returned from sea duty in July, 1941. His main responsibility will be the successful operation of an accelerated physical training program for 3,200 midshipmen. Whatever coaching he does will be of an "additional nature" to his regular duties, an academy spokesman said. Whelchel was appointed head coacn after serving as Larson's backfield coach in 1941.

He was a Navy quarterback under Coaches Jonas II. Ingram, now a rear ad miral, and Gilmour Dobie between 1916-18. Between 1919 and 1924, he was an assistant Navy coach and later coached fleet teams and Nor folk Navy Yard elevens before returning here. Had Little Material Whelchel started the past season with the poorest prospects any Navy coach had faced in recent yeas With oniy two lettermen re turning from Larson's once-beaten 1941 squad, he brought the Middies up to the point where they rolled over Penn, Columbia and Army in straight games, after dropping earlier decisions to William and Marj' Princeton, Georgia Tech and Notre Dame. The Sailors' rousing 14-0 triumph over an Army eleven considered a 17-5 favorite provided the final flourish in their gallant uphill struggle to conclude with a winning season.

Perry, now destined to leave An napolis for "more important duty" with the navy, was stationed here in July, 1940, and in December of the same year became graduate manager of athletics. Last June, after Capt. H. C. Overesch was ap pointed commandant of.

midshipmen, Berry was named athletic direction. In September he was made a captain. Fail Grounds New Orleans. La. UP) FIRST RACE Purse $600; claiming; for 2-year-oias; six lunoiiKs aLaclma Boy 115 xc Venture Olrl.

GIRLS SEEKING FORWARD JOBS Friends Coach Has Too Many Candidates Some May Become Guards By' FRANCES TURNER An overabundance of forwards is the problem which confronts Mrs. Junius Millard, coach of the Friends girls' basket-ball squad. There are more candidates for these positions than at any time in the memory of the coach. Mrs. Millard is considering converting some of these would-be forwards into guards but so far the matter has not reached the actual stage of tutoring them in the fine points of defensive play.

Several of the girls are adept at both positions, including Lila Andrews, Priscilla Littman and Ellen Levy and the coach may take advantage of their versatility later on. Rates Six On Par Six of these forwards are equally good, Mrs. Millard believes. Lila, Priscilla, Wendy Forbush, Judy Roche, Elaine Kieffner and Janet Rossman are so rated. So there's another headache for the person who must select the three for the varsity and the next best three for the junior varsity.

A new girl eligible for the first time is Forward Gloria Do'oihal, a former seventh and eighth grade star, now a freshman. Betty Ebel-ing and Ellen Levy are two other good shooters trying out. Three promising newcomers, also in the forward ranks, are Jane Gore, Roma Luttrell and Dorothy Ashley. One Veteran Left Lois Hicks is the only 1941 varsity guard left. She has been on the team three years.

Nancy Taylor did not compete in every-game last year, but she participated in enough to get a blazer. Among the othet candidates are Jean Pfeiffer, senior, who never has been on the team; Ann Norris, a likely guard; Vir ginia Walker, freshman, and Gloria Breeskin. If there is enough interest in bowling to warrant a team, Mrs. Cover Brunt, coach, will pick one for interscholastic play. Two days per week the young pinsters perform at the Homeland alleys.

Mrs. Millard believes she has a good intramural program in basket ball. Everyone that plays the game is on a team. The varsity squad members coach, referee and umpire. This is invaluable experience for the varsity aspirants who can see mistakes and faults more clearly in this role.

Ted Williams Thought He Was GoingTo Be Safe "Special Dispatch to The SunJ St. Louis, Dec. 19 Luke Sewell, affable manager of the St. Louis Browns, told this story during the December major-league meetings in Chicago: The Browns' veteran pitcher, Knuckle-baller Johnny Niggeling, and Ted Williams, of Boston, engaged in a friendly verbal duel throughout the '42 season. Williams had trouble with Johnny's knuckler all season, and the last time they met he said: "There's one good thing about going into the navy I won't have to hit at your pitching next season." "Don't be too sure about that," replied Niggeling.

Restrictions On Gas Sale May Have Drastic Effect On Florida Tracks By the Associated Press Miami, Dec. 18 An unsuspected hurdle curtailment of gasoline sales sprang up today in the path of track operators prepar ing for the opening Monday of Florida's winter horse racing season.

Although all hands agreed that the sport could not survive in Miami under restrictions put into effect today, Tropioal Park went ahead with plans for the inaugural of its meeting. "I feel that this is a temporary measure, and that adjustments will be made," declared Tropical President Henry L. Straus, referring to the Office of Price Administration order limiting drivers to three or four gallons of gasoline for an in definite period. Ready To Go Ahead "We are all ready to go he added. "The horses are at the track, the plant is prepared and employes are ready to take their posts.

We'll do everything we can to have racing. We're not down nearted. We'll not squeal until we're hurt. "Under this drastic regulation, all Tropical Park can do at this time is to await developments." Straus added, however, that he did not see how racing could continue unless motorists could buy gasoline. Echoed Straus' Words Alex Balfe, chairman of the State Racing Commission, echoed Straus' words.

"There just can't be any racing under today's restriction," he said. Both Miami tracks Tropical and Hialeah are situated several miles outside of the city, most patrons of each depending on automobiles to get to the races. Straus previously had expressed the belief that race-goers would share their cars and manage to make their usual trips to the tracks even under the three-gallon-a-week basic ration then in effect. Look For Relief While horsemen looked forward confidently to a quick relaxation of the drastic gas ban, Balfe indicated the picture would not be too bright even should and ration books be returned to their former value, if the A ration is seriously cut. About 1,400 horses already have been shipped to Miami for the 96-racing-da season and 300 more are awaiting transportation.

Since Hialeah's meeting is not scheduled to begin until January 13, officials of the track withheld comment today while they watched developments Servicemen To Watch Sugar Bowl Tilt Free New Orleans, Dec. 18 () It appeared today that there will be a "free gate" at the Sugar Bowl for an anticipated 10,000 servicemen. The Young Men's Business Club here already has sanpped up 3,000 of the bargain tickets for soldiers which will be distributed free to the servicemen. Today the idea coming from Tulsa for business men to buy up more of them and give them to soldiers if they will root for Tulsa was accepted en thusiastically here. Tulsa meets Tennessee in the annual Sugar Bowl game New Year's Day.

The Tulsa team is due here to morrow morning, ihe lulsans will take a look at the Sugar Bowl, eat a French Quarter luncheon, and move on to Bay St. Louis to open their training camp. Tennessee comes in over the week end to Edgewater Park, which is near by. FAIR GROUNBS SELECTIONS LOUISVILLE TIMES For The Associated Press First Race Dog Show, Black Fire. Val- dinu Disco.
