BY JIAROLI) ItOIAX rpiILS year's University of Dayton basketball team isn't so bad. It has one big trouble, however, it ia suffering from being overncheduled. In their own class the Flyers would do ripht well.

But, for some reason, it's figured they must con-tinue to meet Ohio Marshall, Xavier and thn rest, becaune it's all sort of traditional. And teams of this caliber are just too good. With some breaks the Flyers could have a better record up to now for this season. But a team Veterans Still Showing How It's Done 3 a ex a a es a a ts a as a can't wait for breaks to make its season. Venske And McCluskey Beccali Ties Mile Mark Cedarville and Wilmington, two of the first three teams met by the worst possible weather condition, rolled up the most one-sided count in the 11-year history of the tournament to defeat Harry Cooper of Chicago, 7 and 6, in the finals yesterday.

He hacked sensational sub-par golf out of a course flooded by rain. Much of the match was played in a downpour. Greens were covered with water and a miniature lake formed on one fairway, When Revolta closed out the match on the 30th hole, he was four under par, Cooper, not up to his usually airtight game, finished three strokes over par. The winner, with a remarkable exhibition of chip shots and putting, carded 1 one-putt grcenrf. On the 27th green there was so much standing water, he used a masihie niblick for his first putt, nearly jumping the ball into the cup, In the morning round Revolta posted a 33-36 89, compared to par figure of 30-3672 for the Presidio course.

Cooper had a 35-3772. Revolta waa two up at the ninth and three up at the 18th, ife toured the third nine in 33 against Cooper's 30 to hold a seven up margin at the 27th, As runner up, Cooper won $500. Tony Penna of Dayton, Ohio, won $125 third money.

Three "old men" of foot racing Gene Venzke, Joe and Luigi Beccali are promising to bring some youthful enthusiasm into this season's indoor track meets that may annoy the younger runners no end, Their ability has been proved over a stretch of a dozen years or more. Many of their contemporaries have retired and springy midget auto racing track at the New York coliseum Saturday when Venzke and McCluskey each broke a Metropolitan A. A.

U. indoor meet record and Beccali tied the mile mark. Nearly everyone who won a race over that track also did it in record time. Still their performances and the fields they beat indicate they'll be near the front at Boston's Prout Memorial meet next Saturday and the Millroee A. A.

games here Feb. 1. Venzke, a top-flight runner the L. D. this season, were the right type 'of opponents.

Dayton can cope with them on the court, although it did lose to Wilmington. 1 But Saturday night the weakest Marshall team in at least three seasons, on an off night, whipped the U. D. by nine points, despite the gallant and entertaining tries of the Flyers. U.

D. basketball fortunes in the future may pick up. Time alone will tell. But In the meantime, why shouldn't the Flyer basketball "1 11 gain some more weight and then I'll jab that Joe Louis dizzy," he continued. "I'll make him so diwy that he'll think he's on a merry-go-round," Conn explained that he hoped to push his ring weight up to the 187-pound mark and then take on Louis late next summer.

He weighs 183 now but admits players be given a chance, by play- for 16 seasons, ran off with that hia ring --'eight probably would be about 178. That means 1000 yards Saturday in 2 the :14.2 lered the and Beccali, never consid he must gain at least 10 pounds if he ia to reach his goal.

Johnny Adams, who tied a Santa Anita Park record with five victories Saturday, Is leading the jockey race with 17 triumphs for the season. Wilh 68 mounts, Adams has finished second three times and third seven.

Both of them are entered for the Prout mile next Saturday to face John Munski, Chuck Fenske and Walter Mehl, considered the "big three" among the younger inilers, and Mel Trutt, the Indiana graduate. McCluekey's contribution to the Metropolitan record busting was a 14:34 three-mile run in which he lapped his field. The other record breakers were Jim Herbert, former New York university star, who won the 600 yards in 1:12.1 to beat Johnny Quigley of Manhattan, Torn Carey of the New York Pioneer club, with 6.3 seconds for 60 yards, and three New York university relay teams which recorded 1.46.7 for the 1000 yards medley, 3:22.8 for the mile and 7:30.6 for the mile and seven-eighths medley.

Herbert and Quigley are likely starters in the 600 at Boston this week while N. Y. U. has entered mile and two-mile relay teams. And when it comes to the old fellows, don't forget Eddie Gordon, former Olympic broad jump champion from Iowa.

But any boy who js a good enough boxer to advance until the novices are all gone, belongs in the class with the "vet" anyhow.

This year there are expected to be more novices than there have been in the tournament for several years. This is due to the new rule which eliminates any youth who haa registered to fight five previous years. Also, the fact that several of the 1940 champions won't be back adds confidence to newcomers. One champion who is out for sure is Shelton Bell, Wiiberforce's 1940 light-heavyweight king. He is a five-year man.

There have been novice boxers who have won championships in the past. One prominent example is Roy Burnside, the 1940 flyweight king. And he won't be back this year either. To get a chance at a Golden Gloves championship, all any boy over 16 years of age who is physically fit and has his parents' consent, has to do, is fill out the official entry blank and get it back into headquarters either by personal delivery or mail as soon aa possible.
