'THE BOSTON DAILY GLOBE-WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 16, 1946 Sports Fifteet Bruins Hosts to Revamped Rangers Team Lineups at Garden ed Priest Outmauls Gains Unanimous Award in Slow Bout at Garden Zivic in 10 Rounds saowo, o.eA Baseball Gets in Your Blood That's Why Red Rolfe Gives Up Dream Sport to Rejoin N.Y.,rankees, .44 rttle By HAROLD KAESE He leads an unbeaten Yale basket ball team against Harvard at the Arena tonight, but when Boston sports fans next see Red Rolfe, he will be 'coaching at third base for the Yankees, stealing pitches from Sox hurlers at Fenway Park, handing signs to Di Maggio, Gordon, and 'N Ilenrich, flaggibg base runners tearing NJ down the line. For 10 years as third baseman for the 4 mighty Yankees, Rolfe dreamed of becom- ing a college coach when his playing career 44 ended. He had played little basket ball, cbut the game fascinated him. From his home in Penacook, N. he made weekly pilgrimages mages to Hanover, to see Dartmouth ''''4's play, observe various systems, to listen RED ROL' to Ossie Cowles.

When he became Yale's baseball and basket ball coach, after colitis ended his big league career in 1942, Rolfe's dreams came true. Now three years later, he returns to the Yankees. Did the dream become a nightmare? Is he fed up? Did he need the big league glamour? Or was it money? Happy at Yale, but Major 1 dividuals. At Yale I had to go Leagues Gets Into the Blood I right to the fundamentals of dividuals. At Yale I had to go right to the fundamentals of By CLIF KEANE Al "Red" Priest, Cambridge middleweight, whose previous fistic knowledge had been decidedly immature, became deeply broadened when he out-mauled Fritz le Zivic, sage Pittsburgh veteran, before 8993 to win a unanimous 10-round decision at the Garden last night.

It was a rather unspectacular fight. For practically the entire distance the boys were locked together like the contents of a spaghetti bowl. Zivic, with merely a flicker of his former ability remaining after some 270 professional bouts, being content to move in and grab when the solid-chinned Cambridge red-head attempted to throw punches. Lemon Perfect One For Red Still it was the perfect lesson for Priest, whose opponents heretofore have been negligible on defense. Punches similar to those thrown with reckless abandon against John Henry Eskew and Freddie Cabral were casually slipped and caught by the venerable former welterweight champion.

Priest seemed to sense that Zivic wasn't going to be caught by any "sucker" blows after he had attempted a few of them in the first couple of rounds and settled down to brawl it out with Zivic. As a result neither seemed to be in distress at any time, although Zivic, who only on brief occasions came out of his defensive shell, stung Priest twice, once in the seventh round when Zivic drilled a right-hand smash over Priest's against John Henry Eskew and Freddie Cabral were casually slipped and caught by the venerable former welterweight champion.

I learned a lot coaching the boys, and they have given me some of my biggest thrills in baseball." Rolfe leaves Yale reluctantly, but as much as he loved the college life, he never could get the Yankees out of his mind.

"I'd look at the box scores, and read those familiar names Gordon, Di Maggio and Henrichand I'd just feel that's all." So Red is going home, home to the Stadium, with its pennants whipping in the breeze; home to the Yankees, with their inevitable class; home to Joe McCarthy, master among managers. "Coaching third will be brand new to me," confessed the greatest third baseman since Pie Traynor. "I'm going to work at it down South. It won't be easy. I've got to get used to the parks, and I've got to know how Yankees run and how outfielders throw." The Yankees leave for Florida Feb.

8. Yale closes its season against Holy Cross Feb. 10. What will Rolfe do? "I don't see how we can be unbeaten by then, with the schedule we have, but if everything goes all right, I hope the Yankees let me stay up for that game." Robert the Red will scout Holy Cross when it plays Boston College at the Garden tomorrow night. Its a combination," Rolfe told us yesterday.

"I've been very happy at Yale, but the big leagues get into your blood. The Yankees are a big organization. There might be a real future for me with them." What future is there for a third base coach, except a job-hunt when his manager is fired? For Red Rolfe there must be a brighter prospect, or he would not leave his dream berth at Yale. If things go right, he will be the next manager of the Yankees. Rolfe has every qualification for a big league manager, except that of experience.

He has shown at Yale that he can handle young Lthletes. His baseball record there shows 56 victories, 17 defeats. He won eight straight front Princeton, three out of four from Holy Crossthe teams that count. His basket ball teams have won 34, lost 10 games. Nobody will know until he tries whether Robert the Red can handle toughened big leaguers.

His standing in the ranks, however, showed that he commanded the respect of all the Yankees. Rolfe was a typical Yankeequiet, efficient, spirited. "Coaching for the Yankees won't be like coaching for Yale," said Rolfe. "There will be much less instructing of in (FACEOFF AT 8:30) BRUINS RANGERS Rrimsek Rignet Faan id rd Colville Henderson Id Justin Schmidt a 0 LaPrad Hauer rw Wataast Litimart itt? lw Patrick Bruins SkarceCalk, Mribi Ili.

By GERRY MOORE Changed In personnel, WIciency and allegedly character since their last appearance here, the last-place New York liangers will attempt to cut into the fourth-place hold of the Bruins tonight when these two N. II. L. rivals meet in a contest which will be embellished by the presence of the 'LINO inspection committee in the usual capacity crowd.

The Rangers will have two players from the Eastern Amateur League Rovers in their lineup. Churchill Russell will be at left wing in place of Alex Shebicky, and Harold Laycoe will be subbing for Alf Pike at forward, Both were injured Sunday Pike has six stitches he picked up on his forehead when rammed into an iron stanchion by Chicago's Joe Cooper. In that respect, it could be said that other Rangers will change in appearance, too, tonight since Phil Watson and Bill Moe will be ilshowing discolored optics as after' maths of that Sabbath sockdolager with the liawks. The efficiency improvement in the Rangers can only be based on their record in their last six starts during which they have won three, tied two and lost only one although that, of course, was a 9-3 bouncing from Canadiens. Their character transformation is only by reputation.

Since that 8-7 fancy skating soiree here Christmas, the Blue Shirts have suddenly developed into the roughhouse Rangers if the charges of the officials of Chicago, Detroit and one other unidentified club are to be believed. Accusations of flying blocks, illegal checks and other terrible 'treatment have been bruited about the New Yorkers as the result of Bill Mosienko of the Hawks and Harry Watson of Wings having been injured in tilts with the Rangers. Well, we'll see for ourselves tonight. Lew Jenkins Kayoes Zullo With Right to Jaw in Second SALEM, Jan. 15 (AP)Completely outclassing his opponent, Lew Jenkins, the Sweetwater.

Texas, swatter, took a stride along the comeback trail tonight by knocking out Jerry Zullo, Chelsea in the second round at the North Street Arena. Appearing in fine shape after three years of Coast Guard service, the Texan, weighing 13912, started off with a rush and dropped Zullo for a nine-count before the bout had lasted a minute. After a fast exchange of blows, the Texan whipped two savage rights to Zullo's face and the latter, who weighed in at a half-pound more than Jenkins, dropped. Zullo was floored again by Lew's right Just before the bell ended the opening round. Jenkins tore from his corner at the start of the second stanza and smashed Zullo around the ring, dropping him for the last time with another right.

Somerville apparently had the game sewed up in the final quarter with a lead of 10 points, only to see that margin dwindle when Johnny Flanagan went on a rampage scoring three baskets and a foul in less than two minutes. Al Perry, the only vet remaining from the great teams of the last two seasons, kept Somerville out front all the way with great play-making and shooting, and it was his basket in the final minute that gave Somerville its 40th consecutive victory in regular school season play.

HARVARD TALE Gray If Pr L'itrterlield Gantt rt la Swift Dectil Lavelif Champion It rt Walker Clark ri It Wandler By JACK BARRY Followers of John Harvard's stellar basket bill team were disappointed to learn though official announcement that sterling guard, Saul Marlaschin, set-shooting back linesman, in all likelihood would be absent from the lineup tonight for the major contest with rival. Yale.

All 7200 seats at the Boston Arena should be filled at game time, 8:15 this evening, as these two well-matched opponents lock horns. Harvard, defeated but once. that by Holy Cross, enters the tilt a slight underdog to a Yale five, which has racked up seven straight against crack opposition, chiefly due to the probable loss of the talented Marlaschin. Dr. Quigley.

Harvard's medico, announced yesterday that "it is extremely doubtful that Marry would be able to play due to an injured ankle sustained in the early moments of the Cross encounter. John Clark may start in his post. On the other side of the picture there is still the famed Wyndol Gray, greatest individual star to come Out of the West and camp on any local basket ball school's doorstep. Gray all but defeated Holy Cross himself last week, having an especially "hot" first half but more offensive momentum is needed from his teammates, to tip over Leven, Warstler, who is riding high, wide and handsome.

Perry of Trade was enough to beat. Commerce, 1 to O.

Anderson tied it up on a pass from Pannier and then went ahead on Anderson's solo. In the final round i Gene Hartling sank a pass from An-I derson and the same combination I clicked a minute later with Anderson on the receiving end. After a scoreless first period English lIigi got the jump on Memorial when Joe Griffin scored on a gang play. Then in the third period Memorial tied it up. Hank Zoppotti took a pass from Joe Pollini in front of the net.

With 46 seconds remaining Buck Jennings took a pass out front and beat Jim Dennis, who had kicked out dozens of shots all day, with a 15-foot line drive to win the game. The Trade-Commerce game was fast and furious all the way with both teams peppering away, but the only scoring came in the first period when Fred Perry combined with Panco DeStefano to score the clincher.

It was strictly a tribute to his ability to stave off Priest, who has rocked everybody he has faced in his career. Not once was Zivic in danger so cagily did he outguess every furious bid that Priest offered. In the eight-round semi-final, Johnny Forte, Philadelphia, stopped Ted Christie, Detroit, two rounds.

"They" are members of the undefeated Sylvester High of Hanover basket ball team, pace-setters in the South Shore League, who played tonight clad in hip boots, overcoats, hats and mittens. Furthermore, they played under girls' rules. Reason for the unusual situation was that illness of players on the Cohasset team forced postponement of a league game originally scheduled.

Whereupon, the Sylvester High girls' team, a champ in its own league, challenged brotherbasketeers, specifying that the boys must be clad in full Winter outerwear. An overflow crowd bulging the walls of the Sylvester gym saw the girls, dressed in snappy blue and gold outfits, get off to a flying start, They pulled the boys' hats down over their eyes, passed I around them, and scored. The boys soon learned, however, to use their coats as nets to catch the ball and break up pass plays. Ernie McFadgen, 6 ft. 6 in.

Four- More Players Added by Grid Yanks Boston Yanks took another step in the right direction yesterday, when they announced the signing of three fgrmer Southern Methodist University stars, Tom Dean, Red Maley and Jim Bulls. Dean is a 285 pound tackle whom S. M. U. Coach Matty Bell calls "the best lineman in the country," was an all-Southern tackle and started the North-South game, and was the Yanks number two choice last Fall.

Maley is a former service man, weighing 183 and standing over six feet and can run, and pass and is an exceptional kicker. Bulls was at Texas Tech until he entered the service and was sent to S. M. U. where he was an outstanding wing and very much respected for his pass snatching ability.
