ChampionshiD rnHlS fine spring day, It gives me intense pleasure to present to the readers of the Bergen Evening Record, some rather vague Information of the recent New Jersey State basketball championship games which were held Friday and Saturday at New Brunswick, N. In the Rutgers gymnasium which is situated along the muddy banks of the Earitan. I think an ideal All-State basketball tournament team would Include Meyer Bloom of Trenton, at center, Bibby Martens of Woodrow Wilson, and "Fakum" Bakum of New-' ark Southslde. at the forwards, and Carl Palumbo of Trenton, and Frank Penninrton of Rutgers Prep at the guards. Walter Chapulls, Fort Lee, who led Bergen's scoring last year, put the game on Ice for the Gray Bees against Hun.

Dave Walsh, Bayonne coach, and well-known official, Bloom can't take It and will never be a college star, where you must. Pat Kennedy wanted to fight anybody In the locker room where he was on the pan for not calling a foul everyone thought he was going to call as the whistle blew ending the Prep game. Charlie Schneider, a Newark coach, and Frank Hill, a Rutgers coach who hails from Newark, worked the Newark--, Trenton final. That's a case of poor judgment even If you try to forget the fact that Charlie Is a poor official. On Friday, Howard Bollerman had a black eye.

He played Friday night and showed up at the tournament on Saturday with two black eyes. Bergen Mourns with Mr. Weekley. HARRY ROCKEFELLER, director of athletics at Rutgers, Is one of the nicest men I met. He wears a black derby that's not so nice.

8th Weekley's Cranford team was eliminated in the semi-finals laat year. Now they went to the finals before getting knocked off, and he's my candidate for the Most Broken-hearted Man in the State. Weehawken had the fastest-breaking team in the tournament. The only team In the county whose "break" can compare to It Is Garfield's speedy club. Carl Reed was thar with his daughter.

Art Argauer and Carl Biggs had their wives and with all due respect to America's womanhood, I hope the gentlemen had as good a time as the other coaches. Fort Lee took a beating. That could happen to any team. But why didn't the boys stay over and enjoy the rest of the games? The State Association, I'm1 certain, allows them expenses for Saturday. Too can imagine how John Steinhilber looked walking alongside of Howard Bollerman.

Herschel Mosier, Pat McKinley, Oscar Thompson, and Red Gebhardt. Al Brown, whose picture is still hanging over at the Ivy Club, showed the boys the big buildings around the Red Hot Stoves Unsafe with Buck Around. EE SAVAGE, Cliffside coach, gave the hilarious North Jersey group an air of dignity. I hope no-one knew that he was Just sleepy. Buck Brarman, Englewood scholastic booster, borrowed a pair of gloves which belonged to a member of the bar.

He 11 forgot to give 'em back. Nick Prisco. Rutgers' athlete from Edgewater, had the parking concession. He's through in June and have you a Job for a football coach? Tbree men, who at one time and another have piloted the St. Louis Cardinals to a high place in the baseball wars, are working together under the Cards' standard.

Letoumer, a Frenchman, and De Baets, from Belgium, won Chicago' twenty-ninth international grind which closed Saturday night at the stadium. It was the tenth victorious ride for De Baets, and Letourner's sixth. They won over Jules Audy of Montreal, and Bill Grimm, by three laps, covering 2,191 miles and nine laps. Audy and Grimm took second place by scoring 616 points, although the Le Page-De Lille and Thomas-Schal-ler teams covered the same distance. The latter had 516 and 308 points, respectively.

There seems little doubt that George Mangln of Newark, N. is America's outstanding indoor tennis player.

But even while he was winning his second national indoor title Saturday, his opponent, Cliff Sutter of New Orleans was putting, in a claim for high all-around court honors. MANGIN HARD BLASTER Mangln, smashing; the ball so hard that it fairly skidded across the boards and hardly bounced at all, volleying brilliantly and adjusting his game perfectly to the difficult conditions, looked almost unbeatable. Yet Sutter, who was playing in this third indoor tournament, almost accomplished this feat. The final score in Mangin's triumph was 6-1, 6-3, 2-6, 3-6, 6-2. With hardly a rest after the terrific singles final, Sutter came back with Or.

Eugene McCauliff of Yonkers as his partner and played an important role in winning the doubles crown from the "upset" team of the tournament. Dr. Lawrence Kurzrok and John H. Plttman of New York in another five-set struggle. The scores were 6-4, 6-8, 10-8, 6-4.

PRENTICE NEW CHIEF York, March 20. The drive to bring back the Davis cup to the United States this year got under way today with the re-appointment of Ber-non S. Prentice of New York as chairman of the Davis Cup Committee. As soon as the appointment was announced by Harry S. Knox, president of the United States Lawn Tennis Association, Prentice issued a call for the General Davis Cup Committee of twenty-six to meet here March 27 to discuss plana for the campaign.

The naming of Prentice was taken as an indication that his training methods, adversely criticized last year when the American team lost to France, had the backing of the Association and that the team probably will compete in the Wimbledon championships this year. MONTICELLOS AND CAPITOLS IN TIE For the second straight week the Barry Auto Electric quintet, pacemakers during the past two months in the American-National bowling tournament at Thum's alleys in New York City, took three games on the chin. Last week's upstarts are Nick Manzo's West New York Roofer's third place group. The previous week the Capitols won three and following the loss to the Roofers the Barrys drop Id a third place tie with the Spartans, the Capitols are tied with the Monti-cello Club and West New York is third. Eddie Botten was in rare form as the Roofers shot from sixth to third place.

His 122 series included a 280 score which establishes a tournament record while his team totaled 3,189 in the series for another mark. The standings: TEAM STAMPING W. L. Ave. U.S.

South Side on Saturday night at the new Rutgers University gymnasium in New Brunswick enabled the Red and Black to equal its best previous mark of two straight championships.

WON IV 1927, '28 Back in 1927 the Capitol City team annexed the then Class crown for the first time In the history of state tournament play. The following season witnessed a repetition of the feat and Trenton became the only team, excepting Passaic, to garner the crown more than once, suc cessively or otherwise. Now Trenton Is again sporting a two-year reign, thanks to the 31-17 drubbing It dealt South Bide before 3,800 spectators at the Rutgers court. South Side was the victim in 1932 also, though not in nearly as decisive fashion. MASTERY COMPLETE Trenton humbled Guido Cavailaro's team in a manner unthought of In pre-game forecasts.

Victor over New Brunswick on Friday night in a ragged showing, the Trentonians were figured but slight favorites at best to repeat its last year's feat over South Side. The Newarkers had flashed brilliantly on Friday to trounce Paterson Central. But South Side never had a look-in as the teams closed out this year's state-wide classic. Smith's quintet whisked away to an 8-2 lead in the first period and continued its great work in the next to walk to the dressing room for the half-time intermission with a 17-4 advantage in its possession. South Side wasn't scoring; neither was it handling the ball much, for the champions performed in true kingly fashion, passing through and around the rival defense in uncanny style.

A "gift" field goal by Gottesman in the first period and a two-pointer by Walter Bakum In the second constituted South Side's entire first-half scoring output. SECOND HALF MORE EVEN South Side went better in the last half, but was outscored by 14-13. Bakum was a''owed to take set shots from far off and dropped in four tries. He tallied eleven points during the contest. Meyer Bloom, six-foot, six-inch center of the Trenton five, tallied 14 for high-scoring honors.

Bloom played Bennle Goldfadden, South Side's scoring ace. during the game and limited him to a lone field goal. Against Central on Friday, Goldfadden had amassed twenty-one tallies. The score TRENTON 3U SOUTH SIDE 1171 O. F.

WILSON HURDLES JINX After five years of "almosting," Wee-hawken's Woodrow Wilson cagers finally crashed the title circle on Saturday. Les Purvere's speedsters ran Hamilton Township into the boards to run up a 40-22 victory in annexing the Group 3 crown.

Three times prev iously the Hudson school had lost out in the finals and this year's triumph was acclaimed long and loud by the team's large rooting delegation. Hamilton held the Wilsonites even in the first period but fell far to the rear In the next two as Weehawken rolled up 23 points and allowed but four.

On Saturday a fast Keyport outfit took its place beside Carteret by flashing a sensational second-half rally that toppled Scth Weekley's combination in the Group 2 finale by 26 to 22. The defeat brought an end to a 21-game skein held by Cranford. Both teams had their ups and downs in this game, the last of the three played in the afternoon. Key-port led early by 8-2 and then saw its edge wiped away quickly as Cranford recorded fifteen consecutive points. Then, trailing by 17-9, Keyport rushed through the third period and part of the fourth to amass eleven straight tallies and regain the lead.

Cranford offered stubborn opposition thereafter but never overhauled Coach Stanley Carhart's crew. The score: CRANFORD KEYPORT U6) o. F.r. a. F.

David Hughes was second with 47 and Eddie Lambert third with 48.. The event was the tenth of Its kind this winter. LemuV Tarcher, of Rochelle Park, is an outfielder on Wilder Tasker's baseball team and he's just as wide as he is long. Claude Bell and Jake Taylor were hitting the boys up for sporting goods orders. They wound up by promising the coaches a free pair of baseball shoes each.

They still have to get the orders. Dutch OeUerman, the es-Ridgefleld Park athlete, is the kind of a fellow who would draw to an inside straight in a -( poker game. Personal stuff: I like Benny Silverman the most of all the officials. He's quiet and unassuming. When Pat Kennedy calls a foul, he makes the kid basketball player think he committed murder and grand larceny.

Mr. Short Passes Up His Caustic Critic. TITALTER E. SHORT, my pal, and who is Secretary of the State Association, gave the B. E.

R. press passes all right, all right, but many other scribes were given extra comps. Another case of swelegant Judgment which burns me up. No-one would give two cents for Trenton's chances against Southslde after the semi-final games. But how Slir.ie Smith boys can mop up when they're going.

11th For Blood St. Benedict's Win Gives 'Prof." Another Title to Rutgers WHILE most coaches regard one championship as an event long to be remembered, Ernest A. Blood, who tutored Pas-saic's great "wonder" oufits, now has eleven to talk about. The latest Blood success was gained on Saturday as St. Benedict's, of New.

ark, defeated Hun School, of Princeton, 24 to 19. after a thrilling battle that required two extra sessions to bring out the result. The Class A Prep diadem rode with the result. EIGHTH FOR FREP St. Benedict's win was its seventh under Blood since 1926 and its eighth, the Newarkers having won in the first tourney back in 1919.

Blood coached a championship team on lour occasions at Passaic. Hun School furnished plenty of opposition to the Bees, but after tin first extra canto had brought no scoring, leaving the teams deadlocked at 19-19, the Princetonians faltered and Doug Cox whipped in a field goal that settled the issue.

TRIPLETT WINS AT ASCOT, SETS MARK 'By Associated Press Los Angeles, March 20. Ernie Trip-Iett, Los Angeles automobile race driver, established a new track record when he won the 93 -mile feature al the Legion Ascot Speedway yesterday.

Nap had his Waterlool and Walter E. Short had a shortage ot dough. Only the finals drew a packed house of 3,800 fans and that was even better than Rutgers did with Princeton at the dedication of the gym. Eddie Tryon, Al Brown, Art Argauer, and Pat McKinley, who positively did not have any teams in the tournament, cried from force of habit every time a team was beaten.
