Ho iilso spoke of other oldtimers in a great amount of optimism and pleasure.

There are many boys the bench who can play right up with the first stringers. Two men who displayed unusual form were Seavy and Slriaiuna. Zerbe and Cramer also look good in the guard positions. These boys stopped many of the Youngsville fast break plays. Other outstanding guards were Curren, Lutz and Conway.

As stated before there in no doubt the Dragons are as strong as ever and are out to win that District pennant again. Youngsville deserves a word of lind about Warren, many that were praise however, in spite of the fact my time. It dkl seem good, that some of their offensive drives lowever, to talk to someone who were muttled up by Warren. The Eagles defense is good, however, with Schnell and Ash doing come- mendable work.

game at the Coliseum, fit was a thriller if ever a game When Kenny Washington, U. C. L. A. quarterback, threw that pass, the third longest fhe history of college football, the jrowd just went wild.

Watch this (Washington next year. be an lll-American if he has any help from the other players next year. He can pass and run like the dark jitreak that he is. I hope that El is well on the road recovery. I haven't been able to pick up the Jamestown station for those Kunday morning broadcasts yet.

Sheffield High school varsity basketball teams opened the season here Saturday night with a pair of wins over the Kinzua High school girls and boys teams. The score of the game was 33 to 18, while the local femmes achieved victory by a count of 21 to 10. Both Coach Joe Massa of Kinzua and Wolverine Mentor Tom Drummond used every member of their respective squads an effort to get a better line on the capabilities of their players. This frequent substituting plus the fact that it was the firsi game of the season for both clubs extended the battle somewhat, but game was far from a listless affair. Box scores: S.

breathe it to a soul, but Chicago has the inside track on the championship brawl between Max mellng and Joe Louis next June, with Detroit running a spirited second. Contrary to snap judgment, the near capacity crowd that turned out to watch Schmeling paralyze Harry Thomas at the Garden night before last did not cause promoter Mike Jacobs to turn any handsprings. Mike, on the con- trary, looked over the assemblage and decided New York positively would not do as a setting for his pugilistic pearl.
