THE EVENING STAR Washington, B C. WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER IBM Volts Hope Good Start 'Will Lead to Happier Ending This Season By Bob Hanson Chamberlain High, off to a good start in basketball this sea- son, hopes it doesn’t run into the buzz saw that cut it down last year. The Volts have won three straight after dropping their opener to Carroll. No. 3 was a 55-42 defeat of Falls Church last night on the loser’s court. Cham- berlain now can sit back and re- flect on how to maintain a win- ning pace in the Interhigh League. It meets Eastern in one of four games January 7. It will be remembered by high school fans how Chamberlain was rocking along on an eight- game winning streak last year until competition became keener in league play. The Volts wound up with a 12-6 season record, considerably better than in prev- ious years, but only two of the wins were in the league. “Our starting five this year is a better-balanced unit,” Coach Ed Crawford was saying last night. "We’ve picked up a couple of players who are a big help. We have more staying power this time. It was our inability to keep in the game in the clos- ing stages that hurt us in the league last year.” The Volts have added two transfer students to their line- up and both have proved their worth. Gene White. 6-foot-5, from Anacostia, and Tony Maio, 6-foot, from Wilson, have the height to control the board*, along with. Ed McGhee, 6-foot-3. The shotmakers are Don Fugel, top scorer last year, and White. Both have averaged nearly' 20 points a game so far. Fugel, with help from White and McGhee off the boards, was high scorer last night with 23 points. The Volts ran up a 36-19 halftime lead and were never in trouble. Bob Blake with 19 points was high for Falls Church. Suitland High is serving notice that it will be a threat in the Maryland Bi-County League. The Rams won their fourth straight last night after an opening season loss, defeating Frederick Sasscer, 59-25. Ken Moreland of Suitland took scor- ing honors with 22 points. Dave Cross was high for Sasscer with 19. Tech got back on the winning i track after two straight losses,! running away from St. Anthony,! 61-31. Coach Artie Boyd gave practically the entire Tech 1 squad a workout, 12 players see- ing action. All-High Tony Di- Chiacchio of the Trainers was ‘high with 15 points. John Kelly was high for the Tonies with 13. Another team that apparently has straightened itself out is Fairfax. The Rebels won their second straight, 70-35. over An- nandale. Durwood Register and Wilbur Moore controlled the boards as Ralph Boswell hit for 23 points. A goal by Lloyd Murphy with two seconds remaining gave Spingarn a 56-55 victory over Mackin. Murphy wound up with 24 points, high for his team. Bill Hogan was high for Mackin with 18. Butch Brown scored 20 points to lead High Point to a 52-38 win over Wheaton, the third in five starts for the new Maryland school. Damascus won its third straight without loss, 36-28, over Middletown. Bethesda-Chevy Chase romped over DeMatha, 81-36, running up a 28-4 first quarter lead. George Welcker, playing only the first ; quarter, scored 13 points for the Barons. Dave Melton had 14 for DeMatha. Damian Crane with 26 points paced Priory to a 57-42 victory ; over Bell. Bam Cheri was high for the Vocats with 18 points. George Washington, with All- j Metropolitan Doug Yates scoring j 25 points, defeated the Alumni, j 74-59. Mike Agee of the varsity j was next high with 17 points. Northwestern defeated its Alumni, 69-50, as Jerry Brogdon j of the varsity led the way with j 22 points. Oxon Hill won its fifth straight, 61-49. over Laekey of j Indian Head as Sonny .Piper | scored 18 points to lead the win- j ners. . I Mount Vernon High'kept pace with James Monroe of Char- lottesville until the last few min- utes of the game but went down to am opening-game defeat, 56- i 61.

BEST FOOT FORWARD—Tad Weed (left) of Ohio State and Sam Tsagalakis (right) of South- ern California, who will do the place-kicking for their respective teams in the Rom Bowl game, put on an impromptu act with 17-year-old Margie Wood of Oakland at Ohio State’s hotel in Pasadena. Weed kicked 23 of 24 conversions and added a field goal to score 26 points for the Buckeyes this year, while Tsagalakis kicked 16 out of 26 extra points and booted two field goals for 22 points. Two tie games in one league match is an unusual occurrence. On such occasions it’s also un- usual for one team to win both rolloffs. But when one team wins both, yet loses the match, that’s truly noteworthy. It happened in the Ana- costia Spill- way Major league.

Ole Min Halls Drills, Starts 6-Day Holiday By Mm Associated Press OXFORD. Miss.. Dec. 22. Mississippi’s football squad start- ed a six-day holiday today after extending its Sugar Bowl prac-: tice sessions three days longer j than Navy, which, quit for the! holidays last Friday. The Rebels will re-assemble at Biloxi on December 27, and re-' main there through the 30th. Coach Johnny Vaught looked back on the December practice sessions, which included eight heavy workouts, and said he was pleased with the over-all show- ing. Pro Football (Continued From Page C-l.) Billy Wells bt Michigan State, voted the team’s outstanding player, got oil the season’s long- est run from scrimmage, 89 yards. Jack Scarbath was ninth in passing, completing 44 of 109 : for 799 yards and seven touch-) downs. A1 Dorow was 11th with j 70 completions in 139 throws for 997 yards and tight touch- 1 downs. Passers are ranked by average gain per attempt. i Charlie Justice ranked eighth in punting with a 40.9-yard av- erage. and Joe (Scooter) Seudero was 10th in punt returns. A had swept a match with Eyres Pharmacy. Instead, they had lost, 2-1. A check revealed that New- man <& Stetson had drawn one pin too much handicap, an error due to the use of a sub- stitute. The supposedly tied games turned out to be one-stick victories for Eyres Pharmacy. ** * * When the Rex Engravers rolled 2,091 November 30 for a season record in the District Major League, they took a bit of ribbing because the big set was rolled on home lanes, at Takoma. But the Engravers returned the laugh last night when they shot 2,056, at the Spillway, for second high of the season. With games of 667, 689 and 700. Rex swamped Saveway Sur- plus. Gene Hargett rolled 444 for Rex; John Mandes, 489; Bill Moore, 397; Rocco Nocero, 397, .and BiU King, the team’s spon- sor subbing for Jimmy Carroll, a busy photographer, 379. However, the most conspicuous performers last night were Bill Stalcup. Glebe Radio captain, and Larkin Weedon of Standard Auto Body Works. With both traveling at a record pace in a race for the individual title, Stalcup fired a 409 to boost his average to 132-8 for 47 games. Weedon shot 407 to shove his figure to 131-35 for 48. Guy Andes of Saveway rolled 375 and slipped a little to 130-8 for 48. Burdette’s Shell Service, fea- turing Bill Chisarick’s 405 and Bob Hynek’s 402, scored the only sweep,, over Skeet’s Bar.

Sandwiched between the drills was a camera session with news- men. Obesrvers said the squad is much different from that of last season—more overall speed this year and not quite so much beef. Dr. Eddie Anderson of Holy Cross, head coach, immediately worked Leroy Bolden of Michi- gan State, Bob McNamara of Minnesota and Pullback George Breeder of lowa in one baek- field combination with Ralph Guglielmi of Notre Dame, All- America quarterback. Although Guglielmi was the. center of attention, Don Bailey. ! Perm State quarterback, looked! the equal of'the Notre Dame! star yesterday. k Fights Lost Night ass.

The University of Washington Outdoors ¦with Bill Leotch « It pays to bust loose oil the trail once in a while and do something on a hunch. Even if it doesn't pan out you haven't lost much and when the biipefo clicks, it is a great feelingr This happened to Grady Putnam and Raleigh Hilderbrand last Saturday. They had no duck blind from which to shoot, but on a hunch put a sow docoys off shore at Bfll Leetck. the Neeald Estate below Chesa- peake Beach an the bay. Grady said the ducks started to decoy before they had their stool set. They hurried ashore and built a half-way sort of screen out of brush and driftwood, but whether they remained con- cealed or not the ducks kept piling in. Needless to say they both got their limits and had the best morning of duck hunt- ing they’ve had in years. Most were bluebills, widgeon and a few buflleheads. Our son, Bill. jr.. with whom we were shooting on Spesutle Island at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md., a couple of weeks ago, had a similar experience last Wednesday. He was Shoot- ing from a blind and not having too much luck. However, he no- ticed occasional flocks of geese trading across a point some dis- tance away. So, leaving his com- panions in the blind, he walked down the shore and standing under a clump of trees, knocked down his limit of geese in short order. Most of us have had the same sort of experience during our shooting careers. We’ll never forget the time that on a club hunt, turning down a so-called “proven” deer stand for one of our own choosing on a hunch, we killed the only buck among the 31 other hunters on the drive. So if you have a hunch and it is safe for your companions for you to follow it, don’t hesitate a minute. Os course, if your companions ob- ject and you see it will upset the friendship of even one of them, pass it up. Nothing so trival is worth losing a friend. ** * * The Washington Chapter of Izaak Walton League, at their election meeting last week, de- cided the past year had been so pleasant and successful that they returned to office all the incumbent officers. Fred O’Rourke is again president, William Palmer, vice president: George Gordon, secretary: Phil Pratt, recording secretary, and Lou Gramlich, treasurer. A couple of members of the i Atlas Hot Stove league, who were not able to stana the pressure, decided to go Ashing somewhere. They journeyed' down toward the headwaters of South River last week, where the river is narrow and runs under the new Annapolis Highway. The perch were not there as they’d hoped nor were the pike, although they saw a few of each species which would take no bait’. However, in the narrows of the river, the bottom was literally covered with small cat- fish, most of which ran under 10 inches. The water was very clear and the flsh were plainly j visible and so thick they could have hit them with an oar. They went back the next day and found the catfish still there in swarms, and succeeded in dip- j netting all they wanted, which they brough home and distrib- uted to friends.

Keith Bulen said today he has sworn statements from three forma: amateur boxers that promoters "fixed” two TV fights and used a “ringer” in an Indianapolis Golden Gloves championship. Bulen is making a prolonged investigation into operations of Eugene (Tiny) Bland, 35. and Norb Updike, 34. who have pro- moted weekly amateur fights over Indianapolis Station WFBM-TV for three years. Bland and Updike were charged with child abuse Saturday after Bulen and police confiscated gambling equipment and a switchblade knife in Bland’s gym. The TV station suspended the program pending the outcome of the charges. Both promoters have denied any wrongdoing. The deputy prosecutor said a 16-year-old made a sworn state- ment that he won three fights in the 1953 Indianapolis Golden Gloves tourney. He said Bland, who managed a team, ordered hi mto step aside and let an- other boy use his name in the finals, and the other boy won under the alias. Bulen said the 16-year-old swore he was ordered by Bland to “take a dive” in one of the TV fights and was paid “$5 «x- | tra” for his trouble. An il-year- ! old told of hearing Bland in-1 struct another boy to flop when! he was hit, Bulen said. The deputy prosecutor said two boys related that the stand- ard fee in the TV “amateur” show was $5 for winners and $3 for losers. The promoters are to be ar- raigned in Juvenile Court Jan- uary 5. Names of all boxers involved have been withheld because they are juveniles. Kurtz Rides Triple MIAMI, Dec. 22 (A 3 ).—Jockey! J. Kurtz rode three winners at! Tropical Park yesterday.

With the exception of Sheet- . fer. a junior, this is the last year for Waller’s regulars. As if to I show it means business, the squad has been alternating with the junior varsity in practicing as early as 7- o'clock in the morning. ** ** "In previous years,” Wallet explained, “the girls had the gym in the late afternoon and we had to practice at night, which meant , the players, who still had {lome- twork to wrestle with, were too ’late getting home. Then we ' shared the gym in later years with the jayvees. but that also proved unsatisfactory.’’ j “Now we alternate with the j jayvees. We take an early shift : and the jayvees a late afternoon j practice. Then, after a week or ! so. we change over,” he added. Waller hopes the Rebels’ ; spirit and added confidence this season will give them their first Northern District title. “We’ve never won the Group I basketball championship,’’ he said. “Most every year we’ve more or less been trampled on/ Maybe this year we can do some trampling of our own.” ** * * The Rebels already have one more victory in league competi- tion this season than last, when they lost all eight. They defeated Falls Church, 60-48, last Friday. It was a marked improvement over the opener against George Mason, when the Rebels failed to control the boards and went down to a 70-5.) defeat. Waller juggled his Uneup against Falls Church with the result that the towering Walker took charge of the rebounds and Register, with plenty of assistance from his teammates, scored 20 points. “It was a gratifying game,” Waller said afterward. “I hope the boys continue to show the aggressiveness they displayed the other night in future games, par- ticularly In the league. If they do we’ll make a few of these clubs take notice.” B#B Immi. Northern Virginia titlists, appear to have superior material, this could be the year In which Fair- j fax blossoms forth as a strong ! contender. Coach Ed Waller has eight i players better than 6 feet, six; of whom should see considerable action. “This bunch has been nursed 1 along for the last two or three years,” Waller said. “If they are ever going to hit a peak, this is the year.” A former player at Maryland | under Burton Shipley, Waller, also track coach at Fairfax, is putting in his fourth season in charge of varsity basketball. ** * * The big boys are Durwood Register, 6-foot-4; Capt.

Volts Hope Good Start'WillLead to HappierEnding This Season

By Bob HansonChamberlain High, off to a

good start in basketball this sea-son, hopes it doesn’t run into thebuzz saw that cut it down lastyear.

The Volts have won threestraight after dropping theiropener to Carroll. No. 3 was a55-42 defeat of Falls Church lastnight on the loser’s court. Cham-berlain now can sit back and re-flect on how to maintain a win-ning pace in the InterhighLeague. It meets Eastern in oneof four games January 7.

It will be remembered by highschool fans how Chamberlainwas rocking along on an eight-game winning streak last yearuntil competition became keenerin league play. The Volts woundup with a 12-6 season record,considerably better than in prev-ious years, but only two of thewins were in the league.

It pays to bust loose oil thetrail once in a while and dosomething on a hunch. Even ifit doesn't pan out you haven'tlost muchand when thebiipefo clicks,it is a greatfeelingr Thishappened toGrady Putnamand RaleighHilderbrandlast Saturday.They had noduck blindfrom which toshoot, but ona hunch put asow docoysoff shore at Bfll Leetck.

the Neeald Estate below Chesa-peake Beach an the bay. Gradysaid the ducks started to decoybefore they had their stool set.They hurried ashore and builta half-way sort of screen outof brush and driftwood, butwhether they remained con-cealed or not the ducks keptpiling in. Needless to say theyboth got their limits and hadthe best morning of duck hunt-ing they’ve had in years. Mostwere bluebills, widgeon and afew buflleheads.

Our son, Bill. jr.. with whomwe were shooting on SpesutleIsland at Aberdeen ProvingGround, Md., a couple of weeksago, had a similar experiencelast Wednesday. He was Shoot-ing from a blind and not havingtoo much luck. However, he no-ticed occasional flocks of geesetrading across a point some dis-tance away. So, leaving his com-panions in the blind, he walkeddown the shore and standingunder a clump of trees, knockeddown his limit of geese in shortorder.

Most of us have had the samesort of experience during ourshooting careers. We’ll neverforget the time that on a clubhunt, turning down a so-called“proven” deer stand for one ofour own choosing on a hunch,we killed the only buck amongthe 31 other hunters on thedrive. So if you have a hunchand it is safe for yourcompanions for you to follow it,don’t hesitate a minute. Oscourse, if your companions ob-ject and you see it will upset thefriendship of even one of them,pass it up. Nothing so trival isworth losing a friend.

Ex-Amateur BoxersAccuse PromotersOs Fix, Using Ringer

By IN PrtsiINDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 22.

Deputy Prosecutor L. KeithBulen said today he has swornstatements from three forma:amateur boxers that promoters"fixed” two TV fights and used a“ringer” in an IndianapolisGolden Gloves championship.

Bulen is making a prolongedinvestigation into operations ofEugene (Tiny) Bland, 35. andNorb Updike, 34. who have pro-moted weekly amateur fights overIndianapolis Station WFBM-TVfor three years.

Bland and Updike were charged

with child abuse Saturday afterBulen and police confiscatedgambling equipment and aswitchblade knife inBland’s gym.The TV station suspended theprogram pending the outcome ofthe charges.

Both promoters have deniedany wrongdoing.

The deputy prosecutor said a16-year-old made a sworn state-ment that he won three fights inthe 1953 Indianapolis GoldenGloves tourney. He said Bland,who managed a team, orderedhi mto step aside and let an-other boy use his name in thefinals, and the other boy wonunder the alias.

Bulen said the 16-year-oldswore he was ordered by Blandto “take a dive” in one of theTV fights and was paid “$5 «x- |tra” for his trouble. An il-year- !old told of hearing Bland in-1struct another boy to flop when!he was hit, Bulen said.

The deputy prosecutor saidtwo boys related that the stand-ard fee in the TV “amateur”show was $5 for winners and $3for losers.

The promoters are to be ar-raigned in Juvenile Court Jan-uary 5. Names of all boxersinvolved have been withheldbecause they are juveniles.
