THE TIMES RECORD, TROY, N. Y., WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 4, 1939.

« Once upon a time Barney Sedran was toasted as the best Small basketball player in the world.

A member of Bill Heppinstall's Albany State League quin­tet, which also included Harry Riconda, Marty Friedman, Leo Duval and "Honey" Russell, among others, Sedran was a play­er to be feared despite his five feet, five inches in height and weight of about 140 pounds, soaking wet.

Minus some of the hair which used to fairly wave iri the breeze as he sped up and down the Bolton Hall court in the easily recalled Troy-Albany clashes and mellowed a bit by the passing years, Barney is being toasted again—this time as a coach. His latest performance is perhaps his best. He has turned in a job with Kingston's Colonials second to none in the league. With the addition of only Fliegel, last year's captain and center at CCNY, Sedran, the Kingston coach, has lifted a chronic loser to a spot where it now is tied with Philadelphia for the league lead.

Last year as Kate Smith's Celtics, the Kingston club couldn't get into the first division. To give Pete Barry credit, he had a lot of young boys just out of college to work with.

Sedran got them when they had a year of pro ball together. He has whipped them into a combination which is playing the best ball in the league at this time. On the face of its game against Troy Monday night when it put on a sizzling passing attack, the club looms as the one to beat for the 1938-39 championship.

Tomorrow night the Colonials play an exhibtion game with the Akron club at Kingston. Paul Nowak and Johnny Moir are scheduled to play with the visiting club and there is talk that Nowak might be signed then and there by Kingston. If Kingston does line up the former Notre Dame star, it will be unbeatable.

Fiiegel isn't the worst center in the league. In fact he may prove to be the best if he continues to be used as a regular. But this boy Nowak can play with anybody for my money.

Perhaps Washington's victory over Brooklyn Monday night will give Joe Dreyfuss a permanent berth as manager of the Heurichs. After trying for weeks to land Joe, Chris Heurich, jr., announced that the former Barons' pilot had been hired solely on trial.

Against Troy here last week, Dreyfuss' authority was ques­tioned many times, it seemed to me. Mickey Schoniield, vet­eran of the Washington club and its leading scorer, appeared to disagree often. Kweller, the giant center who was removed from the game when an injured knee began to bother him, kept motioning to Dreyfuss to return him to the game which Joe finally did.

1 don't like to see demonstrations of that kind. Coaches are employed to direct the ball clubs and thev should be the sole bosses. I don't say a coach shouldn't be open to sug­gestions. But one who lets players so openly flaunt his au­thority isn't lively to hang on very long. It's too bad in this particular case. Dreyfuss is a tfkeable chap who would make good if he had a foothold. He had only Brown and Shuck-man to work with at Wilkes-Barre. He has Schonfield at Wash­ington.

Supporting an article appearing here several col­umns ago is Elmer Ripley's statement that the greatest basketball player the world has ever known was Jack In-glis, late Troy star.

Ripley, formerly with the Original Celtics and now coach at Georgetown, was quizzed by a student sports edi­tor and the interview published in "The Hoya," George­town publication:

"Who is the greatest player you have; ever seen," Ripley was asked. This was his reply:

"I would say a fellow named Jack Inglis, who played with the Troy, N. Y., team after he left Rensselaer Poly. Boy, how that fellow could go! He did everything right, but his brilliant career was ended by the war. Since the ws r, Holman and Beckman are in a class all of their own."

Another question put to Ripley and his answer should in­terest you. It went like this: "You've seen Hank Luisetti play; how does he compare with Holman and Inglis?" The reply:

"To tell you the truth, I liked that fellow named Stoeffen better than Luisetti on the Stanford team, but neither could com­pare with Inglis or Holman. Those fellows were offensive stars, defensive giants and besides could direct a basketball team like a quarterback. That reminds me of one of my pet peeves against the game as it is today . . . everybody, players as well as coaches, want to score points and they are forgetting about the fellow who knows how to set up plays and hit the spot with his passes. It would be a good idea if teams would adopt the system of scoring assists, as in baseball, for those players who aid in making a goal possible."

Ripley's last remark brings to mind the part Mack . Posnack plays with the Troy team.

Every time a college ball player around New York •hows signs of being a good passer, his name immediately is linked with Posnack who, as a member of St. John's Wonder Five, was passer, field general and player, all in one. He wasn't a big scorer then, any more than he is today.

At St. John's now, they have a boy, Jack Garfinkle, whose greatest praise is that he is compared to Posnack. "The best since Mack did the heaving for our side," said one Brooklyn paper.

When he has somebody to toss that apple to, as we're all hoping he will, now that Stanton, Brown, Pojcha and Board-man are ready to go—under the hoop—Posnack will show you he is truly the "Davey O'Brien" of the basketball world.

After Monday's Sugar Bowl football game, you're well aware of what that is.

Ed Connors may make an announcement soon of a professional college doubleheader at the driusned. Man­hattan is sought as an opponent for Sienna, the new col­lege over at Loudonville that has done so well thus far this season. The college boys would play on the same bill with the pros.

HEREYKTERDAY Haymakers Tackle King­

ston Playing Best Ball in

Loop at Present T ime;

Leary New Barons Pilot. Fred "Cocky" Stanton, out of ac­

tion since November 30, will re­turn to the lineup of the Troy Hay­makers tonight when they face the Kingston Colonials at the State Armory at 9:30.

Stanton worked out with the boys at the State Armory yester­day afternoon at the conclusion of which he told Manager Carl Hueta he was ready to return to active duty. Stanton was in uniform here last Wednesday but was not used as he hadn't been working out. He has been in a Schenectady gym every day since then.

With Jimmy Brown throwing up basket after basket in a scrimmage, the Haymakers looked mighty fast in their workout. Hueta devoted a half hour to having Polcha, (correct spelling) Stanton and Brown cut for the basket while Posnack tossed the ball to them.

Husta declined to name his start­ing lineup. He was doubtful whether he would put Stanton in at the start.

Were "World Beaters." Hueta said that Monday night

in Kingston Barney Sedran's club was good enough to whip any bas­ketball team in the country. "The Original Celtics never looked any better," said Carl who should know for he played with the Celtics for three seasons.

The last time Kingston played Troy in an American League bas­ketball game at the State Armory the Colonials put on a last-minute rally to tie the' score and then won in an overtime period, 24 to 22, when "Chick" Reiser scored a field goal with only 47 seconds left to play.

That defeat at the hands of the Colonials was one of several nip and tuck games the Haymakers have lost this season. They dropped a two-point game to the Jewels in New York, a three-pointer at Phil­adelphia and a one-pointer to the Reds here, among others.

League statistics showing Troy, in its first 13 games had scored an average of 31.3 points per game while its opponents scored 31.7, in­dicate more clear! thai anything else could, how close a majority of the Trpy games have been.'

Scored 407 Points.

In its first 13 games, Troy scored a total of 407 points and its oppo­nents had 412. The Brooklyn Visi­tations, a position higher than Troy in the standings, scored 369 as against 388 for the opponents while Wilkes-Barre was 72 points behind its opponent* and Washington 67.

Kingston, tied for first at the present time, began its charge up the ladder in Troy Thanksgiving night when Nat Frankel tied the score at 22 all in the last minute and a half of play with a foul goal and then Reiser put on the clincher in the overtime period. Troy had led, 17 to 12, going into the final period but succumbed through too much fouling, a total of 22 penal­ties being called against the Hay­makers while Kingston wae called for 14.

Troy fans get their first peek at Pete Berenson in tonight's scrap. He was with the Original Celtics up until a week ago when he paid a $250 fine and rejoined the Kingston club. Carl Johnson, Bill Nash, Ben Kramer, Kaplan, Nat Frankel and Benny Fleigel, the latter the only addition to last year's club, are among the stars of the Kingston club.

The team still is controlled by Kate Smith but goes under the name of Colonials which was pop­ularized in Kingston by Frank "Pop"' Morganweck.

First Peek at Brown. Troy fans get their first peek at

Jimmy Brown In a local uniform. He was traded to Wilkes-Barre for Moe Dubilier Saturday.

In tonight's preliminary, which will get underway at 8:15, the Hay­makers Jrs., will play St. Paul's quintet of Mechanicville, numbering among its players Schofield, BaTt-nick, Kidwell and Patton, former Waterford High players. This game looms as the best prelimin­ary to date. It revives scholastic rivalries of one, two and three years ago.

The main game will be started at 9:30, a later starting time having been decided upon by Owner Con­nors to satisfy fans who found it impossible to make the 9 o'clock game.

BROWN SIGNS FOR YEAR, Pittsburg UP) — The Pittsburg

Baseball Club announced yesterday Pitcher Mace Brown had signed a on*-year contract for the 1939 sea­son. The salary was not disclosed.

Announcement was made today of the appointment of Dick Leary of Nanticoke, Pa., to manage the Wilkes-Barre Barons.

Leary was a star two decades ago and appeared here first with Utica. Later he played center for the Troy team at the old Armory. Ed Wachter was forward then and later succeeded Leary at the pivot post

Aliie Shuckman had been acting manager of the Barons since Jos Dreyfuss went to Washington.

BOSTON UP)—The Boston Bruins snapped the longest string of con­secutive victories the New York Americans have enjoyed during their 14 years in the National Hockey League when they edged Red Dutton's crippled forces, 2-1, before a crowd Boston Garden.

It was the Amerks' first setback in five games and the second one that the third-place club has suf­fered, also at the hands of the Bruins, in it's last nine games.

The action, due to the Bruins' recent heavy schedule demands, and the Americans' short-handed­ness was frequently ragged and sometimes slow. Four of Duttons' players are sidelined.

The home forces opened the scoring in the first period, while Wilf Field was serving a penalty, by putting on a power attack that ended with Eddie Shore setting up a goal for Bobby Bauer with a passout from the left corner.

Nets Stewart bounced a 30-foot tallying shot through Frankie Brimsek during the second period while the Boston goalie was watch­ing the fast-charging Tommy An­derson. The Boston "clincher" was provided by Roy Conacher eight minutes before the final bell, when he blasted home Jack Craw­ford's accurate assist from 15 feet outside.

Art Jackson, former Bruin, was Dutton's most efficient performer during the action. He centered for two lines and played both of the other forward positions during his many turns on the ice.

WHIZZER, THROUGH WITH GRID, SAILS TO START STUDIES

New York <*)—It Is a long jump from Wellington, Col., (Pop. 683) to ivied Oxford, slumbering by the placid Thames, for Byron Ray­mond White, the beau ideal of foot­ball players.

The whizzer sailed aboard the S. S. Europa at midnight for Eng­land and his Rhodes scholarship, "even Stephen" with football after a- four-month detour through the playing fields of the'National Pro­fessional Football League. He is, he says, through with big time football but it's too early to know how much he'll miss it.

"I guess I finished all even with the game," said Colorado's ail-American halfback of 1987 and the star rookie player of the pro game of 1938. "I had a lot of fun, but I did a lot of work. I got paid well. I have most of the $15,000 the Pittsburg Pirates gave me for the past season, but then I gave up certain things that I thought a lot of for football. One of them was a start on this scholarship."

There wasn't any truth to the reports he would come back in the fall for another try at the pro game?

"Gosh, not that I know of. They're always sending me some­where or having me do something else in the papers. But I guess I'm through. I'll never be able to repay football for the things it has done for me, but I have to get to work."

BY HENRY McLEMORE Los Angeles (UP)—While he

doubts his availability, Charles Howard, owner of Seabiscuit, is thinking of offering Paul White-man a job as assistant trainer of his American handicap champion.

It was band leader Whiteman, you remember, who reduced from graf zeppelin to blimp size in the short space of a year. So big on January of one year that Captain Hugo Eckner was eyeing him with a view of flying passengers on him to South America. Whiteman hit on a diet that almost put him in the stream-lined class.

Seabiscuit needs that diet Since he raced and beat War Admiral at Pimlico early in November, Sea-biscuit baa put on fifty pounds and shows no signs of quitting. A few more weeks and he will re­quire guessets in his harness. Al­ready he is showing signs of a double chin, which, come to think of it, might not be a bad addition for a horse in a photo finish. The 'Biscuit was beaten by less than the width of a double chin in two "hundred grand" races, once by Rosemont and once by Stagehand.

In explaining Seabiscuit's obesity at Santa Anita yesterday, Howard said it was due entirely to eating. Seabiscuit, it seems, is the Dia­mond Jim Brady of horseflesh. Let bis trainer turn his head, and the Biscuit has taken a light snack. Leave him alone for 10 minutes and he will go through a 10 course dinner. He plays no favorite in horse food. Next to eating, Sea-biscuit likes sleeping.

It is his ability to sleep under any and all conditions that makes him such a super traveler, going from track to track for his many engagements. Five minutes after he is put on a train the 'Biscuit rolls quitely over on his side and naps.

Howard said Seabiscuit, who ar­rived here a few days ago from South Carolina, was in pretty good shape save for his extra weight and a slight injury to his left fore­leg. He suffered a minor bruise when he banged himself in his Carolina stable, but it is nothing to worry about

I asked Seabiscuit's owner how much longer he planned to race the little fellow.

"That all depends on how he does in the big handicap," Howard answered. "If he should win i t I think we would retire him. That would make him far and away the biggest money winner of all time, and there wouldn't be much left for him to win. He proved he was the champion by his convincing win over War Admiral."

Howard isn't at all pleased over the weight of 134 pounds assigned the Biscuit by the Santa Anita handicapper. He considers it un­fair, and that 130 pounds would have been a much more sensible impost.

"Why should my horse be pen­alized because he is the best in the country?", Howard asked. "Weighing him down to where he can scarcely beat inferior horses, is just the same as giving some duffer golfer 300 strokes in the national championship and en­abling him to beat Sammy Snead or Ralph Guldahl. Any horse that Seabiscuit has to give more than thirty pounds to doesn't belong *in the handicap. He is just out there cluttering up the track for horses that really can run."
