1TOPPERS IN GOOD SHAPE FOR COMING CONTEST
IBrookLand BOYS
| Team Flashes
POwer

The Brookland Boys Club eleven
is stepping out these days and is
bowling over opposition with ease.
The team has collected Ill points in
four games, swapping st. Joseph's
$40, last Sunday. The opponents
have yet to cross the Brookland goal.
Regular football equipment, such
as cleated shoes, pants. shoulder
pads, hip pads, etc, are lacking. A
few of the players sport headgears.
Old clothes are mostly worn, yet this
team has proved the contention that
fiashy uniforms don't make the
player or team.
This Brookland Boys Club gridirOn
juggernaut numbers a covey of
clever, young gridsters. A few of
the stars are the Facchina brothers,
FRANKIE, Flanagan, Halter, Moran and
Mccarthy. These lads will bear
watching when they add weight and
years.

BASKETERS
VORKO

While seven other players started
training activities in New York
City, the band of holdouts of the
Washington American Basketball
League Club last night brought
upon themselves the penalty of IN
definite suspension from league
participation for failure to sign
their contracts within the limit.
Thus WashingtOn's pro court
team will lose the services of
Harry RicOnda. Stretch Meehan,
Roger COOney, Bob GrOdy and
John COnaty. Owner Marshall
ordered them TO sign by No
vember Z. the official date for
start of training, and they re.
manned firm in their refusal to
the last. Differences over
salary terms formed the bone
of contention.
Having to organize a team minus
such stars as those under suspen-
sion, Manager Ray Kennedy will
find his job a tough one. He has
three other fine basketers besides
himself-Saunders, Ripley and Pas
son-but whether he can find A
fifth man good enough to balance
the team is question.
Then. too, to add to his worries,
he has an extremely small reserve
squad, numbering only three
rockies, Chizmadia. Baesman and
Weiss.
