Howard Campbell, recognized as
the leading styllst of the city and
an authority on bowling, has this
to say about ground work essentials:
Accuracy is the keystone for sue.
cessful bowling, speed is secondary.
Bowlers should first strive for ac-
curacy, and to obtain accuracy,
delivery of the ball on the alley is
all-important.
"a three-step approach is best.
Don't grip the bali too tightly and
lay it down smoothly on the alley
don't throw it. For a right-hand
bowler / would say that the best
place to start his ball is from the
near center~~of the alley so that he
has an equal chance of crashing
into the one-two or one.three pocket.
If his individual style of ball calls
for it, the ball can be started from
either the right center or left center
side of the alley, depending whether
he throws a straight or curve ball.
"a spinning ball works better once
it hits the pine, and If a bowler uses
a hooking ball or a straight spinning
ball, he should adopt and follow a
standard starting spot where he will
obtain the greatest success, which
he can soon learn from experimental
ton.

RAD|CE HIS
IDEAL As
PLAYER
BY George A. Simpson

BY george A. simpson
"I've handled some classy
basketers during my five years
at Maryland University" de-
clared H. Burton Shipley, the
Terrapins' coach, "but the five
best were Buddy Ensor, Jack
Faber, Donald Ham" Adams,
Leland Caldwell and Julie
Radice.
They would give me a we'll
balanced team in all departments
and could hold their own in any
company Each was accurate in
goal tossing and seldom permitted
their man" to get behind them.
"Ensor and Faber would be
placed at forwards with Adams
Radice i'm guard. Faber and
Radice could alternate in an
emergency case.
Shipley, who also coached the
basketball team Of Delaware Uni
versity five years before taking
charge at College Park, cited Julie
Radice, of the 192S-29 Quint, as his
ideal basketer.
"Radice is a finished courtman,"
expressed the Maryland coach, "and
one of the best I've seen. He is a
marvellous passer, shooter, floor man
and handler of the ball. The
trouble this year was that slow
players and those who didn't know
how or when to cut" made him
look foolish on passes. Radice
would make a pass under the
basket and ofttimes none was there
TO receive the ball.
"Faber, present fresh man
basketball coach out here, was
another brilliant and smart
player. His best ability was in
his knack to dribble. Ere.
quently he would dribble through
the opposing side to score.
foil the defense by his meve.
ments. An unerring eye was
another of his qualities.
'Ensor, I would say, was prob
ably the quickest shot of all. He
lost no motion whatever in loosing
the ball with hardly any wrist
movement at all. In this, he is
similar to Joey Schaaf, Pennsyl-
Vania University ace. Greater was
Ensor as team player, electing
to pass up a fairly good shot to
give a mate the ball"
Spectators were ignorant of the
value of Donald Ham" Adams,
Maryland's giant center. Shipley
characterized him as indispensable,
although his speed was slowed by
extreme bulk and height.
adams was one of those
awkward looking players to the
unframed eye," stated Shipley,
but he was hard man to
check under the basket. Here
he brought his height int"
play, taking rebounds or reach
was brainy and dependable on
the defense. Nor was Adams
flashy player i'm the fans esti-
nation. but more than once
proved his value.
Iceland Caldwell was one of the
headiest and steadiest players I've
taken in charge. Elusive and fast,
he was a tireless worker and ran
his opponents into a state of near
exhaustion Defensively. he was
the best as he could take care of
two men better than any I've seen" "
OF exceptional note is that Faber
Caldwell and Radice learned their
basketball under Charlie Guyon. of
Eastern, while Adams gained his
fundamentals at Tech High Radice
is the only member of the 192s.29
accorded a high distinction by his
coach.
