Norman Artman Wins
HOnors In Two Sports /;
Praised By Phillies' Star
HurIers

Especial 10 The CITIZEN
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June 8.
Among the forty athletes hon
ored by the PIERCE School Varsity
Club this week for outstanding
performance on the athletic field
wa. Norman Artman, 1908 White
head street. Key West, Fla.
Artman played a prominent
part in the success of the schools
basketball and baseball teams dur
ing the past school year. In addi-
ton 20 his work on the court and
the diamond he was praised by the
faculty for outstanding leadership
in the schools social activities
In baseball the Florida lad ex-
eelled. He was the teams leading
batter, getting several home runs
and was noted for his distance
hitting. He was versatile, playing
four different positions on the
team coached by Tony AltOmare,
former Villa Nova College star
athlete.
The Key West lad appeared on
the mound in the early part OF
the season but was forced to re-
tire from pitching duty due to a
sore arm. His hurting was bril-
liant and won the praise of Bueky
Walters. the Phillies' right-hand
ace, who tutored Artman on sew
eral occasions.
His batting won the commenda-
| ton of Leo Norris and George
Scharein, the Phil's infielders. who
also watched him in action on
several occasions. The Phillies
requested Artman to appear at
Baker Bowl, this city, for several
workouts with the WilsoRites.
The Varsity Club, a traditional
Organization at the school. paid
Artman special honor at the an
nual reception recently and his
popularity was clearly established.
Norman Artman is the son of
L. P. Artman, publisher of The
Citizen. and Mrs. Artnnan.

One day last week, Mr.. Old
Bye Duke of Rock Sound was so
upset about the marriage of his
erstwhile king and his fair lady
that Mr.. Duke was unable to play
any kind of golf except the bad
kind and so he and Earl Julian
were sunk Il down by Charlie
Ketchum and Cookie Mesa. Mr..
Sands claims he was talked out
of that match, anyhow. So, gen
tie reader, you may rest assured
that Mr.. Old Bye was amongst
a bunch of takers if he lost.

Along the Long New England
 Sports Trail
By ERNEST BARCELLA

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 Boston, Jan. 18-(UP)-Hanging the Monday wash along the New England sports line:
 Thomas Austin Yawkey has cracked down on whispers that Joe Cronin gets paid to be player-i1lan- ager and not bench manager Of the Red Sox. Says Massa Tom: "Joe can manage the team from the inc field or from the bench. He's run ming the team and he doesn't have to play if he doesn't want to-. Which should settle the matter be- cause Yawkey only owns the Sox...
 On the Penacook, N. H., end Of the wire spoke Third-Baseman Rob- ert Abial (Red) Rolfe of the New York Yankees .. The red-head wanted it made clear he doesn't an- ticipate any contract troubles with his bosses. ."Of course" Rolfe said, T expect an inrease, but the club officials have always been very fair to me and I feel they'll give me raise of their own accord"...
 Next to Pinky Higgins, now Of the Red Sox, Rolfe is considered the best third sacker in the American league. Many think he's the tops Reds spending the winter refer eeing and coaching basketball around his home town.
 New England's most active pro- fessionaL fight club in 1936-the Valley A. A. of Holyke. Ran total of 38 boxing shows at the Valley arena last year..
 Assistant Coach Harry Downes of Boston college may get the North eastern football job vacated by Al Mccoy. .Downes was head grid man at B. 0. till Gil Dobie came along.
 Massachusetts just about cornered golf,s current "big name" market when National Open Champ Tony Manero was signed as pro at Salem Country club. Denny Shunte, the P. c. A. title-holder, is pro at Brae Burn. The National Amateur king, Johnny Fischer, is Bay State sum- mer citizen. and we also have Jug McSpaden. Jesse Guilford and Fran cis Ouimet. y'know...
 George Mahoney. goalie on the undefeated Harvard hockey team, IS son of John V. Mahoney, Cover nor Hurley's chief secretary Young Mahoney is the only goalie known to wear specs.
 Max Kaminsky of the Providence Reds owns 8 children's clothing store in Niagara Falls, Ont. Max went to Providence via the Boston Bruins and the Montreal Maroons. They've dug up another boxing John L. Sullivan. This time in New Haven. Couple weeks ago a young John L. also was uncovered in the Golden Gloves eliminations here. The local John L. is dis tant relative of the famous Boston Strong Boy," is an amateur and weighs 165. His New Haven name sage recently turned pro and scales 165. Might be good match some day..

NAUCATUCK MEETS HARDING OUTFIT

Naugatuck, Dec. 18-The Nauga- tuck High school basketball Ieam will this week meet Warren Hard- ing High of Bridgeport here We'd nesday night and Wilby of Water bury here Saturday.
 The locals suffered their second defeat of the season Saturday night when they were walloped 54-36 by Torrington High in a game played at the New City armory. This was the worst beating the Garnet has taken this year.
 Naugatuck could not get going until the second half and although it piled up IS points in the final quarter, the Torrington five had to much of lead.
 Broberg who starred for Torring- ton last year, again was the stand- out with p points. Anderson tailed 13 points for Naugatuck. The local Reserves brought home some con- solation for Naugatuck by trimming the Torrington Reserves 27-16 in the preliminary.
 In the main game Czaplicki who has been outstanding for Nauga- tuck thus far was held to a single foul goal and did not score a field goal.

WOOSTERS WIN. THREE CUSHION
 MEET FROM ELKS
Brother Bills Lose Billiard Matches By 565-5O7
 Score

The Wooster 12-man three cushion team took over the Elks team in their match game ending Saturday night winning by 58 points and taking 2 out of the 12 games.
 The match proved to be a hard fought one all the way but the Elks team seemed to be more handi- capped going from their popular size tables to the full size ones to the full size ones than the Wooster boys were changing from the big table to the small ones.
 It would be hard to pick out any outstanding star of the series but, some of the features were: the big gest upset, Cobb defeating Gearing 50 to 37; the closest game, Levowitz 50, Quilter 49; the best win, Decorso 50, Tobin 24. Professor James Graf ton, the manager and Hugo Lange, the captain of the Elks team were not disappointed but said they will start at once to build up for next years match and it is rumored that they have sent an offer to Willie Hoppe to come here to train their men.

TRIBUNES FACE 'H|LL' JUNIORS Basketball Battle Assured Tonight on w. F. C. C.
 Court

The Tribunes and Hill Juniors, keen rivals since the first basket ball game was played on the Wash ington Park Community house floor two years ago, will battle 1t out to- night in one of the senior league games scheduled. This classic will follow 8 preliminary in which the Community Club meets the Robins, starting at 8 o'clock.
 Difficulty certainly would be ex- preienced in picking winner in the Tribes-Hills game for in addi- ton to the fact they are evenly matched, man for man, they dis play that something extra when they meet. No more new players, other than those already register ed will be seen in action at the park court this season for the period for eligibility has closed. Johnny Mo- Cormack will referee both games.

 POOR, BOROUGH

Naugatuck Shop Team Drops 39-33 Verdict to
 Full Fashions
Special to the Democrat

Torrington, Jan. 18-Conversing on but nine of g foul tries proved costly to the U. S. Rubber Company basketball team at the state armory yesterday afternoon and the Full Fashions chalked up their seventh consecutive home victory and their ninth in IA starts, 39 to 8, in a fast game before small turnout of fans.
 Billy Hoysradt, diminutive but sharpshooting forward of the locals, was in exceptionally fine form and cut the nets for seven field goals and two complimentary awards to carry off individual scoring honors of the afternoon. Bob Gair and Dick Tuckey were the boroughites best bets.
 The Fashions made nine of 15 foul tries, Frank Beauty leading in this department with three in four attempts. Friday evening the locals will journey to Danbury to meet the Big Five of that town while next Sunday afternoon the Olympic Club of Waterbury will show here in return tussle.
