Bernstein can take punch very

able against a guy like Mamakoso,

LATTICE OF ELBOWS
Matt Twomey, Steve's manager,
has an idea the Greek is better
than Glen Lee. But We'll tip off
Matt now that meeting Lee Is
one of the harder methods Of
hemstitching the face. Bernstein
has a peculiar style Of fighting,
countering and hitting at the

cause most of the boys in the
ring today do one thing or the
other and never both at the same

Tootsie hides his face behind
a lattice of elbows and he looks
like a guy trying to fight his way
out of a fishing net. Thus some

DUCKPIN VETS

With Howard Campbell an
nouncing that he will shoot to-
night for the Charlie Olive Super
Dub Sweepstakes championship,
the field of more than so ptnmen
participating in the fifth annual
seven game event at Queen Pin
is likely to be made up of several
more of Capital maplespillers
who once could heave a mean
duckpin ball.
Campbell, out of big-time bowl
ing this season, was a recent
money winner in the Margaret
Lynn Stakes at Arcadia. His
average under 113 in the Amer
ican Legion League makes him
eligible.
Dave Singer, the defending
champion, also, is likely to have
Jack Whalen, the former Conven-
ton Hall ace, as a rival for his
crown.
Maybe if AL Work, another Hall
man of yesteryear could find a
loose five spot he too would be an
entrant. AL was rolling for liz
average in the Northeast Temple
Major League from last reports.
Joe Mulroe, who captained the
Convention Hall team when Work
and Whalen were members, might
take another stab at the cham.
pionship. He made a strong bid
last year, finishing just out OF the
money.

WESTERN QUINT
BIDS FOR SECOND.
IN SERIES.
BY PAUL BEACH

After trailing through the first
two and most of the third quar-
ter, Western gained the first leg
on a tie for second place when it
pulled up to top Roosevelt, 27-18,
in the nightcap of the last double
header of the interhigh basketball
series at Tech gym yesterday. The
Red Raiders will seek a victory
over Wilson's Presidents next
Tuesday in the series finale, to
share second berth with the Rough
Riders.
Central's much battered forces.
aided by the outstanding work Of
John Tanning who scored IT
points, went to work with ven
geance to assuage their previous
defeat by wilson's quint, when
they topped the green-jerseyed
lads, 38-31, in the opener OF last
nights twin bill.
FIRST VICTORY
It was their first taste of victory
in 10 starts and apparently it was
sweet, because once they were un-
der way there was no stopping
them.
AS one excited Central fan was
heard to say:
I'VE are thirsting for victory"
Unless the Presidents down
Westerns basketeers in the last
game, which isn't likely, the Gen.
tralites will share the cellar crown
with last nights losers.
In the first game, Western
seemed to be Stymied in its at
tack until the latter part Of the
game. However, when the Raid
ers hit their stride, they went
on to win handily.
Len Stanton and Bob Custer,
with nine and eight points re-
spectively, were best for the win
nerS, while George West topped
the Riders with six tallieS.
RACE SCORERS
John Tanning, with II markers,
was far and away ahead Of the
scoring field In the first tilt. Lewis
Mckinney, however, proved the
error of keeping him on the bench
by tallying seven points in rapid
order ,.fter he was sent into the
fray, and then went on to add
one more point to his final rating.
Dave Maloney and Charles Finley
e. III scored eight points for VIII"
son.
