 CLAIM HOOP CROWN

The crack North End Spartans basketball team, coached by Lou Chestone, proved themselves to be of championship caliber during the past season winning many games while losing 10 and thereby claim the city junior championship, of which they are rated as the best in the junior competition.
 The Spartans were recently de- feated in the finals of the Boys club Naugatuck valley tourney by the St. Thomas Holy Name five, a team much more experienced and out of the Spartans class. During this tourney one of their players, Jackie Chick" Bannon was all tourney forward and leading scorer in the club tourney.
 Among their victims during the past campaign were: Press Club, Washington Hill Varsity, West Side Jrs. twice, Centrals, North End Tig- CTS, Town Plot Indies, Bombers and many others. Jackie Bannon was also top scorer of the team with Smiling Tom Culinan coming in second.
 Coach Lou Chestone depended on the following players: Capt. Eddie Lowe, Jackie Bannon Tom Cullinan, Jimmy Roach, Al Chestone, Joe and Al Began, Eddie Jackson, Joe Gall lagher, Moe Buell. and Ship John son. Eddie Jackson was manager of the team and Meathall and Howie Humphrey were mascots.

PITT TRACKSTERS
 STANDOUT ATPENN

Philadelphia, April 29 - UPo - The 3,OO0-odd track and field ath- letes competing in Penn's 45th an- nual relay carnival joined today in chant so familiar to the nations gridirons. It was:
 "Stop Pittsburgh"
 But from the way Johnny Wood- ruff and his teammates performed yesterday on a rain-soaked track it looked as though the drive would be in vain. Without extending them selves the Golden Partners took two major relay titles, and were over whelming favorites to cop two more today.
 A sophomore streak of lightning, Lawrence Tregoning, gave Pitt the quarter mile relay title. Trego- ming started well behind the field for the final lap and not only re- covered lost ground but won going away.
 Then the Partners called upon their colored star when it came time to defend their sprint medley relay and although he started on the final half mile leg poor fourth, he came up fast and was 40 yards in front at the finish.

FENSKE, B0RICAN
 TRY FOR RECORDS

Des Moines, Ia., April 29 = (UP) Two former collegians, Charles Fenske of Wisconsin and John Bor- ican of Virginia State, shoot for a new worlds record today in a spe- cial 1,00O-yard race featuring the 30th annual Drake University re- lays.
 Borican turned in the fastest time ever recorded for the distance 2:08.8-during the Knights of Co., lumbus games at New York last win ter, but he did not receive official recognition because of a faulty start. Fenske has few peers among the na- tion's distance runners. He won the 1000 yard race here a year ago in 2:10.7, just one second under the un- official world record.
 If yesterdays performances were any criterion-three records were broken and one was tied-virtually all of the relays records were en- dangered.

NEW YORK GAELIC
 SQUAD

New York, April 29-The first official trial of the all-New York squad for the international matches with Kerry and Galway will take the form of an exhmibition game Sunday afternoon at Innisfail park. The selected squad will face com- bined Gaelic Athletic association team chosen from the local Cork and Galway clubs. Tryout rules will be in effect. Both sides will be per- mitted to make unlimited substitu- tions, in contrast with the interna- tional rule which permits replace ment only when a player is seriously injured.
 Manager Leo Sullivan, in complete charge of the New York squad, pro- poses to have his entire first lineup chosen by the end of next week, when practice will begin daily. AL though it has been decided that the New York team will face both Gall way, the all-Ireland champion, and Kerry, final round opponent, the dates are still unsettled.
