Versed in Athletics

High school athletic circles today
welcomed the addition of John
Jankowski, former Catholic U. ath-
lete and director of Central Branch
Boys Club of Washington, to the
physical education and coaching
staff of Central High School.
Jankowski fills the vacancy left
when Lynn Woodwork gave up his
physical education post to take
charge of cadets when Capt. Paul
Doerr, Central military instructor
was called to active duty. Jankow-
skis appointment right now is a
temporary one. but it almost is Ger
tain that it will be made permanent.
The former G.. U. star has been
candidate for high school post
for several years. Two years ago
he was second on the list, but only
one appointment was made. This
year he was fifth following another
examination. Three appointments
were made and another man on the
list dropped out to send Jankowski
to the top. Annual examinations
are scheduled for next Monday and
had Jankowski not been appointed
yesterday he would have had to take
the test again.
His exact coaching duties have not
been determined, but he is well
versed in all sports and should be
helpful in any branch he handles.

Second, Third
Baseball Contributes
Nine of rs Various
Mixups in Dope
By BILL BONI,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Dec l4-The prob
lem for today, students, goes as fol-
lows: Given an odds-on favorite
which finishes third, and what have
you?
The answer, of course, is the No.
/ disappointment of the year.
At least that is the answer sup
piled by the Nations sports editors,
who voted this doubtful honor in
the Associated Press poll to the
New York Yankees for finishing the
American League race back OF
Detroit and Cleveland.
NOtre Dame Second Worst.
While they were about 1t, the
editors decided to make it good and
decisive. So 40 out of 70 put the
Yanks right up on top and most
of those 40 didn't even bother to
name a second or third choice. All
together, the McCarthymen got l25
points-which, if they had been
runs, would have made this a diff
ferent story.
Since even the most one-sided
IdC6 llceOS d l lllAo NV ~
position fell to the lot OF Notre
Danes football team. The Irish
got So points-six more than in their
last five games-for their slump
from midseason mention as the
peer of Rockne's best to hardly any
mention at all.
Ohio State, another gridiron
power" that somehow got Short
circuited, was shaded only point
by Notre Dame. The Cleveland
Indians finished fourth, for reasons
of personal behavior, while Cor
nell's football-playing seniors got II
points for their late-season debacle
and Johnny Paycheck II for his
shadow-boXing against Joe Louis.
Nine Baseball Failures.
Baseball contributed nine out of
25 assorted disappointments, among
the others being Schoolboy Rowe's
failure to last three innings in his
two World Series appearances, Joe
Medwick's showing after his sale to
Brooklyn. and the New York Giants
birthplace finish in the National
League.
From other sports the experts
picked Welby Van Horn, 1889 United
States singles fnalist, in tennis;
Louis failure to sway the Negro
vote for Wendell Willkie; highly
touted Bimelech's flop in the Ken
lucky Derby, and the kayoes suf-
fered at the hands of Max Baer by
young Pat Comiskey and veteran
Tony Galento - knockouts which
already had won Baer several votes
for the years chief comeback.

Bound for two games against
tough opposition over the week end,
the Washington hockey Eagles rolled
north today, still topping the East
ern Amateur Hockey League, but by
a slender margin.
They will face the Skeeters at
River Vale. N j.. tonight, and will
clash at Madison Square Garden

10 per cent of the gross receipts to
go to The Evening Stars Christmas

The Eagles face tonight's clash
with the Skeeters Haunting a q
point margin over the Baltimore
Orioles, with whom they tied last
night in a hard-fought, roughly
contested overtime session at River
side Stadium. Deadlocked A at
the end of the regulation three 20
minute periods, they battled to 5-5
deadlock in a 10-minute overtime
session, with Jack Dyte, burly
Oriole defense man. scoring the tie
ing goal on a sleeper shot that
skidded between the legs of Eagle
Goalie Hemming for the tieing
counter, when Washington appar-
emily had the game sewed up. and
was freezing the puck to stop the
Oriole attack.
Record Crowd Sees 1t.
The Washington lads have won
II of Is games, for a total of %
points, with three losses and one tie.
Baltimore is second with 81 points,
including last nights tie. But Balti-
more has played one more game
than Washington.

crowd ever to see an ice hockey
clash in Washington, wildly enthu-
siastic throng of 4,082 paid custo-
mers, packed into 70 minutes of
hard play everything in hockey. The
only element lacking was the fist
fighting that slowed up the Eagle
Oriole clash of November 29 The
boys had been warned carefully
against any fist-tossing, and while a
couple of fights were started, they
quickly were stopped Some pug
nacious gent in the bleachers did
better, however. The ushers stopped
that one Baltimore had its gang
over, including leather lunged
Clarence" chief Oriole rooter, with
his noise machine and megaphone.
Washington jumped in front at
9.27 of fast first period when Norm
Burns took a pass from Wing Hal
Dewey and lit the red light. That
constituted all the scoring in that
period, and gave little evidence of
the Oriole avalanche to come.
The Orioles skated rings around
the Washington lads in the second
period, scoring on two shots by
Wing Spike Wychnenka and one by
Wing Carl Ripley, while holding the
Eagles scoreless. Baltimore left the
ice leading 81 and the Washington
cause appeared hopeless.
But the Eagles came back with an
overpowering attack in the third
chukker, with Burns counting at 40
