Late Coolidge Points
Beat Bulls, 40-34

Coolidge, rated as one of the top
contenders for the public high bas-
ket ball crown, was none too hot
when, as host. 1t won from Bulls
yesterday, 40-34.
Bulls has some good material but
went into the contest with only one
practice session and, under the cir
cumstances, put up surprising
fight.
Trailing only 11-12 at intermis-
sion, Bulls made it nip-and- tuck
affair and with two minutes left the
score stood 34-all. Then two goals
by Greenbaum, who had a total Of
20 points, and one by Lafferty
brought Coolidge the victory.
Coolidge hopes to do better when
it entertains Blair tomorrow. Bulls

Wilbur Moore, regular Redskin
right halfback, was to go to New
York with the squad today, but his
role in Sundays game against the
Giants will be as an adviser and
coaching aide. The flashing half
back who played such a prominent
part in the advance of the Skins
to the threshold of the Eastern
championship will not play. Badly
injured in the first New York game
December S, Wilbur has been fight

Giants Sunday he may play against

But DR.. Robert E. Moran, Redskin
physician, says Wilbur cannot play
Sunday without danger of perma-

Hubert and Maurie|Io
Among Ring Talent
To Appear Here

Gabe Menendez and Goldie Ahearn
have lined up some reputable fistic
talent for their shows at Turner's
next Monday and at Uline's Decem-
Der 27, respectively.
Ailearn has landed Tami Mauriello
Of New York, a contender for the
duration heavy crown, who last night
disposed of Mike Alfano of Newark in
st. Louis in the sixth of scheduled
l0-rounder. Mauriello will oppose
Herbert Marshall, Brooklyn Negro,
who was defeated by Joe Baski In
his last appearance here.
Menendez has matched Tee Hubert
former Georgian who has won nine
straight fights and has never lost
here, against Gene Buffalo, former
Philadelphia who now makes his
home in Washington.
Hubert is the accredited middle
weight champion of the District,
gaining the title by whipping John
Garner. Buffalo is we'll known to
local fans, particularly for his defeat
of Phil Furr several years ago.
One of Mauriello's priced victories
was over Lee Savold, scored at
time when the latter was being
hailed as conner among the big
fellows.
Neither Menendez nor Ahearn has
as yet arranged supporting bouts.

he will have two other eight

Dobbs, Recuperated, l.,
Ready 10 Go for
More Marks
By the Associated Press,

by tne ASSOcl&ted fretS.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Dec. 16.-I
Big Glenn Dobbs has knocked out
old man flue and returned to the
Randolph Field practice grind, ready
to bat out a flock of unofficial pass
ing records in the Cotton Bowl game
at Dallas
Glenn already has such marks as
seven touchdown passes in one game
20 scoring passes in 10 games and
90 competitions out Of 46 attempts
in one afternoon.
Now he's aiming at records boasted
by Davey O'Brien of Texas Chris
tian. Bud Schwenk OF Washington
University (St. Louis and frankie
Sinkwich of Georgia.
Two Marks Appear Doomed.
Here's Dobbs' season record: 189
passes, 105 competitions for 1402
yards, completion average Of 555-
plus, and total ofIense 1928 yards.
Oklahoma Glenn almost is certain
to break two records and couple of
others are in grave danger.
Dobbs will need only 10 compile
tons to crack Schwenk's mark of ia
per season, and, with Sc yards gained
in the air, can smash the record of
l.457 yards in season held by
.O'Brien and Schwenk.
OBrien has the highest percentage
in pass completions-557 Dobbs is
less than two points behind that.
Sinkwich's Record Tough.
The record for total passes thrown
Is 234, made by OBrien and
Schwenk. Glenn will need 46 throws
to smash that-the same number he
tried against the North Texas Aggies
this year.
In total offense Dobbs would have
to do some tall stepping, because
Sinkwich rolled up 2.187 yards. That
would mean a gain of 1854 yards for
Glenn against Texas.
But to those who have seen the
great Dobbs perform this year that
doesn't appear impossible.

As Adviser and Coaching Aide

up their University OF Maryland
training base.
Many Redskins have been work.
ng at defense jobs. and their prac-
tlce sessions have been skimpy for
more than two months. In other
years the Redskins held longer daily
workouts.
The Giants may not be at full
strength, while the Skins will be
improved physically over the crew
which fell before the New Workers
last Sunday. Charlie Avedisian, a
power in the Giant line, suffered a
shoulder separation Sunday and
End Frank Liebel. who scored one
OF the Giant touchdowns after
taking a pass, came up with &

Sunday.
The Redskins. while improved
physically, still will miss Moore and

In the meantime, the Chibears are

means better gate. and in addition
are worrying about their long layoff

2-Under-Par Score
Seen Good Enouqh
For Miami Win
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MIAMI, Fla, Dec. 16.-General
Chairman H. H. Arnold looked over
the field Of 116 who began competi-
ton in the Miami Open golf tourna-
ment today and predicted that the
man who could shave two strokes of
par for the 72-hole grind probably
would win.
A score Of 278 would not be bril-
liant in this event which Sammy
Snead won in 1887 with 267. Byron
Nelson was the victor in 1910 with
a 271 and jug McSpaden took the
top prize last year with 272.
But Snead is In the armed services
and Nelson and McSpaden were un-
able to participate.
Under the circumstances Arnold
thinks his prediction Is a good one
and there are some who think he is
over-optimistic.
In fact, oldtimers recall that Gene
Sarazen won the event in 1880 with
a 300, the all-time high. The Con-
necticut squire, who is playing little
nowadays and got in only one prac-
tice round, Is rated among the top
ten by the boys in the clubhouse.
They say history repeats itself.
National Open Champion Craig
Wood is entered, but underwent an
operation some months ago and Is
not fully recovered.
Sammy Byrd. the former base
baller who now is Detroit pro, is a
favorite to make Arnold's prediction
come true. He has been shooting
par 10 pretty consistently in the
practice rounds.
1t is a conglomerate field with
enough color to draw the galleries
and throw the tournament wide
open. And so far as Arnold is con-
cerned, that is all to the good.
