Finance, Ordnance B Win in Bowling Loop

The Finance bowling team, paced by bridegroom Price Barnes near record 137, defeated the Signal Section in two matches out of three. The Moneymen rolled high 581 in the first match and while both teams failed to hold this ter rife pace in the second, the League-leaders held an eighteen pin advantage when the last maple toppled. The Signalmen were paced throughout the evening by Spaz- ziani, who had a series of 361.
 The Ordnance B team took two of three from their brother Block busters. Paced by Huckemeyer and Katz, the B boys made it an un- pleasant evening for the second place A keglers. Major Louis Poudre rolled an even 300 for the A team while Huckemeyer's single ton of 138 and Katz's total of 388 caused plenty of headaches in the A camn.

BRADLEY BOXERS DEFEAT QUONSET IN THREE BOUTS

The Bradley mittmen put the pressure on against the Naval team from Quonset, Rhode Island, and won three out of the four bouts which were held.
 In the opening bout of the eve ming, Davis, 175 lbs., of the Navy, won by TKO over Al Tobin, 17O lbs., in the second round of a three round setto. Davis had Tobin com pletely whipped from the opening bell.
 A newcomer to the Bradley Field boxing team, Jack Sheehan, 154 lbs, easily outpointed Zalusky, 16O lbs, of the Quonset team.
Bradley beam., 1944-04-01

Charles Leach, 1855 outpointed Strange, 135 lbs., in a close fight.
 L. D. Tribble, 130 lbs., won a hairline decision over Wins, 123 lbs, in a bout that had the crowd on it's feet from the opening gong.
 Claude Grace defeated Al Dionne in an exhibition bout after the team bouts.
 Art Saulsgiver gave away 45 pounds to Dave Salustri in the nightcap and was awarded the de- cision after a bruising three rounds. Salustri used his weight to good advantage in the opening stanza but Saulsgiver's better ring generalship won him the bout. It brought back memories of the Dempsey-Willard scrap in Toledo to see the small fighting machine bring about the Goliath's downfall. Salustri put up one of the grandest fights ever seen in the gym but tired too much from Saulsgiver's bouncing attacks.

Q. Are there any good ball play CTS left?
 A. There are a few slightly spawned but still serviceable 4Fs around. The Yankees have Nick Etten, Frank Crosetti and Tiny Bonham. Detroit has Dizzy Trout, 21-game winner, and Doc Cramer, ever-reliable outfelder, and the Browns have good AZ infield. The Cards Mort and Walker Cooper are still around, though maybe not for long, and Mel Ott, Giants play er-manager is IA, but may be re- jected. The Dodgers still have Dixie Walker. the peoples cherse, and Lippy Leo Durocher. who has acorns on his elbow. Jimmy Foxx is trying a comeback with the Cubs and Pepper Martin ditto with the Cardinals. Connie Mack's draft board hasn't called him yet, either.
 o. Who will win the flags?
 A. We'll, in the National League, the experts like St. Louis, .Chica- go, Cincinnati and Brooklyn. The Cards have the most players, the Cubs have the most promise, the Reds have the most pitchers and the Buns have the most men over 38. In the American League the ex- perts have gone way out on the limb and picked the Yankees.
 o. Where's Bobo Newsom play ing this year?
 A. Bobo is hanging his hat at Shibe Park, Philadelphia, although he hasn't signed contract as yet. He says he's going to win 20 and pitch the As out of the cellar and into the pennant. Bobo's still the same old talky-talk.
 Q. Is Judge Landis still around?
 A. He sure is.
 Q. What does he do?
 A. Darned if we know.

 Dewey Johnson led the Bombers to victory with eight field goals and six foul shots for total of twenty-two points. Denton "Slick" Johnson was next in line with sixteen points and John Gut kowski contributed six. For the Fort Williams team, Thorne was the high man with nineteen points and Macdonald had nine.
 The Bombers jumped into the lead at the start of the game and they were never headed. The Artillery men never crept to within more than eight points of the Airmen. At tn conclusion of the first quar- ter the Bradley team led by a score of 17-2. It. Catania replaced his starting team with a whole new five and at half time the Bonnbers were on top 25-17. The Bombers increased this to 1925 at the end of the third quarter and coasted in to victory during the final quarter.
 The Fort Williams team had pre- viously won the championship of the Harbor Defense teams by de- feating the Fort Wright team of New York Harbor, which the Bombers sent down to defeat in the quarter-finals.
 Dewey Johnson was all over the court and particularly under the blackboard as four of his eight field goals were of the tap-in variety. Johnny Gutkowsd held Kritikos to three field goals. Kritikos, pre- viously to this game, had averaged over twenty points a game. The Bombers scored twenty-two goals from the field, made good ten of their eighteen free throws while Fort Williams had sixteen field goals, and made twelve foul goals out of twenty-six tries.

Now is the time for all good baseball fans to go into spring training once again. The old hot stove has been boarded up for the season and faithful fans from coast to coast are dusting off their sailor straw hats, cranking up their bottle throwing arms and oil- ing their foghorn larynx the better to hurl vituperation and spleen from the stands on opening day.

Our word music" came to us
from the ancient Greeks. The
Greeks had stories about mine
Muses." who were daughters Of the
god Zeus.
The Muses. were said to take spe-
cial care of singing, dancing and
other arts. We hear Of their sing
ing in chorus while Apollo played
his Tyre.
From the name Of those nymphs
or goddesses came our special name
for the art of making pleasing
sounds for the human ear.
The Greeks had no pianos or
violins, but they played on Tyres,
lutes. flutes and Panpipes. They
also had horns.
The first sound-making horns are
believed to have been prepared
from animal horns. The horn Of .
bull Is hollow, and when the tip
Is cut on . small hole Is left. BY
blowing through the small hole,
man long ago found that he could
bring forth Q blast of sound. Other

metal into shape, they made horns
from copper and bronze. These
were larger than could be made
from animal horns, and produced
more pleasing sounds.
Horns Of wood and metal were
made In Egypt, Assyria and Greece.
The hornmakers In those lands
often curved the tubes, and made
trumpets Of . sort.
The art Of making trumpets was
known In both Greece and Rome.
The Romans used trumpets q great
deal IN the cavalry division Of their
armies. Some Roman trumpets were
in the shape Of the letter ~" and
were from 4 to 5 feet long.
The modern trumpet has = tube
which is curved more than the kind
used In ancient Rome. Usually It Is
made Of brass or silver. A trumpet
OF today has . tube which Is
curved back on itself" ut least
once, and very commonly twice.
Tumpets are used IN bands and
orcl lestras. They also are employed
