News of Younger Generation In
 Brass City Sports
' YIN MALUNEI [
 (StaR Writer)

Two of Waterbury's younger sports enthusiasts entrained early this morning for separate institutions of learning, Jimmy Shell, Cros- by high graduate for Holy Cross, in Worcester, Mass, and Georgie Flynn, a member of the Leaven- worth high school graduating class of "44' for the University of New Hampshire. Both of these boys, however, during their high school days went in for sports in a dif- ferent way. JIm Shell, the former of the two was an active partici- pant in several different compe- titive sports while George Fly h was merely for the most part the very interested spectator Both boys nevertheless knew the sports thor oughly and made it point to adhere to all their rules and regu- lations.
 Jim Shell followed sports &C., lively and participated in many since his last few years in St. Mary'S grammar school at which time he steadily perfected his increas- ing aptitude for basketball. When he reached Crosby high in 1940, Jim became a member of one of the Hi-Y organizations in which he excelled in basketball, and track especially. Though Jim had no time for high school competition he hopes to continue his indulgence in one of his first loves, basketball, at this higher institute of learning.
 George Flynn, for almost three and one half years a stack boy at the Silas Bronson library, was known to me as an ardent and in- terested spectator of basketball, baseball, football and track. AL though George never participated much in these sports himself he knew and loved them. Now George after graduating from Leavenworth with academic honors, will enter the U. of New Hampshire which he has chosen as a teacher for his hrigher learning.
 Hats off to these two boys! We are sure that the success that was theirs during their high school days will follow and increase three-fold in their newest and biggest of all ventures. Good luck boys!
 
 George Sonny" Steinmetz, a Crosby high graduate in the class of '43, and first year man at WeS- leyan University in Middletown, Conn.,, is slated to enter the armed forces in the near future. Accord ing to word received from the very congenial young baseball enthusiast he has passed the physical with colors flying and will be toeing the mark in no time flat. Best of luck, GeorgieI

ScoviII, U. s. Time Teoms to Meet

The weatherman finally relented last Wednesday evening and allowed the I. R. A. baseball league to get under after two previous starts had been rained out. In the opener Chase had very little trouble in routing weak U. s. Time team.
 Coaches ripper Conley and Bob- by Greatorex have moulded to- gether a strong Chase team. They are pointing to their game two weeks hence with an equally strong Scovill E. R. A. team. Coach Roy Murphys charges were pressing the Washington Hills, c. A. L. entry, in a Thursday night exhibition game when rain brought halt to play after 4 innings. The Hills were lead ing 3 to at the time.
 Tonight the s. E. R. A. club is scheduled to meet Georgie Gra- hams U. s. Time team in a regular league game at Hopeville diamond. Graham has been busy strengthen ing his team the past week. It is rumored he may have a new face on the mound. Johnny Minor will be on the receiving end.
 Rollie Benson, ex-Wilby player, and Felix Longo, veteran c. A. L. luminary will be the starting batter for the S. E. R. A. nine. Joe Joyce and Ray Kozen will show in the in- field while Roy Bates is almost cer- tain to hold down an outfield posi- ton. Umpire Jim Mobile will start the game at 6:15 p. m.
 Chase was originally scheduled to meet the Hills on Thursday even- ing in an exhibition game. The game has been postponed however as most of the Chase plant is on va- cation this week.

Is This What You Think?

The startling revelation that Jim Tobin, of the Boston Braves. Ma tional league club and Mort Cooper of the championship St. Louis Cards, do not grace the official ros- ter of the All-Star National league combination which will face an equally potent American league out fit at Pittsburgh on July llth just seems to make us bat more than an eyelash. Although Tooin and Cooper are inclined to be wild at times we can not ccncede the fact that this N. L. combine has the cream of the crop" in pitching unless the two names are on the roster. However, that's up to the boys who think they know they know. Get it? I don't!
 Football fans hereabouts might be interested to learn that the Eli Yale has already drawn up and completed arrangements for an eight game football schedule in the fall. The first game being slated with the Coast Guard academy on Sept. 30th. To top it off the whole eight game schedule will be played at Yale Bowl, much to the home towns delight, eh, what2
 Speaking of football, Notre Dame is certainly going to miss the spark ling and dynamic aerial power which was theirs in Angelo Bert" Bertilli, their great backfleid star of '43, who is now on active duty with the Marines. Bert by the way intends to get hitched within the week according to all reports,

Mulligan did offer Constantine $5 ,000 guarantee or g per cent of the net receipts of bout that figures to attract 10000 to l5.000 fans from all parts of Connecticut and New York Constantino's op- ponents of recent months have been of the S750 to $500 variety.
 On Friday night of this week, Pep boxes Willie Joyce, Gary, Indi- ano negro lightweight at Comis'-ey Park, Chicago; the champ opposing the l34 pounds foe who twice Ge- feated Henry Armstrong.

 New York, July 5-UP)- Ii handsome does as handsome is, the rings great sex-appeal slugger- Lee Oma-Should become heavy weight champion of the world with out having an eyebrow plucked by a hostile glove.
 Oma, the Russian Rocker, who resembles the late Rudolph Valen- tino-eXcept that he has more oomph - grandiloquently accepted Lou Nova, the Yogi man, as his next opponent, to prove that beauty is more than skin deep.
 Oma, of the glossy black hair olive complexion and blonde-sum- moning teeth, will tangle with Nova at Detroit's Olympia on July IA. He eagerly accepted Nova as his oppo- nent; but he was reluctant to re. turn to Detroit, his home city where he is regarded as an "ugly duckling"-despite his masculine beauty.
 
 Oma, now 27 and apparently al the peak of his prowess, is regard cd as an ugly duckling' in Detroit because of early mistakes that he made in and out of the ring-mis- takes that We will not enlarge upon at this writing. Suffice to say that since laruping Lee left Detroit IA months ago he has fought with such effectiveness that today is the sixth ranking American heavy weight, in the ratings of the Ma tional Boxing Association and the Ring magazine.
 Handsome Oma, whose father and mother were born in Russia and who machine guns the Russian language himself, has fought 25 times under the colors of Manager Tex Sullivan, since his reformation He lost only three bouts, and won 22. Of these victories he is work ing on l9 in a row. He has kayoed l2 Of these opponents, including Danny Cox, Larry Scalone, John Denson. Herbert Marshal. Dusty Wilkerson mad Georgia Parks. He has outpointed such well known performers as Wallace Cross and Buddy Knox.
 Tex Sullivan, former secretary to heavyweight champion Jim Brad dock and Manager Joe Gould, say: Managing Dma is a brand new ex, perlence for me. It isn't just a ques- ton of keeping him in shape and arranging matches-Itis me agains the women. Everywhere Oma goes ! have to fight the women off Sometimes wish some opponent would bash in his nose, and spoil his perfect profile. and give him cauifiloWer ears. It would make things easier for me. At first, I was polite to the women; but l am nc longeF polite, Nov push them around, which ] don't like to do Please do me a fayor--tell the women that oma is narried-and not interested"
