Chase Park Junior Basketball Loop
Notes

AS predicted last week, the game between the Knayes current leaders of the league, and the Boys Club Keystones, provided the fireworks" in last weeks clashes at Chase Park gym. Both teams set a terrid pace from the first tap and with the exception of the final minute of play, neither team had an advant- age of more than two points. With a minute of play remaining, suc- cessive field goals by J. Milius and John Daly smashed whatever hopes the Keystones had of victory. Al members of the Knaces contributed to the scoring, while P Bazzarini and V. Rollo took over the scoring honors for the Keystones. The final sore 20 to 16, is indicative of the hotly fought contest.
 Intellectual shooting and "adhes- i've guarding" was the story of the game between the Atomic Aces and the Middlebury Bobcats, won the former club, 9 to 2. As in their previous contest, the Bobcats had grace" shots in the waning min- utes of play but were unable to take advantage of the situations.
 The JaSpers, after being frtstrat- ed in their first two games, finally hit the victory trail when they showed under St. Mary's Midgets to the tune of 26 to B. Hailed in the beginning as the top team" the Jaspers new hopes to the Jasper adherents. G. Officer and R. Val lone pitched in with five baskets a piece while M. "Slats" Mandzik, the leagues "hook shot" artist pumped in three field goals to aid in the cause.

1S,OOO FANS TO SEE BOUT THIS EVENING

New York. Dee. Ss=fUP)= BraKny. dark-haired Freddie Schoii. gho loves classical music and the iound Oi crunching Igbs. will ty to establish himself as the WoTlG's most promising white hope" tO- night in the years last fight at Madison Square Garden.
 Young Schott oi Akron. o..--un- beaten though held To a draw ID 42 professional bouts-stacks up against his fiuSt name" opponent. He meets Joe Baskl. rugged ex-coal miner of Kulpmont. Pa. They are slated for 10 rounds. and a crowd 1i about i3,O00 is expected for the test.
 Although the 2o-year old body punching specialist already has the best record Of any young heavy in the world. seasoned Baski will be favored at about 7-5 10 tag him with his first defeat.
 Baski Favored
 Sandy-haired Baskl-a numbering. plodding operator-will be favored because Of his seven years ring experience and because he is rated rugged enough to weather Freddie's Eody barrages. meanwhile seeking points with his own "head-hunting" attack. Moreover, 9 year old Joe will out-weight Schott about 2l4 to POT.
 Baski would be a lop-sided fav- oIite had he not lost three of his seven bouts this year. In his last two starts he was beaten by com paratively obscure Negroes-Jersey Joe Walcott and Jimmy Bell Early l.l the year he lost to Lee Oma. His four victories added little to his prestige. He triumphed over two washed-up hasDeens: Gunnar Bar !und and Lou Nova. Also over Dixie Lee Oliver, who was knocked out in the first round by Lee Sa- void, Saturday; and over mediocre Larry Lane. The Ring Magazine dropped Baski to No. 12 among the world heavieS in it's annual ratings.
 Unbeaten This Year
 Meanwhile Schott was unbeaten In Il bouts this year, although hceld to & draw by Ferdinand Menichelli Of Argentina. His best wins were over hard-punching Billy Grant and John Thomas
 Despite Schott's love of grand opera and symphony music, and de- spite his body-pmching prowess, :I1any experts doubt that he will be- come menacing contender be- cause of his habit of plodding for ward in straight line to lay down his barrages. This makes him "clay pigeon" target for the first explosive sharp-shooter he meets.
 However, Manager Bill Daly in- Sists that Freddie will do no straight line plodding tonight. He says Schott has been working intensively OH the bob and weave; also that he has sharpened his left jab remark ably under the tutorship of veteran Lee Savold, his stablemate.
