The Wyandotte news-herald. (Wyandotte, Mich.) 1943-1963, 1945-10-11

was an excellent attendance ana
this year there are very good pros
poets of much larger groups. SO
bows and girls under Is report Mon
day night at the nearest school
which is being used for this recre-
alton program Monday night at

girls will report at 8 o'clock the
same evening.
In the Fraternal Order of Eagles
Bowling League things are starting
t. hum. Team number IL is on top
of the heap leading Dallas Restau-
rant by one game and two games
over Charlie Kiefer's team num-
Der seven. In the high three games
series, Gass and Gee are tops with
1856. Gass and Gee also lead in
the team high single with a swell
900. A. Parish is the top high three
game man with 594 closely followed
by J. Tomasik with $50. The high
single game man is K Parish with
great 245 and right behind him
in the second place spot is j. Par
ish with 244.
A couple of more well known
Wyandotte boys in the field OF
sport arrived home on furlough
this past week-Cpl. Jimmy Nc
Grath and Pfc. Walter Monske.
Jimmy has had quite a session in
the boxing ring since he left Wy
andotte and has hung up some nice
records. In 1910 he was in the Col
den Gloves finals and then en-
tered the Golden Gloves down in
Texas where he was stationed.
There he won the championship.
Not to be outdone by this he then
entered the National Champion
ships at Chicago and there lost in
his second battle. Jimmy is fighting
In the middleweight division. 1t may
be possible that in the near future
he will enter the ranks of the pros
and with his good record he should
get someplace in a hurry.
Walter MonSke who will be re-
membered as being with the Roose-
welt Football teams back in 1885
at right half just pulled in with
three campaign ribbons from down
in the south sea district. Walt had
malaria four or five times but looks
pretty good right now.
There is something in the wind.
Sam Congress who Is now a full
fledged profeSSor-in poker-is 60
ing to start school and teach the
boys how to play. Professor Con-
gresS, I understand, has been CIV
ing a few lessons lately and the re-
suits have been very satisfactory
to him. If interested in the pro-
fessor's school, just get in touch
with Emil Eddelson at Metropoli-
tan Furniture.
Old man hockey is getting around
again-and one thing which will
interest the fans is coming up at
Olympia this month. The Univer-
Sity Of Michigan will meet the De-
troit Red Wings at Olympia Tues
day night, october 20. There should
be no doubt who the winner will be
but 1t will provide a very interest
ing evening in which comparisons
can be made between the profess
sional and amateur.
Open letter to the Wyandotte
Chemicals club: Why not schedule
some good boxing and wrestling
matches this coming winter? You
have the place and the man who
knows his stuff on that sort of
sport. I believe the fans here in the
CITY Would go Tor something like
that in a big way.
The city will be without a foot
ball game over the weekend. All
high schools are playing out of
town.
The Recreation department has
announced that there has been a
swell response to their asking for
teams for volley ball. Looks like q
swell league will be formed and
there should be plenty of fun for
the players and spectators. Any
team wanting to join the league
should get in touch with the Rec
reation department before 1t is too
late.
