Mount Clemens
Varsity Idle
Until Jan. 4
St. Mory's Meets
New boltimore
Quintet Todoy

The Mount Clemens sB" bas-
ketball team composed of re-
serves for the varsity travelled to
Roseville Tuesday night and lost
their first game, 81 to 20.
The Roseville team grabbed
an early lead and extended it
throughout the contest.
The Varsity will be idle un-
til January 4 when it meets
Hazel Park away.
The st. Mary's cagers, who
won their first game against st.
Mary's of New Baltimore, will
play them in a return game to-
day on the local court. The
Mountaineers will then have
rest until Jan. 4 when they tam
gle with st. Ambrose of Detroit
in a league game.
Although the Mount Clemens
'B" cagers were outclassed,
Coach Roy Quinn felt that the
game was justified in that his
reserves would be able to pick
up some experience.
Leading the Mount Clemens
team was Mike Schwartz, lanky
sophomore, who dropped in four
field goals and two foul shots
for 10 points.
Emmett Gallagher scored six
markers and Gordon Schott was
able to drop in two baskets and
a foul shot for five markers.
Schultz of Roseville tailed 21
points to walk off with scoring
honors for the game. His team
mate, Jones, at the other for
ward position, managed to drop
in II points.
The Bathers held their own in
the first period and were only
trailing 10 to 8, but Roseville
jumped to a 27 to Ia half-time
lead and 81 to "a third quarter
margin.
Mount Clemens made IL shots
out of 36 tries as compared to
Roseville's 25 baskets in AZ tries.
The Bathers made five free
tosses in 16 tries.

Minnesota Football Team
Is Named FLOP Of the Yea"

NEW YORK, Dec. 20 Up
The University of Minnesota
football team, which started off
like a house on fire, then lost
five in a row, today was named
the Flop of the Year in the
annual Associated Press yearend
poll.
The collapse Of the Golden
Gophers was far and away the
biggest disappointment singled
out by the sports writer's par
ticipating in the voting. 1t polled
a total of 112 points compared
to the ST. Louis Baseball Cardi-
nails, whose failure to again win
the National League pennant,
put them in second place at 80
points.
With Bernie Bierman back on
he coaching job, Minnesota
started off like a pre-war pow
erhouse in brushing aside Mis-
souri,, $40, Nebraska 61-7, Fort
Warren 14-0 and Northwestern
30-7.
The tide turned on October
II when Ohio State came up
with 20-7 victory. Michigan
and Indiana followed through
with 26-0 and 49-0 triumphs and
Iowa, the "weak sister" of the
Western Conference, startled ev-
eryone by scoring a 20-19 VIC
tory. Wisconsin then plastered a
26-12 defeat on the Gophers in
the last game of the season.

Comeback Award
Tiger Wins
by Big Morsin

NEW YORK, Dec. 20 --(R-
Hank Greenberg's contribution
to the Detroit Tigers pennart
and world championship after
four years as an Army Air Force
captain was an overwhelming
choice as the biggest sports
comeback in 1945.
The popular Tiger left field
er received 100 points in the AS
sociated Press year-end poll Of
"a sports editors. Twenty-nine
Of the total voted his feat first
place, nine gave him second and
four voted him third.
Greenberg's slugging, which
included a pennant clinching
home run, caught the fancy Of
many of the experts who ap-
parently had not expected him
to pick up where he left off in
l941. Even after he rejoined the
club July 1 there were reports
that big Hank had slowed con-
siderably, lost his batting eye
and was ready to hang up his
glove.
Second place in the poll went
ITO pro golfer Ben Hogan, with
80 points. and third to tennis
star Sarah Palfrey Cooke, with
%.
Bo McMillan's Big Ten cham
pion Indiana football team and
