Dupont Circle Citizens
Hear Alcoholism Talk

If alcoholism is a disease-and
Congress says it is-why should
the general public regard it as a
half humorous, half disgusting
condition?
That was the question asked at
the Dupont Circle Citizens Asso-
citation meeting in the Mayflower
yesterday by Col. E. Goring Bliss,
chairman of the District Alcoholic
Clinic Committee in its formative
period. He spoke on the problems
of alcoholics.
Its not a question of medi-
cine" he said. "Cures depend on
instilling INTO alcoholics the will
to resist liquor"
The District program Of reha-
bilitating chronic drinkers is in
no way directed at social drinkers
and does not contemplate tamper-
ing with present regulations OF
liquor sales, the speaker said. He
added that, since the Washington
program is the first of its kind in
the country. its success or failure
will be watched with great inter-
est by other cities.

By Bob Keefer

Needing only one victory in their
three remaining league games, the
highly-rated Shaw cagers will try
to clinch the Lake Erie League
title when they invade Lorain to-
morrow night.
Already assured of a tie for the
crown by virtue of their win over
Shaker last Friday, the Cardinals
are determined to finish their
league schedule with a clean slate.
However, the trio of opponents
they have yet to face in the next
three weeks present a formidable
obstacle and it will therefore take
a maximum Of effort to turn the
trick. Both Lorain and Elyria will
be met away from home while the
final fracas with Heights, although
played in the familiar surround
ings at Shaw, will undoubtedly be
another close contest as was the
one at Heights last month.
Lorain with its present 4-3
League record, could still tie for
the title if they should win their
remaining three games while the
Cardinals lost theirs. The Steelmen
have been weakened by the mid
year graduations of Bob Telatnik
and George Mitroff, but they still
pack enough power to make things
tough in their race to the wire.

scored sc points in five games for
a very respectable 11.2 average

performance gives him runner-up
honors with 43 tallies. Pint-sized
Harold Thornhill, Hawk play
maker, holds the dubious honor of
being the leagues "bad man" with
Is personal fouls charged against
him in four games. McGonegal is
also the leagues most adept foul
shooter with 10 conversions in 10
attempts. The Fort Cubs own the
best offensive and defensive rec
ords in the local circuit with 30.8
point average per game to their
opponents 9.4. Their only loss was
a forfeiture to the Lions in the
season opener, but they are heavy
favorites to anneXt the second
half title.
The second-round will get under
way at Shaw Gym on Saturday af-
ternoon with three games sched-
uled. At $3.50 the Fort Cubs will
meet the Campbell Tigers. The

BY Bob Keefer

The Meinhardt Lions won the
first-half title in the East Cleve-
land Class F League last Saturday
by edging the Campbell Tigers,
1916, in a hard-fought struggle.
The Lions h had their "tails
twisted" throughout most of the
contest, but a third-period rally
pulled the game out of the fire.
The Tigers, playing an inspired
game, took a GO first quarter lead
and held an So halftime advan-
tage. However, few well-directed
remarks by Coach Tom Meinhardt
at the intermission, put snarl in
the Lions attack as they came back
to take a 1910 command at the
end of the third period with Center
Don Heidel as the most "ferocious
feline.
Howie Rose, Tiger forward. in a
state of utter confusion, suffered
no end of embarrassment when, in
the third quarter, he deposited
field goal in his opponents basket.
The game also brought out fam
lily "feud" between Bob and Harold
Sullivan who are members of the
rival teams.
There was an unconfirmed report
that Bob locked his brother in
clothes closet just prior to game
time to enhance the Tigers chances
for victory. Harold, however,
showed up in time for the game
and contributed six points to the
Lions cause. Both of the hand
some, husky Kirkonians are left
handed and each wears No. s on
his jersey.
In Saturdays other games, the
Sexton Hawks drubbed the tooth
less Henderson Sharks, 30-12,
while the Fort Cubs mauled the
Mason Panthers, 35-6.
Don Campbell, aggressive Hawk
forward, set a new individual Class
F scoring record by dumping in
% points to better Howie Roses
former mark Of IA. Campbell
could have increased his point out
put had he not missed all eight of
the free throws he attempted.
In the Cub-Panther contest, Don
McGonegal, the Cubs southpaw
forward, tailed 16 markers to hold

LEI Title At Stake As
Shaw Invades Lorain:
Fort Top League Scorer

Walter Watt, Steeler's junior
guard who ranks third in the Lake
Erie League scoring column, is
the main piston in Lorain's potent
point-making machine. Center Don
Fritz and Forwards Dick Rybarc-
zyk and George Paris are other
performers who are capable of a
steady bombardment on the hoop.
Paris, who rode the bench as Tel
atnik's sub during the first half
of the season, has tailed a total
of 35 points in his last three start
ing assignments.
Lorain has always proven tough
for Shaw on the spacious stage
floor and the Cardinals will have
to be on their toes if they expect
to finish on the heavy end of the
score.
Dick Fort still retains COM
Portable lead in the Lake Erie
League scoring race with total
of 131 points for an 1877 average
per game. Dick Henderson is in
the second-place spot despite his
scoreless performance against
Shaker last week, but his 104
points give him a 15-point margin
over Walt Watt of Lorain who
holds down third place. Shaw has
a decided edge both extensively and
defensively in. the team statistics
with 52.7 average to their oppo-
nents' 35.1. This compares very
favorably with last years unde-
feated Lakewood quintet which
averaged 49.8 against the opposi-
tons 36.5. Lorain ranks third in
point production and has the Sec
ond best defensive record.

Shaw's medly relay consisting Of
Uber, Gaines, and Stafford was
good for Shaw's last 6 points of the
meet. The "Docmen" were handi-
capped in the Edison meet because
Dick Forsberg and Tom Parham
graduated at mid-term. Jerry
Young's ear injury which occurred
on Jan. II kept him out of Shaw's
