OFFICIALS THEMSELVES are

OFFICIALS THEMSELVES are
partly to blame for the poor
Sportsmanlike conduct of many
fans. Fifteen years ago when re-
ferees like Al Jolley and Harry
Kirke walked out on the floor,
they were complete masters of
the situation-their word was
gospel. Not one fan or player
out of 10 knew one rule from the
other, and officials were scarce,
SO fans failed to question their
calls. During the past few years
however, concentrated efforts
have been made to enlighten the
fans and acquaint them with the
rules. The result is that now the
spectators realize that officials
are only human, can make mis-
takes, and could have prefer
ences. And armed with at least
a smattering of the rules, these
fans can make life miserable for
the referees when they think
their team is being robbed"
ANOTHER PEEVE heard strong
ly anymore is the practice
of permitting game officials to
assist in the selection of all
tournament teams. If these men
are as impartial, unbiased, and
disinterested in the teams in
volved as they are supposed to
be, how can they put forth their
best efforts and still find time
to make notes on this player
or that? The ideal officials should
be able to forget what teams are
playing, who is ahead, or how
| many fouls each teams star
player has acquired. The referees
are in the game to watch
| the play, not pick out some
mythical team to receive the
dubious honor of being man,
ed best in the tourney. Score
keepers and timers likewise
have duties to perform. If all
| tourney teams must be selected,
why not leave this thankless
task to those who are in a posi-
ton to stick their necks out?
SOME UNKNOWN author, who
gets credit whoever he may
be, has summed up the situation
in the following easily-recogniz-
ed parody.
think that l shall never see
A satisfactory referee.
About whose head a halo
shines
Whose merits rate reporters
lines.
One who calls them as they
are
And not as / should wish, by
far.
A gent who leans not either
way
But lets the boys decide the
play.
A guy who'll sting the coach
who yaps
From Siwash Hi or old Milsaps.
Poems are made by fools like
! me
But only God could referee.

MYRON CUTLER, Summerfield

M L NUN OOkLEh, SullilIlSIllSld
center, was the only Noble
county player to be selected on
the all-tourney team during the
recent sectional at Marietta as
he received four out of five
votes for first team. Among
those receiving honorable men
ton were Bill Christopher and
Hugh Walters of Caldwell, along
with Larry Osborne of Summer
field, each receiving one first
place vote. Beanie" Barnett of
Vincent was named the tour
ney's outstanding player as he
polled first place votes of all
five judges as did Earl Petty of
MatamoraS and Dan Stoffel of
Bethel. Judges were the two
referees, timer, scorer and
sports writer's from the Marietta
and Parkersburg papers. Six
players were named to the first
team since three tied with four
votes each. Petty was the tour
ney's high scorer with 81 points
in four games, an average of %
per game. Barnett of Vincent
was second with So points, while
Dick TredWay of Belpre had 48
followed by Myron Cutler and
Ronald Barnett of Summerfield
with AZ and Al points.

DISTRICT TOURNEY play at

behind Barnett'S 19 points, while
Petty tailed 80 as Matamoras
nipped Dresden 63-62. In the
finals, MatamoraS avenged coun-
ty and sectional losses to Vim
cent by swamping the Bobcats
70-48. Petty rang up "a points
and Barnett Il in another bril-
liant scoring duel.
A GREAT DEAL of criticism
was and is being heard from
several quarters following the
sectional and district tourna-
ments at Marietta - criticism
hinging mainly on the playing
site and the manner of hiring
officials two highly-important
factors in determining tourney
winners. First off, they say the
sectional is getting to be lust a
continuation of the Washington
county tourney" and on the odd
years when the district joust is
held at Marietta it really be-
comes a home town affair"
This of course is in reference to
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1951-03-15

holding the county, district and
sectional on the college field
house floor giving Washington
county teams a distinct advan-
tage, despite the fact that out
of-county teams may get in an
hours practice on the half-acre
some morning. AS proof of this
theory, consider the fact that
when Matamoras and Vincent
met Saturday for the district
title, they had played ten and
nine tournament games respec-
lively on the same floor. Nat
urally, the reason for holding
the games at Marietta is a good
one-the fact that no other town
in the three-county sectional
can seat the crowd. When the
tournament rotated between
Caldwell, Woodsfield and Mari
eta, seating capacity was limit
ed but then Noble and Monroe
county teams felt they had a
chance to wiz, which is the
prime objective of the tourna-
ments rather than how many
fans can be squeezed in. Now
the grippe is "you can't beat
Washington county on their
own floor" and you must be
state contender to win at Mar
ietta". Opponents point out
that Woodsfield, a Monroe coun-
ty school, copped the sectional
three years straight but they
forget that the Indians had a
team that could and did defeat
several class A schools, includ-
ing Marietta. When you figure
the hard-fought, one-point dis
trict wins for Vincent and Mata-
moras plus three close calls in
the sectional, it looks like may
be the "home boards" might
have made the difference. One
suggested outlet might be to
stage the Washington county
tourney in the high school gym
and let the fans worry about
seats.
ABOUT OFFICIALS, there's no
question concerning the ref
erees being honest and sincere,
yet the manner of hiring seems
to be. criticized most. 1t seems
officials for the tournaments are
hired from lists approved by the
district boards, with coaches
making recommendations to the
board and then members choos-
ing from that list. Yet fans
| are complaining, and justly SO,
about hiring officials from the
same county or towns as schools
participating in the tourna-
ments. 1t puts these men en-
the spot in case of close games
| and that's just what there has
been at Marietta the past two
weeks. Bethel held a three
point lead with 20 seconds to
play, yet lost to Belpre 50-49,
Vincent rallied to edge Woods
field 48-46 and nip Summerfield
] 41-38 both on free throws,
while Matamoras knocked out
Caldwell by eight points when
two regulars fouled out in the
second and third periods. In
the district joust, Matamoras
edged Dresden 63-62 after Ted
Border, 6-5 center, and Myron
| Archer, both leading scorers
| fouled out. The same evening

The oddity of the scoring was
the fact that Crooksville, a

the only team with three play

Dresden had two 200-point
players, Philo, .Roseville, New

Dresden "one of the best If

appear there in some time, yet
they lost. The same issue also
says: What could have de-
veloped into more than just a
rhubarb was averted by city
police after the Dresden-Mata-
moras game. Referee Ray Hoff,
on leaving the floor between
games, had his shirt partly rip
ped when grabbed by a specta-
tor. Police intervened and an
escort was provided for Hoff
and his co-worker Dick Hamil-
ton to and from the floor there
after. During a timeout in the
second game, a segment of the
stands chanted variation of

disagreement with some of the
calls in the Matamoras-Dresden
tilt"

al with Bill Cowden, 6-6 center
and scoring ace, being banished
on personals along with Ed
Potts. 1t seems quite a coinci-
dence that both these games
we're won in the last quarter
after the big boys fouled out.
The district referees were Ray
Hoff of Newport and Dick
Hamilton of Belpre, while for
the sectional they were Ray
Hoff and Al Strimer, both of
Newport. All of which just
gives the out-of-county fans
more room to gripe. There are
enough good officials in the
state to be divided up among
the tournaments so that "outsid-
ers" with no interest in the
teams at all could work the
games.
