Tampa, where they've trained
since 1881, and the Red Sox will
do their spring training in Sara
sofa, as they have since 1888.

ington and Perry were his prin-
cipal rivals for District middle
weight honors, and he defeated
both before big crowds at Griffith
Stadium.
One of the best remembered of
his fights was his first-round
knockout of Kapilow. a prominent
New York fighter. July IA, I947,
before $4,000 at Griffith Stadium.
That was the famous zone punch
fight when only one blow was
thrown. Hursey caught the sur
prised Kapilow on the jaw and
knocked him down and out. They
were rematched the next month
and went to a 10-round draw.
Hursey seemed to lose his touch
in 1948 and lost most of his bouts.
He had one fight last year, lost it
and retired from the ring.
While he was being managed by
Stevenson, Hursey was a stable
mate of Sonny Boy West, Wash
ington fighter. who was fatally
injured in a New York fight in
December.

Smuggy Hursey, reported miss

weight champion in 1947 and rated
that year by Ring Magazine as
the country's sixth-ranking 160-

tired last year with an overall

and one draw.
Early in his career Hursey was
managed by Mel mighty MeD
Stevenson, crippled handler of
fighters here who started Hursey
as an amateur. Later Hursey was
handled by Henry Armstrong, for
mer triple champion.
Hursey was hard puncher and
an enthusiastic fighter who never
failed to please the crowd. He was
a big drawing card in Washington
especially during the height of his
career in 1916 and 1947 when he
fought Bee Bee Washington, Aaron

Baker and Pine must be guarded
tightly or they will set and shoot
well from far outside. Distance is
no concern with these two and
they sometimes amaze spectators
with the length of their attempts.
Colangelo seems to tell his guards
to fire away from any length, tax
ing his chances on rebounds with
Gradijan and Hevener, both big
boys, under the basket.
The Colts got break in meet

Coolidge and may help the Colts
league standing by knocking off
other rivals.
Coolidge is no shoo-in for the
playoffs. but on past performance
it must be given fine chance to be
among the top four at the sea-
sons end.

Bucky Ennis 15-SecOnd knock
out of Peter Platt may have been
the smash hit of Gus 5-3 victory
over Virginia's boxers Saturday
night, but Coach Eddie LaFond
was just as pleased by the per-
formances of his men in the four
lighter classes.
Maurice Reumont, 145-pounder
who chalked up Catholics first
point after Virginia won the frs:
three bouts, did a particularly
good job. LaFond thought, al
though he showed he has much
to learn about pacing himself.
Reumont, nephew of Eddie
Buell., time professional fight
er in this area, took up boxing to
get out of physical education
classes. A student participating
in intercollegiate sport fulfllls the
physical education department
requirement that every student
engage in some sort of sports ac-
tivity.
The Cardinal coach liked the
way Joe Walsh, 1875, and Johnny
Cronin. 1870, handled themselves
against more experienced op-
ponents. LaFond was elated by
Joe Incarnatos cool tactics
against Grover Masterson, Vir-
pinia'S 12nnoI1nd Eacterp cham
pion, who took the hardest punch
of the fight on the jaw when In
carnato saw an opening.
"We still have a rough road to
travel with Penn State, Syracuse
and Miami coming up LaFond
observed, ''but We'll get better and
my boys showed they've got the
stuff that makes good teams.

Holding NickScaI|ion
Enables AU 10 Beat
Washington College

American University has learned
how to eat Washington College, a
Mason Dixon Conference foe.
Simply hold Nick Scallion under
27 points and the Shoremen can
be had.
The Eagles handed the Shore
men their first defeat in confer
ence competition last night at
Chestertown, 69-62, holding Seal
lion to % points before he fouled
out.
Washington College previously
had won three straight with Seal
lion scoring 81, 27 and 80. Last
year he broke Jim Lacy's Mason
Dixon scoring record with 397
points in 16 games, for an average
of 24.8.
Scallion fouled out with three
minutes to play and the Eagles
leading, 65-58. 1t was close most
of the way, with Washington Col
lege in front 40-35 early in the
second half by scoring the first
eight points after halftime.
The victory gave the defending
conference champions more league
triumphs-f1ve-than any other
team, and pushed them into fourth
place behind Loyola. Mount ST.
Mary's and Roanoke. American
U. has lost one, to Loyola.
Leroy Ishman, Eagles captain,
enjoyed his second highest scoring
night of the season, 20 points, but
AU won because it had four men
with IA or more points. Ed Moi
fatt and Art Morales made Is
each and Sherwood Webster IA.
The latter's sprained foot did not
bother him too much. Webster
dropped to ninth in the confer
ence scoring with a 19.0-point
average.
Friday the Eagles play Mount
st. Mary's in what could develop
as a scrap for the league lead.
Saturday they will go to Phila-
delphia to meet Dreel Tech.

(Juneau had no murder recorded during l95o)
 Every minutes around the clock during 1850, according to the FBI report there was crime of murder, manslaughter rape or assault to kill
 Urban crime in 1850 remained practically un- changed as compared with figures for 1949 but an increase of A. per cent was registered for rural crime
 Increases were noted in rural as follows Aggravated assaults "A per cent; burgares, 69 per cent larcenies 43 per cent; rapes, 3S per cent man slaughter by negligence, 80 per cent.
 Youth played a predominant part in the com- mission of crimes against property says the FB1 report "289 per cent of the persons charged with robbery burglary larceny auto theft embezzlement, fraud forgery counterfeiting receiving stolen prop erty and arson were less than 2l years old"
 Here Juneau's record is also under that of the United States the percentage of juveniles involved with the law was only about per centa total of 23- during 1850.
 In the nation at large, police recovered 92 per cent of all stolen automobiles and recoveres on money were 12 per cent jewelry 197 per cent furs GA per cent clothing, 16.5 per cent and miscellaneous prop erty 2So per cent The record of the Juneau police in this concern is superior, too, MT. Hulks report ndiates Of 37 stolen articles B recovered and of Is lost articles 14 were located.
 The seasons according to MT. Hoover, have n marked effect on crime Murders rapes and assaults
 
 during peak summer months exceed by approXl- natey one-third the frequency of such crimes during low months in the colder seasons
 Could our mild climate be given credit for m frequency of such crimes in Juneau? Or IS It a trend resulting from the city governments attempt to keep Juneau a good home town That is what we are trying to do Chief Hulk has said. Keep Juneau good clean town safe to live in, safe for children safe for business tcs G t.
 To compile the annual Uniform Crime Report or the FBI total of 521l agencies contributed IT, formation to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
 Aside from the interest of comparing Juneaus $ police activity with that of the nauon-to Juneau favor-the FBI report is of interest in that it makes reader realize that MT. Hoover's famous bureau knows what is going on throughout the country - :n ,rban and rural areas knows just what crimes are being committed where and why.
 The nations report is good
 But we'll still take Juneau

JUNEAU IS A GOOD TOWN

 There are other interesting trends pointed out by MT Hoover in his report recently released through Juneaus FBI agent Tom Naly:
 A total of 179O03o major crimes were committed in the United States during 1850, one major crime every IS seconds
 In an average day, 1,129 places were burglarlzeo and 3O1 persons were feloniousy killed or assaulted

FDR Jr, Was Absent

Ironically, administration Demo- crats from big cities, which need public housing most, had as much to do with adoption of the Gossett Amendment-if not more-than the Republcan-Dixiecrat coalition.
 Gossett and COP Rep. Jesse Wolcott of Michigan, another real estate lobby wheelhorse, cleverly forced a vote late Friday after members of the famous in-Tuesday- Thursday absentee club had made their usual mass exodus to New York and elsewhere. As a re- suit, the Gossett Amendment won by default, 181 to 1l3.
 Though New York would gain more than any other city from continuance of the public housing program, only five of it's "A House members were sufficiently inter- ested in their constituents to re- main in Washington and vote against Gossett. They were Demo- crats Gary Clemente, Vincent Quinn, James Delaney, Donsld o. Toole and Christopher McGrath, all of New York and Brooklyn.
 Sixteen Manhattan and Brooklyn Democrats, however, were absent for the vital vote affecting their districts-Heller, Anfuso, Keogh, Kelly, Heffernan, Rooney, Multer, Celler, Murphy, Donovan, Klein, Fine, Powell, Dollinger and Buck ley, and even Franklin Roosevelt, Jr., whose father helped pioneer public housing, did not stick around to vote. Three New York City Re- publicans also were not present to vote-Latham, Coudert and Javits.
 Philadelphia, another big city with slums, also was let down by its Democratic Congressmen. Its two Republican members, Hardie and Hugh Scott, were on the floor to vote against the Gossett Amend ment, but all four Democrats from Philodelphia-Barrett, Granahan, Chudoff and Green - took a run out powder. W
 So also did Chicago's Democrats William Dawson and John Kluc- zynski. Dawson, negro Congress man, represents one of the most congested areas in the world, while Kluczynski's Polish district is only little less so. However, they did not bother to vote Another signi- ficant absentee was Democrat Bob Poague of Waco. Texas, whose con stituents recently voted for public housing in a referendum.
 Other Texas absentees from cities with public housing programs were Frank Wilson of Dallas, Paul Kill day of San Antonio and Clark Thompson of Galveston.
 Note-Some of these absentees may have been i'll or out of town on legitimate business, but the great majority had no excuse for missing an important roll call like this.
