Close Victory for Caps Makes
Coach Yedrn for Full Squod

Tommy O'Keefe each had IA
points. to share runnerup honors
behind Schnittker, who tied the
mark set by Bob Feerick of the
original Caps five seasons ago
and later tied by Max Zaslofsky
of the Chicago Stays.
Only 480 Fans Turn Out.
A small gathering of 48O Gus
toners were treated to some fancy
shooting by both teams, particu-
larly Tommy O'Keefe, Schnittker,
Tidrick and Slaughter of the Caps
and Carbondale's Tom Smith and
Bill Chenecka. Smith had %
points and Chenecka, 20.
After nip-and-tuck first quar-
ter, which ended with Carbon
dale out front, 1921, the visitors
took the lead in the first min
ute of the second period and didn't
lose it again until after 80 seconds
of the fourth period. The Aces led,
48-43. at half time and with three
minutes to go in the third held a
10-point advantage at 65-55. A
long shot by Hal Hunter. a foul
by Tidrick and two fouls and two
field goals by Schnittker narrowed
the margin to 66-64 as the Pc
riod ended.
The Caps went out front to stay
with four minutes to go in the
game. Tommy O'Keefe's long set
shot tied and Leroy Ishman and
OKeefe followed with layups to
put the Caps out of reach.

eve haven't any comedians this
year." Coach Jim Tatum of Mary
land was saying, speaking of his
coaching staff. "All of these boys
are serious students of the game.
Sometimes it helps to have some
body around who will provide a
few laughs, but I guess we've been
doing pretty well as it is"
Tatum, of course, gives great
credit to his assistants for Mary
lands unbeaten team and it's
Sugar Bowl berth. Big Jim is
strict about hiring competent
men. and when he gets the man
he wants the assistant earns his
money.
In his four years at Maryland
before the 1851 season, Tatum was
something of a slave driver. His
daily meeting started at 10 o'clock
and most nights during the foot
ball season the staff retired to
Jim's home for sessions that often
lasted until 2 am. The coaches
usually were so tired they couldn't
put much pep in the practice
sessions.
However, it was the coaches
choice to work at night instead
of 7 o'clock in the morning-al- l.

despite his slight build and $50
pounds, joined Tatum three years
ago. Jack is listed as a line coach
but also doubles up.
Hannemier Chief Assistant.
Tatum prefers not to list his
assistant coaches in order, but
almost everybody refers to Henne-
mier as second in command. Jack
has nice way of getting guys
about twice as big as he is to play
football like he wants it played.
Third in seniority is Denver
Crawford, an All-SoutheaStern
tackle at Tennessee. who played
one year of pro ball with the New
York Yankees and coached the
line a season at Washington and
Lee before joining the Terps last
year.
Denver doesn't say much and
it takes him a long time to say
it, his drawl is that thick. Craw-
ford is a big favorite with the
players and he could be the man
to help Maryland beat his alma
mater.
Mont Prize Acquisition.
Tatum's prize pluck this year
was Tommy Mont as backfield
coach. A four-year letterman at
Maryland in football, basketball
and lacrosse. Mont later played

Coach Chick Reiser of the Caps
had two major problems facing
him at the outset of the Aneri-
can Basketball League season. He
has solved one of them by acquir-
ing big Jim Slaughter. The other
problem-getting his team up to
full strength for each game-Well,
it can't be solved.
Last night, for example. the
Caps had to come from behind to
beat the Carbondale Aces, 97-91,
at Uline Arena. Had Carl Braun
and Ken Murray been on hand,
the suspicion is the Caps would
have won in waltz.
When we're at full strength, "
Reiser admits. I'VE have a great
club. But it's tough to get them
together. We had only few
workouts at the beginning of the
season and it shows. In the first
half Carbondale was fast-break-
ing us and laying up easy shots.
We looked sloppy. But in the
second half, our boys started
hustling and playing good defen-
Isiye ball. The only shots Carbon
dale made in the second half were
tough ones"

Blaik Won't Confirm
Or Deny Talk About
Leaving West Point
BY the Associated Press

WEST POINT/N. Y, Nov. 29-
If persistent rumors are true,
Army's tatttered football legions
may be trying to beat Navy Satur-
day at Philadelphia as a farewell
gift to their coach, Earl Blaik.
Blaik himself hasn't said yes
and hasn't said mo" to reports
that he will step out at West Point
at the end of the present cam
paign.
The same rumors were spread
widely last summer after the bulk
of Army's great football team, in
Guiding the retired colonels quart
erback son. was dismissed from the
academy for cribbing on examina-
tions.
But Blaik spiked the reports
at specially called press confer
ence in New York August 9 when,
after stoutly defending the dis
missed athletes, he announced he
intended to remain as coach of
the wrecked squad.
Recently there have been pub
lished reports that Blaik already
has a new job lined up for 1852
and nationally broadcast tip
that the colonel will be coach of
the professional Philadelphia
Eagles.
Criticized Pros.
A year ago, it was recalled, Blaik
criticized the type of play en-
ployed in the professional league.
asserting it was not football, but
a show" Among other things,
he contended that a good college
team could defeat a good profess
slonal team, including the Eagles.
To the reports, he said: Il
would be foolish to go around
denying all these rumors as they
pop up"
He declared he did not expect
to make an announcement on the
matter, one way or the other, after
the Army-Navy game. If there's
anything to the reports, official
word of it probably will come
through channels.
Meanwhile, up on the Hudson
Army fever is being whipped into
whitehead state by cadets who
are hoping to see last years 14-2
upset by Navy avenged.
Gen. Taylor Addresses Corps.
Three massive rallies are sched-

dressed the entire corps last night

sendoff is planned for the team

Maryland, CIV Fans Miffed Over AN-Stor Team

There was considerable resent
ment at Maryland today, and some
at George Washington over the
Southern Conference team Sc
lected by the Southern Conference
Sports Writers Association.
Terp followers couldn't believe
that Dick Modzelewski could be
omitted from any all-star team
embracing the conference area.
Little Mo was only a second team
selection. while the first string
berths went to Bill George of Wake
Forest and Elmer Costa of North
Carolina State. Costa had a
great year last season but OBJ
viously slowed down this year.
The Maryland coaches couldn't
find John Alderton on any of
the first three teams, although
throughout the season they have
been referring to him as the best
end in the South.
Washington's Glenn Smith of
Clemson, the APPS lineman-of- the
week this week, and Jack Lewis of
Wake Forest were the first string
ends.
Only Mighty Mo, Ward Named.
The only Maryland players to
make the team were Ed Modzelew-
ski in the backfield and Bob Ward
at guard. They polled the highest
number OF votes. The Terps be-
lieved Jack Scarbath should have
been there at firSt-string quarter
back and Tom Cosgrove center on
at least one of the first three
teams.
Andy Davis of CIV made the
second team in the backfield but
Colonial supporters were hoping
for first team berth for their
star ball player in his senior year.
Frank Continetti of CIV made
the second team at guard and the
flashy Bino Barreira the third
team in the backfield.
Maryland had Dick Modze-
lewskl and Scarbath on the sec
ond team and nobody on the
third.

Bratton Hits New High
In Hometown Favor
With GaviIan Draw
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO. Nov. 29.-Johnny
Bratton, Chicago's unpredictable
welterweight. turned in a per-
formance before a town
crowd in Chicago Stadium last
night that earned him a draw
with the champion, Kid Gavilan.
The end of the non-title 10

across the Nation, found the 1897
spectators on their feet, cheering

A rabbit punch, called by Ref

seventh round and gave Bratton
the deadlock which probably as
sures him a bout next month with

All three officials gave Bratton
the seventh round, 6 to 4, under
the Illinois scoring system.

When Mr.. and Mrs. r. L. Sub
lett at 1919 E. Washington enter
tain, those who have been previous
guests know they are in for a
treat. Last Sunday was no ex-
ception to the rule. The table was
a picture with the pretty center
piece of pink sweet peas and fern,
flanked by tall white candles. The
cleaning silver and long stemmed
crystal added to the setting, but
the center of attraction was the
napkins which were folded in the
shape of arm chairs and the place
cards were nestled in the seats.
The aspic salad, ham, turkey and
trimmings were all delicious. Each
guest upon departing left subtle
hint that he and she would be
eagerly awaiting the next invita-
ton. These well satisfied people
were, Messrs. and Mesdames FL
roy Chinn, James Johnston,
George White, Samuel Potter, S. j.
Shelton, Lester Turner and Mr..
James Hunter. Perhaps I should
say Mrs. James Hunter also, be-
cause the Subletts were kind
enough to send me a huge platter
with everything the others had on
it. And did I lick the platter clean!
/ could actually feel my strength
returning.
THE good old Institution of
Marriage is certainly increasing
it's membership these days. There
should be a certificate in every
home, I always said. Mr.. Leon
Whitaker felt the same way about
it, so he and Miss Vera Wick mo-
tored to Lordsburg, N. M, over
the weekend and were married.
Mr.. and Mrs. Whitaker are re-
siding temporarily at 9O3 West
Yuma street.
