Western Pins Hopes in PIoyoH
On Snouffer's Return to Form

Coolidge basketball supporters
are hoping Westerns Lou Snouffer
won't have one of his hot days
when the two teams meet in the
opening round Of the interhigh
playoffs in Uline Arena at $50
pm. tomorrow.
Snouffer, senior, has one OF
the best eyes in high school bas-
ketball and when he's on, a
monotonous series Of long baskets
Is the result. Lou Gagged 81 points
against Eastern, II in both the
Anacostia and Coolidge games and
26 against Tech.
Lately Snouffer has been both
cred by "a back injury that has
slowed down his set shots. Until
recently he's been wearing a rub
ber pad on his back, but now
Coach Cliff Moore says Snouffer
feels better and expects him to
return to early season form.
Long arching sets are Louis
most spectacular shots but he
has as wide an assortment as any
player in the league. He can drive
past the basket for layups, stop
short and throw them up one
handed or hook from the pivot
spot.
He's good on rebounds too and
helps tough Howard Berger and
lanky Arnie Scribner under the
boards. Ball handing and defense
are two of his specialties and he's
accurate at the foul line as his 10
free throws against Tech testify.
All in all. Snouffer is a pretty
fair ball player and most teams
in the city would be happy to
have him. Earlier in the year
was criticized for shoot
ing too much but since then has
turned into a team player and
sets up many Of Westerns plays.

Roosevelt 10 Depend
On Smith and Frank
In PIayoff With Tech
By Brion Bell. Jr.

Roosevelt's chances of upsetting
Tech when they meet tomorrow
night in the first round of the
interhigh playoffs hinge on con-
tinuation of Bill Smiths high
scoring and Sid Franks fine ball
handling.
Those two. coupled with East
ern's inaccuracy from the foul line
yesterday. were mainly responsible
for the Roosevelt Riders 48-44
win over Eastern at Uline Arena
to gain a place in the playoffs.
Tech and the Riders will play
in the second game at Uline at
$50 pm. tomorrow with Western
and Coolidge meeting in the
opener at 8. The winners will
meet at Uline at 2 pm. Saturday
for the league championship.
Win Last Playoff Spot.
The Riders, tied for the league
lead most of the season, found
themselves in a tailspin toward the
finish. After losing three straight
they had to play Eastern yester-
day for fourth place-the last play
off spot-but the Ramblers weren't
as much trouble as expected.
Smith led both teams with 10
points and kept his team a couple
of baskets ahead Of Eastern from
the third quarter on with set shots,
one handlers, layups and fouls.
Frank led the last period freeze
that won
Leading by seven points with
four and a half minutes to go,
the Riders increased their pos
session type play but Eastern
showed signs of another last
ditch rally similar to the ones
that beat Western and almost
defeated Tech. Jim Rhinehart,
Bill Ahern and Gino D'Ambrosio
began to cut the Roosevelt lead.
Some of the Riders wilted under
the Rambler pressure and made
bad passes but Frank provided
the steadying influence and with
a great exhibition Of dribbling and
ball handling managed to hold
OF the desperate Fasteners.
Smith Provides Clincher.
It was Smith again who pro-
vided the clincher when with
less than a minute left and Roose-
velt showing only a three-point
lead, he broke in close for
game winning layup.
Eastern, never very accurate
from the foul line, was hopelessly
inept yesterday. The Ramblers
outscored Roosevelt, 10 field goals
to II. but made only OF 10 free
throws. The Riders IA of "a tries
from the foul line was not too in-
pressive, but good enough to pro-
vide the margin.
The Riders introduced a new
player to interhig1 ranks In Dave
Walker, a transfer from Florida,
and he scored 7 important points.

and so they clamped an arbitrary

This happened six weeks ago.
Then last week the bookies re-

to $40.
It was the magnitude Of the
current gambling inquiry that
prompted the LIU president and
trustees to return all LIU sports

The trustees added that ian

After the boys decision to
quit, Sollazzo insisted they come
through. Hogan said, but the trio
persisted. The three players were
quoted as saying fears were
aroused by complaints of their
shoddy play to Bee.
However, Hogan said SollaZzo
thought the boys were fooling. and
bet heavily that LIU would not
beat Duquesne by as many points
as the bookies were giving. The
result was a terrific beating for
Sollazzo, estimated at $50,000,
and 84-52 pasting for Duquesne.
Authorities thought Sollazzo's
loss in this game was probably
the reason he missed paying off
two of the CCNY players after
an alleged .''fix" in City's game
against Boston College.

ADVISES MEN
WHO HAVE
Thin HAIR

If your hair is thin on top or reced-
ing at the temples-don't make
the mistake so many men do and
plaster it down with greasy, sticky
products which make your hair
look like less than you really have.
Besides, such products leave an
unattractive shiny, greasy-look-
ing film which shows through on
the scalp-which traps and holds
dandruff flakes.
So start today and groom your
hair with Kreml Hair Tonic to
avoid a shiny, greasy-looking
scalp-and to make hair look
thicker. Kreml alone has this
special combination of rare hair
grooming ingred edients. Kreml
doesn't look or feel the least bit
greasy or sticky yet it keeps hair
perfectly in place all day - so
natural looking. That's why
Kreml is also preferred among
men with full heads of hair who
despise greasy goo. Also a won
derful treatment to remove dam
druff fakes and dead scalp skin
cells. Kreml always feels so CLEAN
ON your scalp and hair.
The makers of Kreml sell it on
the strict guarantee that if you
don't think it makes thin hair look
thicker and more handsome than
it has looked in years-your
money will be refunded. A mighty
fair offer and one you men with
thin hair should jump at. Why
not prove it to yourself today!

first Olympic Games, in Athens
in 1896, Sweden had only two rep

Great Britain third. In Antwerp,
in 1920, Sweden reached second
place, after the United States, and
in Paris, in 1924, Swedish athletes
gathered the third best score.
These prominent positions could
not be maintained indefinitely, but
at the Olympic Games in London,
in 194S, Sweden once again was
the second best nation, winning
seventeen gold medals against
thirty-eight for the United States.
In the track and field events, Swe-
den held the same position. Wrest-
ling and the modern pentathlon
are two other specialties in which
the Swedes have played leading
part, and in the pentathlon Swe-
den has actually captured every
Olympic gold medal but one, in
Berlin, 1886. No Swedish victory
at the Games in London, however,
was greeted with greater popular
enthusiasm than that of the Soc
GER team. In the Olympic Win
ter Games in 1948, which were
held at st. Moritz, in Switzerland,
Sweden achieved the highest total
score. 1t is such traditions that
the Swedish athletes will have to
defend at the Olympic Games in
1852, and competition will prob
ably be keener than ever.
