Highly Iouted Turner
Not Too Impressive
lin Win Over CardeII
BY the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-The jury
lis still out on Gil Turner. boxing
rookie of the year" for 1851.
Unbeaten Gil won decisively
from Vic Cardell of Hartford
Conn. at Madison Square Garden
last night in his New York and
Itelevision bout. But he was far
from a polished workman in his
9th straight victory.
Although George Katz, his mo7-
Iager, talks about a welterweight
title shot with Kid Gavilan, the
I21-year-old who beat game Car
dell is not ready yet for any Kid
Gavilan.
Needs Years Seasoning.
Perhaps he will be ready after
another years seasoning. After
all. he has been fighting as pro
only two years. Gavilan will be
too busy. anyhow, with title de-
'fenses already scheduled against
Bobby Dykes February 4 at Miami
and against Charlie Humez of
France March % at the Garden.
Extra anxious to make a SEN
sational showing for the TV fans,
Turner walked into too many
punches last night. Even when
he was binding Cardell with the
speed and fury of his frequent
fiurries, he was getting nailed with
sucker" rights.
Let there be no mistake about
the fight. Turner won from here
to there. 9-l on this scoreboard.
Judge Harold Barnes also saw 1t
81. Judge Charley ShorteI had
it 80 and Referee Harry Kessler
I'll with two even.
Critical of Referee.
Turner's handlers were critical
OF Kessler for permitting Cardell
to stick an open glove into CHS
face. Kessler said he warned Vic
three times.
You still didn't see Turner
fight" KatZ said in the dressing
room after the fight. Not the
real Turner. He's better than
that"
Next on the list for the young
ster from Philadelphia is a Feb
ruary 4 date in his home town
arena with Danny Stepanovich of
Pittsburgh.
When Al WE'LL, Garden match
maker. mentioned Billy Graham
as a future foe. Katz said, Sure
we'll take Graham. if we get a
guarantee of a title shot If we
win" No such guarantee was
offered.
Turner. who weighed 1453z to
Cardell's 146. poured leather at
Vic most of the night. Cardell. as
game as they come, fought back
and shook up the kid with a series
OF lunging rights in the third. Al
though Vic was on the catching
end most of the time, he drew
cheers from the crowd with a
game closing rally in the face of
heavy fire.

Loss Of Four Players
leaves Gonzaga Five
A Question Mark
By Bill Fuchs
: CATHoLIC LEAGUE STANDINGS.

Coach Joe Kozik has had to re-
build his basketball team some
what because of scholastic failures
by four players, but whether the
effect will be good or bad still
remains to be seen.
Three Of the players were de-
clared ineligible just before Con-
zaga lost to st. Anthonys last
week and the fourth was dropped
from the squad prior to last
nights game, won by Gonzaga,
T-41, over DeMatha at DeMatha
i"I counted on one of those
players for Is or 20 points per
game" Kozik says. Another was
one of my best f1oormen and good
for about 10 points. Another was
an up-and-coming sophomore who
was just beginning to look very
good. The fourth was also a big
loss"
kOZik Backs School Policy.
The players were declared in
eligible after the issuance of ad-
visory report cards. Report cards
are issued on different days for
different classes, which saved the
one player for the st. Anthonys
game.
Kozik is all for the school policy
which automatically makes in
eligible any player failing in one
or more subjects.
The way the athletic world is
now" he says, with gamblers and
fixes in the news, we've got to let
these boys know they are not
going to school just for athletics.
Sure, the losses hurt. but I've got
ten another combination and it
worked very we'll in the second
half against DeMatha."
Gonzaga wasn't very impressive

At Luncheon

Some people think that all a
successful author has to do is
to sit down. get inspired and sud-
denly novels are produced that
start bringing in royalties, the
Sweet Briar Alumnae Club of
Washington was told yesterday.
Actually, writing is "concen.
trated discipline-five finger ex-
ercises," Mrs. Evelyn Eaton, writer
and visiting professor of English
at Sweet Briar College. declared
at a luncheon meeting at the Ken
nedy Warren Hotel.
Mrs. Eaton, who conducts three
classes in creative writing as well
as a workshop for seniors, also
is working on a book manuscript
and contributes to the New Yorker
magazine
Il feel that a writer should not
be seen. hardly ever heard, but
read lot" Mrs. Eaton declared
Most people feel that buying
books is something frivolous like
buying a hat" she added. And
that they should always be bor-
rowed from friends"
More seriously, the author of
several historical novels, includ-
ing the Literary Guild selection,
Quietly My Captain Waits" OBJ
served that writing requires the
ability to think. and more and
more we're taking our thinking
secondhand out of the air via
radio and television."
For clear cut writing, Mrs.
Eaton advised. I'VE must get rid of
the muffie, the cliche and the
politicians's way of talking"
The writer was introduced by
Mrs. Robert RoSselot, Sweet
Briar Day chairman of the club.
Mrs. Joseph j. Chappell. president
of the local alumnae, presided.

Eagles Nest--the famed old
Grayson home-came into it's own
again after many years last night
as the setting for a lovely dance
given by the Canadian Minister
and Mrs. w., D. Matthews for
their debuante daughter. Jennifer.
The imposing gray stone house
ion Wisconsin avenue in times past
was favorite meeting place for
national and international figures
when its owner, the late Admiral
Cary Grayson, was naval aide and
physician to President Woodrow
Wilson.
Mrs. George L. Harrison of
New York. widow of Admiral
Grayson, still owns the historic
house which was built during
Colonial days and the Matthews
rent it from her. AS Miss Alice G..
Gordon she was the ward of the
present Mrs. Woodrow Wilson.
When the Graysons lived at
Eagles Nest they were noted for
their charming garden parties to
which invitations were as coveted
in those days as bid to the Brit

Gold and White Motif
For last nights bali the hand
some house was decorated entirely
in gold and white. Fragrant roses
filled the rooms with deep yellow
buds intermixed with white.
The debutante made a lovely
picture in her billowing gown of
white nylon net overlaid with deli
cate white lace as she received
guests with her parents. Mrs. Mat
thews in winter blue taffeta and
an orchid corsage was an equally
attractive part Of the picture.
Most of the several hundred
guests at the party were friends of
the blue-eyed debutante, who was
presented at the Washington De-
butante Ball December 81, but
there were a. very few of the Mat
thews' ! friends on hand too.
Among them were the Canadian
Ambassador and Mrs. Hume

Youngest guest at the party but
one of the, most delightful was
the debutante's 15-year- -old broth

on vacation from Ridley School in

at school in Toronto.

They were Miss Jane Aiken, here

slim lead over Villanova from
midway the second period to the
end.
Villanova outscored the win

second. But the 1O-point ad-
st. Louis piled up in the
second quarter carried it through.
Villanova outscored St. Louis by
