Georgetown Cagers

By the Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. T.
Georgetown built up an early
1873 lead. then held off repeated
Temple threats and downed the
Owls, 72-55, in the first game of
a Convention Hall double-header
tonight.
In the second game, played be-
fore a crowd of 10000, fourth
ranking La Sale outlasted Du-
quesne, 1896. The crowd was
the largest at Convention Hall
in five years.
Georgetown, which won it's
ninth victory in Is games, started
against Temple as though it
would rout the home team. After
only five and a half minutes,
Georgetown led, 1873. But Tenn
pie spanked by Lefty AL Didriksen
and Harry Silcox, made battle
out of it.
Although Temple never caught
the dOyaS, Cne Owls came close
several times. Just before the end
of the half, Temple pulled to
within two points, 1886. How
ever, as soon as the second half
started, Georgetown added to its
margin and managed to hold off
Temple whenever the Owls
threatened.
With 4:40 to play, Georgetown
led by only 60-55, but nine con-
versions in the final minutes
helped the Hoyas pad their lead.
Hugh Beins was high for
Georgetown with 81 points, while
Didriksen's II paced Temple.

Bobo Olson Decisive Winner
Over Hayes in TeIevised Bout

Hayes fought in 2O-Second
furries through most of the fight
to bring roars from the crowd,
while Olson threw punches at a
lively clip every minute.
For the first five rounds, the
21-year-old Boston Negro. beaten
by Bobo last December in San
Francisco, gave the busy Olson
a good run for his money. At
that stage the 24-year-old Olson
led by a narrow margin.
But in the sixth, Hayes right
eye started to close and from the
seventh round on it was half
closed from the cutting left hooks
of the fast punching invader,
There we're no knockdowns,
but Hayes, fighting desperately
in the ninth round, shook up
Olson with a solid right to the
chin. In the seventh blood
trickled from Hayes nose.
There were only two rounds
the first and the fifth-in which
the rugged Bostonian put out all
the way. Otherwise he permitted
Olson to set the pace and didn't
open up until a minute and a
half to two minutes of the rounds
were gone. When he did, the
crowd let loose with cheers.
There was no doubt as what
the decision would be. The crowd
hooted Judge Heirty's close score
and cheered for the other two
announcements.
Under Massachusetts, rules, the
winner of round gets 10 points,
while the loser gets from nine
to seven. For an even round,
each fighter gets 10 points.
1t was Olson's 51st victory
against five losses and the
seventh defeat for Hayes in his
last eight fights.
Olson. who declared himself
out of the middleweight elimina-
ton tourney, will leave for San
Francisco tomorrow by plane
with Sid Flaherty, his manager.
Flaherty said he will resume ne
gotiations in San Francisco with
Jack SolomonS. British promoter,
for a bout either in San Fran
cisco or London with Randy
Turpin, the former middleweight
champion.

Thorough Trial
For Negro Star
SculI Praised Highly;
Rondy Gumpert Sent
To Los Angeles Club
By Burton Hawkins

Mounting interest by other
major league clubs in Washing
ton-owned Angel Scull, Cuban
Negro outf1elder. may prompt
the Mats to give him a thorough
trial in spring training, Vice
President Calvin Griffith said
last night.
Scull. a right-handed hitter
who developed amazingly with
Key West toward the end of last
season. according to Farm Direc-
tor Ossie Bluege, tentatively is
ticketed to be farmed to Charles
ton. w. Va, in the American
Association, but Griffith and
Bluege say it's likely he'll get a
chance to stick with the Wash
ington club.
Meanwhile. the Mats reduced
their roster yesterday by selling
Randy Gumpert, right-handed
pitcher, to Los Angeles. The 35-
year-old Gumpert had a 40
mark with Washington after
being obtained from the Red
Sox with a 10 record
Griffith, contacted at the Mats
spring training base at Orlando,
Fla. said, We've heard so much
about Scull that we're all anxious
to take look at him and I think
our best chance of doing it will
be in spring training. If he
shows us enough. he'll stick with
the club"
Many Clubs After Him.
We've received a lot of hand
some offers for Scull," Bluege
said. Many major league clubs
have tried to get him from us.
I've never seen him, but the
offers we're getting for him
would indicate he has plenty of
ability. All heard in the major
league meetings at Phoenix in
December was Soul, Scull,
Scull.' I figure that if he at
tracts that much interest we'd
better hang on to him."
Scull. who would become the
first colored player to be tested
by the Mats in spring training,
has been in organized baseball
only two years. In 1851 he batted
1923 with Wellsville, N. Y, in the
Glass D Pony League.
Reports to Bluege from Scout
Joe Cambria praise Soul as
faster than Minnie Minoso,"
the fleet Cuban Negro outfielder
with the Chicago White Sox.
Scull's so stolen bases with
Wellsville is proof he can
Scamper.
Scull started last season with
Havana of the Glass B Florida
International League, but was
no early sensation. When Fort
Lauderdale pulled out of the
league, Key West picked up the
franchise and other clubs in the
loop contributed players to help
Key West get started. Thus Scull
landed with Key West and it
was there he began OF shine.

Bluege said, land wound up hit

A series of circumstances is

signed to a Chattanooga con-
tract, but no colored player has

'Us, maybe?" says Dan hopefully.
'All in good time, says Kitty. Its my

His name is Horace Wentrich and he's big
cattleman Oh, he sounds wonderful
'Why?" asks Dan. Because he's got over
sized cows?"
''It's not his cOWs that are big" Kitty ex-

hundred thousand acres in Arizona. Aunt
Sylvia met him in Tucson three weeks ago,
and it was love at first sight. She just got
back today and she was positively giggy.
He's getting here by plane Friday night, and
they'll be married the next day."
Another wedding present. sighs Dan.
'Just the opposite" says Kitty gaily.
They're going right back to Arizona, and
Aunt Sylvia says we might as well take her

more cars now than he knows what to do

For that yellow convertible" says Dan,
Il will stand up on my head with them and
walk on my hands down the aisle"
It'll be Saturday at noon," Kitty says.
Aunt Sylvia phoned him today and told him
you and would be the best man and maid
of honor. So don't be late and don't let any
stupid police work interfere"
Il promise" says Dan, which is sort of
silly, because cops should never make plans
ahead. People are always getting murdered
without enough advance notice, and it is a
well-known fact that cops have no lives of
their own.
The Inspector sends for Dan on Thursday
afternoon and he has that bad-news look on
his face.
He eyes Dan carefully and then he says,
You'll do. From the description got over
the phone you look enough like him.
''Yes, sir, says Dan. Like whom?" He
is always very careful about his grammar like
Kitty teaches him, when he talks with the
Inspector.
Like who" barks the Inspector. What do
you mean by using good English? You are
about to impersonate mug known as Gable
puss Kostecki."
The Inspector then gives with the fll-in.
1t seems he has phone call from the police
chief of a city two hundred miles away, and
this chief tells the Inspector he has nice
singing canary who tips him off that none
other than Gablepuss Kostecki is on his way
to visit the Inspectors town. And this is
rather interesting, because Gablepuss is known
to be very able free-lance trigger man. who
does nice, clean job if the price is right
I'VE HAVE enough trigger-men around here
without importing out-of-town talent" says
the Inspector Il do not like the idea, espe-
cially since Gablepuss, when he has a few
drinks, brags to the stool pigeon that he is
coming here to do a special job that will net
him half grand.
Only goes on the Inspector, chuckling
at his little joke, ut won't be Gablepuss who
arrives. It'll be Dan McGarry. l am having
the train tagged at Centerville. which is
twenty miles out of town, and we will take
Gablepuss off and put you on. You can wear
his clothes and carry his papers, and give an
imitation of trigger-man and find out what
goes on around here"
But" says Dan, ''if our local bad boy
