The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1954-01-28
BOWL CONTEST RESULTS

in which the Globe-Independent CO.
operated. There were more than
5000 entries.
Peter Brenenborg of Pittsburgh,
Pa, won the major prize of 5000. He
was correct in nine of his selections
of eleven games played, figuring
wrong only on the Cigar-LaCrosse
game and the Arkansas State-Eastern
Texas game, both of which resulted
in ties.
Since a total of 81 entries all pick
ed nine of the eleven games cor
rectly, the top awards were made on
the basis of the total yards gained
in rushing and passing.
Fort Ord, who played Great Lakes,
gained the highest number of yards
but none of the winners selected
them in their entries.
Rice and Georgia Tech were Sc
lected by number of entrants and
strange to say they both wound up
with total of 438 yards gained by
rushing and passing. Brenenborg
walked off with the 5000 because he
only missed Rice's yardage by three
yards, his figure being 435.
Helen Watson of Kalamazoo, Mich,
won theasecond prize of $500; Winkie
Murray, a patient at the Veterans
Hospital in Dallas, Texas, took the
third prize, SIS; Sharon Shannon, of
Berea, Ohio, won the $50 fourth
prize, and the fifth prize of $25 was
won by another lady, 10 Ann Foley,
Madison, Indiana
No one in the State of Maryland
won anything and as a matter of
fact, the only entries from the entire
eastern seaboard to cash in on the
contest were a man from Syracuse,
N. Y, and a lady from Hoboken,
N. j., both of whom won consolation
prizes of S.. each.
Because of the already heavy bud
get for 1854, the Mayor and Council
were unable to provide for a new
steel grandstand at the Municipal
stadium this year.
There is, however, an item of S.
600 in the 1854 budget, to take care
of repairing the present stadium and
these repairs will be completed be-
fore the season opens. The city en-
gineer has assured the Council that
the repairs contemplated will put
the grandstand in first-class shape.
