score stood at 1851. The Knights
attempted to stall out the remain
ing time but Barney Altman Of Del
phoS grabbed a loose ball and
scored and it was 65-63 with ten
seconds to go. Here st. Aloysius
coach, Bob Fowle, called a time
out. With the crowd standing and
screaming the teams returned to
the floor for a Jump ball. Delphos
got the Jump and tried three shots
from in close. All of them missed.
Allen got the rebound and passed
to guard Myron Smith who brought
the ball down court at the final
buzzer.
st. Aloysius had advanced to the
championship game by defeating
Westmont 71-62 in the first round
the day before. In that game Allen
set a new tournament scoring rec
ord by dropping in 43 points. With
his 35 in the Delphos game he set
a new mark in total scoring for
the two game event.
Coach Bob Fowle in summing up
the victory thought it was the
Knights tremendous desire to win.
They played their hearts out. And
despite Aliens 35 points, the win
was strictly a five man effort.
Guard Myron Smith played a tre-
mendous floor game. He did a
great job of working the ball
around before passing TO either
Allen or Sagan for the scoring at
tempt.
The well coached Delphos team
took their defeat like true sports
men. AS soon as the game was over
the entire team Swarmed around
St Aloysius players and offered
their congratulations. Father Ed
ward Herr, ST. Johns principal, was
the first to shake hands with Bob
F'owle.

JEWS IN
SPORTS
BY BILL WOLF
Copyright, 1854, Jewish Telegraphic
Agency, Incl

It's always enheartening to see
young athletes showing great
promise and working their way to
the top of the sports ladder.
This is true in any sport, but
as far as young Jewish player
is concerned, it is particularly
true in sport like tennis. For, in
tennis, there was a time when
Jewish players were very scarce,
and it is only recently that we
have begun to see more of them
on the scene.
Such an up-and-coming athlete
is young Alan Silverman of
Brooklyn. Alan, who is only IS
years old, looks like he may go
places.
He has already gone places for
his age-group. Recently he cap
tured the boys singles title in the
annual National Junior and Boys
Tennis Tournament. The compe-
tition was held at Kalamazoo,
Mich. Next year, Alan is sche-
duled to move into the Junior
class.
The interesting thing about his
performance in Michigan was not
merely that he won. It was that
he won. with some excellent play
ing and an ability that forecast
greater accomplishments to come.
Alan played in the finals again
st Earl Buchholz of st. Louis. Earl
started off strong and was smash
ing the ball into the corners. He
took the first set, 6-3, and led in
the second set, 40. He had won
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1954-08-13

nine consecutive games from
Alan.
Then Silverman staged a come
back worthy of a top-notch play
er. He took six straight games to
win the second set, Ga.
In the third set, Alan once more
dropped behind, and was losing
AZ. Again he rallied, and succeed
ed in scoring Ga triumph in that
set to take the title.
Of course, lot can happen be-
tween now and the time when
Silverman would be eligible to
compete in leading tournaments.
Perhaps he'll never make the
grade. But no one can say that he
doesn't show a tremendous
amount of promise.

Dear Sir:
I am writing in behalf of the

LOCATED in communities through
out the State of Florida. B'nai
Birth is the worlds oldest and
largest Jewish service. organiza-
ton, having been founded in 1843,
and is dedicated to the preserva-
ton and strengthening of democ-
racy in our State and Nation.
am advised that on August 4,
1854, you are holding a public
hearing in Tallahassee to discuss
new regulations to be issued pur-
Suant to statute enacted by the
1858 session of the legislature
governing the sale and use of ex-
plosives in this state.
B'nai Birth was and is most
interested in the unfortunate
wave of bombings and dynamit-
ings which occurred in various
parts of our state in 1851; includ-
ing extensive dynamiting of syna-
gogues in the Greater Miami area.
At the time of these incidents our
organization cooperated with the
law enforcement officers as much
as possible in attempting to APP
prehend the guilty parties, but
we were dismayed to learn and
realize that, through no fault of
theirs, the law enforcement Of
ficerS were hampered in solving
these crimes because of the lack
of proper control of the sale and
use of dynamite and explosives.
At our 1852 Annual Convention,
we adopted a resolution urging
that the next session of the legis-
lature in 1858 enact a stronger
law regulating the sale and use of
dynamite and explosives.
We were most pleased to note
that the 1858 session of the Flor
ida Legislature enacted such a
measure into the law, and we
commend the Legislature for so
doing. It is outside our province
to suggest the technical provisions
of the regulations to be promul-
gated pursuant to the 1858 act,
since we are only service organ
ization. However, we do wish to
emphasize as strongly as possible
our concern over the Importance
of making these regulations as
