Spartans> CIV in Spotlight
As Maryland Play Opens
kiIIikun's Club
And St. Fruncis
Promise Battles
BY GEORGE HUBER

The Washington area gets Its
share of the holiday basketball
tournament shows tonight when
the Maryland winter tourna-
ment opens with George WASH
ington playing st. Francis OF
Loretto, Pa. and Maryland tax
ing on Michigan State.
Starting time in Maryland's
new 12,000-seat fieldhouse is
1880 pm. The tourney winds up
tomorrow night with tonight's
losers clashing at 1880 in the
preliminary to the title game.
CIV and Michigan State rate
as the favorites, but neither has
"a pushover tonight. The CO.
lonials, with a I'll record. face
a 1-3 team in st. Francis. which
was a quarter-finalist in the
National Invitational tourna-
ment last season. The SpartanS
are unbeaten in four games. but
in drawing Maryland (3-2) they
have an opponent that received
its two setbacks by narrow mar
gins from North Carolina ana
Kentucky.
Holup Carries Load
Center Joe Holup, who Is
averaging 29.8 points game
and who does other things be-
sides score, will lead the Coloni-
ais. The rest of the lineup Is
the same as it has been since
the opening game--Jay Manning
and Joe Petcavich at forwards
and George Klein and Bill
Telasky at guards. The Colo
mails one loss was an upset by
Manhattan in New York. They've
had no real trouble beating

WI HAS ONLY FOUR LETTERMEN
CIV High to Build Around
Two Regulars LeftFro "a
By DICK SLAY

It would be d novel experience
indeed for Washington-Lee High
School to be pitied at the outset
of a football season. yet such a
predicament appears easily with
in sight before the Generals
scheduled opener on September
16.
Coach Bob Waldorf does not
cotton to the gloomy approach
He gives the facts and let's the
publicity fall where 1t may, he'll
tell you. But, in truth, the bad
points seem to outweigh the good
this early in practice.
Its the smallest number OF
lettermen I've had to work with
since I've been coaching" Wal
dorf says-and he's been coach
ing u years. There are -four
lettermen back-Halfbacks Fred
die James and Dave Letter, End
Tom Hyde and Tackle Malcolm
Minor.
Shy on Experienced Seniors
This team won't be any
smaller in size than last year
about the same I guess. I'm not
too worried about that. I'm
worried about the very small
number of experienced seniors.
the coach adds. There are 10
seniors among the candidates,
four of them with varsity ex-
perience.
Add to the above: There are
only seven players who played on
Waldorf's first team two years
ago.
On the plus side, Waldorf says
that more boys turned out this
time than ever before, Ill on
the first practice day last Thurs
day. We also have an excellent
sophomore and ,unior group; big
in number and big in SIZE" Wal
dorf points out.
Plenty Of Speed
LETTER and tDick) Cavioala
are faster than Meroney. so we
won't suffer from speed" Wall
dork continues. John Meroney
was chosen All-Suburban Vir-
ginia on his speed and nard run
ming last fall.
Cavioala and Steve Reid, both
halfbackS, were junior varsity
Sprinters in track last spring and
right low they are the best bets
to push Letter and James for
their starting jobs. Gene Sher-
man and Allen Henry, two jayvee
fullbacks. should move up easily
Dennis Damon, q third-stringer
in 1854, heads a group of four
quarterbacks. Waldorf rates him

In the nightcap. it was a bases

coming a SO Detroit lead in the
seventh inning.
A beanball battle flared early
at Ebbets Field, but Plate Um-
Ipire Jocko Conlan put his foot
down in the fourth inning
warning both managers after
Stan Musial was hit on the right
hand by a Johnny Podres pitch
and Tom Poholsky had hummed
one behind Jackie Robinson.
Musial threw up his right hand
to protect his head against q
high, inside pitch. He played
until the seventh inning, when
the pain became acute. X-rays
showed no fracture, and Stan
hopes to play tonight at Pitts
burgh and keep his streak OF
592 consecutive games intact.
Ken Boyer homered to bring
the Cards within 5-4 of the
Dodgers in the seventh. but Duke
'Snider and Carl Furillo homered
for the Dodgers in their half oil

Mike Agee.
Agee. 5-foot-9 and 100 pounds

some observers, although barley
could throw a longer pass. Agee
proved his mettle under fire on
several occasions last year. He
was instrumental in GW's victory

their offensive roles. The Presi-
dents offense will be nodded

Nucleus of Team
."Agee and Garda will be the
nucleus of the team" Coach jim
Ford said. I'VE were hit pretty
hard by graduation and these
two. along with Bob Sisson. q
fullback, and Jimmy Pitt. q
tackle, are our only returning
lettermen. And Agee and Garda
are the only regulars from last
years squad"
Wen have to rely a good deal
on our jayvees from last year
and because of their lack OF ex'
uerience we may be hurting foi
the first few games"
Bob Gibbs probably will be the
No. 2 quarterback. Others n
the picture are Bob Mitchell and
Bill Dawson.
The halfbacks likely will come
from Mike Nelson. a dash mar

and Dave Blackwell at fulloack
Three New Opponents
The other end along with
Garda is expected to come from
Jerry File, George Poole or Bill
Robertson, all over 6 feet and
good receivers.
Other tackles in addition to
Pitt are Wayne Stewart, who put
on considerable weight during
the summer and now is over zoo
pounds; Jason CHM, pitcher on
the baseball team; Paul Gold
man, Allan Bugg and Russ Dunn
The guards will come from
Jack Lantz, Dave Simms and
Jimmy Hines while center can
didates are Dave Karl, Bob Fow-

Police Dispatcher
In Arlington Helps
Rockies With Radio

An Arlington police dispatcher
had devised . radio-like trans,
mitter-receiver to teach new ,po-
licemen good radio technique.
Sergt. Henry s. Willett. who
has been a dispatcher for more
than IL years, asked a radio
engineer to build the unit to help
rockies overcome mike fright
and learn how to use a micro
phone. The receiver-transmitters
were built by William Hoovler of
Communications, Inc. radio con-
sultantS to the county, and do
mated to Sergt. Willett.
They are virtually identical In
design and operation to radios
and microphones in the police
scout cars but are connected by
wire. The present training
method is to use scout cars on
the road which interferes with
regular station calls.
