spingarnc Coach Calls
Present Team Better
Than Winner Of 81
By Bob Hanson

spingarn High. undefeated In
the league last year when it was
In Division II. Is finding 1t no
different 80 far this season under
the new setup integrating both
divisions.
The Green Wave took all
eight games in It's division last
year. Only six are played in each
division Of the league this sea-
son. With Phelps. Eastern and
Armstrong remaining. Spingarn
may not finish with perfect
record although 1t figures to
make the playoffs. :,
But whatever Its record at the
end Of the season, Coach Dave
Brown Is liking this team better
than last years, that had che
sensational Elginz Rabhit1 Bay
lor, who finistIed with q 36.1
average foE league games.
Armstrong Spikes Rally.
Springarns looked good, par
ticularly In the last two quar-
ters, in It's 58-46 victory over
Anacostia last night in the sec
ond game of q double-header at
Tech. In the opener, Armstrong
STAYED on a furious rally by
Phelps to win 61-55, its eighth
straight for the season.
s'This team" Brown said OF
Gpringarn after the game. "is
more Of q unit, Is better bal
ar1ced than last year. OF course.
We had Baylor. but the other
players fed him and he could
make any kind Of shot. AS q re-
suit he was q big scorer and we
piled up the points.
"We're high on this club and
the boys are playing the kind Of
ball that we hope they'll con-
tinue the remainder of the sea-
SON"
For the first half, Spingarn
and Anacostia played it close to
the vest with Anacostia taking
only q 22-l9 lead at .halftime.
The Indians lost Don Rhine. g.
foot-3, shortly after the third
period started and his rebound
ing was sorely missed.
Spingarn Trio Clicks.
But 1t is doubtful II Rhine's
presence for the full game could
have stopped Francis Saunders,
Tony Washington and Lloyd
Murphy Of Spingarn from put
ting their team out in front to
stay in the third period.
In q breakdown of scoring in
the last half, Saunders made
13s of his total of Is points,
Washington IL of his total Of 13
and Murphy all of his IL. Sping-
arm made 80 points in the last
tive periods and this trio was
responsible for So.
Wayne Thomerson, Bob john
son and Calvin Knott kept Ana
costa in the running until
Spingarn's trio ganged up.
Thomerson finished with 16
points, johnson 10 and Knott 10.
In the opener, Armstrong built
UP q 1928 halftime lead only to
see Phelps bounce back to make
q game of it in the closing stages
against the Generals reserves.
Armstrong shuttled subs in
and out of the game but still
managed to keep ahead mostly
on the shooting Of Orenzie
Hooks, with IA points, and Char
ley Jenkins and Bob Green, each
with 10.
Ben Warley, Phelps 6-foot-5
forward, kept the Tradesmen in
the thick OF 1t, scoring % points,
q good percentage of them tapins
on shots missed by his team
mates.

Rollins Flaws
Sussex County
Election Bill
1t. Gov. Says Measure To
Abolish Dept. OF Elec-
tiOns Is Politically In
spired.

Lieutenant Governor John w.
Rollins said today that the bill to
abolish the Department of Elec-
tiOns for Sussex County obvious
ly is politically inspired, although
l accept the word of it's sponsor
that he is trying merely to save
money for the county"
The Democrat bill would place
the work of the Sussex Department
Of Elections in the Office of the
Clerk of Peace.
Mr. Rollins, assisted by State
Senator Thomas L. Johnson, (R-
Rehoboth), and aided by members
of the Board of Elections and a
large group of citizens of Sussex
County, led the fight against the
bill during a public hearing at Do
yer on Monday afternoon.
The Lieutenant Governor pointed
out that if the bill was good for
Sussex County as the Democrats
argued, it would be just as good for
Kent County He emphasized also
that the Sussex Department has
two Republican and one Democrat
member, while the Kent DepaBt-
ment has two Democrats and one
Republican.
Il am happy to know that the
Democrats want to save money fOI
Sussex County. / wish they would
talk with the Levy Court Commits
siOners about that as they are al
Democrats and perhaps they car
tell them how to reduce theiI
spending which would avoid Z
raise in tax rates for Sussex COun
1 ty," said Mr.. Rollins.
