Marshall Improved
After Sinking Night

Three hitch-hikers in the car
escaped with minor injuries.
Marshall, who broke 10 world
freestyle swimming records in
1850, made a comeback last year
as butterfly swimmer after a
four-year retirement. He COM
|peted in the 1856 Olympics, plac-
ing fifth in the 200-meter but
|terf1y.
Marshall gained his first fame
as a swimmer in 1947, when he
was IT. In the Australian cham
Ipionships that year he won four
titles in the 900. 440, $50 and
l ,650-yard freestyle races. He
won the same title again in 1913
and competed for Australia in
the Olympic games. placing Sec
|ond in the $500 meters and third
in the 400 meters.
After the Olympics. Marshall
decided to enter Yale to train
under the famous coach Robert
j. H. Kiphuth. The university
granted him a scholarship.
At Yale, Marshall virtually re-
wrote the record book for free
style races from 200 meters to
l mile. During 1850 he turned
in a dozen world record perform
ances. some of which were not
recognized because they weren't
made in standard size pools. He
continued his record breaking
through 1851 and in 1852 he
again represented Australia in
the Olympics.

one distance race, the eighth, at

This is the first racing at
Charles Town since last summer.

suspended this rule, opening the

1t was becoming well known
that Gonzaga's basketball team
lacked that good fifth starter, a
boy who could help Jim ODon-
nell with the outside work while
Dan Slattery, Tom Coleman and
Tommy Matan patroled under
meath the hackboards. Coach
Tommy O'Keefe is almost con-
WINGED now that he's licked that
weakness.
Although Matan was the high
scorer with 81 points, Don Mudd
was the most important player
for Gonzaga last night in the
57-52 defeat of Carroll. The
game was played in front of a
packed house at DeMatha after
DeMatha beat Mackin. 72-49, in
the first game of the Catholic
League doubleheader.
Mudd is a 6-foot-1 senior who
didn't play for any Gonzaga
team a year ago. He played for
st. Michael's in the CYO Inter-
mediate League and joined the
Eagles for their campaign in the
summer league at the Boys Club
Of Washington, where he excelled.
But he wasn't a starter when the
season opened.
Stuck to Howell
Mudd should have locked up a
regular job last night, however.
o'Keefe assigned Mudd the job
Of guarding Jim Howell and he
stuck to the Carroll scoring ace
like a leech. He limited Howell
to two field goals and scored
nine points himself, seven in the
crucial fourth quarter when the
Eagles roared from behind.
Il took a gamble putting Dom
ME on Howell" O'Keefe said,
but he looked loose out there in
the first quarter and I stayed
with him. l can't say enough
good things about him; let's Just
say he's what we've been looking
for"
O'Keefe opened with the other
four players in a zone defense but
Carroll cracked it open when
Monk Malloy hit three outside
shots and the Lions made seven
free throws to take a IT'LL lead
into the second quarter. 'Matan
hit 10 points in the second period
to help narrow the gap to 44-4l
at halftime and both clubs scored
Il points in the third. But Cole
man had fouled out with three
minutes gone after intermission
and his substitute, Bill Rowan,
fast was heading in the same
direction.
Midway in the fourth period,
however, Mudd made a Jump
shot to put Gonzaga in COM
mand at 50-49. Hank Valencia
sank a goal for a three-point
lead, Howell made foul shot
and Mudd made two foul shots
with 1880 to go and Gonzaga
stalled and coasted in.
Eagles Edge Slight.
Willie Wells and AL Ferraro
did a fine job in rebounding with
the taller Eagles, who held only
a 4l-40 edge in that phase. But
Gonzaga won the game on field
goal accuracy, hitting % Of 81
shots while sank is of So.
Ferraro was CAROLS top
scorer with Is points and Malloy,
Wells and Howell got 10 each.
