Aquinas Loss Spurs
Post MOrtem Talk
BY LOU FABRO
TIMES SPORTS EDITOR

North's convincing 1876 triumph over previously un-
beaten Aquinas in a City League battle which earlier had
been tabled as the game of the year in local high school
circles, opened the gate to a flood of post-mortems by arm
chair coaches.
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1957-11-01

ing them to a meager total Of Is
points while rolling up 153 tai
lies.
North, although defending
its 1856 title, had taken it on
the chin twice, once In . league
encounter against South -
team that Aqvinas had blanked.
/ Considering the record. it look
ed like Aquinas could master the
Polar Bears. But it wasn't in the
cards.
Playing the role of Villain was
the pesky flu bug, which manag-
ed to KO the entire Aquinas team.
So hard hit were the Terriers,
that on the original date for the
game, Aquinas could have fielded
a healthy team of four men.
The grid battle, originally set
for Thursday, was showed back to
Saturday, Coach Elwood Petchel
was hopeful that his club would
be strong enough to give North
a run for the money.
The entire team was able to
suit up for the game all right,
but the squad played way below
par. The sluggishness, caused
right after a bout with the flu,
is we'll known by all unfortunates
who have been smitten with the
ailment.
And on Saturday night, Aqvi-
mas was sluggish. The Terriers
were unable to make clean,
crisp tackles or keep UP with
North's pass receivers. Blocking
was $3.50 and as q general re-
svlt--ths game was $3.50, ss-
pseialIy In the eyes Of The Ter
risr rootsrs and impartial fans.
For North Is was . great vic
tory.
AS it is with countless events,
what might have been will never
be known. Looking to the future
can Aquinas still win in the
city title?
Hop-scotching the world Of
sports:
Charlie Baxter, of 212 S. Roys
Ave., made his debut as head foot
ball coach at Pickaway Township
| School a successful one this fall
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1957-11-01

as he guided his Pirates to the
Pickaway County six-man grid
championship.
Baxter, q le4S graduate Of
Holy Family High School, pill.
ofed his grid charges to an IN
beaten season. A 90 deadlock
with Walnut Township closed
out the Teams campaign.
The Pickaway coach played on
Family's basketball team and at
tended the University of Dayton
where he earned his degree in
1852. Since his release from the
Army in 1854, he has held bas-
ketball and baseball coaching po-
sitions in Pickaway County school
system.
Basketball fans will notice
some rule changes in effect this
season. The most apparent will be
the widening of the foul lane to
IL feet, which aids the little man
of the hardcourt.
Another is zone and one" foul
shooting regulation. The offended
team will not receive a. "bonus"
free toss until the fifth personal
foul has been called against the
opposing team in that half.
Good news for rooters Of 81.

The gridders aren't the only
ones to be hit hard by the flu.

week by the same ailment. The
flu bug not only hit the players
but their coach, Dick Scott. as

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
By WILLIAM MORRIS

Il have been trying without
success to find out who was the
Major Grey Of Major Grey's
Chutney fame" writes a Water
bury. Conn.,. reader. Can you
tell me what. If any. other con-
tributions he may have made to
the military or social history of
Great Britain?"
With remarkable uniformity.
basic books of biographical ref
erence have ignored Major
Grey Your columnist was al.
most ready to consign him to the
limbo of corporate but incor-
poreal flgureheads. However
we now have the word of T. j..
Finucan of the Crosse a. Black
well Co. that there once was a
Major Grey.
He was a military officer who
became acquainted with chutney
. relish made of fruits. spices
and herbs-during his service
in India. When he ended his
tour of duty in the Punjab, he
arranged to have the raw ma
terial shipped home and set up|
the manufacture of Major Grey's
Chutney in his home.
With his limited facilities he
couldn't keep abreast of the or
ders. so he made ARRANGEMENTS
Tor Crosse 81 Blackwell to take
over the manufacture and dis
of his product. Accord
ing to Mr.. Finucan, at one
time there were several brands
in competition, such as Colonel
SINNERS Chutney and Sergeant
Murphy's Chutney. Apparently
the belief was that all YOU
needed was a military title as a
guarantee of good sales" But
Major Grey's has outlived them
all-and has made his name a
household word.
Il heard a TV newscaster pro-
nounce 'momentary' as moh-
MEN-tuh-ree last night. Is
there any sanction for this pro-
nunciation?"-M. L. W.. Pitts
burgh.
None whatsoever. This pro-
nunciation might simply have
been a slip of the tongue - but

achieve a more elegant" pro-
nunciation than the one we

Opening lead: Eight of spades

Opening lead: Eight of spades
Whatever disadvantage may
accrue is more than offset by the
possibility of keeping the bidding
low until the full potential of the
partnership hands can be de-
termined.
In today's deal, for example.
forget about Miss Brash's hand
for a moment and just look at
Mr.. Abel's. Suppose he had
opened the bidding with a dia-
mond and his partner had re-
sponded with a spade. Could he
then bid his heart suit at the two
level? No. because his hand is
not strong enough over all.
If partners hand is weak and
she prefers diamonds to hearts.
she has to go to the three level
to show the preference. Holding
a near-minimum himself, Mr..
Abel might find three diamonds
impossible to make.
With a minimum opening,
then. it is usually better to open
the higher of two touching suits
as Mr.. Abel did in the bidding
of today's deal. He started with
a heart and bid two diamonds
over Miss Brash's one-spade re-
spouse.
Now Miss BraSh, if she held
weak hand. could show a prefer
ence for diamonds by merely
passing. and a preference for
hearts by bidding two hearts.
Mr.. Abel's play was not as
good as his bidding. Against the
five-diamondS contract. Mr.. Dale
opened the eight of spades. Mr..
Abel took the f1nesse and it lost.
Back came a club and. since the
enemy still held control of
trumps. there was nothing to do
but to take this finesse. too.
When that lost, all hope was
gone.
Shed no tears for Mr.. Abel be-
cause both black kings we're
wrong. AS Miss Brash iustifi-
ably inquired. what was he try
ing to do. make six?
He should have played safely
for flve-odd by going right up
with the ace of spades at trick
one and firing trumps until the
ace was knocked out.
He would have lost a spade
trick (Which would not have been
necessary if Mr.. Dale had held
the king). but he would not
have lost club.
He would have had time to
pick up trumps and to discard
two of dummy's clubs on his
two long hearts. The queen of
clubs then could have been
ruffed on the board.
