that he had won his title on q
split decision as he sat in his
dressing room after last nights

II thought I had him all the
way" the former onion farmer
said. II did everything you've
got to do to win. forced
the fight. I got in the most
punches"
At first Basilio complained
that Robinson had hit him low
knowingly on one occasion. But
then, in a gracious manner, he
said. "He hit me low. but 1t
didn't matter in the end so why
make an issue Of 1t. Let's Just
say he did 1t unintentionally."
Robinson accepted his defeat
calmly, but he voiced his dis

There are too many things
about boxing I don't like. There

Sherman Likes
'GW'sReserves,
|butNeedsMore

Coach DO Sherman of George
Washington's football team has
more confidence in some of his
reserve players now that he has
watched them in a game, but
he still is doubtful about having
enough for q second team.
Sherman still has to make
final plans for the Colonials'
first home game Friday night
against The Citadel at WASH
ington-Lee High Stadium. As
it looks now. he'll still substi-
tute individually. not with q
full team.
Last Saturdays TO opening
win over William and Mary
showed Sherman that his vet
Grams on the first team are able
to take q lot Of playing without
willing. That they were able
to stand up under the heat in
dicates that they certainly will
have no trouble when more sea-
sonable football weather ar
rives.
Weather Complaint
Speaking Of weather. Sher-
man is complaining about the
way it's treating him this fall.
I'VE didn't have enough hot
weather early this month to
get our boys in real good
shape" he commented yester-
day, land then we run into a
real scorcher for our FIRST
game. And now it's cooled
of again when I could stand
a real hot day Of practice to
work out the bumps and sore
muscles.
There's one thing about
that hot weather last Satur-
day though" he added. Those
players who weren't in con-
dition sure played themselves
into condition in a real hurry"
Sherman agreed with sports
writer's covering the game that
Guard Jim Taylor looked best
of the new men used by the
Colonials. Taylor Is a 5-foot-9.
|2l7-pound sophomore from
Nashville, N. c. Among other
things he's the one who threw
a very important block when
Halfback Mike Sommer scored
'GW's only touchdown.
Movies Of the game show a
real bit Of teamwork between
Taylor and Sommer on that
play. Mike, the left halfback,
drove over through right tackle
on the start of his l5-yard
touchdown jaunt, and then cut
back once again to the left.
Meanwhile. Taylor. from his
left guard post. had crossed
over in front Of Mike as the
latter cut back. Taylor tossed
a neat block that effectively
removed the W6EM linebacker
who a second before was aim
ing for a clean shot at Mike.
Sophomore StandOuts
Among others who came
through well in their first var
sity tests we're Center Ron
Demelfi. a l95-pounder from
Berwick, Pa. and Fullback Bill
Smythe. a N0-pounder from
Havertown. Pa. Both are
sophomores.
Demelfi filled in well as q
guard, in addition to center.
when Sherman ran short of
guards late in the game.
Smythe showed promise of
being a good ball carrier and
an outstanding punter.
In fact the CIV No. 2 back
field Of Quarterback Jerry
Power and Halfbacks Mike
Ennis and Joe Ozefovich. along
with Smythe. was all right. al
though it naturally didn't
match the starting crew. This
week Sherman is toying with
the idea of running it as q
unit instead of subbing the
individuals.
