Although Randall Cleaners
and Blue Ridge Sports lead the
Tuesday Metro Merchants at
Congressional, Larry’s Shell
Service set the records last
week. Their captain, Lee Sch
roeder, held them down to a
1093 game with his 171. How
ever they achieved a 2951
scratch set They were able to
take only three from Dave Mel

moved into third, while Garden
Gate Nursery defeated Twin

The Washington AU-S tar

Bobby Anger, Casimir Pisula,
Jimminy Moore, Bob Martini
and Mario Lanza Segretti.
Some time ago Elmer Snyder
hit his first 700—a 701 on lanes

these lanes,” A1 had said pre
viously, “you can’t hit 500." Al

Sherwood Upsets
B-CC on Fouls;
Northwood Wins
Snow washed out most of
the top basketball games
scheduled for the first big
weekend of the season, but
most teams will see action
this afternoon in non-league
contests.
A pair of foul shots in the
final 10 seconds of play by
Kenny Johnson gave Sherwood
a 40-39 Montgomery County
Conference upset win over Be
thesda-Chevy Chase on Friday
night. A younger brother of a
former Northwood ace, Dave
Farmer, paced Northwood with
24 points as the Indians defeat
ed Richard Montgomery, 60-50.
Towering Jim Wendt scored
10 field goals and a pair of foul
throws as Blair defeated Ken
wood, 57-34.
Earlier in the week, Gaithers
burg had opened the high school
season by downing Glenelg, 36-
32, in a ragged ball-control con
test. Gaithersburg overcame a
Glenelge lead in the last five
minutes to win.
Peary outscored Charlotte
Hall 17-5 in the final quarter to
win its first varsity game, 43-36,
Saturday.
Four contests scheduled for
Saturday, including the impor
tant clash between County and
State champion, Blair, and
Wheaton, were cancelled be
cause of the weather.
There is a possibility that the
Blair-Wheaton game will be re
scheduled for Wheaton at 3:30
p.m. today.

Johnson this afternoon at 3:40;
Wilson plays at Bethesda-Chevy
Chase; Poolesville at Longfel
low at 3:30 p.m.; Frederick at
Peary at 3:45; and Good Coun
sel plays its opener against
Richard Montgomery at 3:30
p.m.
MJC Plays
Loop Game
After Loss
An icy trip home Saturday
night didn’t make Montgom
ery Junior College’s loss to
Trenton JC any easier to
bear, but all this will be for :
gotten by the Knights to
night as they seek their sec
ond Tri-State Junior College
Conference win against
Catonsville at Wheaton High
gym.
A win over Catonsville will
put MJC over the .500 mark for
the early season. The Knights
won their opener against West
Point Prep, lost to the Navy
Plebes, 95-85, then snapped back
for a league win against St.
Mary’s, 9848, before losing to
Trenton, 89-81.
Most encouraging in the early
season has been the consistent
scoring of sophomore Rudy
Rutelonias and freshman Bob
Farmer of Silver Spring. Rute
lonians played for DeMatha
while Farmer came from North
wood.
Rudy is picking up where he
left off last season. He hit for
25 points in the opener and got
26 against Navy and 33 against
Trenton. Farmer was high man
against St. Mary’s with 21.
A paralyzing second half de
fense produced an 81-51 victory
for the Montgomery Junior Col
lege Knights over West Point
Prep on December 1, at Fort
Belvoir. The game, the season’s
opener for the Knights, marked
the college coaching debut of
Don Drown, former basketball
coach at Wheaton High School.
With Prep holding a 30-29
edge at halftime, the Knights
applied a full-court press in the
second half which befuddled the
Little Cadets.
Defensive hustle by the MJC
big men also proved to be a
vital factor in the victory. Of
fensively, the leading scorers
were Montgomery's Ruty Rute
lonis with 25 points and Harry
Burchette with 19 points,
at 10:30 a.m.
Smallwood, Physical Director,
Boys’ Club of Silver Spring, JU.
8-6119, between 3 p.m. and 9
p.m. Closing date for entering
teas will be 3 p.m., December 16.
