Roosevelt Nine Looms as Keen Contender in Title Series
tjcmrtg fIfetf puorts
SATURDAY, APRIL 10, 1943—B—5
Victories Over
Prep, Gonzaga
Impressive
Generally High Caliber
Of Teams Whetting
Fans' Interest
Roosevelt’s Rough Riders, seldom
• factor In the high school baseball
championship race, figure as real
contenders in the series starting
next Tuesday after two impressive
victories this week. The Riders
nosed out a good Gonzaga team yes
terday, 6-5, and earlier gamed a
one-sided triumph over Georgetown
Prep.
Pan interest in the series has
picked up tremendously after the
generally higher caliber of play dis
played by public high nines yester
day. Earlier games this week found
them mostly on the losing side
against outside nines, but in five
games yesterday they won four and
tied the other. Central's defending
champions, after taking a pasting
from Gonzaga on Wednesday,
staged a comeback to nose George
Washington High, 11-10, and may
be moving into a winning stride.
Coolidge and Western Win.
Coolidge and Western were the
other winners, the Colts trimming
Devitt, 15-1, and Western nosing out
National Training School. 4-3. A
3-3 tie in 10 innings was played by
Wilson and St. Albans.
Charley Glazos, Roosevelt's pitch
er yesterday, had early moments of
wildness and gave up 10 hits, per
mitting three runs in the third in
ning. After the fourth, however,
When another Eagle marker was
scored, he held Gonzaga scoreless as
his mates began to turn on the pow
er and Roosevelt scored three runs
with none out in the ninth to win.
Bob Johnson, rookie outfielder,
supplied unexpected batting power
yesterday and helped raise Roose
velt's stock. He got three hits, one
a double, and scored three runs.

confetti chase tomorrow morning in
Rock Creek Park. It will get under
way at Equitation Field at 11 o'clock.
Horsemen beyond draft call and

the horse will be determining fac
tors. Jumping will not be required
on the course marked with confetti.
Tokens will be collected by the con
testants at several points on the
course and must be redeemed at the
end of the event or disqualification
will result.
A trophy and four ribbons will be

Plans Weekly Ring
Card at Uline's
Alexander, Victor Over
Archibald, to Fight
Again Next Week
Promoter Goldie Ahearn, who
operates boxing for the Liberty
Athletic Club at Uline Arena, be
lieves there’s an upswing in in
terest in the ring game here, and
plans to cash in on it by running
shows every Friday hereafter in
stead of twice a month.
A number of interesting programs
recently, both at Uline's and at
Turner’s Arena, has brought a
slight increase in attendance. The
best Uline crowd in some months
turned out last nighW2,250 cus
tomers paid $2,740—to see Carroll
(Kid) Alexander, 22-year-old local
boy, outpoint Joey Archibald, twice
a featherweight champion, but who
no longer has the speed and zip
he displayed in his heyday when
he was a Washington favorite.
Alexander Fights Next Week.
Ahearn will bring Alexander Hack
as a headliner next week, and de
clares “I’m going to get the best
featherweight available for him.”
The fans didn’t approve entirely
of the Alexander-Archibald bout
last night. It was slow in spots
from a spectator's standpoint, with
frequent clinching and holding.
Archibald, about 5 pounds over his
best fighting weight, seldom made a
lead, being content most of the time
with tying up ris green opponent.
The slow second and third rounds
brought forth boos and stomping,
but action picked up a bit thereafter
as the kid tossed more punches from
outside.
Many of his lefts missed as Archi
bald ducked under and inside, but
in the sixth Alexander began to
bring his left down and made several
effective connections.
Balloting Is Divided.
There was no doubt about the
winner. Alexander taking at least
five rounds, but still Archibald re
ceived the vote of Judge Jimmy
Sullivan, while Judge Bob Eller and
Referee Eddie La Fond declared for
Alexander.
In the semifeature, Louis Kid
Cocoa survived a cut over his right
eye, received in the first round, to
outbox Kid Robinson, a slugger
from Philadelphia. In the third
eight-rounder. Herbert Marshall
stopped Tom Campanella In 2:54 of
the third round.
In opening four-rounders, Jackie
I Goodman decisioned Herschel Todd,
and Jimmy McAllister knocked out
Willie Mack in 2:45 of the third.
