The club has been directed this
year by Jack Baird, Intermediate
Boy Skater, who did a fine job.
Clubs desire for an experienced
adult coach appears soon to be
filled as three offers have been made
after the fine New Baltimore show
ing. Jimmy Thompson, Sr. Men’s
Skating star, Mel Johnson, former
skating star and Sam Angott
U.A.W.A. coach all expressed a de
sire to take over the kids for the
coming year. The City Recreation
Department is sponsoring the Skat
ing Club although the club will
function with its own officers but
must have the Supt. of Recreation
co-sign any expenditure of club
moneys.

For their game with Mount Car
mel—St. Pats have gone all out.
They have obtained the gym over
at St. Josephs and on that large
floor—what a battle should be seen.
So you Basketball fans—the Mount
Carmel-St. Pats game scheduled for
February 20th will be played at St.
Joseph’s gym. Come on over and
see a hot game.
Showing that the fighting Irish
are real fighters—St. Pats last Tues
day night came through in a whirl
wind finish to win over All 6aints
36 to 30. Trailing at the half and
being outplayed these fighting Irish
w'on going away from the boys from
Detroit. This gives St. Pats three
straight wins. A great finish to you
St. Pats.
Over at New Baltimore last Sun
day several of the local kids made
good in a big way at the speed
races. Dick Classon beat Dick

local kids showed up swell.
In the Sharpies Research Bowl
ing League Dunn still holds the
high average over Holdren. Dunn is
in the top spot with an average of
165. Holdren in the second place
has a 162. Team number three has
a seen game lead over number five,
winning 52 games and losing 35.
The high single game is still tied
with Self and Davidson holding the
lead with a game of 265. The high
two games is held by Davidson with
a nice 476. Team number six holds
the lead in the team high single
game with 1092. In the team high
series number one is leading with a
3060.
You sport fans—get ready for that
old timers hockey game. The both
teams have lined up some of the
cream of the hockey field of a cen
tury or so ago. Whiz-bang Miller
and his bunch of wheel chair fugi
tives are doing their best to get
enough of that energy business to be
able to stand on their own feet.
The vitamin business has been go
ing pretty good as these old guys
are buying everything in sight, to
help them in their hour of need. I
like that last part—their hour of
need—these guys are just so badly
crippled up it will be like taking
candy from a small child for my
gang to get out and trim that well
known pair of pants off of them.
This gang I have lined up are cer
tainly the tops—the best there is
around these parts, pardner. The
date will be announced in next Mon
day’s News-Herald. Watch for it!
The Mount Carmel Ushers Bowl
ing League is in one swell three cor

Drop Came to
Friars Ale Five
Wyandotte Cab dropped a 39-30
game to the Friars Ale five at
Hackett Field House last Sunday.
Friars, a colored aggregation and
one of the leading teams in Detroit,
were given a real tussle by the locals
who lost the game In the final three
minutes. At that point the Cabbies
trailed 30-29 and Cooney Zulewski,
the locals’ star guard, was banished
from the game on personal fouls.
Playing the final minutes without
Zulewski and also the other start
ing guard, Bob Smith, who did not
play because of an Injured leg, the
locals could not cope with the speedy
colored team who rallied to sew up
the game.
Up to that point, the cabbies
sparked by Row Schwochow, gave
the spectators their money’s worth
as they matched Friars almost bas
ket for basket. Schwochow led both
teams in scoring 16 points, while
Willie King bagged 12 markers to
lead Friars.
Efforts are being made to sched
ule a game between the cabbies and
Mansfield Clothes, coached by Cincy
Sachs and conceded to be the out
standing team in Detroit with a
record of 25 wins in 28 games.

The Wyandotte Cab went into
Detrpit last week and played the
fast-going Friars Ale cagers. The
Ale boys defeated the locals but it
was a honey of a battle all the way
through. The game was lost by the
Cabbies in the last three minutes of
play and up until then it was any
one's game.
