Rolls 2971 for Second In Five-Man Class

DETROIT, April 12 (U. P).— Despite some bad breaks, the Weber Dalry Quintet from Joliet, Ill, stole the show .at the American Bowling Congress last night with a 2971

"| total for second place in the five-

| man team event. | After seven strikes, Andy Oakes of the milkmen muffed the eighth with a solid pocket| shot that left

‘ the 8-pin. Then Will Connors, who|

set the pace with 647, drew an 8-10 split in the 10th Ir me of the final stanza. . The highly touted pictures team of | Burbank, Cal, stopped with a 2698, which left them

far out of the money. Paced by

Maxie: Stein, holder of the all-time all-events record of 2070, the Californian had been expected to place high in the final standings. Stein himself rolled only 558, with 167-184-2017. Fans look for an end to the lowscoring trend thi the arrival of nationally-known talent. The Chicago Budweisers, fifth last year with 3040, are among the ranking teams of the tournament. Star of the Budweisers is Chubby Joe Wilman, who hit the third all-time allrevents high last year with 2028. Other threats are Joseph Gills, Chicago insurance team, and Collingswood Sales of Cleveland.

states of the Midwest, and the Mis-

[spur Valley, another incubator of

good material. There were plenty of talent seekers in the stands in Indianapolis, Columbus and Champaign, wheres state high school tournaments were held." An agent of a-Southern school

entered the dressing room of one of the better tournament teams in Columbus and attempted to give a star a sales talk right there on the spot. He was given the bum’s rush by tournament officials, and not in a gentle manner, either. Obviously it was the wrong time and place- for the forager’s ap-. proach. - Tactics of that kind inflame Midwestern college coaches and make it all the tougher for Southern seats of learning to make headway with varsity timber of the North.

Rosy Offers Prevail

Southern schools are offering the same inducements to hoop luminaries as they are to pigskin standouts —tuition, books, room and board and spending money. The result no doubt will be that in three or four years the brand of basketball played in Dixie will compare favorably with that of any other section of the United States. When: George Glamack was named All-American center the past winter, he was the first Southern player accorded the honor in more than a decade. And Glamack, who performed for North.Carolina, registered from Johnstown, Pa. The biggest drawback to. Southern basketball, according to Roy

| Mundorft, veteran coach of Georgia

Tech, has been a lack of adequate playing space. i.

Ten Top-Notch Gyms

There are far fewer top-notch ‘lgymnasiums in Dixie than elsewhere. : Many secondary schools play on outdoor courts. And good basketball players can’t be developed outdoors. Basketball attendance was off this year, as much as 20 to 25 per cent in many centers, including high school play in Indiana, where so many of the stars are developed. George Keogan, Notre Dame

il coach, traces the decline to the type {of game.

“There is no sciehce left,” he insists. “There are too many goons in college basketball now . . . too many goon offensives. Just let a tall goon park under a basket and he slops in shots by virtue of height alone, without skill or grace.” But regardless of any decrease in attendance and George Keogan’s opinion of the current type of game, the South seems determined to put its basketball on a plane with its football. And Dixie’s schools won't fail beof lack of spirited enterprise.

Set at Fortville

In spite of today’s snow and bad weather, the Fortville Golf Club announced the first pro-amateur tournament of the season, to be held next Monday. Each team will be composed of one professional and one amateur, and the amateurs will be allowed one-fourth their club handicaps. The entry fee will be $2.50, which will entitle players to participate in both the tourney and a chicken dinner. Bob Tinder, Fortville pro, is in charge of arrangements for the tourney.

Tribesmen Head For Alabama

(Continued from Page 29)

and Art Doll got their ears pinned. Both teams were in a slugging mood but the Tribe infield fell apart and at least seven of Kansas City’s runs were, scored after the Redskins booted chances to retire the side. Scott and Newman walloped home runs for Indianapolis and Priddy and Derry found the circuit range for the Blues. Dick West paced the Tribe attack with a pair of doubles and a single and Priddy and Bordagary supplied Kansas City’s big punch. Priddy and Rizzuto were tops around the keystone, just like last year, and they worked together like a couple of magicians. They pulled three double plays to stem Tribe gttacks and it was difficult to get a ball past them. Bennie Zentara did the best work on the Indianapolis infield and got one-hit, drew a pair of walks and met the ball hard on two other occasions. The Indians had 12 runners stranded to six for the Blues, and a long hit here or there in the clutch would have made a big difference in the score. “The law of averages says we will bunch our blows some day and maybe the boys are saving up for the regular race,” Manager Griffin said as he worked up a sweat over ‘left on bases.”

The Rangers took a 3-2 lead in their best-of-seven final series last night by defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs, 2-1, in two overtime periods. The teams meet in what prove to be the deciding game rrow night. For the third successive time a capacity crowd—13,694—watched the Rangers take an early lead on Neil Colville’s first period goal, drop to a tie when Syl Apps scored in the second and then win out on Defenseman Murray Patrick's counter at 11:43 of the second overtime period. It was the second Stanley Cup game Patrick decided with an overtime tally. His goal.against Bos-
