The three rookies Earite their first year of proleadonad | hockey with the dnlivn fie Capitals have made a hit with the fans. Left to right (above) they are Gordon Sherritt, Cliff Simpson and Fred Weaver. Sherritt, defenseman, likes the rough play; Simpson, center, has had a rookie’s share of goals and assists, and Weaver, the team’s interceptor, has scored once, likes to break up opponents’ plays and always bodychecks a huge defenseman. These rookies will play tonight at 8:30 o’clock at the Coliseum against Buffalo.

Assistant Ga. Tech Coach Pays

Dividends on Salary Increases

NEW YORK, Nov. 19 (U. P).—

He's only an assistant coach but}

he’s paying big dividends on the three salary increases it took to keep him at Georgia Tech. .His name is Robert E. Lee Dodd and because he has guided the Ramblin’ Wreck through two vital games with victories he won the

United Press coach of the week}

award.

Dodd became acting head coach two weeks ago when Bill Alexander was ordered to a hospital by the doctors for a rest. Alexander’s tall and slender assistant, probably the greatest field general that Tennessee ever had, took the team over before the Kentucky game and guided Tech to a 47-to-7 victory over the club which Georgia barely had been’ able to] ~~ nose out, 7 to 8. Last Saturday he sent the Engineers against Alabama, one of the toughest teams in the country, and again his boys came through, this time, 7 to 0. Dodd went to Tech 1i years ago

On a trip he is the life of the party, mingles with the boys all the time, plays all kinds of games with them—and wins. A native of Knigsport, Tenn. Dodd has taken over coaching basketball and baseball since going to Tech as backfield mentor in 1931. Since that time he has had offers from three big southern schools to take over as head coach, but Alexander raised his pay each time in order to keep him at Tech. Dodd is 37, and the father of two children, a boy and a girl. One of Tech’s best backfield men

By UNITED PRESS The Hershey Bears maintained their Eastern division lead over the Providence Reds in the American Hockey league race Wednesday night by nosing out the Washington Lions, 4-3, as the Reds defeated the New Haven Eagles, 7-4. Harry Frost led the Bears to victory with two goals as both teams concentrated all their scoring in the second period. Hergert and Fitzgerald tallied Hershey's two other counters. O'Neill, Jamieson and Gauthier hit the net for the Lions. Providence was forced info an overtime session before subduing the Eagles. Whitelaw put the Reds out in front with a first period goal but McManus tied it up. Demarco, ¥orsey and Horeck scored for Providence in the second but New Haven tiled it up again in the third on goals by Patterson, N. Smith and Tabor.

| Honey bing Ell Li Bert Sonn,

By JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Nov. 19. — Women turf followers will provide at least

in the United States, our track oracle has predicted. Our prophet is Edgar C. Horn, editor of the Turf and Sport Digest of Baltimore. “Something new has been added

one more prosperous racing season||

to American racing in the last couple of years that is ultraimportant in this war period,” Horn said. . “I mean the women fans— many of whom now are making as

Imuch money in defense plants as

men. The gals on the night shift go to the races in large numbers.”

Proud of Racing’s Role

He was enthusiastic about the feminine fans during his conference with racing writers here, although he had a more pressing matter on his mind. He had come to New York to confer with the writers about the business of sending out ballots in the national poll that will determine whether Alsab or Whirlaway is the “horse of the year”—most heatedly debated issue in all racing. The turf expert was proud of the role that racing had played since Pearl Harbor, He emphasized that the “sport of kings” not only had provided a much-needed divertisement for the war-concerned nation, | but it had out-distanced by far any| other sport in its contribution. .to war relief. He estimated that, by Jan. 1, these contributions will approximate $3,000,000. Speaking of racing in 1942, Horn said: “I believe it was the most prosperous year in turf history, even though the legalized tracks in California were not in operation.

Form Experts

“Despite transportation difficulties, mutuel handles at most tracks set new records. I do not mean that the crowds were larger, because they were not. Attendance fell off But the people who went had more money to wager than in the past. Why, I can remember back in the 1930’s when tracks could

per day. But in this war year, I have estimated that each person who went to the tracks wagered-an average of $60 per day. Virtually

nection, the only racing plant that is questionable is Saratoga. I have heard reports that Saratoga lost But these reports, as yet, have not been confirmed. “Tt has been a great year for racing, and next year should be good, too,” he deflared. “The rapidly increasing number of women who attend the races were an important factor in this year’s success. Next year they will be all-important. And don’t think for a minute that the gals use the old hatpin system of picking, or go for the colors worn by the jockeys. No sir, they study form like experts now, and most of them can give lessons to the men in picking winners.”
