Show Here and Tliere . by AL ABLETT The Bingham high school made their debut before the home fans an auspicious occasion last Friday Fri-day night by taking Grantsville over the rough places to the tune of 51-26. The boys did everything with that ball but make it talk. They passed and played the floor in flawless style, and Polllck and Callen kept the strings hot as they hit the hoop from all angles. The game opened with Grantsville Grants-ville making a basket on the first tip off. But If my memory serves me right this was the only time they were in the lead. Polllck Pol-llck then took command and with his mates feeding him the ball he scored eight points before the cowboys could holler whoa. Callen was a bit off form In the first half, but he found himself him-self in the second balf, and split the strings with some beauties. M'ayne played a swell floor game, handling the ball in nice shape. The guard line with G'hurioh and .Saslcti was everything the word implies. Their motto was the same as the battle cry of the Marne, "They iShall Not Pass", and they didn't. Briggs was the only man on the Grantsville team that had any luck at all In penetrating the Bingham defense. The team meets Oranlte tonight to-night on the home floor in a game that should go far in shaping shap-ing the destiny of both teams. Cecil Baker has put together another great team. One that has an air-tight defense and a dead shot In this boy Rupp. If the boys play the ball they can play they should win, but it is golng to be a ding dong battle from whistle to gun. On Monday night they played the Bennett Paint and Glass force from Salt Lake and it was Just a work out. Coach Allsop used every man on the squad and the results were the same. At the end of the game the strings on the baskets were smoking. Gemmell Gem-mell had doubled the score 64-32. I think the game was Just what they needed to put thorn on edge for to-night. Monday there was a crowd that packed every nook and cranny of the big club gym. So Joe Louis added another victim to his string. AVhen Joe took on John Henry It was a nice friendly gesture from one friend to another. Because there are a couple of light heavyweights in this country that I think can take John. But he will make about $20,000 out of the light, and that ain't hay. Their are two young heavyweights heavy-weights coming along, that I want you to watch. This fellow McClusky of New Jersey, who is ohly 19 years old and has won his last eleven flights by knockouts, knock-outs, and Johnny Paycheck of Des Molnen, Iowa. They have been bringing Johnny along slow, but his last out he stopped Al Ettor of Philadelphia in seven beats and this Is something that all the good boys have been trying to do. John Henry Lewis couldn't do it in 42 rounds of fighting. I met Paycheck's manager here last winter with Dempsey, "Pink-ey" "Pink-ey" George, a well known bantamweight ban-tamweight oT a few years ago. I know Paycheck is being handled right. Ping Pong Is enjoying a good year at the club. Billie "Flash" Brown, Ross Pino, "Sailor" Mc-N'eal Mc-N'eal and Leo Brisk are among the best players we have. In bowling Cliff Butterfleld hong up m new high game in the Gemmell league. lie shot a 208, beating my score by one pin.
