Show III ! -- II I - i Sports Here and There by Al Ablett Again Bingham was picked to lose, this time to Judge, but the boys got hot and came up with a 64-44 victory. As I have said before Coach All3op has a young team, and with youngsters anything any-thing can happen. My contentions conten-tions are that given a break here and there this team will go a long ways. They have a tough schedule this coming week. Playing Murray Mur-ray tonight (Friday) at Murray, then taking on the talented Tooele Too-ele crew at Copperton Tuesday night. I think they can get over Murray and if this game doesn't take too much out of them, Tooele Too-ele is in for a tough evening. "Sonny" Robertson seems to have proved the spark they needed and Gary LaComb has come right along with him. Re-koutis Re-koutis and Apostal are showing freat form and if Gallegos and aldivar reach their potentials, "Sunny" will have a real ball club. Robertson has had a heavy cold all week, but the rest of the bunch are ready to go. Hard to realize with the weather wea-ther we have been having that Spring training is only about three weeks away. Most of the teams are sending their Battery men to camp about the middle of February. They don't seem to I be having much trouble signing the tooys up. But almost every team is looking for that one key man. So in the near future I look for some real big deals. I see the fight game is again on the pan in New York state. An attack on a referee and match maker by a defeated fighters manager. Big brave fellow, over six feet tall and two hundred lbs. took a swing at Miller, a referee that fought as a featherweight. feather-weight. They then attacked Wiell the match maker. Wiell is close to sixty but is fairly big so the manager called his brother in to help on this one. No they won't have to kill boxing, it will kill itself. Neal, the manager was suspended for life by the New York commission. This is a step in the right direction. But it should go further if boxing is to remain a sport. Every manager and boxer should be investigated investigat-ed to find out just who is behind be-hind each one. In this way they may rid the sport of all the gangsters gang-sters and human parasites. Boy when they do this be sure and hold your nose because the stench will be terrible, but it is the only solution for a real sick patient. See you next week. AL |
