Show Sports Here and There by Al Ablett Well, Dunlap got beat by Coley Wallace. Just a case of a good little man meeting a good big man. Must have been a great fight, for the paper said Wallace collapsed at the end of the scrap. But 22 pounds is just too much. The fights last week in Salt Lake proved to me that this boy Kid Leon has the makings of a good boy. He had been down with a cold before his fight but got a draw with Nicholes of Boise, one of the best in the Pacific Northwest. North-west. Will try and show this boy on the first Gemmell club card. Kid Leon is a former Bingham boy. His name is Gustove Leon. Pancho, his brother, was one of the best known boys in Bingham. Have had an opportunity to watch the high school basketball team practice the last couple of nights, so here is some kind of a line on the team. Coach Allsop has four men back from last year and with their experience they seem to have the inside track on starting berths. Nick Rekoutis and George Apostal on the guard line and Gary LaComb paring with Sonny Son-ny . Robertson on the forward line. There are four boys putting put-ting on a ding dong battle for the center post, big Brent Peter- ' son, Marion CowdelL Jack Man-nion Man-nion and Ronald Huntsman. Peterson Pe-terson is a junior and Jack Man-nion Man-nion is a sophomore. Huntsman and Cowdell are seniors. It looks like the success of the team lays in this center spot. If one of these boys can fill the bill, Allsop will have a ball club capable of making mak-ing a race. Of course this is by no means the boys that will open the season, because this is one of the best squads I have seen at Bingham high. As far as spirit foes every boy out is giving his est and there are some good looking kids, so any one of them may be the spark. - Sunny has Julie Gallegos, Pete Niksich, Frank English, Eddie Muhar,. Wilford Coca, Harold Smith, Chris Katis, Raymond Garamendi, Phil Ochoa and Non-das Non-das Roumpas besides the boys already mentioned. So your pick is as good as anyone's at this stage of the game. They played Park City last week and lost 39 to 29, but as Sunny has always used these pre-season games to see what he has, these games mean nothing. .They play their first home game next Wednesday at 2:45 p.m. with Morgan. But as I watch this squad I am convinced that they will give a good account of themselves. See you next week. AL |
