Show ! Sports Here and There by Al Ablett ! j They come and they go but it I will be a long time before we, ithe people of Bingham will see ! another Sandy. Sandy was not ! just another man in our town, ! he was an institution. I knew ihim in Colorado when he still ! had another year to go in college. I He was playing ball in Cripple Creek along with Los Sumnicht, and the fellow was as well thought of there, as he was everywhere ev-erywhere he went. In his career as a coach he has not only molded winning teams but he has been a great influence in the lives of every boy that he came in contact with. 50 if it was to be that he was to leave us I am glad that the commissioner of all leagues saw fit to have Sandy's 1954 baseball team crowned champions of the state. I am sure that he will make the all-star team when that very same commissioner gets ready to pick them. 51 I will say to all the boys that Sandy has coached as he would have said to you, let us play to win but let us also play according to the rules. To his family we give our heartfelt sym pathy because you have lost a great father and husband as we have all lost a great friend. Don't feel much like writing about sports at this time, just take this space to tell the bowlers bowl-ers of Bingham that starting next Monday there will be a Rag time Doubles held at the Club. Each team may enter as many times as they wish and it will run the rest of the month of June. Entry fees will be one dollar a man plus bowling. You can bowl on any pair of alleys. Three games gam-es will be a set and the handicap will be 60 per cent of the difference differ-ence between your average and 200. AL |
