Show IB.D.A.A. FLASHES . by Jim Abplanalp ELECT BASEBALL MANAGER The BDAA Board of Directors in the meeting Monday night, voted unanimously for the selection selec-tion of Don Gust as the new base ball manager. Don will take over the reins of the BDAA nine in the new Utah State League, and should do a fine job. Don has had a lot of baseball experience, throughout his high school career, ca-reer, then playing in the old Utah Industrial league, and has had three or four years in the professional pro-fessional ranks. Last season he performed at third base for the local ball club, and has played at nearly every position. With Don's experience and interest in the BDAA sports programs, the Board of Directors feel they have made a wise selection. TOURNEYS BEGIN Final hoop play for the "A" and "B" tourney hopefuls began this week, with the big schools having their first 16 team meet. The A schools began play Wednesday Wed-nesday and will wind up tomorrow tomor-row night. Next Wednesday, March 13, will be opening round of the B school four day meet at the B.Y.U. Fieldhouse. Last years' champ in the A tourney, Provo, is back again, tout Pleasant Pleas-ant Grove of the (B ranks did not gain a berth in this one. The local Bingham Miners, under Coach Udell Wankier will go into the B tourney next week as pre-tourney favorites, but Wankier and his boys will take nothing for granted, as they know all competition is tougher! when the big meet begins. Most of the local mainstringers saw action in last year's tourney and should be somewhat acquainted with the Fieldhouse floor. Castillo, Cas-tillo, Rekoutis, Leonard, and Lovat all played on the runner-up runner-up squad last year, and the entire en-tire Bingham crew is determined determin-ed to win all four games. Good luck to you, Miners! |
