CREEDON TOURNAMENT HIGHLIGHTS Well the "A" Tourney is over and we just didn't have the horse to retain our championship, but our team gave good account of themselves. They went down with flying colors after scaring the day-lis- ht out of East. I, VW1 K -- f - h At the spac-ious Ceorge Al-- , bert Smith Field-hou- se in Provo, where the first and third day game were playT ed, I compared the facilities with the old Deseret Gym, site of the basketball tour- - badges on the floor after this (tun-ning setback. In 1946, American Fork arrived at the Deseret Gym with a band and a banner reading "American Fork-S- tate Champions", They had the great center, Kent Durrant, who had broken all sort of scoring re-cord in hi division and the state. He was unstoppable under the basket. Coach Anderson, Sandberg, Jeffrie and company from Grants-vil- e took the situation in hand and deflated American Fork' balloon, to the delight of everyone. They repeated in 1947, In making the following elec-tion, I make no claim at being an expert and some will disagree with me. Fine player must be and you must remember that in the early days, players were allowed to play three and four years in high chool, but this is the way I saw them i My favorite player was "Tuffy" Stillman. He was a player without a fault. Coolheaded, fast, flawless in hi pasting, deadeye shot and peerless playmaker and leader. He was picked on the All State team twice. In hi day, he did all the foul hooting and had an .800 average. Hi mate on the forward line would be Steve Vlaaic. Steve was one of the most graceful players I have ever seen, and a deadly shot at the hoop. On the guard line, Adolph Chiara, who lead in scoring in 1924, quite a feat in those days, when guards were not noted for their scoring ability. He was fast and a great defensive man a well. His teammate was Alvin Hall, the left handed marvel. For a big man with those beer keg legs of his, he was amazingly fast and had a great eye for the basket. He made All State twice, once a a forward and once a a guard. To fill the center spot, I must come closer to the present time and I select Jack Mannion. He had the height and could move very fast for a big man. He et all sort of scoring records. All of these men made All State one or more times. (Continued next week) Mr. Creedon n?m.ent. u.ntil 1948. How they used to pack them in, with the seats right on the boundary lines and the three balconie packed tight with fan. I remember watch-ing one game from the top balcony with only one backet in view and about two-thir- d of the floor vis-ible. I don't believe any town large or small supported their team like Bingham did. They would buy out the entire section in the north-we- st end of the gym, year after year and they made themselves heard. The area around the Hotel Utah and Deseret Gym would be packed with fans and what a tape record-ing would have revealed if one wa available in that bygone day. The team usually stayed at the Wilson Hotel and ate their meals in the cafe adjoining. The owner of these establishments must have been either a rabid basketball fan or one endowed with great patience and understanding, to put up with all the shenanigan, the team and aup-port- er subjected him to. Some of the fan would take the week off and stay at one of the hotel near the gym. To sit through 26 games, a tome of them did, showed what real fan will do for hi favorite sport. It wa alway reunion day at the tourney. You would see old friends that you did not see since the last tourney and the good fellowship that prevailed made those yearly meeting worth-while and memorable. For many year the High School Basketball Tournament wa in the guiding hand of President James Moss and Secretary C, Oren Wil-son. These two fine men loved the game and they gave stability and dignity to the annual meet. I re-member one day when Jimmy Mots' dignity wa somewhat ruffled when a fan dropped an Eskimo Pie On his bald head, from one of the up-per balconies. Last week I mentioned how Minersville and Hinckley surprised everyone and thia remind, me of two teams whote. ego wat deflated at the tournament. In 1925, Bing-ham breezed through their pre-season and league game without a defeat and were heavy favorite to take firt honor. The fan were making tentative plan to charter a special car to Chicago, for at that time the winner of the tournament wat tent to Chicago to compete in tome tort of a national high tchool meet. Larget badge with "Bingham Fight" on them were worn by everyone. We had the leading scor-er in the division, if not the date in "Poota" Alia and a super team to assist him. Parowan was not im-pressed by all this and proceeded to defeat us the first night. You could hardly wade through those BHS JUNIOR PROM TO BE HELD TONITE AT UOFU UNION The University of Utah Union Building in Salt Lake City will be setting thi evening (Friday), for Bingham High' big dance of the year, the Junior Prom, being stag-ed by the Junior CIbh. 1 heme of thia year' affair it "A'Mour De Parie".
