Hurricanes Geared To Wallop Rollins Tonight

Foul Weather Postponement Of Riviera Club Class Tourney

Although the Riviera Country club has the only golf course in South Florida which has remained relatively high and dry throughout the recent floods, rainy weather has caused the overlap of many tournaments and special events listed at the Blue road layout. Leonard Ott, the club pro, has been forced to extend the qualifying round to this Sunday for the Club and Class championships play, and several special events listed on his solidly booked schedule have been washed out. With the Club and Class tournament already delayed five weeks by inclement weather, Ott still has hopes of making good on the slate which lists a seven-week Senior tournament and a wide variety of handicap, two-and foursome and mixed tournament play, originally planned to run through Saturday, Dec. 27. In addition to the special events, Wednesday afternoons have been reserved as "Ladies Day" for women members of the club. Early 'Season' Start Of chief interest is another Blind Bogey slated for Nov. 9, a two-ball-best-ball on the 15th and a Scotch Mixed Twosome the following day. A Blind Partner tournament (in which Ott will draw the partners out of a hat after all players have left the first tee), a low gross-low net sweepstakes, and a day of low net four-ball play. A Sunday Scotch foursome net score rounds out the month of November. The club's Derby Tournament of Roses, Fathers and Sons Day, a low net for nine pair four holes, mixed twosomes, Consolation and Get Acquainted tournaments carry the members up to the first of a new year.

Highlighting the entire season will be the bi-monthly amateur box g shows open to the public every other Tuesday evening at 7:30 p.m. The first ring show is tentatively listed for Oct. 21. Basketball May Edge Boxing The fight game may well prove second in Winter popularity, however, when a planned Municipal basketball league opens its schedule after the first of the year. Ten- personnel is expected to be drawn from the same sources which sponsored the ten-team softball league this summer. Leading off the competitive sports program will be Saturday Junior League games, divided into junior and senior loops. Entries for both leagues are now being called for by Beckman. The junior league will be for players up to [?]e seventh grade, and the senior circuit eighth graders on. Games will be confined to successive Saturdays during the month of November.

Inglehart, Phipps Line Up U-M Polo Squad

Two outstanding sportsmen will be added to the University of Miami's coaching staff and the Hurricanes will enter their ninth varsity team in intercollegiate competition this year when polo is introduced to the University sports roster. Stewart Inglehart and Mike Phipps, recognized as a pair of the finest players this country has ever produced, have volunteered to equip and coach a Hurricane team in order to promote collegiate interest in the sport. Present plans indicate that open try-outs will be conducted for all undergraduates interested in about a month. The sportsmen have agreed to furnish the horses, stables and other required equipment to the University free. Outstanding Trio in School Outstanding prospective prospects already registered at the school and will be eligible for such competition, as soon as scheduled. They are: Dick Evans, Jack Knight and John Mather, all formerly of the New Mexico Military academy team which lost only one match out of 52 engagements last year. Although it was first announced that the sport would be on an intramural basis this year with games played as preliminaries to the regular polo shows by the Miami Adventurers at the Orange Bowl, an unofficial disclosure reveals that six intercollegiate games have already been scheduled. Most logical opposition for the Hurricanes from would come from the Ivy League schools, Harvard, Princeton and Yale, and from West Point, which also boasts a fine team.

—Photo by Fleming "DON'T LET IT GET YOU DOWN," Howard "Cub" Buck, the University of Miami's first football coach, tells present Hurricane mentor Jack Harding. The pair of pigskin strategists chat over grid days past and present before a luncheon honoring Buck at the North campus cafeteria annex Tuesday.

'Cub' Buck Returns Football Still Demands Pep Says First U-M Coach

"Football isn't much different now that it was in the old days — it is still essentially a contact sport and you need boys who will block and tackle and run hard regardless of what system you use." That was the message of Howard "Cub" Buck, speaking before nearly 100 guests gathered to honor his return to Coral Gables with a luncheon at the University North campus cafeteria annex Tuesday. The old days, recalled by the portly Buck, were when he was coach of the University of Miami's first football team. He held the post from 1926 through 1928. Prior to that he was the University of Wisconsin's first all-American tackle and played professional football with the great Jim Thorpe and other stars of the rugged twenties. First Squad 'Never Behind' It was the memories of the University's "old hands" (that monopolized the talk as Buck, President Bowman F. Ashe, Dean of Admissions Harry Provin, and the three former Hurricane captains who played under Cub recalled that he coached "a team that was never behind in any of its games the first year." Present at the luncheon was Bill Kimbrough, center and captain of the first Hurricane team that won all of its games, Evan Lindstrom, guard and captain in 1927, and Ted Bleff, who led the team from the fullback slot the following year. Praises Administration Buck, now owner of a Buick agency in Rock Island, Ill., spoke warmly of his stay at the University and expressed his acclaim at its tremendous growth over the years. "You know," he told Coach Jack Harding before turning the floor over to the present Director of Athletics, "this school never was a small-time proposition. Back when we first started the enrollment and everything else seemed a little small, but the — — behind the school — the same men that are guiding it through its expansion today — always saw this school and the football team that represented it as strictly first class." Harding, while presenting Buck with a banner traditionally awarded to the captain of each football opponent, made few apologies for his squad and referred briefly to the charges made against the Hurricanes by newspaper and other critics. "Welcome Constructive Criticism "Some of the things that have been said in the papers and around town about our team this year I do not agree with. We haven't looked good, but the picture isn't as dark as some would have you believe. However, if what has been said by persons in connection with the squad helps us play a better game I welcome such constructive criticism." Harding's short talk was followed by an introduction of several former football personalities at the school by Harry Provin, Dean of Admissions and first director of athletics. He preceded each introduction with anecdotes about Dr. A. H. Weiland, first team physician, A. M. "Red" Franklin and John C. McGuire, halfbacks on the teams of the late twenties, John Tom Holdsworth, the University's first dean of the business school, and the U-M's "All - American cheerleader, Dutch Kirkland."

Musketeers Play Tonite At So. Broward

The second Gables high school team in as many weeks invades South Broward tonight to break up the winning ways of the -Dania team when Coach John Homko's St. Theresa Musketeers makes its second start of the season. Leading the parochial schools attack after its second victory will be quarterback Bill Frazel, who scored the Musketeer's game-winning touchdown against St. Patricks on Oct. 3 on St. Theresa's new field. Frazel will be aided in the backfield by fullback Tom Fitzgibbons, but the weight of the forward wall will be greatly reduced by the absence of 230-pound tackle Leo Joffree, out with a knee injury, Homko said. Although Coach Tom "Phoney" Smith's hard-hitting squad is not noted for its passing particularly they did beat the Cavaliers with one of the three desperation aerials attempted, and Homko will have his Musketeers guarding against a repeat performance.

Miami-Gator 'B' Squads Meet At Orlando

The University freshman football team opens its four-game 1947 schedule against the Florida Frosh at Orlando tomorrow. Coached by Harvie "Geechie" James and Dave Eldredge, both outstanding Hurricane performers last season, the squad totals 31 men who will be the backbone of the varsity with some season under their belts. Leading the list of ball carriers who are soon expected to be ready for varsity play are Frank Smith, and Al Carapella, fullback, former high school teammates at Tuckahoe, N.Y. In addition to this fast-stepping pair, James expects to start Bob Williams, of Honeapath, S.C., at blocking back and track star Bob Yoxall of Merrick, N.Y., at wingback. McCourt Named Captain Ed McCourt, a converted center, will captain the yearlings in their first test from right guard. The heavily rigged forward wall, which has held its own very well in scrimmage against the varsity, will have August DiPiano and Ken Frantz at ends; Art Russo and Bob Carrol at tackles; Buzz Morarity holding down left guard; and Doc Winters at center. In addition to the Florida game a pair of games with Auburn are listed on the schedule as well as a meeting with the Georgia Frosh at the Orange Bowl on Nov. 8 while the varsity are playing at Cincinnati. Auburn will oppose the Miami yearlings at Valdosta, Ga., next Saturday and a second tentative game with the Plainsman Jayvees is listed for Fort Lauderdale with no date set.

Hal Johnson Captains Team Seeking To Break Jinx MAZEJKA, DOYLE, SAEY TAKE STARTING ROLES

Hal Johnson, the Los Angles, Calif., tailback who has been the back-bone of the University of Miami Hurricane's grid offensive for two seasons, will captain his teammates as they seek to break their victory famine when they meet the scrappy Rollins college Tars in the Orange Bowl tonight. But unless the Hurricanes catch fire they are liable to be jooked for the third time this season by the Winter Park invaders, according to Walt Kichefski, of the U-M coaching staff. Overconfidence Fatal "Rollins certainly is not a team to take lightly," Kichefski said in support of Head Coach Jack Harding's attempt to whip his charges into better condition this week. "The Tars are well-rehearsed and laying for us and if they catch us just going through the motions of playing football they are capable of beating us." Kichefski has scouted the upstate rivals in their two games to date and has been impressed by their hustle even when they bowed to Erskine in the season opener three weeks ago. "Against Richmond they were a fine running team and showed that they could pass too," the end coach stated. "Mostly they run off a spinner series from a tight double wing formation, and the close reverse is a deadly weapon when you've got a team with speed." Most dangerous of the Rollins ball-carriers is a swift 155-pound left halfback from Jacksonville, Sam Hardman. He is pressed for his starting role by Neil Justice, 20-year old brother of the North Carolina "Choo Choo" that caused Miami so much grief when the Tar Heels played here last year. Although the Tars concede nothing to the heavier, more experienced Hurricanes tonight, the odds favored Miami to wear down the invaders and power-house to their first win of the season. Early this week Harding said they he planned to "stick to his guns" and develop the players he has until they are able to play the game they are capable of. Doyle, Mazejka Return Three changes have been made in the line-up which could not quite fight off the Texas Christian Horned Frogs here last week. Center Keith Doyle and blocking back Ernie Mazejka have recovered enough from injuries sustained in the Villanova game at Philadelphia to claim their starting assignments, and Art Saey, 210-pound intercollegiate heavyweight boxing champ moves into Leonard DeLonga's spot at right tackle. Big Tony Yovicsin and Ed Hauck will start on the flanks; Ernie Settembre will be in at the kick-off at left tackle; and Mario DeMarco and George Carrifeo, guards, add their poundage to the Hurricanes' forward wall. Mazejka, Johnson, Bob Bowman and Harry Ghaul will be in the backfield.

The Vitamin Kid

Leo Hauck, 195-pound fullback at the University of Miami, found a new use for vitamin pills during boxing season last year. Training down to 175 pounds in order to fight as a light-heavyweight, Leo was so hungry he had to subsist on the pills for three weeks during the season.

MUNICIPAL LEAGUE FOR CAGERS SET

Paul Kilcoyne, who managed the 10-team slate in the city's highly successful softball league this spring and summer is working with Ed Beckman, athletic director at the Youth Center, on a project that will promote a Municipal Basketball league this winter on a similar schedule and practically the same team sponsors. Tentative plans are to start the league rolling on the Youth Center co[?]rts after the first of the year. The softball league had ten sponsored teams and it is hoped that at least a half dozen court squads may be formed for the basketball league.

LOOKING AT SPORTS (Continued from Page Six)

signal caller—and maybe Harding will have one ready to go tonight. Several of the boys on the squad have told me that Carl Mosso, of whom great things were expected but not much seen thus far, is the ticket. Hurricane Boosters Several of the merchants and Betty Ruth ("Mrs. Geechie") James are collaborating in a fine gesture toward the varsity football squad. She, under the auspices of the University 'M-club,' has enlisted several sporting goods stores and lined up to award gifts to the outstanding lineman and back of each Hurricane home game. Ernie Settembre and Harry Ghaul rated the honors for the Baylor game from the Doc Moore, Corp, and the Toggery Shop here in the Gables. Taylor's Sports Shop and Marty Miles Jewelry handled the awards for last week's game, which saw George Carifeo and Hal Johnson selected. Miles will continue with the awards for the rest of the season, and there's a move afoot to present the game captain each week with a trophy also. Noppenberg Overboard On Niftees TONGUE IN CHEEK DEPT. Johnny Noppenberg's always-optimistic predictions for every Cavalier game are always something to wonder about—particularly as he lands on his feet most of the time. When asked about Ponee's game with Miami Beach earlier this week he was dead sartin' that his better team would win. That was highly commendable, of course, but we sucked in our breath when he expressed the hope that the Beach Typhoons would rack up a big score over Miami High Tuesday just so the Cavalier's sure thing tomorrow night would hurt that much more. (Incidentally, the Beach couldn't quite make the grade; they bowed to the Stingarees, 27-6.) Well, guys who want to win so much it sometimes seems ridiculous are the backbone of American sports. The fact that they sometimes fall flat on their faces is sooner forgotten than those coaches who are always crying when they're loaded for bear. Those who set an example of "give it all you've got even if you can only watch and wait" are what we need more of in this neck of the woods.
