CORAL GABLES SCORE CARD

Picking All-Stars Is Easy; You Too Can Do It By DON CUDDY The Hurricanes made their local fans forget a lot of the break things that have happened during the season by their great play Saturday night. It seemed that, with nothing to lose, they were out to make Harry Gilmer look like any other football player—and they did a pretty fair job of it. Discount the sayings that the Crimson Tide wasn't really trying; a Birmingham editor who has watched 'Bama in all its games, said in the press box that only Tulane, who tripped them 21-20, made the Tide look worse. But I hope you haven't completely forgotten what happened in the nine other games because that'll make my selection of an all-opponent team more reasonable. These are the boys who were most damaging to the Hurricanes this year: Ends: Dan Brown, Villanova, and John North of Vanderbilt. Brown was a defensive demon and North was superior to any others seen. Tackles: Charley Compton, Alabama, and Carl Butkus, George Washington. The Demon Deacon was a humdinger and couldn't be fooled with. Butkus held the George Washington team together on one of Miami's rare good nights. He got moved back, but was never completely taken out of a play. Center: This is where I pull a quickie. Split nomination goes to a pair of [TEXT LOST] backs who were the most effective line backers this year: Al Doherty of Villanova, and Dave Bloxum of Texas Christian. Vaughn Mancha of Alabama is a great offensive center, but there wasn't a pivot man in the business who could match the above-mentioned pair for deadly tackling on any side of the line of scrimmage or in the secondary. Guards: Another tribute to the magnificent left side of the 'Bama line, Captain John Wozniak, and Charlie Fields of Florida edges running-mate Fletcher Groves. More Backs Than You Could Shake a Stick At There were more good backs on the Orange Bowl turf this year than you could shake a stick at; unfortunately most of them were tailbacks, so for quarterback let's have either Dean Davidson, Vanderbilt, or Monk Mosley (Gilmer's understudy), both of whom were rip-snorters. Lindy Berry, T. C. U. (who incidentally was a one-man team against Southern Methodist in that 19-19 thriller Saturday), rates above all others at left half despite fine runners like Cincinnati's Roger Stephens and still being awful weary of following Bobby Berry of Vanderbilt as he raced about as he pleased. At right half, Bishop Strickland of South Carolina wins hands down, and we wind up ye special with Ralph Pasquariello of Villanova as the most eligible fullback. Nope, no Gilmer. He showed some greatness, but not as much as the other ball carriers.

Riddlers Make It Stick Tonight

Tonight Leo Boles' Riddle cagers will attempt to make their high-scoring basketball power stick in a game with Miami Naval Air Station at the Miami Edison High school gymnasium. Last week they did themselves proud, wracking up an even 100 points in their debut against Edison Junior College of Fort Myers. Boles Boosts Scoring Power "This much I know," Leo said after the impressive curtain-raiser, "there's no team that can keep my boys from scoring. Our zone defense system needs a little more work and probably other teams can make plenty of points through our inexperience, but even if we lose to Stetson (which is the power-squad on the schedule), we'll give them a very close game."

Corsairs Take Over Second Place In Loop

St. Theresa's football Musketeer football team was bumped out of any claim to the runner-up slot in the South Florida Catholic league by a classy St. Mary's Corsair squad that traveled by ground and air to wrap up the honor themselves, 37-13 at Moore Park Sunday afternoon. The Corsairs jumped to an early lead on a 75-yard march after the kick-off, climaxing by end Stan Levitz making the final four on a daring end around play. St. Theresa was knocking on the door just nine plays from scrimmage later on a 56-yard push, but where thwarted inches from pay dirt and could not break the ice until the third period. St. Mary sewed the game up in the second period on TD thrusts by Frank Sutter and Paul Cyr. The first came on an interception assist by Levitz. Sutter went 22 yards for the tally, and three plays later another interception set up Cyr's plunge from three yards out. Lou Benavides had went over for another six pointer before a Tom FitzGibbon to Gene Doll pass clicked for 23 yards to the 45 and Doll raced all the way for the initial scoring effort. But St. Mary held their lead with a 13-yard completion in the final period. The Musketeers steamrollered 60 yards to a final score in the closing minutes as quarterback Herndon, moved to the back-field, going the final two yards. St. Mary's 37th to Billy Roberts for the bonus. It was the second conference loss for the Musketeers in half a dozen starts, the only other loop defeat coming at the hands of all-conquering Gesu. In non-league games, the Gables school lost to South Broward and own a victory over LaBelle. STARTING LINEUPS St. Mary's Pos. St. Theresa Croteau | le | Herndon Levitz | lt | C.

Men's Tourney Has Four Semi-Finalists

Semi-final match play in the Country Club of Coral Gables Men's Golf Tournament this week will match Dave Wheeler and Lyle Roberts and Bill Gorman and A. C. Randolf, Jr., on the Granada course. Wheeler went 2-up over Dr. Leo Vollmer and Roberts tripped Walter Shiner, 3-2, in upper bracket matches. Gorman and Randolph registered lower bracket triumphs over Gordon Taylor (2-up) and John Erb (4-3) to move another notch toward the championship. The losers will join Bob Searle and Frank Howard in the championship flight consolation play. Searle and Howard came through with duplicate 2-up wins over Dick Wallace and Frank Spencer respectively Sunday.

Riviera Attracts 150 Club Derby Headlines

Cool weather over the weekend did not noticeably effect the regular turnout on the Riviera Country Club fairways Sunday, Leonard Ott, club pro, announced this morning. Tabulations showed that 150 members toured the course although no special events, tournaments, or other special attractions other than the year-in-and-out sad play were on the docket. The attendance was considered good for any Sunday, Ott said. But although the past weekend (Please turn to Page Seven)

Weather Helps, Holds Biltmore Readiness Date

Heavy rains the latter part of last week have been both a blessing and a handicap to the preparation of the Biltmore Golf Course for play, and acting pro manager Wilbur "Umps" Clark estimated this morning that the opening day of play will fall between the 10th and the 15th of this month—one week later than was hoped for when the layout was acquired from the Veterans Administration. The rains came as a boon to the newly-planted rye grass, Clark said, because it thrives on cool, damp weather—which is exactly what developed, as if ordered, to bring the greens along. But where the futurity stock jumped, according to Umps, the immediate stock of leveling and trimming the fairways was slowed up considerably, necessitating the revised estimate of opening day.

Peebles Lays 42 Dates At Coliseum

A 42-date sports schedule for the Coral Gables Coliseum was announced this morning by Maj. W. H. Peebles, lessor of the Douglas Road sports arena. Included in the report was a summary of expenses for reconverting the Coliseum from its design as an aviation school, which purpose it has served for the past six years. More Seats to Be Added There will be 6,500 seats available for the opening attraction tomorrow night, a wrestling exhibition between Ed "Strangler" Lewis, ex-heavyweight champion, and Primo Carnera, former heavyweight boxing champion. By extending bleachers five more tiers and adding other temporary seats, Peebles estimated that the seating capacity will be increased to 7,500 this year with many other possible seating arrangements expected to up the capacity as the demand increases. In reconverting the arena, $25,000 has been spent on seats, electrical equipment, a boxing ring, scoreboards and a 54x90-foot basketball court. Outstanding attractions on the Coliseum program to date is the George Tyson Ice Vogues show booked from Jan. 26 to Feb. 2. Amateur, intercollegiate and pro boxing and University of Miami basketball make up the bulk of the attractions. Pro Boxing Still Tentative Professional boxing dates are still tentative, Peebles made clear, as is the basketball tournament slated for the first week in March. If the University does not succeed in landing the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association tournament here, then the state regional high school tournament will be held. Dec. 2, wrestling (Carnera vs. Lewis); Dec. 9-11, South Florida AAU boxing tournament; Dec. 12-13, basketball, U-M vs. Tampa; Dec. 16, professional boxing (tentative); Dec. 19-20, basketball, U-M vs. Florida; Dec. 26, basketball, U-M vs. Pittsburgh; Dec. 30, intercollegiate boxing, U-M vs. Syracuse (Orange Bowl Festival); Jan. 2, basketball, U-M vs. Pennsylvania; Jan. 6, boxing (tentative); Jan. 9, basketball; Jan. 13, boxing (tentative); Jan. 18—Feb. 2, Ice Vogues; Feb. 6, intercollegiate boxing, U-M vs. Virginia; Feb. 9-12, Gold Gloves Tournament; Feb. 13 intercollegiate boxing, U-M vs. Minnesota; Feb. 17, boxing (tentative); Feb. 20, intercollegiate boxing, U-M vs. Wisconsin; Feb. 27-28, basketball, U-M vs. Southern; March 2-4, NCAA basketball tournament.

RAIN, COLD WEATHER BLAMED Slight Biscayne Attendance, Mutuels Drop Contradicts 'Slump' Predictions

SPORTS PARADE By Oscar Fraley UP Sports Writer NEW YORK, Dec. 1. (UP)—Them as has, gits—and so it remained today in football. The guys who have been grabbing the headlines all season stayed right on the job Saturday despite a slim schedule. So it probably is gilding the lily to tell you that the standouts were such accepted stars as Mississippi's Charley Conerly and Barney Poole; SMU's Doak Walker; North Carolina's Charley (Choo Choo) Justice, and Army's Ripper Rowan. Conerly and Poole, dripping with All-American honors, came up with new national records as Ole Miss won the Southeastern Conference title downing Mississippi State, 33-14. Chuckin' Charley set up one touchdown, passed for two and scored another, which is more or less routine. But his 13 completions in 18 attempts boosted his record completions to 133 for the season. Poole, who caught the all-star habit at Army, mitted four of those heaves to make his total receptions 52 for the year and break by two the mark created in 1941 by Harry Stanton of Arizona. Walker remained a Texas gubernatorial threat as SMU was tied, 19-19, by red-hot TCU. He went 62 and three yards for touchdowns, kicked a point and brought back a kickoff 56 yards to set up the tying touchdown in the last 45 seconds. Justice steamed to a pair of touchdowns as North Carolina, a frustrated bowl shopper, walloped (Please turn to Page Seven) Several nights of heavy rain and cool weather were blamed for a slight drop in attendance and mutuel wagering which contradicted predictions that South Florida tracks would suffer a heavy slump in both departments, this season. Biscayne Kennel Club, which opened the racing season three weeks ago and is being watched closely as an indication of the play that other tracks may expect, reported only about a two percent drop in attendance with a current average of 7,288, while in the mutuels, with a nightly average of approximately $183,000, the drop from a year ago is only about five percent. As far as the racing itself, there is keen competition in each division with the nation's top racers sharing honors in the major races. In the first division, the competition is being featured by the efforts of Dry Lake, Beachcomber, Sooner Select, Gloria Ann, Flamingo and He Hath. In the younger dog division, Saddle, Dim Record, Cherry Creek and many others are steadily advancing as they are prepped towards the coming annual Biscayne Juvenile Championships on Dec. 13 and Dec. 27. Nicolette Heads 'Hot Box' Eight topflight routers headed by the youngster, Nicolette, and the recent Futurity track record racer, No Refund, have been matched for tonight's featured ninth race at the Biscayne Kennel club. Nicolette won her last at the same distance in 32 1-5 seconds and was going away at the end. No Refund recently set the new Futurity track mark of 28 2.5 seconds and is rated one of the more promising stars of the meeting. Against them will be Walnut Street, impressive winner in his last; and the popular racers of the last two years, Lucky Doreen, Herb Hill, First Edition, My Jill and Adora. All of these have been prominent winners and money finishers in the last two weeks. Another pack of first division racers have been matched in the eighth, also at 5-16 mile, with Revere Rube, Much Liked and Hot Cargo figuring to share favoritism. Again the fifth and tenth races will be over the marathon Biscayne Course, while in the second race will be None Better and Yard Bird as seasonal first-starters and in the fifth, Silk Hands and Risky Ron making their first start of the meeting.
