Pelota Pushers Start Practice At Fronton

Pelota Pushers Start Practice At Fronton. Regular practice sessions will start this week-end for the 32 cesta-pelota stars of jai alai at the Biscayne fronton which opens its 100-night meeting on Dec. 15, it has been announced by Pedro Mir, player-manager. With the last of the players arriving here during the last several days and the renovation-improvements of the spacious fronton complete, these players who have been competing in recent months in Cuba, Mexico and South America, will be pointed towards the coming singles, doubles and triples. The registry includes many favorites of the last several years as well as many newcomers who have been starring in recent months on Latin-America courts. Among the newcomers will be Cermeno, Gaytan and Inclan of Mexico; Bari and Salsamendi of Spain, and Gayarre, a registered American. The former favorites comprise an extensive list including such stars of last year as Andrinua, Epifanio, Cecilio, Barruet, Adolfo, Astiga, Arrieta and others. Today will see Richard Brenson, fronton president and associates, be host to the visiting sports writers, baseball leaders and local press-radio for a special 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Spanish cocktail party at the fronton in salute to the visitors attending the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues' convention. The get-together will feature three special jai alai matches, two doubles and a singles.

Sports Parade

(Continued from Page Five) for the game with SMU on Jan. 1, 1925., Meanwhile, he picked up a little extra dough playing end for the Teapot's Canton eleven. From there it was on to Washington U. of St. Louis and back to State in 1928 as assistant coach. "I took over as head coach in 1930 and this is my first bowl team," Higgins said. "It's also my best team." Doesn't Talk Much Higgins doesn't talk much about his coaching ability. He seems very proud of the fact, however, that his sister is the famed birth control advocate, Margaret Sanger. Burly Bob has great admiration for Walker who he said "is a great back and just bounces right up no matter how hard he is hit." The Mustangs, according to Higgins, can do everything well. "But we've got some boys that may show them something, too," he chuckled. "Our Joe Colone is as good a kicker as there is in the country. Larry Joe is real fast, fast as any. And we have a sophomore named Bill Luther about whom you will hear plenty. "The line has made our ball club and our backfield men all are specialists. I think we'll give a good account of ourselves." On that line, Higgins singles out Steve Suhey, "who is as strong and as fast as any back we have," and tackle John Nolan, 225 pounds and "all right." Bob, you get the feeling, is playing down his club. It's the only undefeated and untied team in the east and one of the three such in the nation—along with Notre Dame and Michigan—and he doesn't expect it to be otherwise come sundown Jan. 1, 1948.

Sauer of Kansas Coach of Week

(Continued from Page Five) ends, Dave Schmidt, a two-time all Big Six choice, weighs only 155 pounds. "If they can block and tackle they can play on my team," Sauer explained. "Otherwise, they're better off in the rooting section." The big man from Nebraska—he was an all-American fullback there in 1933 — insists on two techniques. "Defense is natural," he holds. "Players have to learn to block. It is hard for most of them. But it pays off on good offensive football, and you can win many games with only a minimum of scoring." "And the procedure still will be the same for Georgia Tech and the Orange Bowl," he said.
