Heafh's Ice Cream Overtakes
West Side Tavern to Gam
Last-Minute Hoop Victory
By Dick Daoust
Heath's Ice Cream came from behind in overtaking the
West Side tavern basketball team in the final minutes of play
to score a 23-20 win in the finale of last night's Independent
hoop action played on the high school floor. Earlier in the
evening, the Community College had no trouble in setting the
Jaycees down, by a 80-10 count, while the Junior Varsity
handed the Evans' Fly squad a 39-32 defeat after being
pressed all the way by the
winless wonders.
In the opener, the college
boys held the Juniqr Chamber
men scoreless in the first per
iod, and held a 12-3 halftime
lead. Play was resumed and
the collegians opened up, scoring
11 points to the Jaycees' one point
for the third period total of 23-4.
Play was almost even in the last
stanza, making the final score,
3010.
Plath Buys "Shakes"
Big college center, Bill Plath,
paced the college five with an 11
point total.
The Junior Varsity-Evans' Fly
tussle was action-packed all the
way, with neither team leading by
a large margin. First- quarter
score read 7-5, while the halftime
count stood at 20-17, again in fa
vor ot the Jayvees. With four
minutes remaining in the third
frame, Evans' knotted the score
at 24-all, but from there hence,
it was the Jayvees' set plays that
gav them the final nod, 39-32.
High point man for the contest
was Evans' John Odom who hit
the hemp for a total of 14 points.
Scoring among the Jayvees was
fairiy well distributed.
Heath's Start Slow
Heath's Ice Cream didn't enter
the scoring column until the sec
ond period in the tangle with
West Side, and found themselves
on the bottom of a 13-6 first half
score. In the final frame, how
ever, Coach Carroll got his team
rolling, and at the official's 3
minute time-out, the ice cream
five had pulled Into an 18-18 tie
with the tavernmen. A free throw
by Holliday, and field goals by
Abbott and Niebergall gave the
Heath's cagers their third win
against an equal number of
losses.
Tom Niebergall led scoring
with 8 total points, followed by
Westslder, Ted Hinshaw, who
garnered 7 counters. -.

Sporf Parade
By Oscar Fralev
(United Press Snort. Writer)
New York, Feb. 16 tw The
Irish are fighters and dreamers.
so little Jimmy Rooney was an
gling today for a title go with
featherweight champion Willie
Pep a bout his mind told him
he couldn't win but his fighting
Irish heart told him he might.
Little Jrnmy goes against
George La Falgio at Madison
Square Garden on tomorrow
night and if he wins the hustling
Hibernian is expected to get a
shot at Pep. That's moving fast
for a young fellow with only 38
fights under his belt, but Rooney,
his round, baby face serious ex
plained: "Okay, mavbe I'm not ready
for the likes of Pep. But I'll fight
anybody and if I can hit him,
I can win it."
Has Good Record
That's enough for the fighting
orphan from Bridgeport, Conn.
And his record of 21 knockouts in
those 38 fights indicate that this
125-pound 21-yeao-old just might
lay a clincher on the elusive Pep
button.
Jimmy, despite his compara
tively few bouts, is no novice. He
has been fighting ever since he
can remember and those in which
he engaged "for the fun of it"
and ruined his dreams of becom
ing a jockey don't show on the
record. Not Ihe boxing record,
anyhow.
Orphaned as a baby, Jimmy
spent his youth in the Norwalk,
Conn., county home. As a young
ster he was sent to various farms
to work and six farmers in a row
fired him swiftly.
"Too many fights," Rooney
laughs.
Rooney's swift rise in the
featherweight ranks points up
the comeback of the clouting
celts and brings back memories
of the old days when the Irish
ruled the ring. Not all of the
present crop possess the punching
prowess of the five-foot, six-jnch
Jimmy but for the first time in
years the Irish are making a re
spectable overall showing.
Among the featherweights, in
addition to Rooney, you have
such sons of the old sod as Glen
Flanagan and Tommy Collins.
Rinty Monaghan of Ireland is the
flyweight king and the chief chal
lenger for bantamweight honors
is Danny O'Sullivan.
Moving up in the heavier divi
sions, lightweight standouts in
clude Dennis Pat Brady, Jimmy
Warren and Del Flanagan.
Among the leading welters are
Billy Graham, Jackie Keough and
Paddy Young, and the middle-
weights have such sharpshooters
as Jimmy Flood, Jimmy Herring
and Roger Donaghue. Even the
heavyweight division is bringing
forward wearers of the green in
Bob Murphy of San Diego; Rex
Layne, out of Utah, and Curt Ken
nedy of Wichita, Kans.
GOLF TOURNEY STARTS
Harlingen, Tex., Feb. 16 i"
Play began today in the $10,000
Lower Rio Grande valley open
gold tournament with Jimmy De
maret and Cary Middlecoff co
favorites. The spotlight was turned on
Demaret and Middlecoff by the
absence of Sam Snead, the winter
tour's leading money winner who
passed up the event for a rest.

Joe Gordon Signs
1950 Contract
With Cleveland
Bv Milton Klchman
(United i'rwa StorU Writer)
New York, Feb. 16 tll-i Joe
Gordon of Cleveland beamed over
his 1950 contract today, while
Carl Fuiillo steamed over his.
Gordon, at his Eugene, Ore.,
home, revealed he had signed his
contract and was "very satisfied
with the terms." Previously, the
veteran 35-year-old second base
man announced he might play in
the Pacific Coast league if the
Indians did not meet his demand.
The document, which did not
include a bonus clause, was be
lieved to call for $35,000, the same
amount the semi-bald slugger re
ceived last season.
Gordon suffered from ' a pro
tracted batting slump In 1949 and
finished with a lukewarm .251
percentage.
Wants More Money
Furillo, on the other hand,
looked at his $15,000 offer at his
Stony Creek Mills, Pa., home to
day and said he will keep on look
ing until the Dodgers come across
with "about $25,000."
Furillo's .324 batting mark last
season was bettered only by team
mate Jackie Robinson and Stan
Musial and Enos Slaughter of
the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Dodgers couldn't do busi
ness with Furillo but they could
with youngsters George Shuba,
Dee Fondy and Clarence (Buddy)
Hicks, all of whom inked pacts
for 1950.
Shuba, an outfielder,' batted .328
for Mobile of the Southern as
sociation last year, while first
baseman Fondy hit .294 for the
same club. Both are -25 years old
The 23-year-old Hicks, a short
stop, posted a .268 average with
St. Paul of the American associa
tion. '
Hank Bauer, who batted .272 in
103 games for the champion Yan
kees last year, became the 26th
member of the club to agree to
terms.
The St. Louis Browns, signing
their players slower than any
other big league club, announced
that outfielders Ray Coleman
and Rocco Ippolito had accepted
terms.
Tlv worn tVin ninth nn,l 1flth
players to sign with the club for

the coming campaign.

No Peanuts?
Wotta Ballgame
San Francisco. Feb. 16 ll
"Buy me some peanuts and crack
erjack ..."
Not any more, pal. At least,
not any more in San rrancsico.
The Pacific Coast league Seals
today barred the sale of peanuts
in (heir baseball park.
Too expensive, club president
Paul Fagan said. It costs $20,0X0
worth of janitors a year to clean
up the mess.
Fagan admitted that he doesn't
mind ripping into a goober or two
himself at the ball park, but said
he figured it out the other day-
it costs us four and one-quar
ter cents for giving every man,
woman and child who buys a bag
tne privilege of throwing them
on our nice clean floors."
Fagan broke it down: The pea
nuts sell for 10 cents a bag but
tne &eals collect onlv two and
a half cents a bag. Janitors get
$1.35 an hour, or two and one-
quarter cents a minute. The jani
tors were clocked. 'It takes them
three minutes to sweep up the
shells from each sack at a cost
of six and three-quarter cents a
sack.
Beavers Defeat
Idaho, 60 to 46
Corvallis, Feb. 16 IP Oregon
State's Beavers strengthened their
position in the northern division
standings last night by defeating
the Idaho Vandals 60-46, to sweep
a two-game Pacific coast confer
ence basketball series.
Shooting accuracy told the storv
of the game as the Oregon Stat
ers made 23 out of 50 shots, while
the Vandals were hitting 17 bas
kets on 60 tries.
The Beavers dominated in all
phases of the game and were par
ticularly outstanding on floor
work. OSC held a 27-23 halftime
lead, but quickly widened the gap
after the intermission.
Individual scoring honors went
to OSC's Bob Payne with 17
points. Bob Pritchett topped the
Vandals with 14.
