Forward Guards'
Kept Washington
In Division Race
' By Loyd Bulmar
Seattle, March 7 U. If you
try to pick one, or even two men
who kept the University of
Washington basketball team in
contention down to the final
week, it can't be done brother.
: But your search for the boys
Who pot the points pretty well
narrows down to a pair of "for
ward guards," Lou Soriano and
Frank Guisness.
; Louis Soriano, 20, 175, 5' 10"
junior from Bremerton.
I Frank Guisness, 19, 184, 6' 3",
a sophomore from Vancouver,
Wash.
' The boys could be compared
With a "brother" act. It almost
eemed, at times, they "got hot"
on alternate nights to give the
other a chance at the scoring
glory.
1 Soriano was hailed as one of
the most dangerous shots on the
Washington varsity before the
season opened. And during the
11 pre-season games. 10 of which
Washington won, he was Just
that.

New York, March 7 (U.R)An-
nouncement will be made today
of how the National Invitation
Basketball tournament will work
who will play whom, and
twice while Columbia was taken
to the cleaners once.
And coaches of both aggrega
tions were quick to praise the
percentage shooting of Mr. Soriano.
The boys who beat the pre
season drumsr lor Washington
labelled Guisness as a player po
tentially able to rank with such
cagers as Bill Morris, Jack
Nichols and Sammy White. And
with two more years to go, who
knows?
. Soriano emerged as third high

was hot on his heels In fourth
spot with 180 points. Soriano's
mark of 77 field goals topped
the northern circuit.

Genius Not Necessary
For Basketball Coach
By OSCAR FRALEY
(United Press Sports Writer)
New York, March 7 JB
Yon don't have to be m genius
to be a good basketball coach,
three famous pop-shot professors
declared today and, as a matter
of fact, sometimes It's a handi
cap. Take it from Moose Krause
of Notre Dame, Joe Lapchick of
the pro New York Knickerbock
ers and Howie Cann of N.Y.U.,
sometimes a coach, just can't
lose for winning. And they don't
hesitate to pan themselves in the
process.
"To show you what a great
coach I am," Krause explained,
"I'll tell you about my secret
weapon.
"It's John Foley, a senior
from Worcester, Mass., and
Johnny certainly made a gen
ius out of me," the Moose con
tinued. "Against Navy, we
were leading by three points
with a minute and a half to
go. Finally, I sent Foley Into
the game with this message
for the boys.
"Hang onto the ball. Make
Navy foul you to get it."
Don't shoot!"
"So what happened?" Kra
use whispered plaintively. "Fo
ley took three weird shots
and hit with all three. We
won the game going away.
"And afterwards, all the
alumni rushed up to congratu
late me on the strategic move
of putting Foley in the game
for that last minute and a half."
Lapchick, the lanky coach of
the Knicks who once starred for
the original Celtics, shook his
head sympathetically.
"I know just what you mean."
gaunt Joe took over. "I remem
ber the time when I was coach
ing St. John's against De Paul
in the final round of the 1944
national invitation tournament
at Madison Square Garden."

Lapchick had to gather him
self, like he did in the old days
when he was jumping center, be
fore he could continue.
"It was a whale of a tough
game," he finally continued.
"George Mikan was playing cen
ter for De Paul and I guess
everybody knows how good he
is. Well, with 10 minutes re
maining to play we were losing
by two points. I got so excited
I passed out cold on the bench.
"I was out about five min
utes before the team doctors
could revive me," Lapchick re
counted. "When I did come
to, there were five minutes
left but we had come from
behind and put the game on
Ice all while I was uncon
scious." The husky Cann shook with
laughter and then sobered.
"Reminds me of the time,"
Cann said, "when my team was
trailing in a real close game and
I knew there was only one of
my boys who could help me. I
looked down the bench and
couldn't find him. I sent a
manager scurrying into the lock
er room, but he wasn't to be
found.
"Know where he was?" Cann
asked lugubriously. "In the
game!"
The three coaches shook their
heads in unison.
"Yep," C.ann said, "I sure am
a genius."
And there was a ready "me,
too," from the two "geniuses"
alongside him.

Galloping Gelding Comes in
Winner to Save Highbrow Mag
Los Angeles, March 7 (U.I!) A galloping gelding named Jerry
M. today went down in history as the Seabiscuit of the literary
world.
With the savings of four eager young writers riding on his
nose, Jerry M. whipped across the Santa Anita finish line and
paid enough to put out the first
issue of a short story quarterly.
The four men started planning
the new, experimental magazine
eight months ago. By this week
they had raised only $500 from
other intellectuals and they
needed at least $500 more right
away to get the presses rolling.
We considered going t6 Las
Vegas," Harvey L. Edwards, 28,
one of the editors, said, "and we
considered going to the poker
parlors. Finally we decided to
shoot the works.
"We decided to bet every cent
we had on a horse. If we didn t
get the $1,000, we'd give up."
.None of the four editors naa
ever been to the races before.
Edwards said they stopped every
block on the way to Santa Anita
Thursday to buy tipsheets.
Editor Russ J. Burton, who
was raised on an Iowa farm, was
elected to pick the winning nag.
The first race went to the post.
Burton, the $500 burning in his
pocket, didn't like the look of
the horses.
He didn't like the horses in the
second race either, or the third.
fourth, fifth or sixth. One of the
mounts he passed up paid 16
to 1. .
When the horses paraded for
the seven-furlong seventh, Bur
tons eye fell on Jerry M., a
brown gelding trotting deter
minedly to the gate.
