BASKETBALL Faced with the toughest schedule in Yeshiva history, that in- cluded such teams as St. John ' s, Brooklyn, L. I. U., Pratt Institute, Cathedral College, and Queens, the Mighty Mites finished the season with a satisfactory record of nine wins in fifteen games. The acquisition of Mike Pincus as head mentor in place of Red Sarachek, who left for duty with the Red Cross, and the sound advice of Pee Wee Friedman helped greatly in molding the Quints into formidable squad. The great work of the Blue and White in the face of top-notch competition caused the New York Times to remark on its sports page, . . . . Ye:-hiva is a team which has made good considering the size of the school. The outstanding player and driving force on the squad was Stanley Doppelt with a season ' s total of 151 points. His play elicited the praise of both Joe Lapchik, coach of St. John ' s, and Nat Holman of City College. Al Steinberg, a newcomer to Yeshiva, displayed out- standing talent on the defense. The two freshmen, solid Bedo Schorfstein and lanky Marv Fredman added the needed height on the squad. Fredman is especially deserving of praise for his fight and scoring ability that netted him a cool 144 points for the season. The fast and tricky Red Kalb and the old standby Sammy Rosenbloom made themselves felt often when they were most needed. Fat Friedman with his unnerving set shot, and scrappy little Hy Pomerantz rounded out the squad. Here a few words must be said in praise of the great job that Athletic Manager Samuel Waldman has done this year. His untiring and unselfish efforts on behalf of the school have earned the plaudits of both the basketball squad and the student body. SEASON ' S RESULTS Yeshiva 82— J. T. S 20 Yeshiva 34— N. Y. U.
