THE SPORTS CAST C continued J didn't count . . . Walt the Waster forgot to touch third base . . . Watching Gil Blackman win a countless number of races for the Eastside track team and finally having the pleasure of knowing that here was a boy who had every- thing Qeven a set of loaded dicej . . . I never failed to thrill to the determined play of Dolph Badagliacca, who fought just as hard on the basketball floor as he did on the baseball diamond . . . The night at the Paterson Armory when joe Cingale knocked out Bernie Taylor in a fight sponsored by the Paterson Evening News-P. B. A. Associ- ation . . . Cingale, after staggering around the ring like a drunk on Times Square, suddenly nailed Taylor with a vicious sock on the point of the chin and Taylor collapsed to the canvas, his chips being checked in for the night, One of the funniest incidents I ever witnessed was one in which Ken Malone was chief character . . . It seemed that Eastside and another institution were vying for prestige on the gridiron when Malone and his adversary began heaving insults at one another . . . When the opposing center took a violent dislike to Malone's caroling of the Dipsy Doodle , Kenneth promptly bowled the fellow into a neighboring county . . . When the victim awoke, he mum- bled, Dial off that stationlh . . . And then there's Walt Porter, the baseball player . . . He was the only player to cash in on his social security during his tenure of office as right fielder on the squad known as Nine Old Men and Coach Al Livingstone, otherwise, casually identified as the Eastside baseball team . . . Now don't get me wrong . . . I pray of you, please don't get me wrong . . . But it was a real pleasure watching Porter strike out . . . Why the breeze was so terrific that Coach Livingstone came mighty near being blown off his beach chair into distant left field where joe Passero was playing she loves me, she loves me not with a solitary daisy . . . During my years as scholastic scrivener, Eastside did turn out some re- markable teams and a good many of my brother graduates played vital roles with those winning clubs . . . Cookie Fisherman, when the wasn't smiling to the fair lassies who surrounded him like he was the Alamo, played basketball for three years and played on the '37 club which ripped off a chunk of Passaic County title . . . Then Walt Porter won the county title for Central when he starred against Eastside a year or so back . . . Vince Fiascanaro, the smoothie from Twelfth Avenue, established local basketball history by winning two games against Central's five . . . two overtime baskets twice told the tale in a shell . . . In closing this epic of evolution, it is only fair that we give credit where credit is due and mention something of Graham Ginsburgls athletic prowess in scholastic endeavor . . . That able colleague of mine and generally my right hand fpalms upj, was the only student in school to earn his E playing for the Hop Scotch team, Badminton team, and Water Polo array . . .
