SPORTS fcontinued from page forty-fourj sky ran away from his rivals in the 220. Sid Potish and Bill Kaiser finished third and fourth respectively in the hurdles. Sid Gorman placed third in the 440 and George Elkins managed a fourth in the dash. In Class D Paul Warwick took a close second in the 176 while Miles Anderberg and Bill Miller were 3 - 4 in the 220. The field events were not compiled. FRIDAY, MARCH 3 Dorchester IIOM, Trade 76M, Memorial 71, Commerce 27-Proving that its earlier victory over these three schools was no fluke, the rejuvenated Dorchester track squad blazed its way to a more decisive win in the season's finale. The big surprise of the day occured when Jimmy Larkin, a newcomer to the Dor- chester ranks, matched the Reggie record for the 176 by winning easily over Paul Warwick in the time of 21.4 seconds. Winners for Dor- chester in Class AB were Sheldon Nitenson and Sid Pike. The former won both the 50 yard dash and the broad jump and the latter, the 300. ln Class C, Pete Laudansky scored a double by winning the 220 and also the high jump. Sid Ciorman won the 440 and Sid Mandlebam, the shotput. Winners in Class D were, along with Larkin, Miles Anderberg who edged out Bill Miller to win the 220, Len Kramer who broke the tape in the 50 yard dash, and Eddie Davis who edged out Bill Swanson in the shotput with a toss of forty feet. Ed Potish took seconds on both the C '50 and the high jump. Paul Farrell and Tar- zan Flynn, away from the hockey wars, aided the squad with points in the shotput. THE REGIMENTALS The Reggies were held on Saturday, March II and as usual they were won by big and and powerful English High. Dorchester picked up 9 points to finish ninth in a field of fifteen. Pete Laudansky earned the lone Dorchester point in the field events when he propelled his body over the bar at 5 feet 4 inches to take fourth place in the high jump. Jimmy Larkin be- came the Hrst Dorchester Reggie champ in years when he romped in the 176. With a little competition he would have easily beaten the record. His time was 21.5 seconds. Laudansky closed fast to take a good third in the 220. The other point was earned by the Class C relay team. So we ring down the curtain on the most prosperous track season for Dorchester in more than a decade. Congratulations must not only be given to the boys on the squad, but also to Coach Pendergast who has been patiently work- ing and hoping year after year that Dorchester might reach its rightful spot in track circles. This 1944 team has started the ball rolling. Let's hope that in 1945 coach Pendergast will greet more than a hundred candidates. Then sit back and watch Dorchester's smoke. BASEBALL As we go to press the baseball season is just around the corner and the future really looks bright for the Red '25 Blackg that is if a few good pitchers can be found somewhere. Five members of last years first team are returning. The outfield of Flynn, Bertazzoni, and Peter- son is intact, while in the infield, shortstop Paul Farrell and second baseman Franny Martin are back again. Bob Dickey may replace Mell Rubin who has graduated, at first base, while third base is open to competition. Sid Mandle- baum, second string catcher of last year may handle that position this year. However, he'll have stiff competition from Jim Staples and Joe Barron. Among the pitching candidates are Don Shea, Mo Monohan, Bill Kaiser, and Whitey Lamb. Let's hope that they have a few hooks and curves to show Coach Pendergast. If they have, it may be clear sailing. -OW ft. I 1 lf- . page ninety-three
