F SPRING SPORTS Spring sports had no priority rating so they were almost dropped in the interest of national defense. No baseball, track, or golf intercollegiate competition saw the Hilltop upperclassmen in action. The freshmen however organized to take part in the telegraphic track meet in competi- tion with the records hung up by fresh- men in all the conference schools. Spring football played a major role with forty-eight men moving outside as soon as the weather permitted. Fifteen lettermen back is normally the same as saying a good season next year, but Uncle Sam may change some of the prospects into soldiers. Fred Polino, all-conference center, may be in the Navy Air Corps next fall, While Al Mazzaferro is finishing this school year on a draft deferment. If the armed services do not claim too many of the upcoming freshmen footballers, prospects should continue to rise. The four hours of gym required produced some boxers and wrestlers, so the newly revived association put on a slam- boree for the townfolks that really brought down the house. Fent Wolfe scored the only knockout when Guy Mazzocca for- got to cover up his chin and a fast right caused an enforced black-out midway in the second round. Iohn Spezzaferro, stu- dent boxing instructor and finalist in the light-heavy division of the Cleveland Golden Gloves tournament, out-decisioned Iohn Henninger, Lorain champ, in the fea- ture bout of the evening. lim Heppert got the judges' nod in the main wrestling match on the card over Alex Nagy. The ten bout card furnished so much speed and action that Coach Turney made im- mediate plans for more slamborees in the future. More space should certainly be given to the frosh who did at least get into inter- collegiate competition. Nester, hurdler on the Philadelphia Overbrook High team that won the indoor track crown in 1939, organized the frosh. Nearly twenty candi- dates were turned up, including George McCrea, member of thelsame champion team, lohn Alden who runs the mile in two minutes flat, and Linwood Orange who was on the Maryland state high school championship relay team. From this group may spring a varsity track team next year. The faculty volleyball team minus its star Kolehmainen failed to show up to advantage when it met the student all- stars. ln the past the profs have generally at least held their own, but this year they fell.
