Piloted by Len Gzebb and Bill Stefanik, the fast-moving squad, lacking ability around the hoop, chalked up victories in their first and last outings.

INTER-ROOM HOCKEY Although they weren’t exactly “pro” material, the rooms that competed in the inter-room puck classic provided many an exciting moment for the puck fans that turned out at the Exhibition rink. When the final whistle was blown, the upraised and waving sticks of the Room 5 sextet signified that they were the ’49 champs! In the sudden-death playoff game, the pucksters from Room 5 were able to dent the Room 20 twine on seven occasions, while Mr. Babb’s puckchasers were only capable of blinking the red light six times. The championship squad was com¬ prised of the following: Sawka, Chor- nous, Kalinowski, Stefanik, Borowski, Martin, Skurzanski, Mullan and Cielen. INTER-HIGH TEN PIN BOWLING The three teams that represented Newton in the Inter-High ten pin bowling meet staged at the Bowl-Arena didn’t quite consist of any Andy Vari- papas or Ned Days, but they enjoyed a very successful tournament with one aggregation able to win their shift. The winning quartet consisted of Ron White, Bob Daski, Reg Chopp and Don Kape- luch, the latter bowling an excellent three-game total of 515.

SENIOR BOYS’ BASKETBALL When the 1949 edition of George Gregory’s senior hoopsters began their cage wars, they were faced with the difficult task of bringing “home” the senior cage crown for the fourth con¬ secutive time. However, when their final contest was completed in early March, the “red and black” were able to finish no better than third in the five-team loop. Garnering no less than 10 points in nearly all his outings, diminutive Mitch Baryluk capably led the Gregory-men throughout the entire semester. Mike Skwark, Stan Kalinowski, Bill Stefanik and Albert Glovitsky were others that, more than once, made notable impres¬ sions on the score sheet. At the half-way mark of the eight- game schedule, the Baryluk-led New¬ tonians broke even with two wins and two losses. In their following three contests they dropped one and finished on the long end of the count in the other two. With a slight hope of re¬ maining in the running for the City championship, the Norsemen were handed a 47-34 drubbing at the hands of the powerful Tigers from St. John’s. Early in January, a smart, well-bal¬ anced crew of U.S. cagers from Warren, Minnesota, staged a thrilling exhibition tilt with the Newton aggregation, be¬ fore approximately 500 cheering fans. After a rather shaky start, the black- shirted Americans found the range in the spacious McGregor street armories, and led 15-13 at the half-time inter¬ mission. Fighting back gamely, the Newton five were unable to cope with the fine ball-handling ability of the visitors and at the end of the contest were clutching the short end of the 31-28 count. Several weeks later, the same Warren crew played host to our own band of cord shakers on two occa¬ sions. Minus three starry performers, the Newton quintet absorbed two de¬ cisive defeats. Despite their two humi¬ liating setbacks, our boys enjoyed a wonderful week-end in the U.S. town, due mainly to the friendly hospitality they received from the Americans. Newtonian 57
