sem is The banquet was under the sponsorship of the Mt. Carmel Ush- er club and the speaking portion of the program was carried on the air over station WJJW as a public service teature. The Wyandotte Chemicals orchestra, under the direction of Jack Downing, played appropriate music during the dinner hour, and the Wyandotte Chemicals Barber Shop Quartet, with Jack Shingleton leading, furnished close harmony in old tunes that the packed auditorium applauded vigorously. The versatile Shingleton, always ready to obilge, was prevailed upon to give his very dramatic reading of the time honored favorite Casey at the Bat and the crowd went wild in showing their appreciation. Howard Solo, chairman of the party turned the pro- gram aver to Co-Chairman Charles Watkowski, who in turn introduced the master of ceremonies for the eve- ning, Sam Madden, director of the athletics and phy- sical education for the Detroit Archdiocese. Madden took over at the point when the program was put on the air and continued at the helm until the conclusion of the speeches and presentation ot the Oak Pharmacy trophy. The Oak Pharmacy trophy for the most valu- able Mt. Carmel football player was awarded to Andy Podsiad, a standout performer at his end position on the Comet Squad, Father Krych, in his talk, had nothing but praise for the manner in which Mt. Carmel ath- letes have soared to the top in the few short years the school has competed in inter-school athletics. Michigan State's freshman football coach, Bob Flora, was the main speaker of the evening, ac- cording to the program, and made a hit with the crowd when he made his talk short and snappy. However, he further solidified his po- sition at the conclusion of the evening by show- ing moving pictures of the MSC-Washington State fcoball game.

Bouley, M. Zaichowski, The 1948 CYO grade school team is on the verge of repeating their performance of last season. This team Won six out of eight games. Their only losses coming from the hands of Lourdes and St. Pat's. The St. Pats tussle was a sparkling thriller. Three overtime periods were used, with Mt. Car- mel losing the game when an opponent sank a basket in the fatal sudden death period. Not only are they a consistent team, but a very good defensive and offensive unit, one that plays hard at all times whether ahead or behind. Main springs are: Dick Chuck Dziendziel-guard - only 8th grader on team - averages 10 points a game. Ed Kroll-guard - helps Chuck control team. Matt Zajchowski-forward - alert at all times - likes shots from corner. Bill Stewart-good ball handler - forward - fair shot from 10 sec. line. Ed Urbanek-center - controls the back-board - tallest man on team - has one more year. Scores Mt. Carmel Mt. Carmel Mt. Carmel Mt. Carmel Mt. Carmel Mt. Carmel Mt. Carmel Mt. Carmel CYO ....,,,.
