Tip-Off We Go ----- The season: one of the best on record. The slo Y2 Frankie Gustine, 'popular captain and in- flelder of the Pittsburgh Pirates, signed a con- lrucf OS an amazed crew of district fans watched 01' developments. They got them, but fast. J Gustine chose as his assistant Roger 'Butch' Orgeson, ex-Ohio State and professional floor Whiz. When they looked over the squad, they Qgfeed the boys were . . . lacking in size, green material and lots of work ahead. That was a month before the opener. 'Several of the boys came back after the ?ed'0CI'e 1946-7 season. Disappointed because AT WGS rated a pro due to his baseball career, B Lellp, a star of the past year, could not play. hm l9GCk into the busy, fast uniforms went such Kusilers as Ed Staycer, Pete Americo, Chuck Dflrlfwrkovich, Blaine Giurich, Cas Ziarko, Tony 'nl'f1O, Ted Dull, and Bill Beckman. tak' The Jackets were off to a propitious start in m9 The first three foes into camp before go- b9 lWOme for a real Merry Christmas. Down efofe stings went Westinghouse, Lock Haven Bee-Sandwiched or who's got it? 661,648 and Buffalo. lt was evident from the start that we had a 'second half' ball club. Proof that we were slow came in the fact that All-State bound Karmarkovich was only a substitute center at the beginning of the season! While the students were at home on vaca- tion, the Adrian game was called off because the latter were 'snowed in' in Michigan. But Lock Haven came here early in January and in the first game played on the five thousand dollar newly-donated floor of E. V. Babcock, Pittsburgh lumberman, the College Hill five won, 56-38. Fun Night came with St. Vincent. This affair is legalized rioting at a basketball game Work it in-We'll take twol and was one of many Yellow Jacket sponsored events. Bells, horns, costumes, displays and mostly noise inspired our lads to a 49-45 win. Dull, Ziarko, and Karmarkovich led the rally. We lost a pair of contests to Westminster and Youngstown, who are both going in for big- time ball, but in the Titan game, All-State Dem- binski was held to his minimum of ll points. The boys rebounded to trim the Baltimore Bees on the home court, 64-35. As the Orange and Black thumped Thiel, Coach Gustine had to clear the bench to hold down the score. lt ended 66-53. Waynesburg made in 8 wins out of 'IO games when Wash- Jeff was forced to bow, 61-49, before a packed house. While it snowed heavily outside, we snowed in baskets. Even Coach Gustine nearly missed this game due to snow drifts. A tense 3'h minutes elapsed in the game before Steuben- ville's sharpshooter Ziarko sent Waynesburg into the lead. Karmarkovich began threatening all- time college records by tallying T8 points.
