Not that Joe Lapchick is a bad guy to want, but, given a fair chance, Frank McGuire is likely to pull the Redmen into a tournament, too The futility of football polls was never more glaringly exposed than by the writhing of the experts on the Michigan-Notre Dame question. The Wolverines got away with the final word because they played the last game. I'll let you in on a little secret. Nobody knows what would have happened had the 1947 Michigan team played Notre Dame.

Everybody in sight was eliminated. Olle Tandberg, the Swedish nightingale, was unbelievably bad. He is big, well-conditioned, strong and fairly fast. But he has no knack for punching and nobody has bothered to teach him the slightest thing about boxing. How he, could have phenagled even a Swedish decision over Joe Baksi last Summer remains a mystery.

Last week at the Garden, he was in there with a rhumba dancer whose elusiveness made it a bad fight. SELL-OUT The 16th annual games of the Columbus Council at the 23d Regiment Armory Saturday night were a complete sell-out, as usual.

Pete Sweeney, the director of the games, estimated that he could rassle up a track meet that would attract five times as many people if he had a place to sfage it in our town'. It always has been Pete's contention that Brooklyn is the most track-conscious borough in the world's most track-conscious city. Brooklyn also is the most basketball-conscious community in the world. It also has a hockey franchise dormant in the National Hockey League. It also supports all kinds of neighborhood fight clubs and could support one where big-time scraps could be staged.

But our town never has realized on its potential as a sports town for lack of an adequate indoor arena. There never is any argument about it everyone agrees on what we need. But no one does anything about it. neither showed any signs that they needed a rest in the first period. Joe Cravath and Jacques Locas were sent sprawling as they rushed down on Henry but Locas took the pass before he went down and scored.

But the Rangers soon had the upper hand. "We kind of died in the third period," confessed Coach Frankie Boucher. "Rut I'm proud of the way the boys stood up and took it and dished it out.
