‘Grudge’ Game Seen
With Maryland ‘ll’
BY DAN MAGILL, JR.
Denny Myers, head football coach of the Boston College
Eagles who meet the Georgia Bulldogs at Boston Friday
night, October 27, is “in” for a surprise the next time he
visits his barber, Ray Scichilone, in Newtonville, Mass.
Mi. Scichilone’s stocky 205-
pound son, Joe, has decorated his
harlershop with photographs of
Un versity of Georgia football
At lzast, Myers can “scout” the
pulldogs by their photos whenever
he gets a shave,
Joe Scichilone, incidentally, is
onc of the outstanding hophomores
on the Bulldogs' 1950 squad roster.
He is a leading candidate for front
line duty at fullback both on of
fense and defense,
The hazel-eyed Sicilian-Ameri
can is not too fast but he has more
power than all other Georgia
backs. Freshman Coach Quinton
Lumpkin considered shifting him
to guard last fall but when Joe got
word of the plan he hauled off and
turned in a whale of a ball-carry
ing performance in the 18-0 vic
tory over the Georgia Tech frosh,
He also was a standout rusher in
Georgia’s intra-squad spring game.
Mack Warren, the outstanding
player in the Mid-South prep con
ference last season who will enter
Georgia as a freshman in Septem

at Columbia (Tenn.) Military ac-

Dudley Field
Ready For Play
The Recreation and Parks
Department reported today
a new, rejuvinated Dudley
Field is just about ready for
softhall participation.
Located just off Oak street, the
field is being readied for play
ground activity and the up-com
ing Teen-Age Twilight League.
The layout has been changed
from its original status, with home
plate being set up in a position
that used to be deep right field.
Several loads of dirt have been
hauled in to complete the fill-in
process. .A new 40-foot backstop,
the finest in the city, has been
erected just behind the plate. The
diamond now measures 210 feet
to the left field pole, and 195
feet down the right line.
Wayne Shields, head of the Rec
reation and Parks Department,
said that the Dudley Field area
would be open for supervised play
on the 26th of this month. John
Moyer, who umpires the Munici=
pal League games each night, will
be the playground director. Start
ing the 26th, Moyer will be on
hand frem 2:00 to 5:00 each after
noon.
As part of the city beautifica
tion plan, the area near the street
has been undergoing a clean-up
process, and is to be made into a
picnic area. A drive-in from the
highway will be constructed, with
picnic benches being placed under
shady trees for the convenience of
travelers in and out of Athens.
In connection with the Teen-Age
Twilight League, applications are
still being received. So if any
group—such as community or
church organization, or newspaper
carrier boys, would like to enter,

Joe Page Fails Yanks
As White Sox Win, 5-2
BY JACK HAND "
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
What ever happened to Fireman Joe Page of 1949 —the
greatest relief pitcher ever?
Recent work of the New York Yankees’ bullpey artist re
minds fans of the Page of 1948—an in-and-outer who flop
ped after a glarious pennant year in 1947,
Highest %iced of all Yankee
pitchers with a $30,000-plus wage,
Page failed the world champs
yesterday for the second day in a
row. With Manager Casey Stengel
struggling along on a seven-man
stalf, Page’s trouble is most se
rious. Last western trip they won
nine in a row. Now they've lost
the first two.
Bothered by a sinus infection
during the long home stand, Page
saw little action. He had a week’s
rest befor: Stengel tried him in
Chicago 7'uesday night. Joe didn’t
have it.
Allie Reynolds was one out
away from victory yesterday
when the White Sox caught up
with him, With two gone in the
pinth and New York leading, 2-1,
a single and walk by pinch hitters
Floyd Baker and Luke Appling
and a single by Chico Carrasquel
tied the score. )
Stengel took the ball from Allie
and waved in Page. Joe's third
pitched to Dave Yailley sailed into
the lower left field seats for a
three-run homer and the ball
game, 5-2. e e
Page’s failure cost the Yanks a
chance to gain on Detlroit. Instead
the Tigers clung to their half
game lead despite an 5-2 defeat
by Philadelphia.
Lou Brissie, whose only previous
victory came May 27 when he
stopped a New York nine-game
winning streak, turned in a neat
six-hit job against the league
leaders.
The Athletics handed Dizzy
Trout his first loss. Elmer Valo
and Eddie Joost hit home runs.
Slender consolation for the Tigers
was the feat of Hoot Evers, who
extended his .consecutive game
hitting streak to 19.
Five homers featured the night
game between Cleveland and Bos=
ton, won by the Indians, 7-3. Lar
ry Doby, Al Rosen and Lou Bou
dreau were the long distance
clouters for Cleveland, Vern Ste
phens and Ted Willianis for the
Red Sox. Williams collected No.
19 off Mike Garcia in the third
with one on.
Ellis Kinder continued to throw
that Gopher ball up to the plate,
yielding all three Cleveland ho
mers. Boudreau’s was his first of
the season,
Conrad Marrero held St, Louis
to four hits as Washington thrust
the Brownies into the cellar with
a 4-1 victory. The Senators had
lost seven straight to St. Louis,
National League activity con
sisted of one night game. Rain
wlnshed out the rest of the sched
ule.
The St. Louis Cardinals racked
up their seventh strai'%ht triumph
behind Max Lanier. The chunfiy
southpaw let down the Phillies
with six hits, 4-2, as St. Louis
stretched its lead to 3 1-2 games
over idle Brooklyn.
Two runs in the eighth broke a
2-2 tie, handing Ken Heintzel
man his fifth loss. Enos S"wughter
singled but was forced at second.
Marty Marion tripled to break the
tie and Del Rice drove him home
as Lanier, unbeaten since May 17
won his fourth straight.
