Center Wins Twice in Holiday Tourney H y Jim Kei ss The second annual Center Moriches Christmas Tournament not off to a (, 'uoil start as Moriches and Eastport triumphed. In the ni«hteap the Red Devils surprising l y upset, the William FlovdV Colonials . P aced hy Cal Bullock and Al Roth , the Devils out- p layed Floy d in a IK-IS duel. Bullock , a Moriches guard, struck for I 1 points - . M \ of them coming from i> the foul line. The other guard , Al R o th , sunk five shots from the out- side, giving him a total of ten points. Aloriehe- , experimented with a new defense. After their oppone- nts took tile rebound on the Devil half of the court , the Moriches forward and center would hustle back to play a zone defense. The guard' s job was to then press the men bringing the ball up court. This new defense worked quite well and may be the answer to many of the Moriches problems. The scoring spread consisted of Center Moriches moving out in front, some times b y as much as 1(1 point. - - , and then Floyd mak- ing a quick comeback. This rhyth- mic patti rn continued throughout the game. In the final period Moriches . successfully froze th. . ball for over two minutes , giving them their first victory. Ironically, this was only an exhibition game. In the night s earlier game Kastport edged Bellport by one point in a I I-It! clash. Like the final score, the entire game was close. At first both teams found it hard to adjust to the Moriches court . and defense prevailed. As the half neared . the lead exchang- ed hands several times. The last time was for the good of East- port and they held a slight 18- lti lead. In the second half , each team ' s shooting definitely improv- ed. As the end of the game closed in. tension rose , and both teams lough despe rately. Each squad dii l not stop righting until the fi- nal buzzer had sounded. The to- tals gave Eastport a 4-1 -4:> vic- tory Henry Hof and Terry Jack- s on scored 112 points apiece to pace Ea s t port. Second Ni ght The Red Devils of Center Mori- che. - and the Whak . ' . > ' of Sag Harbor toppled their respective opponents in the second night of the holiday tournament. In the Center Moriehes-Eastport game , the Red Devils jumped from a one point first quarter to a li* point second quarter. Unlike their first e n c o u n t e r with William Floyd, the Devils started with a man-to- man defen- se. Going into the second quarter , the score was 6 to 1 , Eastport. It did n ' t take Moriches l o n g to ti e, and then take the lead. After pas- sing Eastport , the Devils stayed out in front for the entire game. It was in this second quarter that Mo riches caught fire. At the half it was 20-M , Center Moriches lead- in g. The second half can best be de- scribed in the words of the Cen- ter Moriches coach. Clayton Huey w ho said , \It wasn ' t until the se- cond half that we began to click. \ At times the Devils lead b y lti points. The closest Eastport came was seven points at the end of the third quarter. The Red Devils held on to their precious lea d to end the game with a -I' .l- ' .l ' i vic- tor y. In the evenings first game. Sag- Harb o r def e ated Sa ch e m , 02-17. P r obabl y Sa c he m ' s biggest mis- take was in the first period when they allowed Sag Harbor to rack u p a 20-3 lead. Throughout the entire game the Sag Harbor of- fense consisted of feeding their ( i-2 center. Tom Bubka. Buhka took home the ni ght ' s scoring hon- ors with 24 points . The other high scorers were Paul Babcock . Char- lie Holden , and Jerry Van Deryt. Each of these players hit for 10 points apiece. The game ended wi'h a (52-47 Sag Harbor win. On Saturda y night Center Mori- ches will meet Sag Harbor to de- cid e the final tournament victor.

Hall Hollow lau it.i iweni \ -one point. - in the quarter but the Setonites outdid them as they netted 28 counters.

The recreation director will now set dates to hold similar confabs with lcpresentativs of tin- sol ' tball teams and also all of the baseball leagues. The winter meetings make for a smoother operation when the seasons otliciall y open. It is the plan this year to prepare the schedules earl y in order to prevent unnecessary delays later on. For this reason it is important that teams planning to participate in the various pro- grams announce tiieir intentions well in advance. As for the slo-ball program , the format of < iteration will follow pretty much along the lines of one year ago v. ; 'h the North Patch- ogue League utilizing the Hallock Park site and the North Bellport League play ing at North Heliport. All of the games will he played under the lights and as of this writing; the only decision to be made is which leagues the teams involved are going to play in. Both leagues will open on the same night , April MO. w' lb tin- season being divided into two hakes with the wrap coming about during the second week of August. Playoffs to determine the town champions in all of the outdoor diamond programs will be played before Labor Day, probably during the final two weeks of August. UKSCME COURT ACTION -- After the short recess provided by the Chri s ii i .a. s , and New Vear holiday the basketi crs . young and old , win , part icipate in the town hoop urogram are back at it to take up while they left off. The Midget Leagues at Center Morich'\ - -md Mn-ti \ v. -i 'I e- . o-age in double headers Saturday at !) a.m. as will the North Patchogue- .Me.ll ' i.rd League who operate out of Tremont Avenue School. As fm the O pen Di\ision the A and H League teams tapped off last night at Paicb. i.gtie High and will now continue through the 22nd day of Mai th. Tonig ht at the PJIS one of the best twin bill attractions of the entire season will be featured as the Swan Cleaners engage the Brookhav 'ii Asp halt in the opener with the Oasis Five and the North Babylon Duns both trying to keep their undefeated strings intact in the nite cap. If all of the four clubs who piay toni ght are fortunate enough to be at fu 'l strength the action should prove interesting. Swan Cleaners who started the season oil' with depth to spare paid the price of a pool turnout in their last game against Cordon Heights when they ran out of steam after enjoy ing a thirtcen-point cushion at the end of the first half. The Oasis Five has in its first three games appeared to have the most solid club in the A Class as Dick Jamison . Art Rate and Pete Newham have propelled the club along the winning route. Don Willis has had trouble getting started ; however , he figures to improve his ten point per game average as the season wears on. In tonight ' s contest the Dons will have the edge in the all-important height department as Pat Grady and Mike C' avaleire figure to be the chief thorns for the locals. Grady has averaged 22 points per game to date while Cavaleire rests at 24. ' Whil e Ca v al e ir e ' s baskets have come primarily from un- derneath . Grad y has been very effective from the outside with long one-banders. As we stated before the season began , the c lub s to beat in the A Class are the ()asi< Five , X. Babylon and the champs of one yeal ago , the LaBua Clinpers. The picture has not changed since that time The winner of tonight' s game which will begin at about 8:45 p.m. could conceivabl y be the club which picks up all the marbles after the season ends In the B Class the competition seems to be balancd more evenly with just about any club in the league still having a good chance to sweep on through. During the past two weeks the hottest team in the league has been Gordon Heights who after dropping a pair have come on with imprei . dve wins over the Swan Cleaners and Island Coal. The boys fiom the Heights have been sparked primarily in their last two outines bv the great play of Paul Powell who starred for Bav Shore High a season ago. Powell , along with Mel Robinson, Jim Newsome and Don and Rosey Price have made the picture look a lot brighter for Gordon Heights. MIDGET FINALS—A slight change in the method of conducting the Midget hoop finals will be tried out this season when instead ol matching' the champ ionship clubs from each league , all star teams - will be selected to represent each loop with the winning club carrying home the tournament trophy to their sector. It is felt by so doing, boys who have p layed well on the also-ran clubs , will receive the opportunity to perform in the championshi p contests and at the same time make fe r more interesting- competition in the pre-teen action. It will also prove to be a big incentive to those boys who participate as they strive to polish up their game so as to qualify for selection later in the season. JUNIOR DIVISION PLAY— lim Reese has announced that the Junior Division or Teenage basketball activity is ready to begin and that gam. s will be played at Tremont Avenue , Bay Avenue and Waverly Avenue Schools. A number of teams and individuals have contacted the Recreation Department announcing that thev are interested in being consider, d and now the time has come to prepare the schedules and start the season on its way. The deadline for announcing- your intention to play in the Junioi Division program has been set for Monday. The activity is open to all boys who are ci'iTcntl y attending school and who are not participat- ing mi a scholastic team. Games will be played on weekday evening. - at the schools mentioned above and the season will wind up late in March. Teams or individuals interested in p laying should contact the recreation director at the Town Hall without delay. MOVIE PROG RAM—During the past two years one of the most popular recreation pastimes for our younger township citizens has been the showing of the 16-mm movies in the scattered communities where a movie theater is not close by. The recreation department has been fortunate in securing some of the better feature movies as well as the always popular cartoon shorts. Now that the Christmas vacation period is over the movies will be resumed with an open invitation extended to everyone , young and old , to attend. The weekly schedule I ' m- the movie showing can be secured hy calling the recreation director at GRo.er 5-5500. Patchogue HS Draws Fourth In Hauppauge Yule Tourney By James Barbanell HAUPPAUGE — It seems that Patchogue High Schoo ' * , basket- ball team could do no better than fourth place in the annual Haup- pauge Yuletide Basketball Festi- val. Last Thursday in the semifinals , the Retl Raiders weie defeated b y Northport o2-47 after drawing a bye in th\ opening round. Two nigh's later in the co i-o ' ation game for th' rd p lace, the loca ' . s were halted by Central Is ' .ip (i. 'l- \ ,7 to finish fouith for the second yar in a row. John Stevens , with IS points , led Central Islip to its third traight victory over a Patch- ogue team in the last 12 nioii.hs md ri'peatj d the Musk'-teers ' (10- \ >il victory over the Raideis in the con-o ' ation round of last year ' s tournament. But Saturday ' s contest wasn ' t close as the score might indicate. Central Isli p start ' ng slowly against the Patchogue zone de- fense , took the lead for good in the final minute of th e openin ¦ quarter and was never headed. It was Hi-l. 'i at the end of the luarter , 'iS-2(i at halltiine an 1 51 -:J7 at th\ end of three periods. Buddy Black. U s ually Centra ' Islip ' s high scorer , fouled out with less than five minutes to go in the third period and the Musketeers on top :' e ' -:' .2. But he was never misled as the Raiders faded to take advantage of his absence. Stevens iinniediatelv took nv\ . the scoring load and poured in nine of CI' s next P! p oints to break the game wide op-n. In the final eight minutes, the Musk<- ' et rs increas \d their lead to greater proportions , reaching a high of 17. . r )(;-:!!t . with apnroxi- matel y four minutes to go in the game. It was at this point that Pat- chogue came oiu of its lethargy. With Klwyn Schaefer (S) and Bud Rooney (ii) . spearheading the drive, the Raiders sliced th» b' g (T margin to 02-57. But it came too late as onl y six seconds re- in:, incl in the game. Harvey King, whose foul sho ' . in the la-t two . -econds gave the Musketeers its victory over Pat- chogue in last year ' s tournament , sank an insurant- \ free throw for the game ' s final margin. Rooney was Patchogue ' s high . -ci rer with 22 points. Schaefer who twisted his ankle in practice two weeks ago Saturday, p la y d his first game since the injury and contributed 12 points . The (i-4 senior and second high scorer entered the game late in the sec- ond period and p layed the entire second half without reinjuring the ankle. Schacf'T ' s absence obvioush lif t the Haulers ' chances against Northport. With 0-5 Richie Conk- d n and .i-5 Jim Ruck dominating both backboards , the Tigers had in. trouble po-ting an easy vic- t( ry in the sloppy contest. C' inkli' 1 led al 1 scorers with 2 1 po ut s while Ruck wound up with 15. The Tiger duo scored 21 points between them in the first if. m i nutes as Northport . -purled te a commanding- :i7-21 l\ad at the halfway mark. Rooney, Patchogue ' s big gun, was heni to 15 points in his worst pel formance of the season. His pas s ing, ballhandling and shoot- ing were completely off as the ii-1 senior made onl y five of 18 shots from the floor and sank just five of 1. '! f ree Hi rows. With its two big men pacing the attack. Northport j umped to an 1S-7 lead at the end of the first period and at one stretch ran off It ; straight points to open a 25-7 margin early in the second quarter . T h\ Raiders c ame to lif e in th e th.rd quar.er hut could never got close. However , the locals crept to within 10 p oints , 51-41 , early in the last stanza, niut they thi--w aw ay their chances to draw even as Northport hit a streak of seven st ur g ht points to put the game oiu of reach. Th\ two setbacks gave the Raiders a 5-. '5 record , in elud rig three in their last four games. Last year at this stage , the Red and Black were 4-4.
