Page Four CLOUDBUSTER — SPORTS Friday, January 19, 1945 ^Buster Quintet Seeks 9th Win In Row Ringmen To Fight Against Handicap In Virginia Match Cloudbuster boxers will enter the ring against Virginia at Charlottesville tomorrow with a two-bout handicap for failing to produce fighters in the ban tam and heavyweight divisions, Lieut. James A. Young, head coach, stated yesterday. Cadets here are not light enough for the 120-pound class, he explained, and a good heavy weight has not yet been un covered. Starting with a two-point deficit, the ’Buster battlers will have to take five of the six events to win the match, or four to tie. Slated to carry the Pre-Flight colors are James Calvey in the 127-pound class; Albert Salkow- ski at 135 pounds; Byron R. Hostetler at 145 pounds; James MacConnachie at 155 pounds; Milt Schumacher or Howard Anunson at 165 pounds; and J. J. Packo at 175 pounds. The Virginia Cavaliers last week dropped a close 5-4 match to Emory & Henry College which Pre-Flight previously defeated, 5-3.

[jg) Dye Tough on Defense For ^Buster Court Opponents Important steadying force of the Cloudbuster basketball five is Lt. (jg) William H. H. Dye, n, better known as “Tippy.” Though not listed among the team’s top scorers, the diminu tive Dye, who stands 5’ 7” and tips the scales at a mere 142, is a giant on defense and a vital cog in the steadily improving Cloudbuster quintet. His close guarding and tricky floorwork make him a persistent thorn in the side of all Pre-Flight op ponents. He also is serving as assistant coach to Lieut. Raese. A native of Harrisonville, O., Lt. (jg) Dye attended Ohio State University where he partici pated in football, basketball, and baseball, winning four letters in each sport. In 1937 he was selected as quarterback on the All-Big-Ten eleven, and the same year made the All-America bas ketball team as guard. From 1939 to 1941, Lt. (jg) Dye served as athletic director at Grandview High School, Colum bus, O. He next became varsity basketball and assistant football coach at Brown University, Providence, R. I., returning to Ohio State to take on the job of assistant football, basketball, n vrs and varsity baseball coach in 1942-43. Entering the Navy in May, ’43, Lt. (jg) Dye attended the 11th V-5 officer training class at Chapel Hill. Commissioned an ensign, he remained at the ter mination of the course and was assigned to the athletic depart ment. He became aide to the Executive Officer in March of last year.

The Cloudbusters continued their winning ways on the hard wood last week by triumphing twice over Camp Peary to give themselves an eight-game win ning streak going into the tilt with the tough Naval Air Station team at Jacksonville, Fla., to- morrow night. Win No. 1 over the Pirates came at Camp Peary, Va., last Saturday when the locals surged into the lead four minutes before the half, were never headed thereafter, and went on to win, 55-42. Win No. 2 was gained in Woollen gym last Wednesday when the visitors scored 62 points—enough for victory in most court games—only to have the high-flying ’Busters roll up 75 points to take the free-scor ing contest. Otto Graham, ace forward, proved too much for the visi tors, as for the second time this season he swished 27 points into the loop. Graham made good oH 10 field goals out of 21 attempts, and on seven out of eight charity tosses. In winning nine of 11 contests this season, the ’Busters have scored a total of 616 points, for an average of 56 per game. They have held their opponents to an aggregate of 470, or 43 per game.
