Jamestown Pep Young and Other Sports Ramblings
Irvin Molesworth calls Jamestown's Pep Young the main reason Pirates rode high last season. Oil tycoon William Terry and Baton Rouge talk tie-ins with local teams while Giants stay in oil hubs. College hoop moves include Bill Mann linking with McCrary next year and Connie Berry rejoining Southern Textile circles. Greenville promotes Adams-Millis to Class A, and Virgil Yow drills near Kansas City before the National Intercollegiate. Pro-biz notes mention Hymie Waxman declining Burlington rival Hardrock Harden and Lord Perry’s Texas pro stint. Local builders eye a multi-use sports and dance hall amid chatter of Tony Galento and Dizzy Dean yell matches.
