It was Dec 26, a Monday, the Monday after Christmas day. I was an 8th grader playing in a CYO
basketball game in the gym below the Church.
I do remember that part of the game was on
the radio on the stage.
We did win our CYO game that day ( i think we beat St Theresa)
and then we went on home.
The newspapers announced the news the next day.
Page three, below the fold of the Sports section...
The players did celebrate
their hard fought game...
things sure have changed...

I remember that CYO game. The Pauser had a triple double after going to his “individualistic game”. Jack Kraft was in the audience across from Harry Litwack.
BTW, they weren’t watching Pea. They had their eye on the halftime dribbling show performed by 4 1/2 year old, Eddie Blaze!
