Gallagher’s Purple Eagles, now halfway through their sixth season under him, have scored something like 49 victories in 50 starts at home. Niagara is the team that up- set Syracuse, St. Francis and Man- hattan last spring to win honors in the No. 1 district Olympic tryouts, only to lose to Temple, No. 2 win- ner, by a single point in the playoff. Gallagher was one of the great- est athletes ever turned out by St. Johns’ College,Bro oklyn. He won nine letters all told. He was al- ways in condition. Perhaps that'’s why he won’t tolerate any infraction of rules now that he is coach. Fires Three Cagers Shortly before New Year’s he or- dered three of his best players to turn in their uniforms for break- ing training. One was captain. The second was a 3-year veteran. The third was a junior who the pre-| vious season had been regular guard and the team’s high scorer. Gallagher’s teams have a train- ing table. Have had for years. They go in for secret drills before; conference games with Canisius and St. Bonaventure f(of the Little Three), from which students, alum-; youtfield—they average 29% years— Irish single-game record with 25 points against Pittsburgh last year. Both records formerly were held by Ed (Moose) Krause. A’ broken jaw kept Moir out of action for a while this season, but now that he is back he's making up for lost time. Real Kids, Those Reds CINCINNATI, ©., March 4—The 1937 Cincinnati Reds, “kid team of! the majors,” will go into spring| training with a roster averaging 26 years and nine months old. If it weren’t for the old-timers in the the average age would be consid- erably less. To make the statistics complete, the average height is 5 feet 117% inches, and the average weight 181. The youngest player — Eddie Mil- ler, infielder, born November 26, 1916. The granddaddy, Kiki Cuyler,! born August 30, 1899. The tallest,| Steve LeGault, 6 feet 6 inches.
