WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 3, 19 AO Tampa Won Series, 5 To 4; Composite Box Box Score Listed By OSCAR L. SCAR L. MILIAN The composite box score of the Labor Temple nine of Tampa and Key West baseball series shows that every player in the Monroe County League took part in the games played at Trumbo Field auring the holidays. Playing nine contests in all, the Tampanians won the series by a one-game margin, capturing five losing four. aturday afternoon, 23, they defeated the Trojans, Monroe County League second- half pennant winners; then drop- ped a decision to the Key West Conchs, Sunday, December 24. The visitors again met defeat by Marvin Griffin’s All-Star hitters, Christmas Day, with Armando Acevedo and Jackie Carbonell stealing the show. Tuesday, De- cember 26, the Ybor City lads tied the series by whipping a strong Blue Sox aggregation; Armando Acevedo’s home steal- ing and Norman Artman’s four- bagger to left center with two men on board were the out- standing features. Last Saturday morning the Pi- rates bucked up against the La- bor’ Temple nine in the first of a three-game series between these two teams. The West Coast boys walked off the field with a hand- some defeat at the hands of Sal- inero and his mates. Tampa came back strong, however, in the second game of the series played Sunday morning and nos- | ed out the Bucs in a closely con- tested game, in which Specs Car- bonell pitched his first game in more than thirteen weeks and was the outstanding star with 10 strikeouts to his credit at the time he v forced to leave the game in t seventh inning be- cause of indisposition. In Monday’ December :afternoon’s doubleheader the Pi-! rates once more bowed to the invaders. Facing the Conchs for the sec- ond time in a week, Fabian’s boys defeated Roy Hamlin’s bombers Sunday afternoon. New i Year’s Day the Tampanians split a doubleheader by taking the Pi- rates (as mentioned above) into camp in the first game and, bow- ing to a picked team, composed mostly of Blue Sox players, in the nightcap. Official records indicate that the visiting club outhit local! teams by 11 clouts. The hitting star for the Tampa club was Baby Morgado, bushy-haired pitching- third baseman. Morgado poled 19 safe hits, including two dou- bles, and knocked in five runs for his team in the series. He took part in every game. Out- standing Ybor City fielders were Phillip Schiro, Sam Pizzolatto, Longval, Orihuela and Lopez. Armando Acevedo, with 10 hits to his credit, was the star for the locals and while he also shared in the fielding honors and base- stealing, credit must also be given to brother Albert, who made a sensational catch in the morning contest Sunday. The most talked took place in the afternoon of New Year's Eve in the Tampa- Conch contest, when, with a man down and two on, Key West bat- ting in the fourth inning, Jackie Carbonell smashed a liner to third base, Artman captured the ball, dropped it apparently purposely, picked it up with a flash, tagged third and pegged to first to com- plete an unassisted double play. Although this was against the Key West club fans applauded the quick and intelligent play.

PETE, NEBO ENDING Enroute To State Asylam’ HIS BOXING CAREER Pee Nebo, topnotch fighter ai a bygone era in Key West and other parts of the country, today began paying for the many beat- ; ings he took in the roped arena. He is enrcute to the Florida State | Hospital at Chattahoochee, ad- judged insane and scheduled to remain in that dour institution | | indefinitely. Pete Nebo once rode the wave of high pugilistie ability and great public popularity. He was a good fighter, a nifty boxer and! he took on all comers. He regu- | larly went out of his own fea-| therweight division to take on heavier men, vicious men with mean punches that left their | marks on Pete’s skull and brain. | In his day he fought such rank- ing fighters as Bennie Bass, to| whom he lost a close and ques- tionable decision in his quest for the featherweight championship; Al Singer and Tony Canzoneri, | who is still going to the pugilis- tic wars, but finding the going | very, very tough indeed. | Pete made money, plenty of money. He saved very little. It went to those who matched him | and for various items of expense that pile up on rising young fighters with no business ability along with their fighting hearts and hands. About all Pete got; for appearing before the blood- thirsty fight fans was a funny buzz in his head and the harm- less and hopeless quest for the | countless dollars that he had lost | —or had been stolen from him. Of recent weeks, Pete’s abode had been the county jail. Some} of the last threads of his sanity | had snapped. Last December 16} he had been adjudged insane, | so it was decided to put him where his poor battered body} could be treated, where he could | do no harm to himself or others. | It was the end of a glorious fight | for life and liberty for Pete. | Pete was docile and cheerful when he left county jail this! morning with Deputy Sheriff Bernard H. Waite at the first leg of the trip to Chattahoochee. | County Judge Raymond R. Lord had signed the commitment pa- pers and the hospital board had provided for his care and treat- | ment. “Last year wasn’t such a good | year, but 1940 should be a good | year for me”, Pete declared as he departed wi vith the deputy. | The fight fans of Key West! who knew Pete in his prime all) wish him the best of luck.
