    I'ACiE., SIX
Altoona Manufacturer
Arraled in Collegiate
Cage Bribe Scandal
NEW YORK, Dec. 5 (IP) —District Attorney Frank Ho
gan announced today the arrest of Daniel Lamont, 44, Al
toona shoe manufacturer wanted here in the collegiate bas
ketball bribe scandal.
He said Lamont was seized at his home in Altoona early
today on a fugitive warrant and now is. being held for an
extradition hearing.
Hogan said Lamont was the
"money man" who put up the
cash for Jackie Goldsmith and
Joseph Serota to bribe Harvey
(Connie) Schaff, former New
York University star in connec
tion with the NYU-Cornell game
last Jan. 1. NYU, a heavy favo
rite, lost• by 69-56.
Hogan said Lamont wanted to
race horses which he owned in
New York in 1948 but the Jockey
Club refused him a license be
cause of hi s alleged gambling
connections.
Point Spread
Hogan said that when the de
tectives accosted Lamont in Al
toona he was carrying a paper
bag which he tried to throw be
hind a bush. It contained a gun,
the prosecutor reported.
He said Lamont told them he
had a permit to carry the wea
pon.
Of Lamont's alleged participa
tion in bribery, Hogan told news
men:
"This was a deal for NYU to
go under the point spread in the
Cornell game. Schaff falsely rep
resented that he had a teammate
going along with him in the deal.
"NYU lost and presumably
those who were in on it cleaned
up.
Beefing Got More
"The arrangements were that
Lamont would place a $2OOO bet
for the players an d that sum
would yield a $4OOO pay-off. But
shortly after the game Lamont
gave Goldsmith and Serota $3OOO,
explaining it was an afternoon
game and he could not get heavy
bets down."
Hogan said that Goldsmith and
Serota, "in turn, gave Schaff
$l9OO and when Schaff kept beef
ing about the amount, each gave
him $5O more, making the total
$2000."

One independent clash and two
fraternity bouts were waged in
the 135-pound bracket. A sharp
jabbing Jim Coffin, independent,
scored freely in his match with
Rishel with rapid-fire action to
gain the victory. Coffin was in
control all the way. Jim Darcy,
Phi Kappa Psi, and Sam Butler,
Alpha Gamma Rho, moved up in
their respective 135-pound brack
ets.
SHEEDY looked bird-seedy with his ruffled hair. He didn't know
feather to bury his head, or go on a wing-ding! "Owl I ever
get a date for the prom?" he asked his tree roommates. "You're
robin yourself of popularity, birdbrain," they chirped. "Better
be cagey and get Wildroot Cream-Oil! It's non-alcoholic! Con
tains soothing Lanolin! Grooms your hair neatly and naturally.
Relieves dryness... removes loose, ugly dandruff!" Now Paul's
flying high! The tweetest little chickadee on campus has him
out on a limb. So get a bottle
.or tube of Wildroot Cream-Oil
at any drug or toilet goods counter tomorrow. And nest time
you see your barber, ask him for a professional -application.
Then you'll really be in there pigeon!
