Racquetball Player Gains Fame
By HASKELL COHEN
(Copyright 1977, JTA, Inc.)
Marty Hogan, 19, of St.
Louis, is the national rac-
quetball champion. Why
should we be concerned
with a lad who has an Irish
cognomen?
Despite his family name,
Hogan is a practicing Ortho-
dox Jew. His mother, Goldie
Roth, married a gentleman
by the name of John Hogan
early _in life and sub-
, sequently divorced him. She
now serves as racquetball
instructor at the St. Louis
Jewish Community Center
where her son acquired his
dexterity in the nation's
fastest growing sport.
A cocky, but not too
brash, young fellow, Hogan
just knows he can beat any-
body on the racquetball cir-
cuit. Racquetball, for the
uninitiated, is played with a
small hand racquet on a
four wall handball court.
The game was developed
several years ago in Con-
necticut and has expanded
rapidly across the country.
The top players seem to
congregate in San Diego
and Hogan, consequently,
has moved to that area,
where he attends San Diego
State University.
The racquetball tour is 10
Out-of-town visitors?

months, from early Septem-
ber through July. In the
first two tournaments con-
ducted so far this year in
Milwaukee, Wis., and West-
bury, L.I., Hogan ran off
with first place honors. In
both tournaments he copped
first prize of $4,000 in each
of the two events.
Prior to his rapid rise in
the racquetball field, the
outstanding star was an
attorney by the name of
Charles Brumfield out of
San Diego. When you talk to
Hogan he passes Brumfield
off very lightly despite the
fact that the latter was con-
sidered the greatest player
in the brief history of the
game up until this time. A
confident, smiling curly-
haired Hogan told us, "I can
take Brumfield any time I
walk out on the court."
Apparently this is so since
once he started beating the
former champion he has
continued to do so right
along.
"To begin with, the two
National Junior Champions
hail from the St. Louis JCC.
My younger sister, Linda, at
14 is a National Junior
Champion. Then, there is a
boy by the name of John
Klearman, also 14, who is
the boys National Junior
Champion. There are two
sets of brothers who are
going to make their mark in
the game and if anybody
beats me, and that's going
to take an eternity, it will
probably be one of these
four boys. There are two
Cohen brothers, Danny 17
and Doug 15, who give me
good workouts, and then
there is Davis Gross, who is
quite a professional at 13,
and his kid brother, Andy,
at 9, definitely has to
become, if he continues at
the rate he is going, the
future national racquetball
champ. Another outstanding
young star in the St. Louis
area is Doug Weisman, who
is 15 years old.
"Among the pros, my
toughest competition, is
from Jewish boys, probably
the best being Jerry Hili-
cher. While others who are
doing quite well picking up
substantial sums on the rac-
quet tour include Steve
Serot, Mike Zeitman, Don
Rubenstein and Ben Koltun,
you can see for one reason
or another the sport is ideal
for our Jewish players.
There are a couple of good
female pros coming along,
the best at this point is Jan
Pasternack out of Houston,
Texas."
The beauty of the sport,
apparently, is one can get a
good workout in a half-hour
as compared to, say, two
hours of tennis play. Also it
doesn't cost very much in
equipment. All that is
required is a pair of sneak-
ers, shorts, a racquet which
can be obtained for $20 or
less, and balls which sell in
the vicinity of $3 a can.
