... that Paul Chadick performed so well in the Delaware River Basketball League that a sportswriter said it would benefit the league if he retired? Source: Rinard, Dick (February 23, 1943). "Calling the Turn". The Morning News. p. 20 – via Newspapers.com. "His play brought the following comment in the column of Bill Burk, Chester Times sports editor: "We have known it for a long time and so have most of you fans but we think it might be a good time to put it down in black and white: Paul Chadick is too good for the Delri League and is the main reason why Sun Ship has made shambles of competition by winning 23 of 24 games in two years of play. There are no players in the league who can match Chadick in all around ability, condition and competitive spirit ... It would benefit the league if Chadick was to retire."

This was fascinating! New enough and long enough. QPQ present. Hook fact checks out, and the article is richly cited. I especially appreciate the attention to detail on the newspaper citations though I caught one that needed some TLC (the pre-2011 name for the Tampa Bay Times isn't in newspapers.com for some reason). Good to go. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 18:13, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
