pet, and his Orchestra. Bids for the

Milne Seniors
Schedule Play

The Senior class of the Milne
School will present its annual
Senior play tomorrow night at 8:30
p.m. in Page Hall. The play, ‘he
Torch Bearers,” is under the direc-
tion of Joseph Purdy '51.

A satirical comedy by George Kel- Y

ley, the play concerns a small the-
ater group in a hick town which is
presenting a play at Horticultural
Hall. The troubles that befall this
group from the time the curtain goes
up until it falls are enough to drive
any director mad, and they very
nearly do this to Mrs. Pampinilli,
played by Judy Detrick, according to
Purdy. Others in the cast are Harold
Vine, Betty Lou Silberg, Barbara
Steuman, and Lois Twell.

The following State College Sen-
jors are heading committees for the
play: Make-up, Jane Cook; Proper-
ties, Georgina Maginess; and Cos-
tumes, Jacquelyn Mann.

Tickets for students of State Col-
lege and Milne School may be ob-
tained in advance for seventy-five
cents. They will also be sold at the
door for one dollar.

“Young Abes’ Study By Candlelight A ssombly Program Today

It may well be many years
before the students of State will
have to spend such a hectic and yet
memorable Thanksgiving vacation
as the past one. The tragic Long
Island train wreck combined with
freakish weather throughout left
the state awed and dazed.

The impact of the railroad acci-
dent emphasized the stark re-
alization that something must be
Peace, Herb Egert, Sophs and
Jeanne Seymour '52, and many oth-
ers certainly had reasons to be
thankful. Because the 3 p.m, train
from Albany was a half hour late,
they were unable to catch that
train which brought death to so
many. Pat Zylke '52, who was on
the train which was hit, was un-
hurt and stated her reaction to the
crash as, “Something I'll never
forget."

Joan Tantum’s parents, who were
anxiously waiting, as were all the
rest of the Island residents, received
an anonymous phone call telling
them that the best thing to do was
to inquire at the morgue and the
hospitals for any news of their
homeward bound daughter, After

Wolfe Receives
Board Position

In a letter from the College Board
Editor of Mademoiselle Magazine,
Evelyn Wolfe '51, was informed last
Tuesday that she has been chosen
to be a Mademoiselle College Board
member. As a result, Miss Wolfe
will work on the August edition of
the magazine with the other women

. who have obtained the same honor.

In order to be eligible for the
selection, it was necessary for Miss
Wolfe to submit a folder of various
material, including a literary crit-
icism, an original story, and a his
lory of her life. Moreover, she had
to give information concerning the
courses which she is taking at school
and write an essay on what she
would like to do five years from now.

Miss Wolfe was given a choice of
entering eit the liters and fic-
tion, the fashion, or the art depart-
ments in the contest. Having chosen
the former field, she had to write
an article and plan its complete lay-
out as if it were to be published in
the magazine, while disclosing how
and where she had obtained her
story

Mademoiselle holds this contest
for College Board members each
year, Undergraduate student women
from colleges all over the country
are eligible to enter the contest.

Select Seniors’ Poems
For College Anthology

Two poems written by State Col-
lege students are to be included in
the publication of the Annual An-
thology of College Poetry, accord-
ing to word received from Dennis
Hurtinan, Secretary of the Nutional
Poe ssociation. The students are
Claramartha Brawn and velyn
Wolfe, Seniors.

Miss Brawn's poem is “Desert Sil-
ver.” Miss Wolfe's poem is titled
“Suucer Eyes.” The Anthology is a
compilation of poems selected from
work entered by students of Ameri-
cun colleges.

Grand Marshall Releases Rules
For Use Of Phonograph Records

When phonograph records are bor-
rowed trom the Campus Commis-
on collection, the recurds are to be
eturned within 24 hours, according
to Virginia Norton ‘51, Grand Mar-
shal. If the records are not returned
within this time, the permission will
be rebuked.

following this advice, they finally
received another call instructing
them to call the emergency station.
"No news is good news” proved to
be true for the missing one at last
reached home safely.

The ninety mile winds plus high
waters really put a damper on the
weekend events. Electric wires dang-
led dejectedly across streets and
highways, and mingled with those
of the telephone companies’ in
knotted disorder. Darkened homes
and cold oil furnaces gave impetus
to the idea of returning to the days
of the open fireplace. Have you
ever tried to do a quick job on a
term paper by candle light or a ker-
osene lamp? It can be done!

There are few advantages to an
evening at home when the home
is minus heat, cooking facilities,
lights, radio, clocks, telephone and
when the television aerial is a tang-
led heap on the front lawn! One
wonders where all the tin roofs,
shingles, clothes lines, turkey feath-
ers and haystacks finally. settled
down!

Many schools, factories and farms
completely de-mobilized by the
storm, closed for the lack of oper-
ating power but State College suf-
fered no such difficulty and was
ready for opening on schedule,

After the recent events, most stu-
dents are anxiously awaiting Chr
mas with its quiet, restful vacation!

Representatives Discuss
Progress OF Project

An announcement concerning the
progress of the Center for Commu-
nity Study at the College has been
released by Dr. William E. Vicker:
Professor of Inter-Cultural Educa-
tion. At the first five meetings the
possibilities afforded by the Center
were discussed by representatives
from the Community, the Faculty,
and the Student Body.

It was decided at the fifth meet- ,

ing that more information was nec-
essary in order to determine fur-
ther work of the Center and its

jon for next semester. Dr

y also stated that student and
faculty help is needed to study com-
munity relations. In order to obtain
valuable information, questionnaires
will be distributed in Assembly on
Friday, December 8.

According to Dr, Vickery the new
plans will have three phases

1) to find out the degree of stu-
dent participation in’ commu-
nity and campus activiti

to find out what the faculty is
now doing in community re!
tionships,

to find what community organ-
izations are doing to improve
inter-group relations.

CASDA To Develop
Administration Project

The Capital Area School Develop-
ment Association is organizing a
seminar and project in the improve-
ment of administration ordling to.
Dr. Joseph Leese, Professor of Ed-
ucation. The organization will select
six major areas for consideration
and will discuss problems related to
that area.

The purpose of the orgunization
will be to improve administration by
comparative analysis and research.
Another feature is that specialist
service would be available to aid in
improving practices in this area

Six all-day sessions at— which
problems would be discussed would
aid in accomplishing these purposes.
A tentative budget for the organiza-
tion has been drawn up.

Rivalry Sing To Highlight

Timely Slogans Preach
Dangers Of Driving

“A thinking driver doesn’t
drink: A drinking driver doesn't
think.” “If you stop to think
you will think to stop.” These
quotations are from a list of
timely safety slogans released
by Thomas R. Gibson, Professor
of Health, With the on-coming
Christmas season, these bits of
advice take on double import-
ance. Remember, Christmas
shoppers, “Better late a few
minutes than Jaid up a few
months,”

“Those of you who have
been gleefully spraying pedes-
trians with the typical Albany
slush might keep in mind when
it freezes up that “When you
speed on ice death loads the
dice." Advice to you speedsters
who are in the habit of rushing
home from a late card game in
the Commons—“Car tricks of-
ten end in a grand slam.”

Seriously, all drivers should
make it their business to
“Drive as if your life depend-
ed upon it—it does.”

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1950

“U.S, Accuses Red China of ‘Open Aggression;’ ”
‘New War,’ Says M’Arthur; Truman Sees Aides;
200,000 of Foe Advance Up To 10 Miles in Ko-
rea’—this headline, taken trom the front page of
the New York Times Wednesday morning, follow-
ed by “U.S. Picks Site of Atom Plant ‘fo Help
on Hydrogen Bomb” make even the most phleg-
matic of us say “Look what that older generation
has gotten us into now.” .

Everybody who is anybody has made a public
statement. From General Chennault’s statement
(that he could get 400 million Nationalist Chi-
nese to fight the Reds) to the comment of one of
the local rabble rousers, waiting for his draft no-
tice, (he believes that we are blundering in foreign
policy so miserably that complete force is the only
solution) we hear solutions varied in numbers and
types to the situation.

Wednesday night Secretary of State Dean Ache-
son made the worry over possible war an official
thing with mention of the “brazen” act by Com-
munist China which “holds grave danger for the
peace of the world.”

What can we do about it? Not much—except
the usual things; go and fight, stay home and
wait, pray if you believe in it, keep a continual
hope that someday our generation will be able to
solve our problems better, and go on with our
daily activities.

Got Religion? . . .

Often a sensitive situation is presented before
a group and the reaction is strictly “hands olt.
‘This was not the situation Wednesday night in
Student Council when a discussion occurred con-
cerning speakers in Assembly. This discussion was
on a particularly sensitive subject because it in-
volved the presentation of speakers on religion in
assembly.

‘An unfortunate occurrence at the last assembly,
however, caused many to question the intelligence
of bringing speakers on religion or from the clergy
to a compulsory assembly. 1t was generally agreed
that it would not be practical to make assemblies
on a voluntary basis when outside speakers were
obtained for assembly and no one wished to sug-
gest that religious speakers be barred from speak-
ing in an assembly.

‘A motion was then made and passed that the
Chairman of the Assembly program committee
would instruct organizations presenting Assembly
speakers that their speeches be of a “universal ap-
proach,” oo

If this legislation of Student Council brings bet-
ter speakers to Assembly it will have served its
purpose. It is impossible to tell a speaker what
to say. If it were possible there would be no point
in bringing the speaker here. Perhaps in the future
there will be closer direction in choosing Assembly
speakers through this motion but an audience
which is present by compulsion or voluntarily will
still be at the mercy of the speaker as he presents
his message.

For those of us who were embarrassed or of-
fended: It is not the first or the last time where
we will be in situations (compulsory) where a
speaker's words or manner may be di urbing. This
irritation often stimulates intelligent thinking.

Those Moments

I knew it; I could tell by the
pale fuchsia glow behind her eare
and creeping up from her eroded
bosom. She wanted more than any-
thing else in the world to scream as
loud as she was able, “Bartle, stand
up. Class, I want you to take a good
look at the worst Schnook I've
ever had as a student in the last
twenty-seven years.” But I knew
that the ever anxious respect for
trousers coupled with the frustrating
security of an assistant professor-
ship would restrain her; she would
go home after class and probably
beat tne gizzard out of her pet tom
cat,

So I continued, “But miss, oh
pardon me, Doctor So-and-so, I
simply can't understand the pass-
age.” She always called on us al-
phabetically and my turn was next.
There were four minutes left in the
period. It was merely a question of
misunderstanding that paragraph
or gumming up one of my own, As
usual, I attempted to gargle on
someone else's midnight oil.

I wiped my handkerchief over my
forehead and, having previously
dipped it in the water fountain,
looked up at her with blinking eyes
and cold sweat trickling down my
cheeks,

It is unfortunately inconceivable
that anyone with such a fervant (if
slightly misdirected) devotion to
foreign languages could have under-
stood how anyone, namely, me,
could be so damnably ignorant, T
couldn't tell whether the horse was
riding the hero, or the hero the
horse; besides, the heroine was
standing around shivering in noth-
ing but a sexy subjunctive. So what?

Junin’ In The Toun
By LOU BEHRINGER

Here we are back from vacation,
with only a few weeks until another
one, so to occupy your spare time,
here are a few events going on in
Albany.

At the Playhouse, the current hit
is “For Love or Money," by Hugh
Herbert. It's a comedy about a sick
actor who lives on Long Island, and
the play stars Duncan Baldwin,
Nancy Cushman and Roberta Jo-
nay. Miss Cushman is Mrs. Baldwin
in private life, and both she and her
husband were starred at the Play-
house two years ago. The past year
they have been in a road company
of “Death of a Salesman."

The International Ice Review,
starring Eileen Leigh, U. S. Olympic
star, and a cast of 50, will be at
the RPI Field House December 4,
5, and 6. The show starts at 8:30.

The Junior Chamber of Commerce
js presenting a Hobby Show at the
New Scotland Ave. Armory Thurs-
day, Friday and Saturday of this
week.

Laurence Olivier's “Henry V" is

By FRED BARTLE

There have been millions of words
written in English that I can’t un-
derstand either.

She glared at me from the para-
pets of her textbook, “Mr. Bartle, if
you will please look closely, I shall
repeat," Her tongue licked at the
edges of her words, and they made
her mouth pucker.

The second hand of my watch—
carefully wedged in the slots of the
chair in front of me—seemed to be
utterly exhausted, for as she mech-
anically stumbled over the transla-
tion it creeped slower and slower
still, She knew the lines by heart,
and as she spoke her eyes sought
out a school-teacher’s heaven where
surely she implored her creator to
transfigure me into something, any-
thing edible so she could knead the
life out of me with her potent set
of new teeth.

There were still three minutes
BF. (before freedom) when my last
trump was forced. The word trans-
lated into the English ‘mish mash.’
I guess she knew it was coming, be-
cause she called on me without low-
ering her gaze from the ceiling.

“Are you sure you don't know?”

“Why Miss, I mean Doctor, is
there a mistrustful hole in your
heart?"

“Never mind... ah... never

mash?”

It was a success; I had moved
from the defensive to the offensive.
Probably she had translated a wierd
looking foreign word into just as
wierd ‘mishmash’ more than a hun-
dred times. Each time rationalizing
that there was no need to look up
the English meaning because no one
would ask her anyway.

She mumbled a few words about
not being an English teacher while
stealing a sly glance at her own
watch propped up under the half
open cover of her classbook. Then
she suddenly remembered that it
was time to give the assignment for
next time.

She made the usual check mark
on her list that meant I had to
concentrate on learning the first
twenty lines and a new stall to
prevent my being caught short at
the end of the period. Sometimes it
came awfully close.

One time towards the end of the
year as the class spouted from the
door T happened to catch her eye
and we both started to laugh. I
don't know whether I was laughing
at her, or whether she was laugh-
ing at me. And you know, that wor-

The Common-Stater is given the widest latitude as
author of this column, although his viewpoints do
not necessarily reflect those of the State Corse
News.

LUCKY WE'RE BACK ...

Even though we could use a few more days’ rest . . .
after fighting our way through monsoons, bassoons,
and typhoons ... not to mention little things like
train wrecks and indigestion . . . as one columnist so
aptly put it, “If you're planning to use the Long Is-
land Railroad, DON'T!" . . . incidently, on the trip
back from the Island, the center of the train had a
conspicuous sag in it, while the first and last cars
were dark and empty ... mice in those cars, maybe?
» +. compared to this, the weather seemed rather
mild .. . although the people shopping by candlelight
in the A and P and those rowing out to get the New-
burgh Ferry may not have thought so.

MONEY MOTION ...

Debate Council's motion for a $450 addition to their
budget will be voted on in assembly today .. . Student
Board of Finance feels that the money should not be
granted because it will cause a deficit in the budget
this year... but Student Council has approved their
motion .. . since Debate has proved so well its worth,
why not give them the money?

CONTRAST...

Overheard between English major and Science ma-
jor: “I wear my coat collar up, too. It’s arty that
way.” "I wear mine up to keep my neck wart

ABOUT RELIGIOUS SPEAKERS .. .

We feel that their topics should have a more uni-
versal appeal to a mixed audience such as State's .
and also since the assembly is compulsory .. . we are
in favor of informational talks about every religion.
but when they digress to conversion, the line should
be drawn.

FROM “COKE” TO COCOA...

Don't let those nippy winds get you down this win-

steaming, stimulating hot chocolate . . . other cold
drinks will soon be available, too, when the new bev-

APOLOGIES ...

Admittedly, the apologies in our last assembly were
clever and amusing... at times... but the hula,
especially at that particular assembly, caused a few
too many writhings to be fun ,. . remember that dis-
cretion might be the better in an apology.

prove the whole Audio-Visual pro-
grams in State College.

While the representatives consid-
ered immediate needs for a motion

ing yesterday's session, today the
conference will consist of a review
of the audio-visual program in its
present state and will feature an a
is and results of the meeting.

in the nation’s history. Dr. Van
Riper promises to reveal some rath-
er interesting results on the progress
that is being made to combat the
disease by the various research lab-
oratories. The chapter feels that the

personally as well as in their future

role as teachers. The public is in-
vited and no admission will be

POnring Oucr the Exchange

Pouring over the exchange, one
discovers almost everything ‘from
soup to nuts, and sometimes an
occasional view on the more serious
side of life.

Indeed the newspapers from the
other colleges are worth giving the
once over, if only to keep up with
the latest gags and college oddities

From The Wesleyan Transeript of
the Wesleyan Institute, we notice

this little poem about women's
fashions:

‘Girls when they went out to
swim

Once dressed like Mother Hubbard.
Now they have a bolder whim;
more like her cup-

Stag; “I smoke, drink, and chew,
but thank heavens I don't talk in
the library.”
d story; And there was the
sad ease of the English grammar
professor who received a theme with
no punctuation marks and died try-
ing to hold his breath till the last
page

According to LIFE at Michigan
College, here's another line about the
weaker sex: “A few women throw
themselves away, but most of them
lake a pretty good aim,”

Al the University of Rochester,
‘The Campus, the school public:
lion, sponsored a beard contest.
Since judging was to be done in a
unique way and prizes were to be
awarded to all entries, the campus
for two weeks was “haunted by men
with dark, suspicious countenances'
It seemed visitors to the college, who

knew nothing about the contest,
were quite puzzled over the situa-
tion

The beards were in connection

with the 100th anniversary celebra-
ted by the university — recently
Included also were style shows with
antique guns.

At Snowy Wonderland Ballroom Musical In Page

By IRENE BREZINSKY

Softly falling snow—doesn't it
bring forth the poetry from your
soul? A fairy land of trees gaily
bedecked in white mists—doesn’t it
make you feel like pirouetting in
Western Avenue? Heavy city traf-
fic—don't you hear jingle bells and
carols instead? Then you're all set
—for Mood, not “Indigo,” but “Win-
terlude.”

Can you wait a week? ‘Cause in
just one week you can be a part
of “Mood Winterlude.” Attired in
your frilliest formal (or best suit,
as the case may be) you can pirou-
ette, not on Western Avenue, but
in the Ten Eyck Ballroom. Not to
the tune of rumbling buses, but to
the soothing strains of Harry Vin-
cent, his trumpet and his orchestra.
Not under a canopy of lightly fall-
ing snowflakes, but under a ceiling
of gently floating balloons.

All this can mean only one thing:
the Inter-Fraternity Inter-Sorority
Council Formal, an all-college event,
a ball for all. The one prerequisite
is a bubblin’, burstin’ over of Christ-
mas Spirits, And even if you feel
like New Year's morning, don’t let
that stop you. Spirits are conta-
gious—you'll get in the mood!

The Junior Revue, “Here's New
York,” will be presented by the Class
of 1952 in Page Hall Auditorium on
December 15 at 8:30 p.m. The mu-
sical is under the direction of Pa-
tricia Dargusch with musical ar-
rangements by Edward Peene,

The idea for the revue was con-
tributed by Jeanne Seymour and
the script was written by Richard
Buck, Patricia Dargusch and Ed-
ward Peene, There are no main
characters in the musical since it
centers around the tourist's view of
New York City, The scenes—the
Bowery, Chinatown, Saint Patrick's
Cathedral and many others—have
individual sets with a backdrop of
the New York skyline.

The various committee heads for
the production are as follows: Lights,
Alan Stephenson; Publicity, David
Manly; Make-up, Henry Smith;
House, Victoria Baldino; Props, Wil-
Mam Wiley; Costumes, Doris Mul-

One Man's Opinion

One of the pet peeves of the State
Drama department has always been
the lack of maturity shown by the
college audiences, This childish at-
titude was particularly obvious dur-
ing the first play presented last
Tuesday night. The cast did an ad-
mirable job in spite of the audience.
The mood of the play as well as
the suspense factor was well real-
ized. Special mention should be
made of Roz Lack’s portrayal of the
wayward wife. Admittedly she was
distracted a few times by laughter
from the audience, but in her long
speeches she showed variety of tone,
gesture, and tempo and her char-
acterization was well sustained. Jim
Hughes held his character well and
his voice was splendid during sev-
eral of his speeches. He still needs
work on gesture and freedom of
movement, but his interpretation
wasn’t seriously affected by these
purely physical deficiencies. Anoth-
er excellent job can be chalked up
to Dave Shepard’s credit. His re-
straint and subtlety prevented the
more “corny” speeches from becom-

Garcia Directs
Wrestling Club;
Plan Matches

By DAVE THOMAS

With eighteen boys as a working
nucleus Coach Joe Garcia has start-
ed a wrestling club at State College.
Attempts are being made to schedule
meets with the J.V. and freshman
teams of other schools. A tentative
wrestling match has been scheduled
wita RPI which is in the process of
initiating this sport in their school.
The match will be held after a bas-
ketball game so that everyone in
school will be able to watch the
match

Wrestling A Spectator Sport

Wrestling is without a doubt one
of the most interesting spectator
sports that has been introduced on
the college level. It is far superior to
pro wrestling in every respect and
the intercollegiate wrestler must be
in superb condition and is governed
by very strict NCAA rules that bar
many of the illegal holds that are
used in the "grunt and groan vari-
ety” produced for the American
people.

Wrestling is a terrific conditioner.
The boys are working out on Mon-

day and Thursday nights from 7 to
9:30 p.m. The emphasis in practice
is being put on the condition of each
member of the club. The members
of the wrestling club also work out
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday
afternoons under the watchful eyes
of Tom King and Hank Fuerbach.

Calls For Wrestlers
Coach Garcia would like to have a
lot more men turn out for the squad,
He needs men to wrestle in the 114
Ib, class and also in the 123 Ib, class.
If you have any interest at all it
would be to your advantage to go
out for the squad, not only from the
standpoint of what you can learn
from participating in a sport such
as this but also for the good that it
will do in conditioning your body

Tom King and Henry Fuerbach
are the only two men who have had
any previous wrestling experience.
King wrestled on the varsity of Islip
High School and Hank Fuerbach
wrestled for Mempham High School,
Other members of the club who have
shown spectacular ability are Harvey
Milk, John Burke, Jim Bliss, and
Joe Lombardi. All the members of
the squad enfoy wrestling a great
deal and are showing a lot of im-
provement. Anyone who js interested
in the club should see Coach Gareia
as soon as possible.

SLS Sets Pace In

Face Willimantic,

Maritime School

Tonight the Varsity basketball
team opens its 1950-51 Intercollegi-
ate season with a game at Fort
Schuyler, N. Y. Their opponents
will be the N. Y¥, State Maritime
cademy. The “Admirals” will have
an all veteran squad which will be
led by Sid Van Der Zee and Jack
Lorenz, both of whom are great
scorers,

The Peds move over to the Willi-
mantic State court on Saturday
night. The “Willies” will be paced
by their three-year star, “Whitey”
Kaminski who scored 45 points
against State in two games last
year.

Injuries Hamper Pivot Spot

The Statesmen will not be at full
strength for these initial encounters,
due to the loss of three key opera-
tives, Bob Tabor, Don Krug, and
John Zongrone, Tabor, the regular
pivot man, suffered a shoulder sep-
aration while scrimmaging last week
and is lost to the team indefinitely.
Krug, a very promising freshman,
was injured in an automobile acci-
dent while returning to Albany last
weekend, Zongrone is hampered by
a chipped elbow.

This stroke of misfortune forces
Coach Hathaway to move Pete Tel-
fer to the pivot spot. Pete is a very
capable floor man and possesses a
large array of hook and jump shots.
Veterans Bob Brown, Captain Jim
Warden, Malcolm Fallek, and fresh-
man Bill Walker round out the ten-
tative starting five, Paul Carter, Al
Kaehn, and Bob Hausner are the
boys who will see a lot of service in
relief.

Face Utica on Wednesday

The Ped hoopsters make their sec-
ond home appearance next Wednes-
day against a very powerful Utica
College quintet, The “Utes” won 18
and lost 6 last year. They have four
out of the starting five men from
that team on this year's squad,

In their opener, an exhibition
game with the Alumni, the Peds won
54-43, The Grads made a valiant bid
for three periods but succumbed to
the hard running varsity in the last
ten minutes. O'Brien and Marks
paced the Alumni, while Bill Walker
and Don Krug led the College five
with 15 and 12 points respectively,

Coach Hathaway moved Abe
Blattmann, Art Goldin, and John
Allasio up to the Varsity squad tem-
porarily. This move was made to
put the team at full strength for
the rugged slate which faces the
boys from now until Christmas.
These three boys had been working
out with Coach Joe Garcia and his
JV squad,

IM Bowling;

Oarr Leads Scores With 197, 517

The Intramural Bowling League
got off to a rousing start Tuesday,
with the playing of six games, Al-
though all were not close, the games
provided some very interesting shots.

The top team of the evening was
SLS, whos 2289 was 81 points bet-
ler than the runner-up, Spearhead-
ing the attacks for SLS was Oarr
with a 197 high and a 172 average.
However, Oarr was not the only gun
in the scoring column for his team
as both Therrien and Hughes fin-
ished in the top six with scores of
163 and 161 respective

‘The second best offense went to
Potter as they spilled the pins for a
score of 2208. The key man here
was Walsh, with a 164 average. Had
it not been for his second game of
ouly 135, Lyle would have probably
have had the best score of the night,
An interesting thing about the Pot-
ter team was the fact that they used
nen, the largest of any outfit
there. This was due mainly to the
fuct Chat their opponents, the Splits,
did not get higher than 122 in the
first set.

A yea) thriller started off the
KDR-Suaints series. ‘This was a 6b4-
682 squeaker which was taken by
KDR and gave them a 2 games to 1

victory. KDR was led by Al Steph-
enson, and Johnson sparked the
Saints in their losing efforts.

In another game played the Finks
took Thurlow by a score of 2056-
1997. They also played a game which
differed by 2 points, but this was
due more to the Finks slowness in
starting than the equal pairing of
the teams,

The hardest fought game of the
evening was lost by the Jeeps to the
Beavers. Both teams got off to slow
starts but finished fast with scores
of 2105-2045, The main reason for
the Beavers success was the bowling
of Clark who finished second in the
night's standings with a 171 average.

In the final contest Dan Kelly led
the Rousers to an easy decision over
the Snafus. Danny crashed the
maples for a 143 average. As a result
both SLS teams were able to cop
victories and thus place 2 teams in
the unbeaten column, The standing
of the league follows:

1, SLS 7. Jeeps
2, EEP 8. Saints

3. Finks 9. Thurlow

4. Rousers 10. Splits

5, Beavers 1. Shafus

6, KDR 12. Fearless Five
