■*"■* Iffilay, -Pebruary> 25,, 1949 Beaver Continued From Page One tion round as they took advan­ tage o f a first half scoring spree. The Vikings were out in front at the end o f the opening period bv a 10-7 count and held the halt­ time lead 24-12. A t the end of the third period it was Silver by 24. Bryan 40, Spring Valley 33 Spring Valley’s Spartans, pre- tournev favorites and county league' winers, were eliminated fo r the annual event by a sharp shooting Bryan aggregation by x\\‘' score o f 40-33. Bryan took a long lead in the first period 15- 5, but Valley kept pecking away and the halftime count was 17-14, Bryan. The Spartans caught up momentarially and took a 23-22 lead at the end o f the third per­ iod. Bryan got rolling again in the final stanza and quickly went into the lead again and held o ff Valley’s late rally. ON THE SCHOOL SCENE Continued From Page One Indians Post Semi Final Win Cedarville Indians continued on their way toward the goal of a Greene County Championship when they downed the Bryan Bulldogs Saturday night. It was not until the second quarter that the Cedarville five scored their first field goal, hut, having a- chieved that, they were on their way to victory. Paul Vest con­ tinued to lead his teammates in scoring, with a 17-point total, nine o f them being made from the free-throw line. As the smoke cleared away from the final gun, the score stood at 38 to 31, much to the pleasure o f the Cedarville fans. Wahoo: Waliool Here Conies the Indians! Basketball fever is running high within and without the por­ tals o f C. H. S. during these tournament days. Our Indian warriors made a very striking appearance in the opening game of the tournament, with their new red, modish bas­ ketball suits. Melvin Tackett set the score- board at the Field House to work Wednesday night, by scoring the opening* goal of the 1349 Greene 'County Tournament. In the game with Beillrooic, Abie Vest scored 29 points, matching the Eagles’ 29-point total. Vest was again liigh-point man for cur team in the Biyan-Cedar- ville game, with 17 tallies to his credit, making his total 46 for the two games. Our second \ictoiy brings us to the elhna:; o f the tournament, tk: Championship game. The 0. K. S. quints will face Beaver for this play, which will be on Thurs­ day night. . . . Cat-Hats Versus Knee Socks Just in case you noticed a change of dress styles through­ out the school in the last day or two, think nothing of it, ( ’cause it’s the latest style). The boys are really stepping high, wide, and handsome in their new cat-hats, which are the last word in chic. Jerry Pitstick started the fad by wearing a cat-hat to the bas­ ketball games. Soon after that many of the boys adopted the idea and they have been wearing the new headgear to the tourna­ ment. But the girls can't let the boys get ahead of them! in the hails gaily-colored knee-length stock­ ings appear on many of the girls. So, boys, watch out what you try next! Sportsmanship “ And in the world, as in the school, I’d say, flow fate may change and shift; The prize be sometimes with the fool. The race not always to the swift. "Who misses or who wins the prize. Go, lose or conquer as you can; But if you fail, or if you rise, Be each, pray God, a gentleman.’ ’ These immortal lines, from “ The End o f the Play” by Wil­ liam Makepeace Thackeray, hold worthwhile counsel for us today even as they have for generations in the past. In tins (hanging world we must be constantly facing competition from all directions; in school work, in athletics, in adult work, and^ recreation. We cannot always he the best; we cannot be victorious in every­ thing we do. We will be defeated time and time again; but the thing that matters is that we ac­ cept defeat, as well as victory, graciously. As the verse quoted implies, sometimes we may feel that the decision is unjust and the victor undeserving, but that does not alter the fact that we must ac­ cept defeat as a part ox good sportsmanship. A t this season the competitive spirit in high school athletics is at its heighth. The tournament is one o f the strongest tests o± sportmanship facing basketball players, coaches, managers, cheer leaders, students, and fans> Our county considers the atti­ tude of good sportmanship as im­ portant as the actual winning of the ball game, because the two trophies awarded are of equal value and importance. It is our duty as students to show the spirit o f sportsmanship that gives our school the right to be proud o f u .. Nothing is more disgusting than to hear "boos’’ and retorts from the audience when some spectator disagrees with a decision made by an offi­ cial in elu rge. Our e. aeh and the boys on our team re; a good ex­ ample in their rportsnui; -lap re­ action to all decisions of the ref­ erees. Should we not all emulate their example?—7»Iaig:e Brad- fute.

Smith, warned of an apparent “ confi­ dence game” being worked in this area with two widows known to be victims in recent weeks. Explaining that the only thing known about the man “wanted fo r questioning" is that he poses as a termite exterminator from Urbana, drives a truck identify­ ing his firm as an Indiana com­ pany and bearing license plates from another area,'the, prosecutor urged that any persons approach­ ed by such a suspect contact police or the sheriff’s office at once. Last week, Mr. Smith declared the "exterminator” went to a Jamestown widow's home and told her the place had termites. Alter only eight hours' work, lie hilled her for $850. Suspecting this to be an un- ivarouablc charge, she went to the t..osccutor and to her banker. Both advised her to refuse pay­ ment. However, the man returned arid, apparently alarming her, a;;* ceu to a ■’compromise" o f $700 tor winch she wiote a check and it was cashed. The woman, telling the prose­ cutor and banker she feared a lawsuit, wrote another check fo r the man for $150 for treating trees ou her property. The “ treat­ ment,” the prosecutor said, con­ sisted of smearing axle "grease around the trunk. However, the suspicious banker stopped pay­ ment on the second check. Another widow, also a James­ town resident, was. “ taken” for $000 sometime ago, Prosecutor Smith reported. Asking the public’s coopera­ tion,. the prosecutor said: “We really want him.” The prosecutor said there had been no intention o f reflecting upon the American Termite Con­ trol Co., of Urbana, an entirely reputable firm. * Apparently the man in question operates out of Indiana, the prosecutor said.
