Our first president is remem bered as a generous and truth ful man and an able leader. He bears the distinctive title o f the father of his country. Our six teenth president was a rugged and unique character; to him was given the difficult task of steer ing a divided country through a great Civil War, a united nation. Because of the missions per formed hy these men during critical periods in our history, they will always live in our minds. The following quotation from Washington is thoughtf-prov’ok- ing fo r us today: "True friendship is a plant o f slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of ad versity before it is entitled to the appelation.” Cedarville Faculty Entertained A t Dolphin Home Mr; and Mrs. Delbert Dolphin were hosts to Cedarville faculty members and their wives or hus bands, Monday night, February G, at their home in Jamestown. A t 7 p. m. guests were served a delicious fried chicken dinner at small tables interspersed throughout the living rooms. Dainty valentine appointments were used by the hostess to mark the place settings. Following the dinner, games provided entertain* menfc fo r the evening. The entire faculty were present and enjoyed the hospitality c f the Dolphin home. Mr. Dolphiii is supervising principal of the Silvercroek schools, and Mrs. Dolphin is the sixth .grade teacher in the Cedar ville school. “House of Magic” r Several juniors and seniors from Cedarville attended the “ House o f Magic” , held at the Field House in Xenia, Monday at 8:30 p. m.

Demonstrations were given by new developments in the field of electricity; among these were new florescent lighting in var ied hues; the producing of move ment o f a bulb without wiring connections; causing shadows from an object to remain soine time after the object was remov ed; and other innovations along scientific lines. General Electric’s program proved highly interesting to all who attended the demonstration.

SPORT VIEWS Indians Take Lead By virtue o f last Friday night’s win over Spring Valley, coupled with Bryan’s upset of Beaver, the Cedarville Indians moved in to undisputed first place in the GCL standing at the present. This last win assures the Indians of at least a tie for first place in the league. Friday evening's contest proved to be easier than was anticipated as the Spartans were buried* by a 20-point margin, 69-49. At the start it looked like a ball game all the way, as both teams hit about all of their first shots; the teams were tied at 8 all, with more than five minutes to play in the opening canto. However, Cedarville moved out in front to lead 16-i2 at the per iod mark, and increased their ad vantage to 12 points by half time, holding a 33-21 lead. In the third quarter, the visiting In dians blasted any hope of vic tory out from under the Spring Valley five by dropping in 20 tal lies to the home team’s 11. The Spartans managed to outseppe Cedarville in the last quarter, but not enough to bring the mar gin to a smaller gap. Oedarville’s point-getters Fri* day night turned out to be the pivot men; Don Turner dropped in 7 goals and 3 charity tosses, to rack up 17 points, while Paul Vest equaled his record with 6 field shots and 5 fouls. Two other Cedar lads also hit fo r bet ter than 10; Melvin Tackett tal lied 15 points, and Don Heidorn scored 13. Roach of Spring Val ley was high man for the even ing, with 19 markers. Score By Quarter? Cedarville 16 33 53 69 Spring Valley 12 21 38 49 The last win was Cedarville's fourteenth consecutive victory, and it gives them a season rec ord of 15 wins against one defeat. Reserves Lose Thriller Leading by a slight margin in the last minute of play, the In dian Reserves saw their lead dwindle until the score was tied before the buzzer sounded, which ended the official playing time at Spring Valley Friday night. In the overtime the little Spar tans scored two points to the In dians one, to take the heart- breaker, 32-31. The Reserves trailed at the third quarter mark 21-14, but in the fourth canto they caught fire to score 17 points. Gene Purdin sparked the Indian attack with 11 tallies; however, Bruce Corrjgan greatly contributed in the losing cause with 7. Ross headed the Spartans with 11 tallies, to take scoring honors fo r the winners.

The stu dents were studying genes— that unit which contains the makeup of an individual which may be inherited,—when the dis cussion came up about the domi nant traits. In this discussion it was stated that genes for brown eyes were dominant over those fo r blue eyes. A t this point one of our brown- eyed young men, sometimes called Don Chesnut, asserted that he knew he had “ blue genes” , to which all the class promptly a- greed, as “ blue genes” or Ken tucky gabardines’’ i§ the pet name for “ overalls” with our high school gang.

JACKETS WIN TWO • In the battle for the collegiate basketball championship of Greene County last Thursday, the Yellow Jacket cagers downed State College of Wilberforce 67- 60. The game started slowly and at the end of twelve minutes the score was tied at 10-10. A poor passing and shooting exhibition °n the part of both teams ac counted for the low score at that stage of the game. B y halftime the Jackets held a 28-22 lead. . Floyd Butts and John Towns- ; ley sparked a second half attack which promptly increased the lead ■ to twelve points, hut Wilberforce came back within three points before the Jackets started hitting again and built up a bigger lead. ' Eleven men figured in the scoring , for the Jackets, hut, Townsley and Butts were the big guns with 17 and 16 points re spectively. Levison was high for the Green Wave with 19 points. On Friday night the’ Cedarville College basketeers held onto .their grip on third place in the •Mid-Ohio League defeating De fian ce 73-67 on the Cedarville court. Defiance started at a quick pace and were hitting the basket from all angles, while the Jack- : ets started slowly and were be- •hind thirteen points at one time. However the Jackets had whit tled the lead down to 37-31 by halftime. The Jackets came hack ip the Second half hot as a firecracker : and not?only overcame their balf- t time deficit built up a ten point lead for themselves. Accuracy at the foul line, especially by Walt Blateric who made 12 out of 13 charity, tosses, told the story of the game as both teams tossed in the same number of field goals, Walt Blateric and John Towns ley led the Jacket scoring parade with 28 to 21 points respectively while Puirvianee with 19 points and Walsh with 18 were high for Church Services hope that they will find a new home here.

Du- Val spoke at the “Day of Prayer fo r Colleges” at Cedarville Wed nesday Feb. 8 on the subject, “ Living is Important.” * The Revei’end DuVal maintain ed i f people are to make living worth whilp they must determine, “ 1. Why am I here and what am I to do to live in accordance with the importance of life; 2. How to live life usefully; and JJ. how to live life purposefully.” We are here to live life intel ligently. We are supposed to think to find our way in life. Do not destroy life but see it as a whole. To be a success in life we must build a philosophy of life and we must develop a faith. God has a use for* everyone that is willing to join creatively with Him in making a contribu tion to humankind. The greatest 4 tragedy to come to anyone is to come to the .end of life without doing anything to make the world better.

They belong to an or ganization that is both National and International in scope—-yet, in which each individual is im portant. Girl Scouting transmits its value to the individual girl through small groups under vol unteer leadership. The Greene County Council o f Girl Scouts is Qie Ideal organization which car ries on. the' Girl Scout program in Greene County. The council operates a county-, wide service, and within this area it will he possible, with proper financing, fo r approxi mately 875 girls to participate in and receive the full benefits from the scout program. The financial resources for carrying on the activities of the local organization must he de rived to, a great extent from pub lic subscription. This right of public support arises from the fact that the local council is en deavoring to provide its program for all girls in the county within scout age limits.* Since the aim of the council is to render service its expendi tures have been classified into service activities, or projects o f work such as, Troop Organiza tion, and Selection o f Volunteer Leadership, at the estimated cost o f $580; Adult Education Train ing,, at an estimated cost o f $985; development o f Program Activities, at an estimated cost of $7752; Camping, at an estimat ed cost o f $355; Public* Relations, at an estimated cost o f $295; General Administration and Di rection, at an estimated cost o f $410; Office Management and Records $1517; and Working Capital, at $150, which totals to $5044. On a basis o f 875 girls, the cost per girl fo r the County- wide, service would be approxi mately $6. On a local basis o f 55 girls, at an average o f $3.25 a girl, the "local committee must raise at least, $185 in order to meet the yearly budget. Mrs, Greer McCallister, as treasurer o f the local committee, heads the (ocal drive, which will start in this community Febru ary 15, and extend until the first of March. It is hoped the commu nity will hack this worthy pro ject and provide our Scouts with that-which is needed over the year.
