On the School Scene Orchids To Oar Winters! Our school made the headlines last week in two widely different fields o f activity and we are du ly proud o f the honors reflected on Us by our winning pupils* In the scholastic field three sen iors placed high in county compe tition, one o f them, Don Ghes- nut, taking state rank, Don plac ed third in the county competition among the ninety-six seniors chosen for the test from the up per forty per cent o f their classes; Viola Ferguson placed eleventh in the county, and Don Turner twenty-first. Out of 10,402 pupils contending throughout the state, Greene county boasts four pupils to receive honorable mention iron* the state: two pupils from Xenia Central, one from Osborn and one from Cedarville. Along the sports* line, our basketball teams were awarded three trophies on Saturday night at the Field House; The Varsity team received two first-place trophies, one fo r the league season, and the other for first place in the Greene County tournament. The Cedarville Jun ior High team also received the consolation trophy for the Coun ty Junior High tournament. We believe that much of their achievement was due to the training rules which the boys kept, and also their teamwork in playing the game. In giving cred it we should not forget the praise due Coach Walker. In regard to the district tourna ment, we C. H. S. fans owe our support to our team 100 %. Let’s all get behind them! . Indians Draw Phillipsburg Tuesday evening at the Cen tral YMCA in Dayton, the pair ings for the local ‘B’ District tournament were held. Cedarville will—as they did last year-open the tourney, facing a tough Phil lipsburg five at 7 o’clock, Wed nesday evening. Phillipsburg, who won the Montgomery county league championship only to place third in the county tournament, boasted a good record o f 16-2 at the end o f their regular season,! while Cedarville had a 16-2 count. The Indians now hold an impres sive 19-1 slate. Many fans expect the opening game to be one o f the closest games o f the first round o f the district tourney./ The second contest o f the doub- le-bill an Wednesday will feature WaynesviBe against Xenia East. The winner o f the Cedarville- PhiUipsbnrg game will oppose “ seeded” West Milton in the sec ond round on Saturday night, SPORT VIEWS Indians Take Tourney The Cedarville Indians made it 18 straight and a perfect season as far as league and tourney play are concerned by defeating Beavercreek Thursday night in the finals o f the Greene County Tournament, 37-35. The battle was a typical thrill er all the way as the lead chang ed hands several times. The Beav ers led all the way as the lead changed hands several times. The Beavers led; most of the way through the first half, having a 17-14 advantage at the half. How ever, as they had done in their previous tourney clashes, the In dians turned on the power in the second half; but this time it was not so easy- Cedarville pushed a- head late in the third quarter and managed to stay there until the finish. A t one time Cedarville held a lead of 33-28. But Beaver wasn’t out o f the game by any means. Trailing 37-33 with less than a minute, they made a last- minute try to cop the victory. But, although they did close the margin by two points, Cedarville was not to be robbed of the win. Managing to hold the ball in the final fifteen seconds, the In dians emerged Greene County Champions, whining by a score* of 37-35. Paul Vast and Roger Coy came out on top for the scoring honors o f the evening, each with 13. Melvin Tackett was second fo r Cedarville with 8 , while Jim Stew art greatly contributed to the In dians cause by holding Beaver's highly-touted Bob Durnbaugh to 3 points, SCORE EY QUARTERS Cedarville 8 13 25 37 Beavercreek 9 17 24 35 Beaver Jr. High Cops County Titles On Saturday night in their match with Beaver to determine JrJHi county champions, Cedar- viUe’s Jr.-High fought valiantly tiH the very end, but were final ly*defeated by the Beaver Juniors 29*27 in an overtime thriller.

Cedarville Jrs, . Lose to Beavercreek Coach Boyer and his charges lost a heart breaker Saturday nigjit at the Xenia field house. O f course we’re speaking of Ce darville Junior High’s crack basketball team. The people of Cedarville who were there got a glimpse of what Is in store for them in future years. We think we’ll have another championship team in these boys. They handle themselves well and some of them look a little- like varsity material now. Beavercreek was fortunate in as much as they were leading when the over time ended, but it could just as easily been Ce darville. The game was close all the way, with Beaver having a slight edge in the first half. At the quarter mark Beaver led 7-5 and at half time they still led 8-7. In the third quarter both teams really caught fire, pouring 21 points through the hoops. Ce darville collected 11 o f these to notch the score at 18. Both teams got 8 points in the final quarter running the game into an over time. McMillan’s long shot in the final seconds of the fourth quar ter was Cedarville’s life saver, but it just prolonged the final outcome. In the overtime Cedarville could only collect 1 point while Beaver collected 3. Cedarville passed up many opportunities by missing many lay-up shots. They worked their way int<> an average of three goodshots to about one for the Beavers but they just could n’t connect. It’s still the score that counts! We’ll be looking forward to seeing this team ’ action in the future. BOX §CORE Cedarville B. F . P.

An inspired Indian quintet took the floor as they proceeded to tear the Phillipsburg defenses to shreds. Stewart opened the canto with two beautiful running push shots and a charity toss. Tackett followed with another nice push’ shot, and “Abbie” dropped one in on an over the head push shot. Bolts took time out to try to get started again but they could only •gather enough-strength to match the Indians scoring punches.

House .if it was just a shot, in the dark we’ll never know, but it was the right move putting Williams in the game. One, two, three straight baskets from thq pivot position. The fans, to their utter surprise realize Spring Valley is back in the ball game now only one point behind. Williams steals the ball and here he come for the basket but he’s fouled. The fans are in hysteria as Williams ap proaches the foul line, He poses, the ball is in the air—zip, “Noth ing but cotton!” The counts all even, the fans are all up cheering * and Williams hasn’t blinked an eye. Spring Valley takes the ball out of bounds and here comes „ the ball again—to. Williams, fie misses this shot but- he regains possession on the; rebound. A quick pass under' the basket to a team mate and a- basket. Now the fans are spell bound, no one can quite realize just, what is happening. Thre’s the gun, it’s *all over! Whose got an asparin! It’ ll take several days before the Beavers know just what hap pened but i n . case they donlt know yet we’ll tell them. It w& Williams. GOOD SPORTS A referee really takes a beat ing when he works a basketball' game. In this case he got his “ kicks” . A Beavercreek cheer leader ran out on the floor and kicked Jim McDonald ‘after , he called a foul against one o f Beav ers players. ' I guess Spring Valley humili ated Beavercreek pretty bad.-The team wouldn’t even appear to- accept their third place trophy at the presentations. Spring Valley won the Sports manship trophy. A wise decision. We would like to say the fans were great as a whole, cansider ing the closeness-of the games. Bryan was a close contender for the honor as well as Silvercreek.
