Addition of a fourth league
has doomed the active participants
to near $50 men and women in the
organizations and how many other
dozens are enthusiastic or at least
casual bowlers in this hamlet
couldn't guess.
Golf alone can claim nearly
as many adherents, and that
only in the few recent years.
.. Golf can claim a hundred
easily, perhaps a full les pay
ing members of the Country
Club. But it can not claim
them organized into a definite
sports group, with a definite
schedule each week for %
weeks. That's what makes
bowling big. 1t Is the big
gest thing in local sports his
tory. 1t has the pull of half
ton magnet-and its grip is
viselike. =.
In the preceding paragraph ]
have called them amateurs. That
is these people have no profession
al standing in the game-they don't
make their living at it. Bowl
ing, you know, is not hidebound
by pretty pink phrases that sc
technically define an amateur that
he can't even look sideways at a
dime without being ruled out OF
every amateur tournament in the
nation. Bowlers can and dc
compete for money prizes. And the
stigma that golf and tennis have
tried to keep from their amateurs
hasn't, surprisingly, tainted the
game of bowling at all. 1t is
highly honorable sport, clean as
they come and unlike golf and
tennis does not make monkeys OF
some of its players because they
have accepted prize money for theiI
skill in demonstration. :.
The American Bowling Con-
gress is very strict on some
things but it has not given its
game the unsavOry develop
ments that often accrue in
sports whose enthusiasts claim
are simon pure.
Best crack of the week was
Joe Kane's. Watching the
meteOric descent of the Home
Defense bowling team in the
Main Street League they have
won one game in 18), Joe quip-
ped: If that's a sample of the
Home Defense, I'm going to get
my shotgun in shape.
Minnesota has a tough time get
ting it's rightful place in the foot
ball sun. But they're coming
through now. The newsreels
and the national mags make Min
nesota prove everything, and the
heartening thing to Minnesotans is
that the team does just that.
Look this week prances out two

Coach Harold Rasmussen in his
second week as head coach in bas-
ketball bobbed up with little opin-
ing that is as sound as we've heard
in regard to the game of shoot the
ball and pray for the basket. 4.
Rass is a shot perfectionist on the
theory that if a team can shoot
ably it can get the confidence and
poise necessary to beat really good
teams. There is some sense to
that.
The Sauk Centre herald., 1941-11-20

There is also sense in his
statement this week that a
team has to show a third bet
ter in its practices than you
need for winning game-or
you haven't got the victory
you're after. His claim
along that line is that a new
team, in particular, and most
any team at the seasons out
set, is just flighty enough to
pull a few boners during the
course of the early part of the
season. In other words
there is certain normal loss
of poise that accrues quite
naturally in the new season.
His idea is to whip the
practice tussles up to an edge
where the boys are playing
really good ball without pres
sure. Once they have conf
dence in their shooting and
floor ability, this loss of pOise
is not nearly so noticeable. -.
And pOise is as important as a
lace in your shoe. Really good
ball players are unruffled, unhur.
ried, take time to survey the scene
but have that sense of knowing
when to act on split second tim.
ing. That all comes from con.
fidence in his own ability and In
that of his team and coach.
So we'd say Rass Is on the right
track. -.
Only place where national de-
fense has hampered education
and its attending athletics in
this town is in Junior College.
-. And here they took It on
the chin. 1t pared the male
enrolment to a scarce handful
an enrolment that in two
previous years had far over
shadowed the female conting-
ent. Now it's reversed. .
Reason is, one the draft, and
two the attractiveness of out
side jobs rather than continu-
ing with education. :.
So Ray Schwartz finds himself
in the peculiar situation he was in
two years ago with ]. G. basket
ball. Only two years ago it
was football. Then he had a
football squad of IL. Now he
has a basketball squad of six. . &.
Three of the boys have never done
much playing, but they have 10
game home to home series schedule
arranged with five schools. q.
And they might be okay. =.
They've got some big shoes
to fill. For that j. c. Buccan-
GERS club of a year ago prob
ably was the greatest basket
ball team this town has ever
seen. There are those who
will challenge that on certain
grounds, but by and large, 1t
stands.

United States from the road, but that is a foolish argument. When you buy a hat you pay five dol lars for it and you consider the investment good if you get your moneys worth. You don't bother to look into who is going to bene- fit from that five dollars. The man who sells you the hat can use 1t on a race track or to feed a pretty blonde. It's the same way with the highway. It is worth $20, GOO. .oo0 to the United States and should be built immed lately, without question of the bensfits to Canada.

Buckner Hears Highway Plan
MACDONALD CONFERS ON
 NEED OF ROAD TO STATES

Bringing a detailed map of the route for the proposed interna- tional highway which would con meet Alaska with the States, Don ald Mcdonald, father of the high way project, presented it to Brig. Gen. Simon B. Buckner, Jr., with the admonition that it is the only lifeline" for the territory in the event of war.
 MT. Mcdonald, in Alaska for the first time in two years, stop ped at Anchorage for a day and continued on to Fairbanks to visit his family. He expects to go Outside again soon, perhaps for a meeting of the International Highway Commission which may be called to convene in Ottawa or Washington in January.
 In conference with General Buckner, Mir. Mcdonald went over the map in great datail, showing the ease of building the proposed highway and the condi- tions which would make it us- able l2 months each year.
