FRIDAY NIGHT
Squad Shows Promise In
Scrimmage Wednesday
With St. Joseph's

Port Clinton's 1948 version of
polio handicapped football team
will make it's debut at Gibsonburg
this Friday night at 500 o'clock
in game which promises to re-
store local football enthusiasm to
its usual high pitch.
Making the best of a delayed
start, Coach Norm Willbond's Red
skins have shown fine spirit since
practices were resumed last Thurs
day and give promise that they
are going to give good account
of themselves during the remain
der of this short season. The Por-
ters held light scrimmage with
Fremont st. Joseph, Wednesday
evening, and looked good enough
to be pleasing to their own coach.
Willbond said yesterday that
his probable starting lineup for
the Gibsonburg game will be Bill
Belshaw at left half, Steve Rosiar
at full, Andy Migala at right
half, Dave Krupp at quarterback,
Scott Franck at left end, Dale
Taylor at left tackle, Dick Bash
ore at left guard, Emery Macko
at center, Ralph Branum at right
guard, Bill Fritz at right tackle
and Paul Lukac at right end.
Others who may see action are
Dick Blaskis, full; Art Barfield,
right half; Kenny LimestahI, left
half; Bill Riddle, quarterback; Ron
Jensen, left tackle; Jim McGee,
left guard; Chuck Quisno, center
or right guard; Paul Molnar, right
tackle; Eugene Ohm and Harold
Masing, right ends; and Dick Jen-
sen, left end.
Lost Two Games
The Gibsonburg Golden Bears
coached by Robert Krotzer and
Steve Madras have lost their first
two games, being edged by Whit
mer TO and bowling to Clay, 900
Reports from that camp indicate
that Lyle Smith, regular fullback
Sam Gruner, regular halfback and
two second string men will prob
ably be out of the lineup for the
Port Clinton game.
The Gibsonburg probable start,
ing lineup was announced as fol
lows: Paul Herman, end; Gordon
Saam, tackle; Hobart Wagers
guard; Bill Kirsch, center; A
Wagner, guard; Jim Hickman
tackle; Daryl Gerwin, end; Bot
Herman, quarter; Jim Fought anc
Glen Davis, halls; and Jim Rush
er, fullback.
Port Clinton and Gibsonburg arr
all tied up on 1870 scores fo,
the past two seasons, Gibsonburt
winning by that score in 1916, anC
the Porters winning by the identi
cal score last year.

At a meeting of the Cat-tail
committee working under Mayor
Carl Becker, at the city hall Mon
day night, additional plans were
made for a gala celebration to be
held Saturday, Oct. 16, rather
than on Oct. l as previously an
nounced.
The change of dates was decid-
ed upon to avoid conflict with the

Put-in-Bay on Oct. 8, and the

Sion in Cleveland.

Fourth, west on Fourth to Madi-
son, and north on Madison to the
dock area where the nights festiv-
tiles will be held. Local and visit
ing bands, numerous floats, and q
cat-tail torch light section will
headline the parade. There is said
to be a possibility that Life
magazine will have a photograph
er here to "shoot" the parade and
snight's events.

is being asked to select "Cat,
tail Queen" for the event, by vote
of the students. Paul Schmitt is

New Floods born Upper Columbia River Yesterday

PORTLAND, -R)-The Colum- bia River system spawned a new flood in its headwaters yesterday Hundreds of miles downstream, winds whipping in from the Pa cific flicked the crest of the old one over the tops of weakened dikes.
 Warning of the new flood came like body punch into tired resi- dents of Oregon, Washington, Ida ho, Montana and British Colum- bia who have been battling two weeks against the rivers worst rampage.
 From the Canadian Rockies down the Columbia's tortuous 1,OOO-mile course to the sea, flood battered cities and farm communi- ties rallied to face the second round-all except those who have not yet won the first round.
 The original crest was causing the most trouble in the heavily barricaded area around Clatskanie on the Oregon shore and Skam- okaWa across the river in Wash ington. It was here-on the last 40 miles of it's run into the Pa cific-that wind-lashed waters rolled over the dikes when the incoming tide was the highest.
 The turnover was only 1 inch deep at it's wors. spot on the Ore gon side-and it Tapped over only when the winds came. Army En- gineers said the water was run ming three-tenthS of a foot higher than Wednesday when the criti- cal stage arrived ip this area.
 The dikes still held. Thousands of regular army troops, national guardsmen and civilian volunteers worked steadily to keep building up the earthworks, stop the leaks and the crumbling.

New Threats To NOrthwest's Flood. Damaged Areas
Continued from Page One)

The fresh flood crest was mount ing in the Columbia, far up in the mountains where the blazing sun too quickly changed the deep snowpack into run-off water. The Snake River, main Columbia trib- utary, also was rising.
 The collapse of Barnston and Hatzic dikes last night flooded more fertile farmlands, adding to the tremendous but yet untotaled millions of dollars damage in the Northwest region.
 Before the new rampages of the Fraser, estimates from qualified

 A wall of water 20 feet high roared into Barnston. The saul cer-like island, almost three miles long and one and one-half wide, is 20 miles east of Vancouver, B. c.

Un-American Activities Committee.
The House passed a resolution
last week directing the Secretary of
Commerce to surrender an FBI
letter relating to DR.. Condon's
loyalty.
Previously, an Un-American Ac-
tivities Subcommittee had called
DR.. Condor, head of the Bureau of
Standards, one of the weakest links
in atomic security. 1t said he had
associated with suspected Soviet
spies. In support of the latter
charge, it quoted from part of the
FBI letter.
But it said it needed the entire
letter to make full inquiry.
DR.. Condor not only denied the

Shortly after the House directed
the Commerce Department to turn
over the letter, President Truman
indicated to a news conference that
the letter would not be Forthcoming.
