The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1948-10-28

BIufFton college gridders still are
laughing over the sad tale OF several
Manchester college gridders, who
were hashing over the fine points of
the game a week ago, after the
Beavers had beaten the visitors,
6 to 0, in a downpour at harmon
field. . . Most of the evening, the
Manchester team had been chasing
Blutfton's big Hugh Frost from one
side of the field to the other, in an
attempt to halt his ground gaming
sallies. . Frost, incidentally, was the
one who scored the six points which
gave Bluffton it's victory, You
know, one Manchester gridder said,
"last week at Albion (Nich.) we also
had a heck of a time with fellow
named Frost, who was just as slip
perry to catch.". They were sur
prised at Hugh's laughter until he
explained that the Frost at Albion
was his younger brother, playing his
first year of ball for the Albion
team.
Incidentally, the Beavers should be
earning their spurs as "mudders"
pretty soon. The Manchester game
two weeks ago was played in a down
pour, then last Thursday night
against Ohio Northern, the Beavers
went thru two halves of play marred
by steady drizzle Of rain.
Altho there are no soft touches on
the rigorous Western Buckeye league
grid schedule set up for Blutfton High
School, the Pirates still are striving
to break into the win column
-. Last week, the locals surprised
st. Marys with a sterling perform
ance, and instead of the Roughriders
winning by the rout they had eX-
pected, they were lucky to squeeze
thru with Ii to victory.
Van Vert, hoping to catch Kenton
in the race for league honors, topped

So far the Cougars only setback
came at the hands of kenton. E. In

Then the mother went back into

AS the children arrived, Mrs.

little things that had never been
cherished because they were too new.
On top Of the ash heap was a
tall burnt stick-the remains Of the
once green Christmas tree.
Damage to the little white bunga-

Barbara and Dorothy were taken

which ragged in . second-hoor apart
ment Christmas Eve.
Another child, Susan, IL, is in

room. John was dead on arrival at
the hospital and Andrew, jr., died
several hours later.
