If the committee took every

skyrocket. Besides, it costs the
government good deal of money
for the committee to do prepara-

bills have been channeled to the

The Columbia Valley admins

the first leg of a circuitous route
which will eventually bring it
back before the House Public
Works committee for hearings.
Cong. Will Wilmington, chair
man Of the committee, wrote
Con. Hugh Mitchell O-Seatrle),
one of the bills sponsors, several
days ago saying that the bill had
been referred to interested gov
eminent bureaus and agencies for
their appraisal. *
That, however, is only part OF
the story. .-..@
Wilmington is a committee
chairman Of the "old" school. He
IS noted on Capitol Hill for runn-
ing his committee with tight
rein and for his further inclina-
ton to ignore the vast majority
of the bills submitted TO the House
Public Works committee.
One Of the unwritten rules Of
the committee, in fact, is to pay
no attention to any bill submitted
unless It Is backed up by a letter
or call from the Congressman
who entered it requesting that
action be taken on the bill.
Theory behind the rule is this:

One observer who is familiar

The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1949-03-09
BY Danny Loblaw

Highlighted by some last minute
heroics by Fritz Rdenour, who scor-
ed twice in the closing seconds of a
hectic battle at Woodstock in the
final game, Fred Stanton's ZeeBees
gained a measure of revenge for two
previous defeats and at the same
time clinched second place in the
final standings of the North Sub
urban conference basketball race with
thrilling 1880 victory over Dixie
O'Hara's Blue Streaks.
1t was a ding dong battle all the
way with the lead changing hands
constantly throughout and neither
team at any time held stable mar
gin. Woodstock was on top at the
quarter, 1913 and Zion-Benton held
sway at the intermission, 17-15. The
Streaks again moved out front in
the third period and went into the
final spasm with 1922 edge. A pair
of buckets by Captain Tim Thomas,
followed by a goal and free throw by
Ridenour put the Stantonmen in
command, 1926 late in the game, but
two goals by Bob Overly gave Dixie
O'Hara's plucky little crew a 1929
edge with less than minute to go,
and thus set the stage for BIG Fritz's
closing performance.
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1949-03-09

ished in front with a total of 1863
points. Top pointsman for the van
pushed in this battle was Bob Overly
with II points scored on eight ring
ers and one free throw.
Vern Gowe's Warren Blue Devils
captured fourth place in the confer
ence standings with hard earned
1884 victory over Gus Steinhebels
Wildcats at Libertyville. It was the
sixth verdict in IL league games for
the Gowemen and enabled them to
avenge an earlier 44-38 defeat suf-
fered at Warren.
Tigers Top Offense, Defense
Checking over the records of the
initial North Suburban conference
race, which ended recently, it is dis
covered that the Crystal Lake Tigers
not only won the title on the strength
Of their scoring ability, but also on
their ability to keep the opposition
from getting any potential offensive
in motion.
The Tigers scored a total of $50
points, which will stand as the sea-
son scoring record for at least one
year and did so mainly on their ability
to hit from the field, where they re-
gistered 225 field goals. They added
to this total with 10 free throws,
but this mark was surpassed by three
other clubs, Zion-Benton, Woodstock,
and Libertyville.
On the other hand the Tigers limit
ed the combined opposition to 1903
field goals, an average of SO, while
the combined opposition was able to
pick up 1O2 points from the free
throw line.
The top free throw team in the loop
was our own Zion-Benton ZeeBees,
who converted a total of 124 points
in ZIG attempts from the free throw
line for an average of STA. Wood
stock finished a strong second with
119 conversions in 208 attempts, while
Libertyville converted in ia in 224
attempts.
Zion-Benton was found guilty Of
the most personal fouls-219 and
consequently offered the combined
opposition a total of 255 free throws,
but fortunately for them the opposi-
ton missed 139 efforts in 255 at
tempts.
Centers Lead Point Race
Cnecklng Cne 1nQlVlOual scoring De-
low it will be discovered the five
highest individual scorers all per-
formed as pivotmen for their respec-
tive teams. The highest scoring guard
in the loop was Bill Gossell of Lib
ertyville with SO points, while the
highest scoring forward was George
Hitzman of Grayslake, who compel
ed in only eight games, and still
finished seventh with a total of "a
points.
An Explanation
The statistics have been arranged
so as to accentuate the offensive and
defensive play of the rival teams.

Although Fritz assured himself of
the hero laurels of the evening with
his belated endeavors, he didn't con-
fine his activity to the final quarter
as may be attested to his 17-point
total for the evening. AS result
of his potent endeavors Ridenour
boosted his campaign mark to 155
tallies and thus grabbed runner-up
laurels in the conference scoring race.

SPAIN SHOOTS FOUR BEARS: JESSE LEE HOME GETS ONE

Bernie Spain got full season of bear hunting in a few minutes time out at Mile 58 on the highway Sunday afternoon when he shot a mother black bear and three cubs. Spain was hunting in the area when employees of the high way project told him of the bears near the camp. While a number of men at the camp had the itch to shoot bear themselves, none of them were eligible for resident hunting licenses.
 The mother bear was given to the Jesse Lee Home and Spain kept the three young ones for him. self and friends. He reported that another hunter had shot a black bear found attacking a moose calf.

sisters and brother. The parents
are about five inches in length, the
children gradually smaller, and
nave real hair which is braided in a
tiny exquisite roll around the
Chinese ladies heads. The father
and children have small braids
hanging down their backs. These
dolls are hand made. A friend in

Immediately bought them. The
dolls are cleverly and intricately

These dolls came with an exquisite
