NUR congratulations to the
sports fans and school Off
cials of Bowling Green. They're
the fairest sports and friendliest
people we've encountered in many
a grid game. We didn't hear a
single boo throughout the Bee
Gee-Pee Gee game, and that,
Brethren, is a record. When Har-
Ian Branum and Nook Masing
were injured and left thc game,
Bowling Green fans applauded
the players as loudly as Port Clin-
ton fans. 1t was indeed a pleas
ure to cover" a game at Bowl
ing Green and we hope the Red
skin schedule embraces Bowling
Green for many years to come.

THERE was no drowning at
Lakeside Saturday night, de-
spite stories to the contrary in
metropolitan dailies. A Cleveland
man was drown when he struck
his head on pilings at the Lake
side Yacht Club, but that club is
in Cleveland and not in Ottawa
county. Noticing the name Lake
side, some editors charged the
death to this county which has
had far too many drownings and
accidental deaths already this
year.
