Eileen Overturf came bounding
into school Monday morning full
of news about her fun-filled trip
to All Club Congress. From
Eileens enthusiastic description,

more than worthwhile experience!

the positively ideal football
weather last Friday night and
about the positively sensational
Urbana game! Our hats are, off
to every single member of the
squad for such terrific show of
team spirit. Congratulations, fell
las, on well-earned victory!
Attention all students:
Let's make an ah-out effort

we're behind them. How bout it,

THE EXTENDED NECK
Those of us who have been
privileged to sit in recent ses-
sions of the UN Security Council
at Lake Success will now have a
clearer conception of the Soviet
obstructionist philosophy our Gov
ernment officials have been oblig-
ed to combat thruout the postwar
period.
To observe Malik presiding in
sullen Slavic silence as one dele
gate after another heaps maledic-
tions and indictments upon the
Soviet; finally to listen to the
repetitious charges of the Krem-
Inns representative, concluding
with the inevitable, Those are
the facts!"-is to realize the COM
plete futility of any present eff
fort to bring the conflicting forces
to a working agreement.
All delegates now are reconciled
to the conclusion that a stale
mate will continue for the period

Squirrel Season
To End Saturday

The 1850 squirrel hunting sea-

Reports coming to the Wild
life Division the past week vary
as to the success enjoyed by
hunters throughout the state.
Hunters in the southern and
northwestern counties of the state,
repeatedly enjoyed fine shooting,

SPORTS
LONDON RAIDERS BLANK
uRBANA in THIRD WIN

The Raiders flattened the
Urbana Hiilclimbers 1910 on their
own gridiron Friday night.
The two rather small,
fast teams used the same tactics
only London passed more and
better and ran farther and faster.
Hill opened this exciting, if one
sided, ball game by kicking off
TO LeBeau who picked it up on
his 10 and carried it to the 35.
Then Duffey bucked off tackle
for two, bringing it to the 81.
LeBeau faded and threw to Bope-
ley on the Urbana 38, quick II
yard gain. Dave Wilson, making
his first appearance this year be-
cause of a hand broken the first
week of practice, swept around
right end for nine putting the pig
skin on the Hillclimber %. Duff
fey charged up the middle for
eight ard a first down. Wilson
skirted right end again, this time
pushing ahead five yards. Here
ON the enemy 16, the Raiders
seemed to be against a stone wall
as two bucks and penalty threw
them back to the l6, third and
ten. But LeBeau drilled pass to
Bopeley who gathered it in on
the five and went over for six
points! Duffey rammed through
on wedge play for the seventh
point.
Hunter kicked to Davis who
returned it from his 20 to the "a.
After 3 desperate drivers Urbana
was unable to make first down
and Hill kicked out of bounds
on Londons 81.
Wilson and Duffey collaborated
for Is yards. but an unlucky
hand-off was fumbled and the
Hillclimbers recovered. Van Me-
ter's pass to Brit was long; Hill
drove off tackle for four making
it third ard six on the Raider Al.
Van Meters aerial was lntecept-
ed by LeBeau who ran it to his
own "A
Then dashing Dave Wilson with
the help of some extra good block
ing swung wide around right end
for sixteen yards, bringing the ball
to the Urbana 90. A tricky play
LeBeau-M Miller Hunter didn't quite
click and the Raiders were still
on their 40 Wilson ran right end
again but the Hillclimbers were
waiting for him and he netted
only three yards. LeBeau's pass
to Bopeley was no good and the
Raiders had to kick.
Hunters kick as brought out
to the 20, there Winters threw an
incomplete pass to Eggleston.
Davis hurled to Stokes who
caught it, fumbled and Roude-
bush recovered.
This break heartened the Lon
don boys and once more they
started their touchdown machine
rolling. Duffey plowed through
the middle for seven yards, Mil
Ter charged through tackle for

Energy Consumed
Determines Food
For Hot Weather

How much energy you use -
rather than the hot weather -
determines whether you need
more or less food in summer.
Alma GarVin, extension nu-
tritionist at Ohio State Univer-
sity, says a person may need
less food during warm summer
weather, but only if he slows
down, or is less active. Summer
time often brings increased ac-
tivity for many who go on for
sports, gardening and other out
door work. For these, more, in
stead of fewer calories may be
required
Balanced ~ eals, including
milk, fruit and green vegetables
each day, are just as important in
hot weather as an other time of
year. Fruits and vegetables are
especially appealing in hot wealth
er.
Gold drinks such as iced
tea and coffee, and fruit beVe-
RACES are all to the good in
summer" Miss Garvin adds, as
long as they don't replace milk
in the diet. Actually, summer Of
fers chance to increase the
milk consumption of children
who may not get as much milk
as they should at other times of
the year"

PETIONVIILE, Haiti. Oct. 49,
The modern touch has invaded
the ancient temples of voodoo.
Rhythmic dances and the more
complicated mystic rites usually
take place in courtyard temples
of this and other outlying areas
Of Port-au-Prince. Haiti's capital.
The natives gather to dance or
engage in religious ritual under
the spell of drums handled by ex-
pert hands.
BY following the drums" to
their sources. a person often can
come across the enactment of be-
liefs and practices which claim to
deal with the spiritual forces of
the universe and attempt to keep
the individual in harmonious rela-
tionship with them.
The fact that voodoo is in tune
with the times was noted recently
Evening star., 1950-10-19

the priest paid homage to VOC
doo's water god. gate god, road
god. or any other god in mytho-
logy.
The modern touch was there
again. On the altar was a bottle
of soda pop. one of champagne,
packaged food, lately styled silver
ware. And next to the altar was
modernistic two-toned tiled bath.
The idea is that, If the gods
want drink or something to eat,
or perhaps a bath, 1t will be right
there.
Evening star., 1950-10-19

by this reporter and a few other
persons who were searching for
voodoo performance.
Led by Pierre Chauvet, who
owns tourist agency in Port-au-
Prince, the party secured the city
in vain. Drums that were heard
and followed always ended up at
a "bombash," a dance party held

performance, probably the only

ended. But given a silver coin, he
allowed us to enter the darkened
temple.
