Last Saturday with several COM

help much, but with considerable
leg work we did manage to scare
up one covey-and found the birds
fairly well punched after they lit.
We didn't hurt the quail popula-
ton much.
We spent only the morning
hours in this pleasant task and
then went to the club house and

Lakeside Loses
Close Decision

Lakeside's Stonecrushers lost a
close decision to the visiting Hur-
on Tigers, SO to 81, Saturday eve
ming. Lakeside led 80 to % at
the intermission but permitted
Huron to pull ahead in the third
period.
Miller had "a points for indi-
vidual honors while Craig's 19
topped the Huron players.
Lakeside was handicapped due
to the absence of big Jack Beadle,
who was benched due to the doc
tors orders because of an injured
back. His brother, Don, took
Jacks place at center but is a
much shorter boy. Beadle had
played against Fremont st. Jo-
seph Friday night but was ailing
at that time, and the doctor re-
fused to permit him to play Sat
urday.

RECORDS FALL
AS Wade SQUAD
HITS new HIGH
Dick SelgO Bowls 300 Game
AS Klares Misses With
Big 297

Record-smashing was in vogue
at Clinton Recreation alleys Sun
day evening when the WADC keg-
lers from Akron set two new ac-
tual pin records for the city.
Bowling in special match
against Fremont's Howard links
the WADC radio stars hit 1907
in their last game and totaled
1904 in their series. Both marks
are all-time tops for this city,
and probably for Ohio.
WADC's 1904 series total also
ranks as the third highest total
ever bowled in the United States.
John Klares set a torrid pace
for the visitors. Only stubborn
head pin kept him from per-
feet score in the last game. He
ended with a brilliant 297 and a
series total of TIA.
Other WADC bcwlers scored as
follows: AL Novak, 666; Ray Can't
Clio, 658; John King, 633, and
Bill Flynn, 633. Eleven of their
Is games were over the 200 mark.
Herb Miesle's Csc was best for
the Howard links. He had games
of 173, 267 and 246. Walt John
son bowled GOT, including games
of 234 and ZIG while Don Brede-
hoft had 568, Paul Scheid, 537,
and Jim Chapman, 528.
Selgo Hits 800
Dick Selgo, Baldwin Wallace
basketball star, became the sec
ond Port Clinton bowler to roll
a perfect 800 game when he turn
ed in the bowlers' dream feat on
the Clinton alleys Friday night.
While bowling with his father,
Hark Selgo, and several others.
Dick had II straight strikes be-
fore he missed. He opened with
247 and ended that game with
four strikes. His next IL strikes
constituted the perfect game.
Selgo had another strike to open
his third game before he missed.
Last year Joe Bodnar became
the first Port Clinton bowler to
hit 800.

KOMEDY KINGS COMING TUESDAY
TO MEET NU-FORMS AT SCHOOL

One of the worlds famous bas-
ketball teams, the celebrated New
York Komedy Kings, will come to
Port Clinton next Tuesday even
ing, February 21, to meet the Nu-
Form Batteries in an exhibition
tilt in the high school gym.
Once again the Jad Brothers are
sponsoring the cage card, which
promises to attract a capacity
crowd of sports fans to watch
the famous Negro comedians and
ball sharks.
Spearheade1 by their ace come
dian, Tiny Watkins, the Komedy
Kings present a show that is re-
ally spectacular. Watkins, pos
sessed of an amazing pair of
hands, handles the ball as if it
were a pea. He palms ball in each
hand, and spins the ball on his
finger tips, switching from one
finger to another. He is one of
the best ball handlers in the game.
Captain Billy Copeland, Leon
"Stretch" Jones and Oscar
Flash" Griffith supply the thrills
when it comes to playing major
league basketball. All of this trio
are deadly long shots and clever
all-around performers.
Copeland was a three-time Ne
gro Intercollegiate All-American
at South Carolina State College;
Jones was chosen as the outstand-
ing athlete at Meharry Medical
College, Nashville, Tenn, and
Griffith was chosen for the ALL
U. S. Army team while he was
at Fort Bragg. He was the only
Negro so honored.
Del Taylor, the hot shot from
the Los Angeles Bulldogs, Mel
Hale, the speed merchant of the
Kings and a former teammate of
Copeland at South Carolina, and
FRANKIE Clemons, an All Madison
Square Garden selection from To-
ledo University, will round out
the roster of the Kings.
During this, their sixth year
on the hardwood, the Komedy
Kings have won fifty of fifty-two
games played. Included are
victories over the All-American
Cleveland Browns, the Detroit
Gems, the Fort Wayne General
Electrics and the Canton Cushites.
They have lost two one-point ver-
diets to the Toledo Jeeps.
One never knows what to expect
when the Komedy Kings are on
the floor as they might play foot
ball, baseball, ring around-the-
Posey or any other game while
on the court.
Griffith is recognized as one of
the games greatest trick drib-
blers, and his excellence is GER
tain to thrill cage players anI
fans alike.
In the preliminary tilt, the
Lakeside Merchants will play the
Kelly Dunn Motors of this CITY.

their last opportunity to see the
1949-50 Redskin edition perform
on its home floor this Friday night
when Coach Norm Willbond's Gag
ers play host to Coach John Err
wins Rockets from Oak Harbor.
After tonight's game, the Red
skins have only one more tilt on
their regular schedule. They travel
to Willard Friday night, Feb. "a,
to meet Coach "Jonesy" Ihnat's
Railroaders in the season finale.
Tonight's game no doubt will
evolve into one of those tradi
tional feud battles between the
Rockets and Redskins. The Wis
itors, naturally, will be out to
avenge that 5S to 35 defeat hand
ed them by the Redskins in the
season opener last December 2.
Willbond's players will be out to
protect their excellent record,
which is now II victories and
three defeats. If Lady Luck had
been kinder, the Redskins would
not have suffered a two-point de-
feat by Norwalk or a one-point
defeat by Toledo Woodward. The
smiling lady couldn't aid in that
48 to 30 defeat by Sandusky,
however, as the Redskins were so
cold that nigh nothing could help.
Reserves Win
Coach "Doc" Wenze's Redskin
Reserves set the pace for the var
sity Friday night when they over
whelmed the Gibsonburg Reserves,
65 to 35, in the preliminary. Wood
and Wightman tied for top hon
ors by meshing 10 points each
while Tom Krotzer, of Gibsonburg,
took individual honors with II.
The varsity game was a weird
exhibition with little to cheer
either coach or the fans. Despite
their double figure scoring, Bill
Fritz, Harold Masing and Bill
Belshaw were far off their usual
excellent form.
Fritz connected on eight free
throws but missed six others for
81 per cent. Masing hit two of
three for 66 per cent and Belshaw
made one in three for 33 per cent.
Shooting from the field was so
peculiar that it appeared as if
some one had put a "whammy" on
the Redskin baskets. Often the
ball would roll around the inside
of the circle and then hop out.
At other times, the Redskins even
missed the blackboard.
Port Clinton made "a buckets
on 95 attempts for a miserable
20 per cent while Gibsonburg's
Golden Bears did slightly better,
making Is of 40 attempts for 30
per cent.
Most accurate player on the
floor was Dorsey Carr, who made
both of his field goal attempts af
ter entering the game late in the
last quarter. Carr's long shot in
the last few second gave the Red
skin partisans one of their few
thrills Of the night.
Harold "Nook" Masing was hot
during the first period when he
connected for four goals but he
cooled off and failed to score in
the third period. Bill Belshaw
