The game was very we'll at
tended, the weather was nice and
the temperature was not too cold,
which all added up to very
pleasant evening The field itself
is in better shape this year than
ever before. It's actually green
in spots. Thanks to Mr.. Wood
doing a good job doctering it
along during the summer. If you
attended the game perhaps you
noticed a few changes in the
immediate vicinity of the field,
one being a stone retaining wall
at the rear of the gym made from
huge blocks of limestone from
the old grade school building.
The other change is additional
bleacherS constructed directly
below and in front of the band
stand for the use of a cheering
section. Speaking of the cheering
sections. That is something that
has been slowly and painstGken-
ly developed in the last few
years, primarily, of course, to
support the team. In past years
the students of c. H. S. who at
tended the games were likely to
be any place in that end of town,
not by any matter of means in
one group. You know yourself
that this does not provide for a
good cheering section. What
cheering that has been done in
the past with any volume at all
was by the band, so now by max
ing a student section devoted en-
tirely to those wanting to back
the team, we believe that this
centralized group will help
promote school spirit.

N N USINGS OF
A MUSICAL
ARCHETEER
Yves Marshall

Before the game Friday night,
there seemed to be uncertain
feeling among the Caldwell
crowd as to the outcome of the
game between Caldwell and
Byesville. But the minute the
Caldwell team snapped to the
call of the quarterback and ran
the first few plays it was ap-
parent that there would be vic
tory for CHS. that evening.
1t appears that Caldwell has
a light determined backfield
speaking of the L. and R. half
backs and a very good defensive
line. However, it must be taken
into consideration that Byesville
was not by far as tough as some
of the teams that Caldwell will
meet in the M.V.L. league.

NEW LEX PANTHERS

NEW LEX PANTHERS will
come to town this Friday
night to give the Redskins their
first taste of Muskingum VAL
ley league competition. Game
time is 7:30. Coach Saunders
boys came out of the Byesville
fray without serious injury and
will now face a seasoned team
with 10 lettermen on the 40-man
squad. Coach John Neff lost five
men from the team that battled
Caldwell last year, but still has
a backfield that includes Bill
Wilmington, Chuck Stemen,
Roger Bowers and Junior Ben
nett, all seniors. The Panthers
lost their entire right side of
the line by graduation along
with their left guard and quar-
terback. Of the 10 lettermen this
year, half of them are backs. In
their opening game against Nc
Connelsville, the Panthers play
ed the Big Reds to a standstill
on the ground throughout the.
first half, only to fall victims to
a 21-0 aerial assault

THE CALDWELL BAND, play

THE CALDWELL BAND, play
ing before the hometown
crowd for the first time this
season, put on a remarkable
halftime show last Friday night.
Proof that the musical magic of
Marvin Woods Marcheteers is
spreading is evidenced by this
piece from the GAINESVILLE paper:
Echoes of the third annual
Football Olympia are still being
heard but the topic most under
discussion is the Caldwell high
school band
Everyone present couldn't say
enough nice things about the
perfectly trained musicians from
Noble county. Caldwell has be-
come used to perfect perform
ances from it's band but lots of
folks were amazed by the preci-
sion marching of Director Marvin
Woods charges.
We have seen lots of high
school bands but never one any
better. The boys and girls snap
in and out of formations with
no drum major or majorettes so
fast that spectators gasp. AS one
fan remarked they are better
than most of the college and
professional bands we have
SEEN" Director Wood and his
band deserve lots of credit for
their fine work"

TEN YEARS AGO The Re

TEN YEARS AGO The Red
skins bowed to New Lex TO by
virtue of a first minute touch
down pass from Tom Wolfe to
Jim Adrian. The extra point was
made on a plunge by Rod King.
The remainder of the game was
scoreless but hard fought, with
Caldwell holding for downs on
their own two-yard line late in
the game. The Redskins advanc-
ed to New Lexis IL on a brilliant
run by jun Clark but here the
Caldwell grid machine begged
down as Ed Mazgay's fourth
down pass was no good.

By Associated Press

Troops of seven U. s. divisions and seven Allied Nations drove hard today in their new general assault along 70-mile front, inflicting a reported ll,000 Chinese Communist and North Korean casualties.
 The surprise offensive, in which U. s. 25th Division crossed the Han River with tanks in three places, caught the Reds flatfooted. A fake crossing attempt by South Koreans near Seoul diverted the enemy att tention while the main bridgeheads were being effected.
 South Koran troops on the eastern end of the line near Amidong re- covered some of the ground they lost yesterday to some 13.000 coun- terattacking North Koreans.
 Stunned by the LIN offensive. accompanied by roaring artillery barrages and close fighter bomber support all along the line. the ene- my attempted no counteroffensive during the night. But there were evidences they still were building up for big spring assault.

SENATOR CHAPMAN INJURED FATALLY
 IN AUTO ACCIDENT

WASHINGTON, March 8.-H-- Senator Virgil Chapman, 55-year- old veteran member of Congress from Kentucky, was injured fatally early today in collision of his automobile and trailer truck. He was a Democrat.
 Chapman died about seven hours after the accident, which occurred on Connecticut Avenue in the northwest section of the city.
 Although Chapman was serving his first term as a senator, he had been a member of the house for 22 years before he moved up to the senate in l948. He succeeded Vice President Barkley when Bark ley was elected vice president.
 In the house he was considered an expert on tobacco and other farm subjects. He carried that in terest in farming into his senate activities.
 He was member of the Senate Armed Service and Public Works Committees.
 His death cuts the Democratic majority in the senate to one, leav- ing a 48-47 margin.
 Gov. Lawrence w. Wetherby of Kentucky is Democrat and thus presumably will designate another Democrat to succeed Chapman until an election is held.
 The senate arranged to recess for the day shortly after Chapman's death was announced.

Surprise Ofensive Catches Reds Flatfootel
SENATOR'S VOTE FOR REPEAL OF
 MEDICAL EXAMS

Repeal of the law requiring yearly medical examinations for barbers cosmetologists and food and drink handlers was voted by the Terri torial Senate today.
 The vote was Il to 5 in favor of the recommendation of the Board of Health and Dr. c. Earl Albrecht, health commissioner.
 Dr. Albrecht said the law is inn practicable; there are ample safe guards against communicable dis eases in other statutes; the "clean bill of health" cards give a false sense of security to the public be- cause person could pick up dis ease immediately after his blood test and still carry his card the rest of the year.
 The Senate also:
 Passed for the second time, be- cause of a previous legal error, the Engebreth bill to exempt Federal excess profits taxes from the com putation on which the 10 per cent Territorial income tax is figured;

Percy Ipalook (R-Kotzebue) cast the lone vote against it after quoting the scriptures on the trans gressions of mankind. Ipalook cited the arguments fol the bill as one that would eliminate later embarrassment for child, but declared
 T am afraid this would increase the social problem. There is a law of nature that puts the burden on the mother. I believe in the IL Co,,,y pdpnat1tc n
 Sen. Frank Barr replied that the bills purpose is ito remove the man. made stigma from the child.' Sen. Dan Lhamon suggested that it was problem that had been with society for thousands of years anc he couldn't agree that the bill would bring any increase in the delinquent cy rate.
 The number of bills in the Senate rose to 102 today when the rules were suspended to allow Sen. JOG Coble to introduce one, after the 45th day deadline. It would provide $158 reimbursement for the U. 5 I Commissioner at Fairbanks. He got the Senate's consent te

Pee, Yugoslayia.-For the most of one day have driven along what is sometimes called "The Little Iron Curtain" the border where Yugoslavia and Albania meet, for Yugoslavfa enjoys the un- enviable distinction of being squeezed between two sections of the Iron Curtain with Bulgaria and Hungary on one side and AL bania on the other.
 How tiny, primitive Albania chiefly Mohammedan country happened to fall for Russian Con- munism has always been mystery to me. I lived on the Albanian border for two years after the first World War, once crossed it on horseback, and it's people at that time were rugged individualists who hated all governments, including their own, with the passion of Pennsylvania's high-tariff Jo 2 Grundy.s Perhaps the explanation is that Albania is a nation of ex-
