WEDNESDAY NIGHT

The Journeys closest and hard
est fought games were on Wed
nesday night when Belpre eked
out 50-49 win over Bethel, Vim
cent edged Woodsfield 48-46, and
Caldwell was knocked out by
defending champion Matamoras
49-4l.
In the opening game on the
evenings card, the Caldwell
Redskins made a gallant effort
but couldn't succeed in upsetting
the favored Matamoras Bulldogs
as they bowed 49-41. Steady, de-
pendable Bill Christopher came
thru with Is points to pace the
Redskins, but it was the uncanny
shooting ability of Earl Petty
that almost single-handedly won
the game for Matamoras. Petty
came thru with II field goals
and five out of six free throws
for q points, more than half his
teams total.
Caldwell led during the first
quarter, and was ahead 1l-9
when the period ended, but the
Bulldogs caught up midway in
the second period and managed
to remain ahead the rest Of the
way although Caldwell trailed
within striking distance thruout
the game.
The big blow that greatly
hampered Caldwell's floor game
was the loss of the Walters
twins on fouls, Hugh going out
early in the second quarter and

FRIDAY NIGHT

In Friday nights semi-final
games, Matamoras doWned Bel
pre- by nine points 58-49 as the
big three of the Bulldogs hit
consistently. Earl Petty had l8,
John Carson II, and George
Dunn 10 for Matamoras who led
only 46-43 entering the last
quarter.
Summerfield's Golden Gophers
dropped a heart-breaker to Vim
cent in the other semi final
game 4l-38 after leading most of
the way by a slim margin. Last
year, Vincent nipped the Gophers
1929 in a first round game, while
in 1949 it was Belpre that
squeezed out a last second 40-39
win over Summerfield to rob
them of berth in the district
joust.
Loss of Ronald Barnett and
Myron Cutler on fouls and an
illness that sidelined Junior
Kuhn for most of the game con-
tributed greatly to Summerfield's
loss, although the Gophers
matched Vincent from the field.
The victors, however, made nine
free throws compared to six for
Summerfield.
Ronald Barnett with II points
and Bill Cutler with 10 were the
only Gophers able to hit with
any consistency, while Beanie"

A MUSICAL
u ARCHETEER

This year the band season will
start, as far as we know, on
August 10, 1851. This perform
ance will be for a football game
at Akron, and will be advertised
as the Battle of the Bands" The
two marching units participating
are, The Caldwell High School
Band, and the Massillon Tiger
Swing Band, both will known in
their type of entertainment. The
Caldwell Band will received two
hundred dollars and expenses.

If any of you attended the
basketball tournaments at Mari
eta last Monday which was the
first round, you probably noticed
the fine band that entertained
at the half and between games.
Much to my surprise, I found
that this band was directed by a
former Caldwell resident, a Mrs.
Richard Gibson. Mrs. Gibson is
an aunt to Charles Douglas who
plays trumpet in the Caldwell
band. Mrs. Gibson informed me
that this was a first year band,
new uniforms and new instru-
ments and goes by the name of
the Lawrence High School Band.
1t is forty piece unit with four
snappy majorettes and a high
stepping drum major. Their uni
forms are something on the order
of ours, but, of course, differ
ent color, purple trimmed in
gold. All band members wore
white shoes and the girls hair
was up under their hats; all this
was topped of with a beautiful
golden plume. This band has
developed very well, and |
sincerely wish all the luck in the
world to Mrs. Gibson and her
first year band.

were forced to remove their
jerseys with numbers on the

jerseys with numbers on the
front and back as called for in
the rule book. Anyone who has
played Belpre knows how con-
fuSing this is to officials, score
keepers, and most of all to play

Father Of War Victim, II,
Coming 10 See Congress
BY the Assoeiated Press

MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 20.-Ira Haw-
thorne, whose 17-year-old son was
killed in Korea after 13 weeks of
training, is going to Washington
to ask Congress for a law to pro-
tect young, unframed military
men.
Mr.. Hawthorne wants soldiers
to be at least 20 years old and
have at least one year of training
before going into combat. He said
he will leave by plane for the
Capital tomorrow night.
Mr.. Hawthorne has written to
President Truman, all members of
Congress, every Governor and
most leading news commentators.
He estimates he has written 1000
letters since his sons death.
He got replies to most of them,
he said, and a large majority
favored his proposal. Forty Gov
ernors promised him help, he
added.
Mr.. Hawthorne's son, Vernon,
enlisted on August 13, 1850. He
was killed in action eight days
after he landed in Korea and less
than five months after his enlist
ment.
1T takes good equipment to win
a war;" Mr.. Hawthorne said, "and
it takes good soldiers, too. Send
ing young, inadequately trained
boys into combat is a needless
sacrifice"

Wet Namese Premier
To ReshuffIe Cabinet
As Red Power Gains
BY the Associated Press

SAIGON. Indo- China, Jan. 90
Chief of State Bao Dai today or
dered Premier Tran Van HUI tc
reshuff1e his cabinet in an attempt
to rally greater popular support in
the face of the mounting military
power of Communicated Nation
alists.
The premier was directed to dis
solve the cabinet which took office
last April and form a new one
more broadly representative of
anti-Communist elements.
His task was not easy, for the
majority of Wet Namese have
been lured by the nationalistic de-
mands for full independence from
the French as voiced by Moscow
educated Ho Chi Mini, leader of
the Wet Mini rebellion. Many OBJ
servers believed such influential
groups as the Northern Catholics
will hold aloof from ex-Emperor
Bao Dai's French-sponsored Wet
Nam republic until the French
definitely have gained the upper
hand in the military field.
The premier may be able to
form slightly broader govern
ment, however, because of nego-
tiations which resulted in the
technical realization of agree
ments with the French and made
Wet Nam semi-independent.
Working to his advantage, too
was the French success this week
IN turning back the Wet Minis
most ambitious offensive north OF
Hanoi, the northern capital.
The Wet Mimi is estimated to
have used $4,000 to 10000 we'll
equipped troops in the offensive
But the main thrust, about 80
miles northwest of Hanoi, was
turned back.
Gen. Jean de Lattre de Tassigny
French commander, warned YES
terday that there was a strong
possibility new offensive will be
launched before February 6, the
Wet Namese and Chinese New
Year.

,Lustron Loan Losses Laid
To White House by Senator
BY the Associated Press

Senator Robertson, Democrat
of Virginia said yesterday he be-
lieves the threatened big losses on
Government loans to the Lustron
Corp are more the fault of the
White House than the Recon-
struction Finance Corp, which
loaned the money.
Lustron is in bankruptcy after
defaulting on all but 81 million
of $37.5 million it borrowed from
the RFC to launch an experiment
in mass production of prefabri-
Gated housing.
The Senator referred to testi-
mony before a Senate banking
subcommittee investigating the
RFC that the agency refused to
make the loan until John r. Steel

strongly.
