Redskins Move Up
TO EIGHTH In State

Caldwell Redskins, working on
a seven game winning streak,
climbed to eighth place in class
B football circles following their
40-14 win over Glouster last
week. While two previous Cald-

first time a RedSkin team has
posted seven in a row, according
to available records.
GAINESVILLE Rosecrans with six
wins and no losses also moved
up notch to seventh place. AL
though their schedule was con-
siderably weaker than the aver
age MVL team, the Bishops will
get a chance to see just how they
stack up when they invade Nc
Connelsville, Thursday night.
Springfield Township has the
toughest defense in class B play,

SHORTS e
CALDWELL REDSKINS

OAADWELL REDSkINS meet
another stiff challenge to their
first bid for an undefeated season
when they engage the tough
Crooksville Ceramics on their
own field, Friday night at 800
o'clock. The Ceramics were rat
ed as one of the preseason fav-
orites but have dropped three
games to the leagues toughest
teams. RoSeville measured the
Ceramics 44-21, Philo won 26-0
and last week M & M took a 25-7
decision. On the other hand,
CrookSville trounced Glouster
58-6, Byesville 1916, New Con-
cord 14-0, and Dresden 1910. On
their own field the Ceramics can
be very tough, especially when
they are in a position to upset a
top-running team. The Redskins
have the will and determination
to win this game, but will pro-
bably be fighting off let-down
after last weeks easy victory.
THE CERAMICS lost five start
ers from last year but have
returning Frank Savage, Ed I'm
lay, Jack Sprouse, Gail Wolfe,
Ed Moore, and Jerry Phillips.
Five additional lettermen are
Warren Rarick, Wally Cannon,
Dave Alderman, Jerry Price, and
Ray DeGarmo. Two newcomers,
John Gorby and Allen Rodgers
have already won places on the
first eleven. The backfield aver
ages 160 pounds and the line 165
with six seniors and IL juniors
listed on the roster. Ed Moore
was named all-league quarter
back last year, while Sprouse
and Wolfe made second string.
CHIEF POINTMAKER for the
Ceramics this year has been
freshman end Allen Rodgers,
who has shared five touchdown
passes and three points for 33
points. Fullback Gail Wolfe has
plunged over for three touch
downs and seven points for 25
points. Quarterback Moore has
scored three times, halfback Rar-
ick four and end Gorby twice. Six
other touchdowns have been dis
tributed among an equal number
of players.

LAST YEAR in snow storm,
Crooksville downed Caldwell
1870 on sheer power plays. ALL
league fullback John Dalryrnple,
who led the MVL scoring with
SO points went rs yards for the
first touchdown, while Al Dennis
right halfback went 20 yards for
the other. Dalrymple kicked one
of the two points. Caldwell's
vaunted passing attack failed to
click, the Redskins gaining only
25 yards through the air and 36
on the ground.
TEN YEARS AGO - The Red
skins burst loose for 33 points
in the fourth quarter to down
Crooksville 46-12 on the local
field. Caldwell scored twice in
the opening period when jun
Clark passed to Paul Oliver for
a 40-yard touchdown and passed
to Jack Barnhart for another.
Clark plunged for one point
while Dave Fowler was halted
in his try for point. Crooksville
came back to score touchdowns
in the second and third periods,
trailing only 1912 entering the
fatal fourth. Dave Fowler scored
from the one-yard line with
Clark passing to Bud Ralston for
the point. Next Clark rambled
73 yards for touchdown but was
stopped trying for the point.
Having quite a field day, jun
intercepted two passes and raced
25 and 40 yards to pay dirt. Paul
Oliver racked up the final tally
by returning an intercepted pass
20 yards. Clark dropkicked one
point and passed to oliver for
another.

WASHINGTON Up - A Republi.
can move to squeeze Sen. Moody

Banking Committee, in the event
a special session of Congress is
called, came to light Saturday.
The committee would play a ma
jor role if President Truman calls

would ask it primarily for a tough

Moody is one of the few pro-
Truman stalwarts on the group,
through which any new economic
controls bill would have to pass.
Sen. Flanders (R.-Vt.) confirmed

Building 124 at the Naval Station.
Bernard Frank, registered Me-

very unique form of corroSion
which has been plaguing ships de-

The talk will deal with the cause,
theory, method of detection, repair,
and prevention of underwater cor

equipment and products which
have been never publicly demon

doubtedly these will be adaptable
to the many problems of corrosion
that are encountered by local engi-
neerS.
Mr.. Edgar Stark will assist with
the demonstrations.

The poles were awaiting ship
ment by truck to Key West wnere
the Richards company is at work
on the $3.50, 900 construction joe of
electrifying the Lower Keys for

Some 200 OF the poles have al

Ark Is Hunted

ISTANBUL, Turkey IN - A
French expedition headed by Polar
Explorer Jean de Riquer today
began an ascent of Mt. Ararat in
search of possible remains of
Noah's Ark.
Tradition gives Mt. Ararat, In
northwest Turkey near the Soviet
frontier, as the spot where the Ark
grounded after the flood subsidized.
The chance that remnants OF the
vessel we're preserved atop the
mountain long has intrigued theo-
logians and Psychologists.
An American group headed by
Aaron Smith fruitlessly searched
the mountain in 1919. Smith said
time limitations prevented a thor
ough examination of the entire
area.
