lights at Harmon field this Wednes-

field for years, was a real old fash
ioned pitchers duel between Bill
Hart, Triplett hurler, and Findlay's
Massey.
Taking advantage of walk and
hit batsman, the visitors tailed
their only run of the game when
they followed with two successive
singles in the first inning.
Triplett meanwhile proved easy vic
tins for the slants of Massey and
didn't garner a safety until the fifth
inning.
In the last half of the fifth, after
Bob Gratz and Don Schmidt were
retired, Dick Fett, Triplett catcher,
bunted safely in front of the plate
for the first hit off Massey.
Bluffton tailed the tieing run in
the sixth inning when Kent Stonehill
led off with long drive to right field
for a home run.
The winning run came in the last
of the seventh. Hart led off and was
hit by pitched ball. He stole second
and scored when Stonehill sent high
fly ball to short right center which
the center fielder dropped after max
ing a long run. The ball hit his glove
and dropped to the ground.
Bluffton had two runs on three hits
while Findlay got one run and four
hits.

There are three main types of influenza termed A.

proper vaccines can be made in time and an epidemic

nesses employ women to entice
their customers toward greater
spending. And it might not be
amiss to point out that serving
alcoholic beverages, attending
cocktail parties, and providing en-
tertainment is generally included
in a respectable hostess routine.
The airlines for instance, do not
advertise the fact that they sell
drinks but in discreetly worded
"Stewardesses' Advice" leaflets,
the companies remind their en-
ployees that the whiskey is aboard
if any passenger should desire to
buy it.
AS l said before, there are
shades between black and white
which the public accepts as being
all right insofar as moral conven-
tons are concerned. There is no
reason that the local bars cannot
work out a solution to their pro-
blem which would not offend pub
lie taste. Liquor and sex are as
inevitable as death and taxation.
If the situation isn't handled in a
normal manner publicly, you're
going to have undesirable secret
activities. Secret" that is, be-
cause the public viii bury its head
in the sand like an ostrich and re-
fuse to see what is going on.
There are sins Of omission as
well as those of commission. Re-
latively speaking, the majority OF
us are guilty of the former be-
cause as long as We can keep ini-
quities hidden, we feel that they
are of no concern to us. Most OF
our laws have the effect of driv-
ing the activities they seek to cor
rect underground. This doesn't
make such laws wrong but proves
the fact that until people delve
deeper into ethical subjects, only
the external appearances of pub
lie life are going to be changed =
law or no law.
A man can cover his dirty hide
by putting on clean clothes. An
ordinance can remove external
appearances of sin. In either case,
nothing is accomplished. Real
changes have to occur from the
- :, the outside. In the case
Of mankind, this means an intros.
-. o. Ihe soul and inventory
of the mind.
But until this is done my sym.
! pathy still goes out to the guzzler
who loses a precious ounce Of his
whiskey because some B-girl Jug
giles him on the elbow when she
begs drink. Perhaps if someone
could persuade Emily Post to
write book on barroom etiquette
and get the B-girls to study it, the
situation wouldn't be so bad.

NEW ATOMIC TESTS IN MARCH

The Atomic Energy Commission recently announced
that the atomic will be held near Las Vegas Ne
vada in March The announcement revealed that the
series of tests designed ito advance development of
improved nuclear devices"
The announcement not specific but it is as
stunned that the tests will the hydrogen bomb
which was first tested in November 1852 Former Presi
dent Harry Truman has said that the November sig
nailed the arrival of weapon which could wipe out the
civilization built up over the centuries
While we do not claim to know, We would assume
that the March tests will include hydrogen bomb deo-
nation with careful check of results on both human and
physical structures Since Mr. Truman has estimated that
hydrogen bombs will be able to devastae between three
hundred and twelve hundred square miles, the new tests
should prove more valuable than any since the first atomic
tests in the Pacific.

THIS ROCK OF OURS
BY BILL GLIB

Though I've had the following
information for some time, l de-
layed mentioning it in the expec-
tation that one of the regular re-
porters would carry, it as news.
The bar owners and their asso-
ciates who attended the City Com
mission meeting when Carbonell
attempted to Gust King were not
there in anticipation of the events
that took place. As a matter of
fact, / have it on what / consider
unimpeachable authority that the
move took the bar owners as much
by surprise as it did the rest of
the audience.
Their purpose in going to City
Hall was to request that an amend
ment be made to the B-girl ordi-
nance which would permit enter
tainers to sit with customers but
not to 'cadge' drinks. An owner of
one of the larger nightclubs had
planned the request and it was to
be delivered to the commissioners
by a master of ceremonies en-
ployed by him. Just before the
meeting opened, local business
man who is well-versed in politics
warned the bar owners that they
had chosen a particularly bad
night to present such a petition
because Carbonell intended to
move against King.
When the would-b petitioners
heard the arguments that develop
ed as a result of Carbonell's pro-
p0sal, they realized that any
action on their own behalf would
simply hurt matters. They left the
Hall but it is my own private
opinion that you can expect them
to make request for an amend
ment to the B-girl ordinance as
soon as conditions quiet down.
Though I'm definitely against al
lowing girls to continually poster
hard-drinking man or perhaps
to take advantage Of an unwary,
inexperienced one - I certainly
feel the bar owners have every
right to present any petition they
think desirable to the City Com
missioners. They have a lot of
money invested in their business
es. The majority of owners realize
that they need public approval to
be successful and / don't think
they are foolish enough to attempt
to bring back the B-girls.
The entire situation is delicate
and has to be considered in de-
grees rather than in sharp dis
tinctions between right and wrong.
After all, hostesses have come to
be expected in all walks of life.
