Carroll Bids For Spot
In Catholic Playoffs
Against Gonzaga

Carroll High, surprise winner
over defending champion st.
Johns two weeks ago, faces its
second big hurdle in the Catho-
lie Basketball League when it
plays Gonzaga at Carroll today
in the second game of a double
header. st. Johns will meet
Mackin in the first game at 2
pm.
The Lions virtually can assure
themselves of a berth in the
championship playoffs with a
victory over Gonzaga in the
nightcap of the twin-bill. 1T
would take a lot of pressure off
u.s." Carroll Coach Bob Dryer
admits. Either DeMartha or
Georgetown Prep could pull an
upset on us. but I don't think
both can; and I'm pretty sure
We can beat Mackin. A 4-3
record should be good enough to
make the playoffS.
But well have to play our top
game to have a chance against
Gonzaga. They're better shots
and better ball handlers than we
are and. frankly. they look to
me to be the favorites in the
league Gonzaga has been win
ming too many games"
Gonzaga has lost only one of
seven SO far and Friday night
won its fourth straight at the
expense of strong George WASH
ington High. In league play the
Eagles have beaten Mackin and
DeMatha without trouble while
Carroll. with a 5-4 record over
all. has knocked off Priory in
addition to st. Johns. Today's
winner will match st. Anthony
for the league lead with a 80
mark.
st. Johns should meet little
opposition against Mackin In
spite of three defeats this season.
the Cadets are considered one of
the outstanding scholastic teams
in this area. while Mackin has
won only one of its nine games
so far.
One other schoolboy game to-
day will be played at DeMatha
at 2 pm. with st. Mary's OF
Annapolis supplying the OPPOSE
ton.

LEXINGTON, KY, Nov. "a
Blanton Collier. who picked up
the winning habit as an assist
ant coach with the Cleveland
Browns, is reeling, with memories
from his first effort in the coll
lege ranks.
His fondest one, he mused to-
day, was last Saturdays vic
tory over Tennessee-"A fitting
climax to the Season"--the big
triumph that projected his Ken
lucky Wildcats into post-sea-
son bowl talk.
Looking back, his teams vic
tories over Georgia Tech and
Auburn, other teams mentioned
in bowl talk, are other high
lights.
Golfers job was cut out for
him at the start. His schedule
was voted the toughest in the
conference. His coaching job
was known to be the toughest.
The mild hammered native
Kentuckian came in behind Paul
Bryant, who made his mark at
Kentucky and then moved on
to Texas AGM. But Collier
took a squad depleted with 10
graduationS and not one man
to come in as a replacement.
Freshmen were made ineligible
at the end of last season. Ken
lucky, unlike most other teams,
had no organized junior varsity
to draw from.
So Collier, using last seasons
squad - minus 10 men - COM
pleted his gruelling schedule
with seven victories and three
defeats.
Kentucky's fast finish-seven
victories in its last eight starts
-catapulted the club into bowl
speculation.

certainly would give 1t serious

Duck Hunting To
Be Good In Areas

COLUMBUS, OHIO - Recent
heavy rains throughout the State
have enhanced the duck hunting
prospects at Public Shooting
Areas, according to the Ohio Divi-
sion of Wildlife. Areas where
water conditions for waterfowling
are especially good are Spring
Valley Lake, Resthaven, Delaware
Reservoir, and Knox Lake.
Spring Valley and Knox Lakes
are both new, and not completely
filled with water at the present
time. Brushy areas are, however,
flooded and will provide an abun-
dance of waterfowl food this fall.
1t is typical of new lakes in Ohio
to be more attractive to ducks the
first few years after completion.
At the Delaware Public Hunting
Area the Al upland ponds con-
structed last year proved to be ex-
cellent waterfowl nesting areas
this summer, and added materially
to the local duck population at
the Reservoir.

Method: Wash apples; dry; re-
move stems; insert wooden sticks
firmly in stem ends. Stir sugar,
a medium-sized saucepan until
sugar almost dissolves. Add
enough red coloring to color syrup
bright red; add cinnamon sticks.
Cover: bring slowly to boiling. Re-
move cover; boil rapidly, without
stirring, until l teaspoonful of the
syrup separates into hard brittle
threads when dropped into cold
water 300 degrees on a candy
thermometer. During cooking,
wipe inner sides of pan often with
wet cheesecloth wrapped around

may form. Remove from heat.
Tip saucepan; dip apples, twirling
in syrup until covered. Let any
extra syrup on apples drain back
into saucepan. Work quickly,
placing saucepan over low heat or
boiling water if necessary to keep
syrup thin enough to coat apples
easily. Save enough extra syrup
to help stick on decorations. Place
coated apples, stick up, on lightly
buttered cooky sheet to harden.
Decorate.
Note: For decorations use some
of the following: gum drops,
marshmallows, doughnut shaped
hard candies, licorice strips.

Fire Hazards On
Increase In Fall

MIR. Charles r. Scott, State Fire
Marshal warns that the fall sea-
son presents many fire hazards.
Burning of leaves, Halloween dec
orations and costumes, and the
heating system in your home pre-
sent many fire opportunities.
Do not burn fallen leaves but,
place them in a compost pile. The
compost will make excellent ferti-
lizer for use next spring on your
lawn, garden or flower beds. If
you must burn the leaves take the
following precautions: Never burn
leaves on a windy day; they
should be placed in a covered wire
mesh container, well away from
buildings and fences, and then you
should stay close by the burning
leaves until the fire is out so that
you can guard against the fire
spreading and starting other fires.
NevAr allow small children to
burn leaves, this is a job for the
adult.
Only Halloween costumes and
decorations that have been flame
proofed should be used. Materials
may be tested by holding a lit
common paper match in a hori-
zontal position one-half inch un-
derneath it for a minimum of fif-
teen seconds. If the material will
not support a flame it is safe to
use. Materials may be made flame
resistant by dipping or spraying
with solution of 3 lbs. of Borax
and 212 lbs. Boric Acid dissolved
in 6 gallons of water. You can pur-
chase paper decorations that have
been flame-proofed in most stores.
Electric lights should be used to
light Jack-O-Lanterns instead of
candles. Let's make Halloween a
time of fun not tradgedy.
All SCOT should be cleaned from
heating systems and chimneys be-
fore they are used this fall. Auto
matte controls should be checked
and adjusted by an experienced
person. Belts to the blower should
be adjusted and bearings should

What's Halloween without cam
dy apples? Especially if they are
glazed with a red cinnamon-fla-
vored syrup and decorated to look
like hobgoblins. Spooky is the
word for these treats
Teen-age youngsters can make
these candy apples themselves;
but it would not be wise for little
folk to work with the hot syrup
into which the apples are dipped.

hors, bought at drugstore, may
be used.

Redlegs' Freshman
Manager Is Best?

'Tebbetts is the best. There are
a lot of good managers in the
league, but Birdie is the best. He's
the greatest"
The speaker was big Ted Klus-

and the major league home run
king of 1854
A group of writers, former and
present day players were discus
sing baseball in general at the
World Series when the subject of
managers came up
Kluszewski was asked why he
thought Tebbetts, the Redlegs'
freshman manager, was the best
in his opinion.
We'll, I don't know how to ex-
plain it," said big Ted. 'T guess
it's because he does things for us
and treats us as he would have
liked to have been treated when
he was a player. It's the little
things he does. And then too, he
really knows mis- stuff about the
game of baseball.
I'VE all know what's going on
at all times and everyone hustles.
Birdie isn't the nagging type but
you know you had better hustle
and think, or else. He doesn't drive

don't hustle and dc as you should,
he is going to step on you.

Gardening Tips
For This Week
By CYNTHIA LOWRY

Beets, carrots and turnips, which
like cool, if not cold, weather, may
be kept in the ground. But if there
is danger of a period of extremely
cold weather, they may be lifted,
stored in boxes of sand in an un-
heated garage or some place
where the temperature hovers be-
tween freezing and 40 degrees.
Green tomatoes, wrapped in
newspapers. and stored, should be
inspected weekly. Dispose instant
ly of the ones which are rotting,
and eat or stew those turning red.
They keep longer if plucked with
a bit of stem.
Instead of removing the seeds
from sunflower heads after curing
them couple of weeks, save them
intact. During the winter put out
the entire head where the birds
may have a special feast.
If you haven't started already,
waste no time getting suet and
seed out for the birds if you want
something besides sparrows a.
round the rest of the season.
Top-dress portions of the garden
in need of food, but don't mulch
the. beds until they are frozen. The
object of mulching is not to keep
the beds warm but to prevent al
ternate freezing and thawing ac-
ton which heaves the plants
roots.
If you want succession of tulir
bloom, plant some bulbs very late
and very deep. The earlier-plant-
ed, shallower-planted will bloom
first.
