Our ChristmQses Are
Most Often White

Since 1899, the Flathead valley
itself has only had five Christ
masses without snow on the ground.
Observer Ray Hall at the air.
port commented that the real
white Christmas of the Flathead
was back in 1851 with 26 inches
on the ground. Next whitest was
1902 with 1875 inches, 1929 with
Ills inches, 1916 with 1917 inches,
and 1949 with 10 inches.
1899 had a black" Christmas and
so was 1908, 1888, 1910 and 1941.
Up until 1949 the weather bu-
reau then in Kalispell listed all
snow depths by inches and tenths.
Then depths were changed to
show trace for all readings under
12 inch.
In addition to the five Snowless
Christmases, there have been 18
years with under an inch on the
ground Dec. 25.
Last Christmas had less than a
half inch on the ground, and I'M
less there is a new snowfall, this
Christmas is approaching with a
fraction of an inch not
concealing the grass.

our hearts, mind and soul are all

There are no words, phrases, or

or appraise the incomprehensible
benediction to mankind emerging
from the truth of Christ our risen,
living Lord and Soviour. We can
only pour out our hearts, minds and
souls to God in thanksgiving and
praise For God of heaven cries out
to us saying:
Lift up you heads. oh, We gates,
And be We lifted up, We everIast-

And the King of Glory will come

Who is this King of Glory?
The Lord of Hosts, He is the

irving on time for the game. The
Bowling Green coach, stickler for
the rule book, followed it to the let
ter. The Beavers We're denied the
toss and forced to go on defense.
Bowling Green took over the ball on
the Be 30-yard line with first and
ten. The Beavers lost the game, but
gave the larger Falcon squad one of
its worst times of the season, scor-
ing one of the few touchdowns made
that year by opponents. That same
year the Beavers defeated the Uni
versity of Toledo.
Another season that stands in
Burcky's memory found the Beavers
playing Defiance twice. Both games
were played as fund raisers; both
ended in scoreless ties.
Many students have gained athletic
prowess under Burcky's tutelage.
There are Hiram Kohl, Orville Augs-
burger, James Vogelsang, Walter
Diehl, James Creel, Chester Tetlow
and Eldon Beery, to name only few.
During World War ii years, Beery
was one-man gang football team.
Burcky enjoys telling of the Ohio
Northern player who complained to
his coach that he was sick and tired
of trying to run the ball around the
behemoth, Beery, and being tackled.
Burcky, who himself was offered a
tryout with Illinois in the Class C
Three-I League as a youngster,
tutored Hiram Kohl, who as a catch
er, was offered a tryout with the
Cleveland Indians and is still rated
the best backstop ever to wear a
Bluffton college uniform.
If coach" is not remembered by
the records his small but valiant
teams have set, he will long be re-
membered as the man who always
felt the main purpose of athletics is
the building of character among
participants and fans-a rarity in
these days of subsidized college
players.

When the fall sports program
opens this year at Bluffton college, it
will mark another milestone in the
career of the man who for 80 years
has headed the physical education
department at the local college, and
who now ranks in point of service
among the top three Ohio coaches
and athletic directors.
AS dean of coaches and athletic
department heads, A. c. Burcky is
equally ranked only by Walter Liv-
ingston, athletic director emeritus of
Dennison university, and George
Gauthier, athletic director of Ohio
university, Athens.
For his long tenure and record of
broad-mindedness and fair play in
the field of sport, and as a result oi
his contributions to the improvement
of intercollegiate athletics, A. G. was
named some time ago to serve as a
member of the physical education
section of the Ohio College associa-
ton.
"Zig", as he is popularity known
on the campus, started his coaching
career with the Beavers back in 1919.
He had been a student here until
1917 when he left the campus for
duty in the U. S. Army. He served
until the armistice was signed.
In 1919 he served here as a coach
until transferring to the University
of Illinois to do undergraduate work
for six quarters, While there he was
a classmate of Don Peden, former
football coach at Ohio u, and Clar-
ence Mehock, Mansfield, who started
and still heads the famed Mansfield
high school relays.
1t was at Illinois that Burcky was
q member of the first supervised and
curricularized coaching program
where each student was required to
participate in each sport he desired
to coach.
Burcky received numerals as q
member of the baseball team and al.
so starred in industrial league ball
He was ineligible for the varsity nine
because of being a transfer student
He returned to the Beaver campu:
in 1922 and received his degree il
physical education in that year
After graduation be became coach o.
all sports and continued in that capa
city until three years ago when Ker
Mast became head coach of football
basketball and track. Zig remains
tutor of the baseball team.
Now, with considerably less hal
than when he started, "Coach" ca
talk for hours of his experiences wit
his boys" Certain instances stan
out clearly such as the time he too

university for game with tn
Falcons.

cidents to farm people caused BY
motor vehicles now account fo1
nearly one-fourth of all deaths
and injuries that occur on rural
highways. Also, 700 of the fatal
farm accidents reported last yeaf
involved wheel tractors. One-third
of the fatal tractor accidents re.
ported involve persons under "a
years of age. One case in ten was
a child under 5.
To help correct this problem,
the Alters are giving highway
afety demonstrations befors
farm groups and over local radio
stations, as well as putting win,
dow displays in town stores and
booths at county fairs.
The 1854 National al Safety
Program is conducted by the Co.
operative Extension Service. Aa
incentives for outstanding records
in the program, General Motors
provides medals Of honor which
are presented to four county win
ners, and an all-expense trip to
the National Al Club Congress
in Chicago to the state winner.
Eight of the latter will be se-
lected as national winners, each
receiving . $4,000 college
scholarship.

The Ottawa Melody Lane quartet,
which will furnish tarbershop harm
ony at the grand opening Sunday
afternoon of the redecorated Elk
Restaurant, has a 10-year history
and started out that many years
ago when four meri were called on
to furnish ENTERTAINMENT during the
social hour for an lOttawa Sunday
School Glass.
Although there is dnly one member
of the original quartet left, the
organization was ant outgrowth of
the Sunday School incident. Now
the group is not sponsored by any
organization and it is just the love
of singing the old sangs with a new
twist of chords that has placed the
group in demand throughout the
area.

vision tube plant in Ottawa sings
