Beaverdam Cagers
Hang On To End
Spot In County

The Allen County basketball league
race is beginning to shape up as the
preseason forecasters predicted with
the Conner Bobcats and Beaverdam
Beavers standing IL in the loop fol-
lowing last weeks games.
Conner captured their third straight
league fray last Friday as it handed
Elida a 66-43 setback on the losers
court. The Bobcats, paced by Bow
man and Frysinger with % and %
points respectively, held 1921 half
time lead and were never threatened
in the contest.
Beaverdam meanwhile won their
second loop game of the campaign
and their fourth in six starts this
season with narrow 1851 win over
the winless Harrod club of former
Blufftonite Rich Gratz.
The Beavers, who are tied for sec
ond place in the loop, after building
up a 1928 lead after two periods,
had to stave off a last half Harrod
rally which fell short but threw a
scare into the favored Beaverdam
crew.
Arnold with 19 and Hughes with
Is paced the Beavers scoring. Dale
Walters, the high scoring forward,
was held to ii. For Harrod Bechtol
and Taber each had Is.
In the other league game Spencer
vile, after trailing 40-24 at halftime,
rallied for "A points in the last half
only to drop a 71-68 decision to sec
ond place co-holder Lafayette. The
Bearcats tied the score at 54 all at
the end of the third frame and then
could not stand the pace in the final
frame.
Five of the Wolves hit in the dou-
bic figures with Plate getting Is.
Harter led the Bearcats with 20 fol-
lowed by Gasldll with 18.

able Comment.

The Gift Shop at the Milford
Memorial Hospital has caused much
enthusiastic comment. 1t is spOn-

Mrs. Raymond Masten. Many at
tractive and inexpensive gift items
are carried in stock.

The Gift Shop is on the right
as you enter the hospital. This
makes it very convenient to stop
and purchase some item to carry
to relatives or friends as you visit
them. Ice cream has proved a
popular purchase and one very
welcome to most patients. Ciga-
rettes, candy, gum or magazines
are inexpensive but bring pleas
ure to anyone confined to bed.
All of the attendants volunteer
their time and seem to enjoy the
time in the shop very much. Any
one who would like to help in the
Gift Shop, either in the afternoon
from 1890 to 4:30 or in the eve
ming from $50 till o'clock, may
call Mrs. Frank Lynch, Milford

All of the profit from this worth
while project will go towards
equipping a Physical Therapy room

to people suffering from any kind
of stiffness or soreness. It will
help those suffering from arthitis
and those trying to get back the
