all but $40 remaining on the clock,
most of the action in the period
seemed to happen in the last three
minutes. The Bulldogs then went
ahead for the first time on a set shot
by Ernie Boutwell,. The lead at this
point changed hands several times.
With less than a minute remaining
on the scoreboard clock Charlie Bout
well hit on a 25-foot push shot to
send the Bulldogs into a 49-48 lead
and all the irafters of the Fieldhouse
shook as the crowd stood on their
seats to watch what the Pirates
would do at this point.
Joe Urich, who played a fine all
around ball game for the Pirates,
took the pass in and dribbled up the
left side, went clear into the Bluff
ton forecourt, passed off to Fields
and the lanky pivot performer layed
the ball up 1 md in for the winning
marker.
The game was not over, however.
On the basket Fields was fouled and
the attempted free throw was missed.
Ada took the ball inbounds and work
ed it up the floor. With but two
seconds remaining on the clock Char
lie Boutwell, went down the middle
for a bunny which rolled across the
hoop and fell off the opposite side as
the horn sounded the end of the game.
All five of the Bluffton players con-
tributed to the scoring with Fields
getting eight baskets and two charity
tosses for 18 points. He was follow
ed by Lora with IL.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1955-02-24

Then things seemed to click for the
Hardin county crew and along with
the Pirates inability to hit from the
foul line-they hit on only 2 of II
in the last half after bagging 8 of 13
the first two periods-outscored the
slightly bewilH Hered locals II to 6 and
pulled into 34-34 tie at the end of
the third period.
This set the stage for the frantic
last period which had the crowd
moving its eyes up and down the
court as though they were watching
a ping pong exhibition. And it was
not from the fact that the two clubs
were moving the bhll so fast either,
but mainly from frequent bad pass
ing and sloppy bah handling.

Beavers Invade

Night
Polar Bears Are Ninth
Opponent For Bluffton
College In % Days

Bluffton colleges Beavers come to
the end of their 22-day barn
storming schedule in which they will
have played nine games Saturday
night when they meet the Ohio
Northern Polar Bears in a Mid-Ohio
League contest at Ada.
The Beavers have not had over q
three-day respite from the heavy 60
ing since they met Huntington, In
diana, college January 29 on their
home floor. And half of these con-
tests were on the road. Two of them
were down in the southern part OF
the state where they met Rio Grande
and Cedarville.
Coach Ken Mast's club, with a
record for the season of three wins
and Is losses, will be out to avenge
an earlier 69-5F loss to the Polar
Bears who until recently rated as
one of the top qlubs in the state.
The Polar Bears last contest was
94-77 pasting at the hands of the
Findlay Oilers. The defeat knocked
the Bears into third place in the MO
behind Findlay, which clinched its
fifth league crown in the last six sea-
sons, and Defiance's Yellowjackets
The loss gave the Bears a Ga mark
in the MO.
The Beavers will also have another
good reason for wanting a victory
over the rival Northern club. Last
Saturday night they travelled to
Cedarville and lost high scoring
1896 overtime battle. 1t was the first
MO win for Cedarville in two years
and saw them overcome a 17-point
Bluffton advantage in the contest.
With the addition of their two high
flying guards, Bill Orn, who hit fol
"a against Cbdarville, and John
Augsburger, WHO hit for 81 in the
victory over Wilmington last week
the Beavers could turn the trick
against the veteran Northern club.
The Beavers end their season with
Mid-Ohio contest at Ashland next
Wednesday.

But lady luck was with them all
the way and the Harris coached team
eked out a 50-49 Hecision over the

in the last nine seconds.
The contest, while it wound up
much the same as the regular season
contest between the two schools when
the Pirates outscored the Bulldogs
1912 in the overtime period for 63-
55 win, did not have the Frank Mer-
riwell finish which marked that con-
test. Whereas the pirates had to
come from behind I15-point deficit
to win the extra session thriller at
Ada, this time they Igot the jump on

JAWS GUARANTEED
EMPLOYMENT PLAN

QUESTION: Will high seniority
workers want layoffs to come by
reverse seniority under the plan?
ANSWER NO. The effect of the
Guaranteed Employment Plan will
not be to turn the seniority clauses
of our agreement upside down.
There will still be many reasons
why worker will prefer remain
ing on the job rather than being
laid off.
In case of widespread recession,
the high seniority worker will
know that he is safeguarding Sc
curity for himself and his family
by remaining at work until layoffs
finally reach up to his place on
the seniority list. AS long as he
remains on his job the high SEN
iority worker is safeguarding the
So weeks of guaranteed living
standards due him, if and when
layoffs finally reach him. Once his
Is lad OIL, he Will be using up that
security instead.
If layoff takes place in one
plant while general conditions in
the industry are good, the laid-off
worker will vrey likely be offered
suitable job somewhere else. He
must be available for such work.
He is not on paid vacation. But
the job worker gets while he is
on layoff will probably not be as
desirable as the job in his own
plant. 1t may be further from home
and involve learning new tasks and
so on. Most workers would prefer
to keep their regular job.
In some short-term layoffs, such
as layoffs for taking inventory, the
employer may prefer to keep low
seniority workers on the job and
lay off high seniority workers. De-
tails like this can be worked out
in the negotiation and administra-

STEVE J. NovAK, PRES.
LOCAL 497, uAW-Clo

Members of Local 497, as we'll as
their friends of this Community,
are currently very much interested
In the talks that have begun be-
tween the Company and Union in
preparation for actual contract ne
gotiation. Our present contract ex-
pires on September Is, 1855, a
little more than a month from now,
but as yet our talks have been
purely preliminary.
This local union has placed be-
fore management some of the con-
tract changes our members desire
and have based these union pro-
posals on the Company's ever-in-
creasing profits and the Company's
financial ability and obligation to
share a portion of its success with
the workers who have helped make
that success possible.
These union requests were given
in an above-board, respectful man
ner and we have every reason and
right to expect the Company ans
wer or counter-proposal to also be
realistic and to be presented us
with respect.
The necessary ingredients for
the Good Labor-Management Rela-
tions recipe does not include un-
necessary haranguing or "horse-
trading" AS we enter the next
session of talks, this union desires
the very minimum of time-con-
suming side tracks and we hope
that in the future our time will be
spent in realistic discussion and
agreement on the real issues in
v0lved.
