Pirates Tackle Basketball Goliath
Friday Invading Toledo Waite
By DIVISION or WILDuFE

Bluffton high schools basketball
team is expected to undergo its first
real test of the young season this
Friday night when it travels to
Toledo to meet the Toledo Waite
Indians in a game at the Waite field
house.
1t will be the first meeting between
the two schools and should give Coach
Joe Harris a smattering of what to
expect of his ball club during the up
coming Western Buckeye League
campaign. The Pirates open their
WBL season at Shawnee December 9.
Not too much is known of the
strength of the Waite quintet. Last
year the Indians compiled a record
of wins and ID defeats and are re-
portedly not too big. Their tallest
played is about Ga.
If, however, they play the tradition
al Toledo area type of game in which
the race horse type of offense is pre-
dominate the Pirates will have to be
up for the game. The fieldhouse floor
is larger than most high school floors
in this area and being the home club
will give Waite an added advantage

Triplett's Win
First Game In
Loop Title Chase

Bluffton Triplett's basketball team
successfully opened defense of its Lii
ma National League title last We'd
nesday night with 46-42 victory ov-
er Ottoville at Lima's Bradfield Cen
ter gymnasium.
The Bluffton quintet won the game
via the field goal route. They bucketed
10 shots from the floor to 13 for the
Putnam county team. Ottoville held
the edge from the free throw line as
they collected 16 to for the locals.
Fred Hermann with 10 and Keith
Kirkland and Tom Bucher with each
paced the Triplett teams attack in
the contest.
The next league game will be
against Bradfield Center at 8 p. m.
Wednesday.
In montague games during the
past week Triplett defeated Bradfeld
Center, 60-54, last Friday night and
edged Pandora Milling Co., Alas, in
an overtime Monday night.

through Thanksgiving Day and some
of the varsity candidates were MEM
bers of the football squad. This
should be to the Pirates advantage
because it will take some of the
Toledo players several games to get
over their football legs.
The Pirates, according to Coach
ice Harris, will probably stick to the
lineup which has started the first
two games of the season. This would
have Ron Lora and Ronnie Geiser at
forwards, Jack Fields at center, and
Jim Berry and Joe Urich at the guard
spots. Dan Gleason and Bob Badert-
scher are also expected to see lot
of action at the forward posts with
Don Alspach backing up Fields at
the pivot.

Coach Ken Mast's 1886 edition
of the Bluffton college basketball
Beavers will play three contests of
its 2O-game schedule within the next
seven days with two out-of-town
games and one home game on tap.
The season opens tonight, Thursday,
at Manchester, Ind, college.
In their second away game this
week the Beavers travel to Ada
Saturday night to meet a veteran
Ohio Northern university aggregation
on the Taft gymnasium hardwood.
Next Tuesday the team opens its
home season entertaining the Student
Princes of Heidelberg at Founders
Hall gym.
Lack Of heighth will again be in
evidence as the Beavers seek to bet
ter their record of 3 wins and II
losses posted last season The in
ability of the club to get the ball off
the boards has been a big factor in
favor of opponents for the past
several years and, from all indica-
tions this phase of the game will
again hurt the teams chances of a
winning season.
Two of the biggest men from last
years squad, 6-5 John Moser, and
Go Dave Bertsche, are not enrolled
in school this year which has not
helped alleviate Mast's worries.
Four lettermen have reported from
last seasons club. They include Roger
Bixel, Tom Reichenbach, George
Bailey and Jim Bishop. Bishop is
the tallest of the holdovers at 6-1.
Two new opponents will appear on
the Beaver schedule for the first time
this year. Bethany, w. Va, will play
here December 8 and Tabor college

Ohio Conference
Happy With MO
Eligibility Rule

Athletic Director A. G. Burcky of
Bluffton college, and C. L. "Pete"
Spaid, Findlay, commissioner of the
Mid-Ohio League, attended meeting
of the Ohio Conference Monday at
Westerville, o.
At the meeting the two MO repre-
sentatives answered refuted charges
that the Mid-Ohio was a refuge for
transfer students of the Ohio Confer
ence and other schools who were not
subject to eligibility rules and thereby
lured them to enroll at MO schools.
The Mid-Ohio League recently
adopted new ruling making any
transfer student enrolling at mem
Der school ineligible to participate in
a major sport for one year. The rul-
ing became effective in October of this
year.
Burcky pointed out that officials of
the Ohio Conference were gratified to
learn of the change of eligibility rules
of the MO. They felt it would make
for better relations in the field OF
athletics in the future.
Several members of the OC also
gave indication that they would like
to schedule the Bluffton college track
squad for the coming spring season
The Beavers have captured the MO
track crown for five consecutive years
and have a fine reputation among
schools throughout the state.

cided almost wholly from the foul
line. The Pirates high percentage
coming on 25 of SO from the line.
They had % field goals to "a for the
Bearcats, who hit nine of Is charity
tosses during the contest.
Coach Harris said he thought his
boys looked relatively good on offense
for the first game of the season. He
was especially pleased with the show
ing from the free throw line.
Defensively he was not too enthu-
siastic with the showing, although he
stated that the Pirates were working
with an almost entirely new defensive
alignment. Several times during the
contest the Bearcats got behind de-
tenders for goals. Harris pointed out
that the team will continue to work
great deal ON that phase of the
game during practice sessions.
Buttons reserves took the opener

Three "H's" Cause
Many Winter Fires

The three "H's"-Heaters, Hearth
fires and Heating systems-are prin-
cipal reasons why winter is the worst
season for fires, according to the
National Board of Fire Underwriters.
The dangers are obvious. Each of
the three "H's" involves live flame
or very high temperatures. One
space heaters-often involves the use
of flammable liquids.
To help protect your home, take the
following precautions:
/. Heaters. These may present
varied hazards. Electric heaters con-
sumo a good deal of current and may
overload house circuits. Gas heaters
should be vented to the outdoors. Oil
heaters should be set level, and never
filled or carried while they are lighted.
Keep the fuel supply outdoors. Wipe
up all spillage. Since heaters use up
oxygen, always keep door or window
slightly open in a room where such
heater is in use.
All types of heaters should, of
course, be kept clean and in good con-
dition. Any heater that is not in good
condition-because of age, damage or
wear-should be thrown away.
Heaters in use should be set out of
the line of traffic and away from cur
tains, tablecloths, furniture and other
combustibles.
2, Hearth fires. To keep sparks
from flying out on rugs and uphol-
stery, keep a sturdy fire screen in
place at all times. Chimneys must be
clean and free of cracks, too.
3. Heating systems. Every home
heating plant, including boilers and
pipes, must be kept clean and in good

A veteran Bluffton high school bas-
ketball team opened the 1856 cage
season with a 1851 victory over the
Spencerville Bearcats last Wednesday
night at the high school gymnasium.
Coach Joe Harris quintet, with
five lettermen holdovers from last sea-
son, poured it on in the second quar-
ter, outscoring their opponents two
to one, to turn an otherwise close con-
test into a comparative rout.
The Pirates got off to very slow
start and without the aid of some un-
canny accuracy from the free throw
lane might have seen their first game
go by the boards. Overall the Bluffton
team shot for sc percent average
from the charity line. IL of these
came in the opening quarter when
they were able to hit on only one field
goal and enabled them to pull into a
1913 tie at the end of the period.
Then the home team pushed Is
straight points through the hoops
while holding Spencerville scoreless
and left the floor with commanding
1926 lead at the intermission.
Joe Urich, junior guard, paced the
Pirates attack with seven field goals
and 10 free throws for 24-point to-
tai. He was followed by Jack Fields
with 1S, Ron Lora with IL. and Jim
Berry with 10.
The Bearcats' Dick Rider hit nine
field goals for Is points to take run
nerup honors along with Fields.
