 History shows that the Lions tourney means little as far as preseason predictions go. Sit ka, which has never won the top prize, has invariably look ed sharpest at seasons end while the winner of the early season tourney went nowhere in particular thereafter.
 The writer took up the role as a rowing reporter all of last week, with one question: Who do you think will win the Lions tourney?" The answer 9 times out of 10 was: Tt will be close" Too close for comfor. to those with weak heart.

 prize, but the cradle of the peach4basket sport will have no reason to apologize for the 1955-56 performances of it's standard bearers.
 The local prep circuit, long known for it's topsy turvy bas ketball, appears talent laden this year and begins a season that looms brightest since 1854 when the local Sitha Timber Wolves gained territorial pro- minence by first upsteeing Jun eau's heavily favored Bears and then whacking Anchorage in the All-Alaska playoffs.
 This unpredictable loop was right in character last season when Edgecunnibe, rated no bet ter than third in preseason cal culations, powered it's way to the Lions preseason tourney championship and to a credit able showing before lowing to a good Ketchikan high team in the all Southeastern showdown
 Meanwhile, heavily favored Sheldon Jackson didn't quite play up to it's potential and fin ished the season in real shock CT, losing to Douglas in the SEE tournament.
 The local Wolves, long weak sister in the Baranof stronghold started Ehe cage wars a year ago with a young crew and did as well as was expected. If new coach Bill Marsh and his up and coming proteges don't crash the charmed circle this season, Timber Wolves follow CTS shouldn't be too disturbed. Experts CD figure this year the Siykans should do better than break even. But next year (as they say in Brooklyn if it isn't this year - watch outl
 The rise of Sitka to position of territorial prominence was rapid, but not noticeable un- til the 1850 season when the Wolves began it's upward trend giving Edgecumdbe and SIS aI real run for their money.
 The loss of the Southeastern crown by a single point to Dou glas in the 1852 playoff was quickly forgot en when SEE fans everywhere thrilled as the Vol yes stages a rags-to-riches cake walk to the 1854 All-Alaska championship.
 And now, under the tutelage of Marsh for the first time, the Wolves begin a season in which die-hard fans of the Blue and White are sitting back in ecst- acy. hoping that the new men tor will deliver the goods a- head of schedule
 Notoriously a slow starter in early season games, the Wolves will be a factor all the way if they can readily adapt to the Marsh system. Well groomed I in basketball wizardry, the new coach should unveil an exciting team which will be a thorn in the side Of foes with champion ship aspirations.
 In Terry Nelson and Norman Wood, Marsh has all his disposal two of the tallest men in local prep captivity Jerry Smith, Gary Paxton and Sammy Mar tin should be fine running mates.
 All is quiet at the Wolve den something big must be brew ing.
 The Sitkans will come out in the open for the first time on Thursday night at the Edge curabe field house when they pair off with John IBorbridge's

Write Letters
T0 Servicemem
Urges Murphy
By VIVIAN BROWN

Your serviceman would prefer a
neEsy letter from home any day
in the week To great big package.
So says World War III hero Audie
Murphy. He explains:
If you want to make a hit with
your man in uniform write him long
newsy letters as often as possible.
Packages are not important usual
ly. because anything you send MIN
can be obtained at post exchanges
for a pitfance. Besides, packages
slow down the mails"
Save your efforts, toe, in the
knitting department advises Audie.
The Army furnishes your man
clothing for whatever the climate.
So he won't need socks, scarves,
sweaters from home to keep him
warm this winter. He Is we'll fed.
too, so don't bake cookies and
cakes. After the package has batted
around in the mails for a few
weeks or months therell only be
stale crumbs to show him for your
efforts anyway.
When composing letters, make
them cheerful. he suggests.
Letters are wonderful morale
builders, providing you don't go
overheard with sad news" he says.
And don't write telling him that
you are waiting for him. He doesn't
believe 1t and doesn't expect you to
wait, unless you are formally en-
gagged"
As far as being engaged at that
point or getting married before
that man enters the service, Audie
doesn't favor It. although he thinks
''it all depends on the individual
case. II doesn't do young people
harm to wait. And il usually works
out so that IL they are right for
each other. they'll wait. After all,
at Is you still have lifetime
ahead of you" he says.
Audie, who earned 23 decora-
tions and the Congressional Medal
of Honor, and lived through a SER
les of bad wounds, admits he pined
for mail himself at times. Il didn't
know very MANY girls at the time,
he says. although brothers and
sisters The has eight were faith
full correspondents"
Audie, mad for skin diving at
the moment The goes TO 20 foot
depth. thinks the most important
news TO most men Is sports. Read
sports pages. digest the news for
your man and he'll love you for it
he says.
And oh yes, girls, If modesty has
been keeping you from sending
your picture to that service man,
don't hesitate. He'll love it. He ad-
vises.
Z Send him a good pin-up picture
of yourself or he'll have one of
Marilyn Monroe decorating his
barracks. But don't bother about a
frame. He won't have a place for
it anyway"
Audie, who has just played him
self In ITO He'll and Back" (Uni-
versaD. the movie based on the
book he wrote about his Army ex-
perience. says:
This military fitness program
won't do any man any harm and
It'll surely increase his chances of
surviving in wartime.
