Hi Gang!
As you can See, there is an empty
spot in our trophy case. Susie,
the travelling trophy, just took off
last Friday right.
Have you noticed that two guys
know haven't been getting along too
we'll? The big mystery is that they
are at swords lpoints over a certain
interest in BeaAerdam. Not to men
ton any names of course, but they
might be called "Bod" and "Zim."
Just what (oI should l say who)
is so fascinating about the Dixie
Skating Rink ih Lima. A certain
group of guys seem to think this is
the best spot oh Sunday nights.
Has anyone figured out the answer
to Spike Berryfs riddle, "What is the
difference between an orange" He
lust confessed to me that it is a
bicycle.
Pm sure glad Johnny Augsburger
transferred this semester from In
diana U. He's not only a great asset
to B. C.'s basketball team but also
to Shirley Galloway's social life.
1t seems that Kay Basinger, Nancy
Steiner, Junior Zimmerly, and Pete

watch the dance last Wednesday
night.

Pirates Close Cage
Seized With 54-52
Loss To- Van Vert
Heartbreaker Brings Down
Curtain On Best Season
In Last 5 Years

Bluffton high schools Pirates end
ed their regular seasSn's basketball
schedule on a sour note last Friday
when they dropped a 54-52 heart
breaker to an improving Van Vert
club in a Western Buckeye League
contest at the high school gym
nasium.
Not only did the loss Ieliminate the
Pirates from the chance of finishing
the league action with tie for
second place but also put the WBL
travelling trophy into the hands OF
the Cougars after it was in posses
sion of the Bluffton team exactly IL
days. The Pirates, who last claimed
the trophy in 1860, had wrested it
from Bellefontaine in an upset Janu-
ary % on the local court.
But in spite of the defeat at the
hands of the Cougars the Pirates
finished their regular season with
their best record on the hardwood
since the 1948-49 season. They end
ed with a seasons mark of lie and
a WBL record of 4-3. They won their
first seven games of the season be-
fore losing to Columbus Grove in the
Christmas Carnival at Bluffton col
lege.
While the contest was close all the
way, which made it\exciting for the
spectators, it was somewhat erratic
in that neither team hit for more
than Is points in any one period
Both clubs hit the figure in the second
frame and the Cougars duplicated
this in the fourth frame as they won
their sixth victory against eight de-
feats and brought their WBI mark
to 3-3. The Cougars play host to
second place Kenton this Friday.
Van Vert, paced by 6-1 senior Ron
Bagley, who tossed in 10 fielders and
a free throw for 21 points, led at the
first period mark 1912 and left the
floor at intermission with slim 28-
81 advantage.
The Pirates, who hit for thei,
second lowest point total of the sea-
son, outscored the visitors in but one
frame. That was the third when they
managed to net 13 points to the
Cougars IL to take a short-lived 40
80 lead at the end of the quarter.
In the final period the contest was
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1955-02-17

a continuation of the nip and tuck
affair which bad lasted for three
quarters. but the anxiety mounted
and in the last so seconds, with the
Cougars laadtng by $3.50, the gym
nasium waY turned into bedlam
when the clock stopped and jim Mat
ter hit fora field goal for the Pirates,
The official timekeeper, unable to
get the officials attention, nuliificd
the goal bnd the score reverted to 81
so. Then Bob Badertscher hit for
two points Asd the game ended 54-52
in favor of the COUGARS.
Jack Fields, wh5 averaged 1879
points per contest IN Is games during
the season, led TIE Pirate scoring
with seven goal5 and seven free
throws for 81 points.
