National Basketball Tourney Entries
Must Be In By Friday, February 25th

Pittsburgh, Pa. - Atten-
ton is once again directed to
the Society's 18th Annual
Basketball Tournament, the
deadline for entries and to
Youngstown, Ohio, the scene
of the cage classic.
Entry forms have been dis
tributed some time ago and
conditioning in preparation
for the tournament already
has been reported in these
columns from such far flung
spaces as Omaha, Nebraska,
and in Pennsylvania from
Monessen and Steelton. 9th
ers are making hotel reserva-
tons and we hope that others
will storm the Youngstown
committee in this respect
also.
Here at the Home Office
we are especially interested
to get all those entries, senior
and junior, by the deadline
date which by the tourna-
ment rules itself has been set
as February 25th.
Now for a few words about
Youngstown, Ohio, as relayed
to us by the Chamber of Com
merce and the tournament

most recent games of the st.

resulted in some drastic chan

Baretincic Morticians an d
the Churchmen administered
the same dose to the first
half champion Clark Powells.
For the Churchmen Char
les Gojmerac took both indi-
vidual high honors via 210-
189-559. Aided by a new
conner, Vic Farkas, Jr., who
chimed in with 189-161-498.
For the losing CPS, John
Gredesky was high with 442,
followed by John Fabina with
a 432 set.
It was more or less on the
order of a flashback to see
the Lodge 5 keglers in their
old form as they rolled
scores of 763-74O-831 for a
fine aggregate of 1884. John
Kolar was outstanding as he
hit upon a sol series. Edward
Cominskey's 468 set n d
Mark Gojmerac with 465 al
so figured in these totals.
The Morticians who have
been having tough luck lately
by losing close games, lost
another by 5 pins. In the mid
die game Victor Farkas, Sr.,
a new addition to our ranks,
rolled 2O8-516. Junior Ray

SteeItcn Hoop Squad
Boasts Eighf Victories

SteeltOn, Pa. - The st.
Lawrence cage team appears
to have gained a touch of
that spirit which made Lodge
13 an aggregation to be reck-
oned with some years back.
Thus far they have played
nine games, winning eight.
The first found us defeating
the st. Peter court artists, SO
to 40. In this game, two of
our youngsters, L. Kostelac
and Bob Benkovic showed
their wares favorably among
the bigger fellows. Between
them, the pair scored 20
points.
The game January II was
a nip and tuck affair with our
lads, after a 27 point squirt in
the second half, coming out
on top 1914 against the
YMCA Barons. ]. Kostelac
led in this game with II mar
kers. Four days later in a
game abroad, the Lodge 13
cagers ran up a 1850 victory
over the Elizabethtown Lions
Club. Robert Benkovic was
the outstanding player in
this game with 26 points. The
defensive play of Stephen
Volgan helped assure our
victory.
A 1854 victory January
goth against the st. Patrick
A. c.. was next. Both teams
were tied ~ all at the half
way mark, the st. Patricks
leading by two points at the
close of the third quarter
with the C.F.U. pulling ahead
in the final stanza. Ofak with
Is and w. Krovic with three
less led the attack.
The letdown came January
% against the Lebanon Ba-
lognas when our club looked
better in defeat than in some
| of their victories thus far.
The score 1851 against us
may be the result of too few
games. The schedule has been
stepped up to three games a
week when scheduling per-
mits.
The fifth victory of the
season was registered against
the Hershey Spartans, 46-41.
The St. Lawrence club had to
| concentrate on defense as
well for the Spartans have
the reputation of a scoring
machine. At that their Grove
tailed 13 points, our own
points coming mainly from A.
Radios and ]. Benkovic with
10 and 9, respectively.

a cereal, or in desserts, lots of
versatile rice is available.
Oranges And Grapefruit
Refreshing and healthful
oranges and grapefruit will
continue in abundance.
These citrus fruits are
plentiful in all forms - fresh,
frozen, and canned. Raisins
also continue in good supply,
and small-sized prunes in q
pound economy packages are
a good buy. Plenty of juicy,
crisp apples will be found in
Northeast fruit stalls.
All the dairy products are
plentiful. Milk, often called
natures most perfect food, is
in more than ample supply.
Last years milk production
was a record 1888 billion
pounds, and milk flow is now
on a seasonal increase. That
gives us the abundance of
butter, cheese, and other
dairy products.
Lard production has been
especially heavy this season
with the larger marketing of
hogs. Vegetable fats and
oils, which include shorten
ing, salad oils, and oleomar-
garine, remain in good sup
ply.
All-Around Cooperation
This list of plentiful foods
is one Of a series issued by
the y. S. Department Of Agri-
culture as part Of the plenti-
full foods program.
Aimed at increasing the
movement of abundant foods
through normal trade chan
nels, this program is conduct
ed comparatively by the food
trades and the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Industry members w h o

items on the plenyifuls list in

tors, broadcasters, and other
food advisers pass along in
formation on the plentifuls to

Eggs are at the top of the
February list with good rea-
son. This highly nutritious,
tasty food is a real bargain
these days. Egg supplies,
which were heavy in January,
are continuing abundant in
February. And prices are low
- the lowest in 10 years!
In addition to eggs, high
protein main-dish items on
the February list included
turkeys and several kinds of
fish. Ample supplies Of tur-
keys, especially the larger
sizes, are selling at lower pii-
ces than last year. Frozen
haddock and halibut are out
standing fish buys. Cold sto-
rage plants have millions of
pounds of these excellent fish
fillets in stock and prices are
very reasonable. ...
Record quantities of
shrimp are also counted in
millions of pounds, with both
fresh and frozen shrimp low
er in price than in the past
few years. Cod also is in hea-
Wy supply, and inventories of
canned tuna are at record
levels.
Canned Corn, Snap Beans
Several vegetables appear
on the February list, to
brighten mid-winter meals.
Markets will have good
supplies of carrots and let
tuce, mainly from the winter
crops grown in California,
Texas and Arizona. Florida
also supplies us with lettuce
in February. The crops in all
those states are larger than
last years.
Grocers' shelves will carry
plenty of canned sweet corn
and canned snap beans. The
canning industry put up q
huge quantity of these popu-
lar vegetables in 1854, assur.
