Warming up in the second half they
were unable to gain ground on the
Pirates until midway in the fourth
quarter when Coach Joe Harris
emptied his bench.
Guards Joe Urich and Marv Diller,
whose aggressive defensive tactics
flustered the Dutchmen, led the
Bluffton attack with 16 and 13 points
respectively. The remainder of the
local scoring was tightly balanced
among the remainder of the starting
five Substitutes entering the game
in the closing stages counted only
seven points.
High man for the game was Joe
Hart of the Rockets, who scored most
of his 20 points after the game was be-
yond recall. Big Dick Oswald, whose
strong blackboard work in the opener
kept the Rockets in that game, was
limited to only ten points and was
not as much of a rebounding factor
as he had been the previous evening.
Coming hard in the last quarter to
salvage a 52-52 tie with only 16
seconds left in the game Columbus
Grove won the consolation prize.
Carried on the broad shoulders of
Bob Bennett the Cory-Rawson club
fell apart when he fouled out in the
last quarter after scoring 19 points.
When he went to the bench the fight
went out of the Hornet five as they
scord only five points to the Bull
dogs sixteen.
1t was no contest in the overtime
as the Hornets fouled themselves out
of contention. The Bulldogs canned
five free ones and a fielder while the
jittery Hancock county crew netted
only two points.

for the Bulldogs the last three years,

Buttons Pirates won the "back-
wards" Holiday Carnival at Found
er's last Friday when they defeated
the Pandora-Gilboa Rockets 63-46 in
the championship finals. Columbus
Grove, not playing for the champion
ship for the first time in carnival
history salvaged tn e consolation
game with 59-54 overtime victory
over Cory-Rawson.
Overmatched Pandora-Gilboa never
had a chance as Bluffton raced to
an 1S-4 first quarter lead over a team
obviously nervous about playing in
the championship finals for the first
time. The Rockets were flustered by
the Bluffton press which netted the
Pirates four baskets on stolen balls.
When they were able to bring the
ball down the court they were unable
to penetrate the Pirates stiff zone
defense and took wild, useless shots
from the outside.

Itswas the Columbus Grove little
men who paced the Bulldog scoring.
Duane Reed, SIS senior, hit for II.
The other back court man, the
veteran Callahan, collected IL, nine OF
them III the last half when the rest
of the Columbus Grove attack begged
down.
Pandora-Gilboa won the game at
the free throw, line, getting IL one
pointers to the Bulldogs seven. Both
teams collected eighteen fielders.
Nineteen personals were called on
Columbus Grove while their next door
neighbors fouled only ten times, and
that was the story of the long-awaited
Pandora victory.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1957-01-03

Only once this year have they dipped
below the 40 percent mark in their
efforts from the field. In last week S
game with Pandora-Gilboa, for ex-
ample they Gagged "a of 49 shots from
the field, a 49 percent mark. The
only trouble, Harris says is that they
are taking only about SO to 60 shots
from the field each game. He is
hoping for stronger attack which
will see them shooting as many as
20 or so times each game.
Another incentive for the Pirates
is the Western Buckeye League ira
yelling trophy. That infrequent visitor
to the local trophy case will be up for
grabs in tonight'S contest.

Two Basketball
Journeys Slated
At Founders Hall
County Tournament Here
Feb. 1916, 22-23; Class A
Sectional Set For March IL

Founders Hall will again be the
scene of two high school basketball
tournaments this winter.
Opening event will be the Allen
county tournament which will be held
on February 1916, and February
22-23. 1t is not known whether the
tournament will be single or double
elimination. Last years tournament
was single elimination but until that
time it had been the custom for the
smaller Allen county schools 10 stage
a double elimination tournament.
The winner and runner-up schools
will continue to play on local hard
wood as they will be assigned to the
part of the Class A sectional to be
played at Founders Hall. This tour
nament, which is part of Celina
sectional, will be played March IL.
Winners in the Bluffton and Celina
events will advance to Lima for the
sectional finals the following week
end
Miller City and Lafayette, upset
winner over Rluffton, advanced to
Lima last year, the first time this
event ever was held in Bluffton.
Although plans are not completed
for the latter tournament it is expect
survivors of the non-county elimina-
tions at Celina, one Putnam county
and one Hardin county team will be
assigned to Bluffton.
Plans for this tournament will be
drawn up at the meeting of the dis
trict high school athletic association
which will be held at Bowling Green
next Wednesday.

Pirates Capture First Holiday CarniDaI
As Columbus GTOUe Loses In First Round

left-handed his way to 20 points. high
for the game, and the second high
est total ever scored in the holiday
carnivals. 1t has been topped only by
George Keller's SO points against
Pandora-Gilboa in 1854.
Bluffton's Pirates proved a point
in the opening nights play as
they toyed with an ineffective Cory
Rawson, 65-34. Less than two weeks
before the Pirates had to stage a
vicious last quarter rally to defeat
the Hornets 54-51.
Pirate coach Joe Harris, more con-
cerned with winning the ball game,
| than with keeping down the score did
not substitute as freely as he die
in the early stages of the first game.
Although he substituted regularly
throughout the game he did not make
any wholesale changes until the
locals the game safely iced in the
fourth quarter.
The sluggish Hornet five tied re-
cord in reverse as their "a points
matched the all-time carnival low set
by Pandora-Gilboa in 1854. Bob
Fields and Bob Bennett, whose
aggressive play and high scoring kept
the Pirates in hot water in the first
game were occasionally seen and
rarely heard. Bennett, whose nine
points paced Cor y-Rawson, was
limited to one field goal the last three
quarters, while Fields scored only
four free throws.
Don Alspach, although playing a
spotty game, scored IA to lead the
Pirate attack. Marv Diller, given a
little more daylight than he has had
the last two weeks, and Joe Urich
added II and Dan Gleason had ten.
Ramon Lewis, moving into the lineup
for GA Ron Geiser, did some good
work under the boards for the Pirates
making three tipins in the third
quarter alone.
Normally back court man Urich
worked his way under the basket
for several easy markers. Besides,
the agile Urich took a number of
rebounds with some unusually ag-
gressive play.
Pandora-Gilboa' Rockets chalked
up their first Founders Hall victory
since 1858 in the evenings opener
when they came from behind to defeat
Columbus Grove 4743. This marked
the first time in the five-year carni-
val history that Grove had failed to
reach the championship finals.
Trailing 42-37 midway in the fourth
quarter the Rockets piled up ten
straight points before veteran Bull
dog playmaker Jack Callahan added
free throw with a little over a
minute remaining. With Grove lead
ing by two points the Rockets got a
break when Callahan threw the ball
into play from directly underneath
the blackboard, a violation of the
rule adopted this year. Given the ball
in their front court on this turnover
PIG proceeded to tie the score on
their way to tense victory.
1t was junior guard Dave Burk-
holder who came off the bench to
drive the Rockets to victory. In their
four quarter splurge he hit driving
layup, jump shot and long one
handler as he took up the slack when
big Dick Oswald lost the range. The
6-3 Oswald, an outstanding board
man, collected Ia points in the first
three quarters, to lead the Rocket
attack.

Everywhere the Poles are ardent

Polish United Polish Workers
(communisD party, he continued.
The people are united too in
bitterly opposing Soviet control,
he declared. Even the newspa-
pers are openly critical of the
Soviets, he added.
While the people are happy
and optimistic for the future, he
said, they are in poor physical
condition and face the possibility
of starvation.
All over Poland, he said, he
saw fields with abundant crops
and much building activity. Yet,
he went on, the people are wear

Ways and means subcommittee
drew up the bill, said the Senate
is not expected to complete action
on it until next year.
The exemption provision is
one of about so recommended
tions contained in the 429-page
measure which is the first COM
niete technical revision of the
laws since they were adopted in
1882.
The measure, which took two
years to prepare, does not change
existing tax rates, but simpllfies
present legislation and corrects
inequities in their administration.
The exemption for private
non-profit schools was approved
by fhe committee on the
grounds that II was unfair to
tax private schools, while, on
fhe other hand, public schools
do not have TO pay the ievies.
They are exempt because OF
their status as units of local
government.
Tie savings for the schools will
amount to about SO million year.
The overall effect of all revlsions
in the bill on the governments
revenue from excise taxes will be
to reduce it by about $40 million
a year. The taxes annually net
about SO billion.
Private schools pay ieyies
on many items they purchase,
such as sehooIbUses, typewrif-
ers, cabinets and desks, as

ROME - The climate for
religious freedom has greatly
improved in Poland and
religious spirit among the
Polish people is stronger
than it has been in many years.
This is the appraisal of relig-
ious conditions in Poland made
here by Father John Mix, Ameri-
can-Dorn Superior General of the
Resurrectionists, who has just re-
turned from six-week tour Of
his congregations 10 parishes in
that country.
Father Mix, a native of Chi
cago, visited many of Poland's
largest cities, including Warsaw,
Cracow, oman, Gdansk and
Gaynia.
Everywhere in the country,
he reported. the churches are
full and religious devofions
many. One parish, he said. dis
tributes approximately 5000
Comnvnions weekly.
Priests are free to preach in
churches and religion is taught
freely in the schools, he contin-
ued.
But no Church organizations
are permitted, he said, and there
is no really free Catholic press.
Some Catholic publications exist,
he noted, but they are closely
watched by the communist gov
ernment.
Many priests work under diff
fievlf circumstances, he added.
A number Of them have had 10
travel long distances in open
wagons in severe winter wealth
