New York is the setting of
"The Best of Everything"
which deals specifically with
what happens to bright young
girls bent on getting ahead in
the publishing business. Alter
native routes to getting ahead
are the usual ones, sharing a
promising young author or Of
fee associate; or showing a
genius for picking best sellers
from the welter Of articles and
manuscripts that means a
career as an editor.
AS the screenplay based upon
a Roma Jaffe novel goes, either
alternative is sheer hell on
earth. A usually attractive hell,
however, of lavish offices with
picture windows and balconied
bedrooms that give sin a luxur-
ious flip.

Similarly lacerated in this

She is cursed, as no such lovely

perate hunger to be an actress.
This leads her to the role of
temporary mistress of Louis
Jourdan, a philandering stage
director whose behaviour could
not be more reprehensible.
It also leads to one of the
years oldest symbolic scenes
which shows Miss Parker exit

Bluffton Merchants SAP in the

then the Beavers went into a
semi-stall, which was broken up
when a Harrod man was fouled.

Although a member of the con-

Another possibility is Leipsic,

are not so remote as Forest.
This is an application which

BY Chuck Hilty

The scanty gathering of fans
at Harmon field November 13
may have seen the last of For
est as a Northwest conference
football entry.
Upcoming merger of Forest
with the Wharton and Mt.
Blanchard school districts has
clouded the future for the NWC.
If completed by next fall, the
combined school district will
have it's choice of two leagues,
the NWC or the Hancock county
Little Eight.
Mt. Blanchard represented
the district in the Little Eight
this year and did about as good
a job as can be done, winning
the league title.
Given the choice of the two
leagues, it could well be that the
new district will choose the Han
cock county league. Transporta-
ton could be a major factor here.
Every Hancock county league
school is within 25 miles of the
new school, while they must
make jaunts of upwards of so
miles to play DelphoS Jefferson
and Spencerville.
The long distance could weigh
heavily in the eyes of other NWC
conference members. While re-
specting Forest as an opponent,
some schools, particularly on the
western fringe of the league, al
so are not happy with the long
trip to Forest.
Weighing against the new
schools entry in the Hancock
county league would be its size.
Nearly large enough to be class
AA, it would far outrank every
other school in the league, with
only Cory-Rawson anywhere near
its class.
The consolidation, in fact, may
be the thing which will save foot
ball for the Forest district. Strug-
Cling through this season with
only 16 players, they will lose
nine to graduation. 1t appears
unlikely that enough new pros
poets will develop in time for
next season if Forest were to go
it alone.

Early development could also
make them strong this year, par
ticularly later in the year.
Beaverdam 1-8) appears
to have been revived by their
new coach, Ron Hagaman.
More confident and aggres- &.
sive than they have been in
recent seasons, they have a
fairly suitable front line but
appear to face trouble from
their bench. Quick and pesky
Dwain Holt and Tom Bassitt
give spark to offense and de-
fense, while Bob Welch and
Gary Beck are both capable
of some big nights for the
Offense.
Lafayette (3-6), in and out for
most of last year, will have Dick
Fleming to lead the scoring and
rebounding. Problem will be
some ball handlers to replace the
likes of Errol Plate and others,
who so successfully torpedoed
Bluffton in the last tournament.
Missing all their starters ex-
cept Archie Rodgers, and minus
their clever coach Chuck Straus-
baugh, the Ada Bulldogs may be
in a rebuilding year. John Sabol,
John Amburgey and Frank Bad
ertscher and possibly Steve Hin
dali may turn into ball players
and bring Ada back to their nor
NAL level.
Although Harrod (5-4) gave
Beaverdam a rough time Friday
night they do not appear to have
the shooters, rebounders or bench
strength necessary to make much
of a show in the league this year.

His effort broke a Week-old
record set by Mick Mueller, who
hit a hot 663.
Sands started slowly with a
172, then loosened up with a 232
in his second game. The third
was a big 270, far and away the
highest game ever bowled at
Southgate.

Bearers Nip Har7'Od
On Late Buckets

Plagued by personal fouls, it
took Beaverdam 81 minutes to
deliver a knockout punch to the
Harrod Wildcats in a non-confer-
ence warmup game Friday night.
The 43-40 win was the third in
four starts for the Beavers.
Beaver rallies in the second,
third and fourth periods gave
them five point leads each time,
but in every quarter Harrod
came back to chew up this lead.
Leading 1888 with only a min
ute left and their top rebounder,
Bob Welch, sitting unhappily on
the bench, the Beavers struck
quickly on two Harrod turnovers.
Gary Beck jammed in a layup,
then Tom Bassitt added a push
shot and things were all over.
Welch played less than half
the game and netted only five
points after swinging elbows put
him in foul trouble in the second
period. Returned to the game in
the fourth quarter, he picked up
his fifth foul on what appeared
to be a clear block of Donnie
Piehl'S attempted hook shot.
Trailing early in the game,
Beaverdam came back to take a
14-11 lead at the end of the first
quarter. Harrod came whipping
back to take a 24-20 lead but
Beck and Bassitt each scored in
the last minute of the half to

Only Harrod and defending
