The young couple / have in
mind live quite far from here
or / could ease their minds and
probably patch up a rift in their
relations with Alice's mother
and her stepfather.
Alice, an only child has lived
with her parents from birth until
a year ago when she and her hus-
band moved out because-but, =
am ahead Of my story.
After Alice's father passed away
she and her husband decided theS
would move out Of her mothers
home and get a small apartment.
That left Mrs. Smith alone In the
quite large house, but she said
nothing. All she wanted was their
happiness. Alice felt a twinge Of
regret because she and Tom had
lived there 30 many years while
her father lived, and now when
her mother might need her she
was leaving. However, you really
cannot put old heads on young
shoulders, and the couple did feel
they would be a little freer In a
home Of their own and every fam
lily should have the right to live
alone. <..
Mrs. Smith lived alone for about
three years and one day she calm
ly told Alice and Tom that she
was getting married again.
You would have thought q bomb
had exploded right there In the
house. They told her the man was
after her house, that she was too
old to remarry and Alice said her
mother should think Of her and
give her what was her fathers and
not give II to a total stranger. Mrs.
Smith was hurt but being q moth
er, she realized they were angry
words 10 she said nothing.
Neither Alice nor Tom went to
the quiet wedding, and it was some
weeks before they went to see
Mrs. smith-Brown and her hus-
band.
They had not realized their moth
er was or had been a very lonely
person. An they had thought Of
was their own personal loss. Mother
and her fiance' had talked their
business problems over and before
they were married each had made
wills and left an Of their personal
and all other property to Alice and
Tom. To Alice's surprise about
this time her mother and step
father moved into his home which
was 30 much nicer than Mrs.
Smiths home. They had said moth
ing about it to Alice and Tom be-
cause they were making their
visits to the bride and groom very
few and far between.
Alice was 20 happy for hef
mother because for once she was
not thinking Of herself. How can
anyone be looking" for something
that belongs to others? Who knows
which one win out live the other?
It il sad and stupid for children
or anyone else to be 90 small and
narrow minded that they can only
see what they hope to GET.
Treat your parents, relatives and
friends kindly and forget about
the future. II win take care Of
itself, and If 1t IL for you to have
what you want-you win get 1t.
Tom and Alice really feel guilty
every time they go see her mother
and step-father. Mrs. Brown, q
good mother, has forgiven them
and IL happy they are on friendly
terms. That is all she asks. Hap
piness Is everything anyone should
desire. If you are happy you can
do many things.

Beaverdam Rated Slight Favorite
For NWC Kickoff With Lafayette
W DIVISION OF WILDuFE

Beaverdam, a pleasant sur
prise in early weeks of the sea-
son, tests its Northwest confer
ence hopes Friday at Lafayette
in the opening week of the North
west conference season.
Based on earlier efforts, the
Beavers, are rated a slight
favorite.
Favored or not, their success
will rest in large measure on
their ability to control Lafay-
cites muscular Dick Fleming.
The 6-3 senior is entering his
third year of varsity play and is
expected to be the key to the
Wolves efforts this year. Always
a strong rebounder, he will prob
ably be one of the leagues bet
ter scorers, particularly if the
Lafayette attack is diversified
enough to keep defenses from
putting all their pressure on him.
Beaverdam has shown a well
balanced club. Every member of
their starting five has hit in
double figures at least once this
year. They have some size in
Bob Welch and Jim Lewis and
they have three scrappy small
men in Gary Beck, Dwaine Holt
and Tom BaSsitt.
A lack of bench strength may
hurt the Beavers, particularly if
their big five run into trouble.
Beaverdam will be shooting for
an improvement over last year S
last place finish, when they won
only one of nine in the North
west conference. Dogged by bad
luck, they lost to NWC champion
Ada by two points and lost to
county champ Delphos Jeff by
one point in overtime. Lafayette,
IL this year, was 3-6 in the
league last year.

ANYTHING POSSIBLE

When a convention of sales
men failed to take seriously the
exhortationS of the late John Pat
terson, head of National Cash
Register, the December Readers
Digest reports, he told them to
return to the small hall for lunch
the next day. When they did, they
found only bed of geraniums.
"You see, gentlemen" said Pat
terson, anything can be done. "
He had employed a small army
of workmen to demolish the build
ing and landscape the site over
night.

son, meeting Elida, DelphOs
jefferson and SpencerviIle
during the first three weeks.
Rudy Steiner, counted on to
lead the rebounders, is still only
a part time operator. A football
injury to his back has healed
very slowly. Coach Joe Harris
will rest him frequently, using
6-3 John Soldan, an inexperi-
enced but willing sophomore as
his substitute.
Dave Bash, impressive in pre-
season scrimmages, hurt his knee
in a Thanksgiving Day automo-
bile crash and still hasn't re-
covered completely. Seventh man
on the squad last year, Bash'S
shooting had improved consider
ably and Harris had counted on
him to be a starter.
On the brighter side has been
the work of 6-1 Chuck Baber,
probably the most improved play
er on the team. While Steiner
operates at half speed, Baber
will be forced to carry more than
his share on the backboards. Al

Pirates Entertain Hard Running EIida
In Home Conference Opener Friday Night

Opening of the Northwest con-
ference season Friday night will
find the Bluffton Pirates, still a
mystery, matched with the Elida
bulldogs, a club which may rise
fast this season.
Small and scrappy, the Bull
dogs are mostly juniors. Sweep
ing through the NWC without a
loss, they won the conference
freshman title two years ago.
Ragged and off their form, they
lost their opener to an improved
Columbus Grove 44-42, then
bounced back to whip Shawnee
1886 last Friday.
Their key man is guard Rog-
er Bowers, who scored "a points
in the upset of Shawnee last Fri
day. His absence during part of
the Columbus Grove game may
have cost Elida that game.
Injuries may hamper the
Pirates, who need a win to
start a solid foundation for
their Northwest conference
year. They face some of their
worst trouble early i'm the sea-

Two Mid-OhiO Games in First Week Will
Expose Bluffton's Prospects for Season

Bolstered by good freshmen,
sprinkled around a core of four
solid veterans, the Bluffton Bea-
vers may stand on the thresh-
old of their first good basketball
season in several years.
A real measure of their hope
in the Mid-Ohio league will come
within the first five days of the
season when they meet Ashland,
then Defiance.
Ashland comes to Founders
hall for Blufftons home opener
Saturday night. Next Wednesday
they play at Defiance. Both clubs
are solid with speedy, experienc-
ed men from last years clubs
and Defiance has finished 1-2-3
in the league for the past four
years.
Digger IMAM 1uSdI
For the first time in several
seasons the Beavers will have a
few players capable of looking
down on their opponents. Wayne
Dickson and Terry Inskeep, both
freshmen, hit GA and Mast plans
to work one of them into the
starting lineup.
The other starters will be Harv
Porter, Milt Lee, Able Mast and
Larry Hedden, all regulars last
year. Hedden, who worked as a
forward last year, has been NOV
ed out to the back court with
Mast. He replaces little deadeye
Ron Kalb, the only regular miss.
ing from last year.
Able Mast, who led the Bea-
vers in scoring last year with
356 points "a 17.8 average)
should be ready for his finest
season. He may finally be able
to win the all-league honors which
have eluded him previously.
The aggressive Hedden was the
third scorer on BCs club last
year, hitting 268 points for an av-
erage of 14.1 per game. Lee av-
eraged rs per game last year
and Porter, a defensive special
ist, averaged &c.
Eros Look Good
Five or six promising fresh
men are on hand. The rebounding
strength promised by Dickson
and/or Inskeep looms biggest in
MaSt's eyes, but he also has been
charmed by Bill Wolfinger, Phil
HorriSberger and Willie Stemen.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1959-12-03

so improved is Don Deerhake,
who has hustled into strong con-
tention for a regular job.
Buck Schiffke and George
Burkholder, who started last
year, are expected to join Baber,
Steiner and either Bash or Deer
hake in the starting lineup.
Ken Logan, one of the highest
scorers on the reserve squad last
year, also will see varsity action.
Also dressing for varsity games
will be Jim Swank and juniors
Tony Travis and Ron Michel,
both of whom will benefit from
experience.
Big But Green
The Pirates will have consid-
cradle size this year, but their
four tallest men will need consid-
cradle experience before stepping
into regular roles. Travis is 6-412,
Soldan is 6-3 II, Cal Oppermann
is 6-3 and Steve Basinger 6-2.
Travis is a junior, the others
Sophomores.
Baber and Steiner at 6-1 are
the tallest regulars.
Harris said he expects to alter
this years defensive alignment
in favor of more man, to man
work.
On this years roster are: sem
iors, Bash, Baber, Deerhake,
Burkholder, Schiffke, Swank and
Logan; juniors, Steiner, Travis,
Michel and Chuck NiSwander;
sophomores, Soldan, Basinger,
Opperman, Larry Marshall, Ray
Ruggley, Larry Dillman, Chuck
Amstutz and Keith Klingler.

win in the reserve game.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1959-12-03

Another possibility is hard
driving Chuck Carman, who
starred at Harrod high school the
last three seasons. He was at
first ruled ineligible after mid
term. The Beavers are now wait
ing a league ruling on whether
they might use Carman.
When it appeared that Carman
was ineligible he entered indus
trial basketball for the winter,
but after the scholastic eligibil-
ity problem was cleared up the
case was referred to the league
for a final decision. League rules
ordinarily prohibit a player from
participating in industrial backet-
ball until the regular season is
over.
Jim Berry, former Bluffton Pi-
rate VINO spent three years in
Lima's tough Major league, may
be with the Beavers this year.
Mast hopes his ball handling skill
and ability to connect with the
long shots over a zone will be
available to the Beavers all sea-
son.
Findlay Favored
Findlay is a powerful pre-sea-
son favorite to re-capture the IL
tie they won last year. Runnerup
Wilmington lost practically ev-
erything, but an influx of tall,
new men could push them right
back to the top.
Ohio Northern has their entire
starting five back and this may
be the season when the Polar
Bears climb back to the head of
the ranks after so many seasons
in arrears. Defiance and Ashland
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1959-12-03

are both far from out of it. The
only thing which seems certain
is that perennially punchless Ce-
darville will finish in the base
ment.
The Bluffton picture? The
coach views it with mild opti-
mism. The combination of size
and experience could boost Be
well above 500 unless the woes
of injury, ineligibility or ienxpe-
rience crop up.
Last season the Beavers were
fourth in the MOL with a Go
mark and posted an lilo season
record.
