BeaUerddm Opens Basketball Season
Saturday lUith Rugged CridersUille

A strong Cridersville club,
practically intact from last year.
meets Beaverdam Saturday eve
ming in the Beaverdam gymna-
sium in the opening game of the
area high school basketball sea-
son.
The Beavers, under the new
coach Ron Hagaman, will be
fighting to overcome the heritage
of a hard luck season last year.
They took several narrow defeats
in Northwest conference play, in
cluding a two point loss to Ada.
the eventual champions.
Five lettermen return from
last years squad and they should
carry the major share of the
load, particularly during the ear
ly games.
Biggest man on the squad is
6-3 Bob Welch, who may develop
into one of the NWC's stronger
inside men before tournament
time rolls around. Jim Lewis, a
six foot letterman, will join
Welch to provide whatever re-
bounding the Beavers develop.
Scoring punch will also be pro-
Vided by Gary Beck, who will be
working in his third year of var
sity ball. Lettermen Tom Bassitt
and Dwaine Holt will round out
the starting lineup.
Bassitt is 5-11, Beck is SO and
Holt is 5-8, so it appears that
Beaverdam will operate with one
of the areas smaller squadronS.
Holt, a junior, is the only under
classman.

also includes Larry Beemer, Tom

to let the Beavers score in two
plays. Weber smashed Is yards
on the first play, then Urich
passed % yards to Lora for the
score. Berry again kicked the
point, making the score 1910.
An interception of a Urich
pass finally halted the Beavers.
Three plays later Defiance had
seemingly turned it into a touch
down on a 80 yard reverse, but
the holding penalty brought the
ball out to the 25. Small stormed
on the field, was turned back by
his players, then broke away,
ripped off his coat and charged
the officials again. This brought
the red flag.
Defiance never threatened SER
iously again.
Bluffton added another score
in the third quarter after Larry
Hedden had picked off one of
Miller's passes. Seemingly stalled
on fourth down, the Beavers in

BIC Blasts Defiance
For 10Th MOL Win

One: Weber blasted over left
guard from the 16 yard marker,
climaxing a 78 yard four play
drive which started with the open
ing kickoff. Ron Hall had raced
So yards on the previous play to
set up the score. Jim Berry
kicked the extra point for a TO
lead.
Two: A weak Defiance punt
rolled dead on their own 40.
Berry hit Lora for 26 yards and a
first down on the first play from
scrimmage. Weber and Lape al
ternated to carry the ball in from
the IA in just six plays. BerryS
kick was wide, leaving the score
1870
Three: Jim Miller doomed a
fine punt 81 yards to BC's "a,
but Bluffton rolled back 66 yards
yards in eight plays. The big
gamer was a 35 yard pass from
Urich to Ted Clemens. Lape
danced II yards on a reverse to
the left for the touchdown. Berry
again missed the kick, but the
Beavers led 1910 at the end of
the first period.
Four: Starting from their own
81 after Defiance had stalled
again, the Beavers went 63 yards
in 10 plays. Lora dropped a sure
touchdown pass on the five yard
line, but Lape made up for it by
circling his left end for II yards
and touchdown on the next play.
He stumbled, but picked himself
up, slipped away from one tack
Ter and easily got away from the
rest fthe Yellowjackets. Berry
kicked the point, making the
score 26-0.

Still the same rock hard unit,
the Bluffton defense smothered
the Bulldogs in four straight
plays, taking over on their own
IA. Chuck Baber, Marshall, Jim
Burkholder and Don Deerhake
took tourns for the decisive
tackles.
Bluffton's first strong thrust
was a A yard pass which Burk-
holder rifled to Logan while twist
ing away from tacklerS on the
lip of his own goal, but a clip
ping penalty cost them all but
IA yards of the gain.
Grove lost an almost sure
touchdown when Darbyshire ov-
ershot Nichols after some fine
taking had drawn the Pirates de-
fensive backs almost to the line
Of scrimmage.
Kickers' Game
Neither team moved success
fully during the second half,
which developed into a battle of
punters. Marshall won this easi-
ly, getting off four kicks of so
yards or better and another 4S
yard boot. He averaged AS
yards for seven punts. Grove
punted nine times, but averaged
30.8 yards.
Denny Earl, Ted Lamb and
Joe Schmersal led the Columbus
Grove defense. John Soldan got
in his share of the humping for
the Pirates, as did Jim Burk-
holder and Jim Jordan. George
Burkholder' did one of his best
jobs of the season, as he comes
closer to meeting early expecta-
tionS.
Well played and well off
ciated, the game lived up to its

Pirates AUenge
Upset and Pound
Pandora $50

The big game of Bluff
toms 1880 season was their
match with Pandora, the
team that had spoiled their
unbeaten 1929 season with a
10 upset.
Pandora also had suffered
only one loss i'm two seasons
and the game was a natural
attraction for the entire area.
Business houses i'm BlufftOn
were closed the afternoon of
the game and the two teams
played before what was then
a record crowd of 1,60O.
The fast, dry field was per-
feet for the Pirates who took
full revenge for the previous
season by humping the Put
nam county crew $50.
BlufftOn led 300 at the end
of the first period and kept
pouring on the coal for the
remainder of the afternoon.
Triplehorn scored first on a
65 yard run, Griffith scored
after a pass interceptiOn by
Oden Alspach and Irwin
blocked a kick for a third
touchdown in the first quar-
ter.
Griffith scored three more
times and Triplehorn, Irwin
and Alspach counted once
each to complete the rout.

Beavers End
Season AT
Manchester

Fresh from 20 straight Mid
Ohio league triumphs, the Bluff
ton Beavers travel to Manchester
college next Saturday afternoon
for the closing game of the sea-
son.
I'VE reached the peak of our
season at Defiance" coach Ken
Mast beamed in reviewing the
surprisingly easy 400 victory.
Solid blocking and a quick
starting backfield led them to a
$50 margin before the Yellow
jackets had even made a first
down. Until the Bluffton inva-
sion Defiance had allowed only
46 points all season and had a
defensive record second to BCs
in league play.
Saturdays opponent, Manches
ter, has club very similar tc
the large, slow and rugged Spar
tan outfit which Bluffton defeated
24-0 last year.
Taylor university is the only
common opponent of the twc
\schools. BC defeated Taylor u
Ia in the season opener and Tay
lor turned back Manchester -!
last Saturday. The Spartans have
been the victim of several close
defeats.
Dave Palsgrove and Larry
Martin handled passing attacl
which gave Bluffton considerable
trouble last year, even though
the Spartans were held scoreless
They beat the Beavers in frs
downs 1913 and gained 254 yards
one of the top offensive displays
against the strong BC defense
which shut out six opponents.
If Bluffton plowS up another
early lead Mast will get a chance
to send in his underclaSsmen anc
inspect next years prospects
Losses from graduation will no
be too severe. Included will bt
four men who have had the un
usual distinction of never play
ing in a losing Mid-OIlio league
game in four years of college
Ez Springer, underrated center
Duke Snyder, Jim Berry and Rol
Lora are the lucky quartet.
Another chance for inspection
will come next Monday afternoon
when the Golden Bears" the
reserve unit, will tackle the Ohio
Northern jayvees in a practice
game at 3 p. m. on the college
field.
This will be part of the fea
ture of the college victory cele

their unprecedented four yea
sweep through the MOL.

Single Score Boosts GrOUe
OUer Pirates Into First Place

One defensive letdown cost the
Bluffton Pirates a probable
Northwest conference cham
pionship last Friday night when
Lynn Darbyshire sprinted Al
yards to give Columbus Grove a
go win over the Pirates.
1t was a game of breaks and
mistakes. Bluffton made more
mistakes and didn't take advan-
tage of their breaks. They lost
two fumbles and two pass inter-
ceptions while the Bulldogs new
er made a turnover.
A lightning exchange of breaks
in the second quarter led to the
Columbus Grove touchdown.
Dwight Nichols wobbled a weak
IL yard punt to the Bulldog 48,
giving Bluffton their first chance
to run the ball with some breath
ing room.
On the first play Larry Marsh
all fumbled and Jerry Tablel
bounced on the ball on the Col
umbus Grove 46.
They quickly pushed to a frs
down on the Pirate 39, then Bluff
ton stiffened. A Darbyshire pas!
went astray, then George Burk
holder broke through to spill tht
Grove ball carrier for an eigh
yard loss.

Migraine
Explained
o Vinegar

o. Would you please explain
migraine headache?-R.W.
A. Migraine headache is a special
kind of head pain which occurs
at more or less regular intervals.
In some persons the attack may
start with some type of transient
disturbance of vision. There may
be other warning symptoms such
as chills, sweating or dizziness.
The headache, often involving
only one side of the head, soon
follows and may be associated
with nausea and vomiting. The
neck and head muscles are often
tense and painful during and after
a migraine attack. The warning
symptoms are possibly due TO
construction of head arteries. The
headache itself is thought to
be produced by dilatation of the
vessels which stimulate nerves in
the vessel walls. Treatment pre-
Scribed by doctors is directed
toward preventing attacks through
use of drugs. At the present time
there is no completely effective
cure.

Washington after some years
of living and studying in
New York and Europe, he
has had two one-man shows
