H-SC Tigers Yield To Sewanee
Plays VIM Saturday On Dads Day

AgneW tossed one more to end
Joe Britain for I'd. Again the
kick for the point was good and
the Purple Tigers pulled away by
a margin of 1913. The final score
for SeWanee came in the last
period when. again driving off
passes, they reached the H-SC 5.
AgneW took it across and the kick
was once more good. Then the
Tigers got things going with
drive starting on their own 80,
land they kept the ball all the
way down field, making first
downs and shaking loose receiv-
ers for passes until OBJ Stuart
Shelton drove across on the OBJ
sneak. A passing attempt for the
extra point failed and the game
ended: Sewanee 81, HIS 9.
The Saturday the Tigers en-
terrain the powerful Western
Maryland squad. Last year the
Tigers appended the Northerners
1912. This season will find them
at Death Valley on Dads Day
doing all they can to ruin the
festivities by giving the Tigers a
beating. The Marylanders have
plenty of power and talent. and
will be coming fresh from a VIC
tory over Randolph Macon. The
Tigers are preparing warm re-
ception for their Northern foes
and are hoping that they can
make it even a little too hot for
them.

The citizens of Virginia inher-

sources. Through the years, the
soils and waters. forest and wild
life of this State have yielded
abundantly.
I'VE cannot afford to misuse

and management of these re
sources rs essential to the health,
welfare and happiness of every
citizen Of this Commonwealth.
Our food. fiber. and shelter are
products of these resources and
our total Well-being is dependent
upon them Since the natural re-

After dropping two games in a
row by a 7-6 score. Buckingham
is still looking on the bright side
of football. The Buccaneers have
been plagued this season by in
juries and sickness. The latest
sickness has been an epidemic of
flu. Coach Charles Gilley had to
miss the Farmville game him
self Friday night as he was laid
up with the FLU bug" and DR..
Pennington wouldn't let him out
even for the game.
On the bright side. Coach Gilley
has uncovered one Of the niftiest
passers in the district. Bobby
Lindsey weighs only las pounds
and stands 5-l0", but his preci-
sion throwing has been the envy
of the district.
Now that the BUGS have little
game experience, they have earn
ed the title of the Most I'm
proved Team in the District"
Against Farmville, Gilley I'M
leased an unexpected running at
tack, spearheaded by Larry Rear
don, Dickie Davis and Lawrence
Newton. Fighting the injury jinx,
Newton was shifted to halfback
to replace Percy Banton who has
been out since the opening game
Of the season.
Newton is one of our top line
men," Gilley said, but we need
ed his power in the backfield,
after Banton was injured. New
ton weighs only 16O pounds, but
along with Dickie Davis, who is
also a 100 FOUNDER, he is the big
gest man in the backfield.
Larry Reardon. who picked up
over 100 yards on the ground
against Farmville. is only $50
pounds, but he is the fastest man
on the squad and runs for that
extra yardage.
Gilley hopes to have Banton
back in action against Park View
this week. Banton is one of tie
Buccaneer tri-captains along with
Lindsey and Garland Station, an
end.
Station is a rangy l65 FOUNDER,
who is a favorite target Of Lind
sey. He plays rugged game on
the defensive side also. Playing
the opposite end is Mike Dun
can, weighing a scant l4O pounds.
He plays the TANKER end, or lone
some end as Coach Gilley calls
him.
Tackles are mighty scarce on
the Buckingham team. Newton
will go back to this important post
as soon as Banton gets back in
action. Playing with Newton are
Jerry Daniels. J. c. Whoram and
Clinton Heath. Whoram is the
biggest man on the squad at 1870
pounds, but he has been out with
injuries most Of the season, see
ing only limited action.
We've got a fine pair Of
guards" Gilley said proudly
This is the key to our offense,
as we frequently pull our guards.
Both of the boys are small, but
fast and aggressive. David Fulch-
er, junior. is only a 1877 pound
err, while David Seay is a $50
pound sophomore.
Gerald Stinson is a steady per-
former at center. He has been
nursing a bad thumb and in
jured ankle since the first of the

Dog Racing to Be Highly Competitive For 1962 Season

Alaska's greatest outdoor spec tator sport, dog mushing, is slated this year to produce one of the most fierccly competitive and most exciting seasons in ncrth- land racing history. And the fun won't be limited to Alaskans. Many an out-of-state visitor will line the trails as his favorite parka-clad driver commands, "Mush you Huskies" to a team Of charging, eager, yelping race dogs.
 One of the "grand old names" of mushing is the Alaska Dog Mushers Assn, Inc, of Fairbanks. Sponsors of the North American Championship Sled Dog Derby, the association has announced March IS through 25 as inc dates for the 17th annual running of this snowtrail classic.
 For the drivers, a strong lure of the competition will be $15, ,0OO in prizes, a purse which guar antees participation by crack teams and drivers, not only from Alaska but from Canada and the "south 49' states as well.
 More exciting to the spectator than the money, however, is the lure of the racing itself, the op- portunity to see men and animals in action, perpetuating Alaska's hardest sport. Particularly color ful and like a page out of Jack London or Rex Beach -- are the Eskimo and Indian racers and their families together with their dogs, sleds, and other gear.
 More than 400 dogs raced in the 1861 championships.
 A final lure to the north, if one is needed, is the scheduling of Fairbanks annual Winter Carnival during the same period After-the- races carnival activities will in- { cifude dance, torchlight parade fireworks, Hans Brjnker race, the Miss Alaska Miss Universe pag. cant, and dozens of other activi ties.
 Prior SN sthe Derby and the Win ter Carnival, the fiitiissE ssESerS aSso- citation has Escheduled pre1hnin. ary races fo. Jarl>osi, IA, and 28 Feb. I, and March A. Similar races during ' 2 :sssiary thru March will also be held at Anchor Point Anchorage, Homer, Kenai, Nome, Tanana, and Tok.

VictOria's Bell Returned After Ten Year Absence

The 91-year-old Victoria bell returned to Seattle recently after an absence of nearly ten years.
 Those were quiet years for this bell that has sounded out the watches during the historic life time of the "Old Vic" while she rushed troops to the relief of Gen. Chinese Gordon in Africa while carrying men and mules in support of the Spanish American War in the Philippines E. while hustling thousands of prospectors to the Klondike :. and while helping keep Alaska supplied for over half a century and during two world wars.
 The decade of silence for the old bell was not her choice. Her tongue was inuted while she was |enshrined aboard the Cunard Liner Parthia. And any belle that can't talk is apt to be bit sulky, particularly when, like the Old Vic bell, she has so much to peal about.
 Sheer resentment was rropably the reason the bell broke loose from her hanger while being ship ped back here from Liverpool, ," said Sid Hayman, manager of the service department of the Alaska Steamship Go, said But she will ring again before she is present. ed to the Seattle Historical So- ciety," he promised. Our shops will see to that"
 The Cunard Steamship Co. re- turned the bell at the request of D. E. Skinner, president of Alas ka Steam He had given it to Cunard in 1852 for a special mem orial aboard their Parthia, built in 1948, since the Victoria was the first Cunard liner to bear the name "Parthia.''
 The Victoria was launched the
 Parthia in 1870 at Dunbarton on. the-C Clyde by w. Denny & Co. She
 was at first a crack Atlantic linel
 on the London-New York run
 Schooner rigged, she boasted
 new dfiechanical marvel. a com pound engine with shaft tha1 could be disconnected to idle the prorelleTs when there was good wind.
 Like her owners, the Victoria engines and rigging changed sev- eral times as did her routes. She served far and wide, Great Britain to Australia, South America to Singapore.
 In 1887 the Victoria came out of Vancouver, BIC. to become the first Canadian Pacific liner. She entered the Alaska trade in 1900 and became a unit of the Alaska Stearnpship Go. fleet in 1908.
 After having been laid up for several years, the Victoria pas senger accommodations were re- moved and she came out in 1940 as strictly cargo carrier to help for the last time in war effort. She was decommissioned finally in 1852.
 But the Old Vic whistle still an- nounces arrivals and sailings here and along Alaslxa's coast, not of the Vic, of course, but of the Alaska Line steampship Iliamna to which it was transferred.
 Before we turn the bell over to the Historical Society, we should have one final jam session with the Victoria bell and
