Commodores Rally To Defeat Harlan Hawks Thurdsay Night, 66-59

It was Harlan's second lose of the season. The Commodores pushed their record to 12 victories and five defeats. Another balanced scoring attack coupled with some fine defensive play in the second half spelled the difference. The local boys held the sharp shooting Ronnie Smith of the Hawks to nine points. The Commodores got oft to a slow start staying behind the Hawks, all during the first stanza. The Wilder brothers kept the local boys in the game during the initial period. Joe Wilder scored the only Decatur field goal and Glen Wilder made four profitable shots from the free throw line. The quarter ended with Harlan on top, 15 to 9. During the first two minutes of the second quarter the Hawks added four markers to the lead but then the local team began to find the range from the field. They scored 14 points to Harlan’s 12 during that period and shaved their deficit to four points. The third quarter opened with a fast exchange of points and about midway Jerry Voglewede and Ron Meyer finally put through a couple of field goals to give the Commodores a one point advantage.

1956 Olympic Winter Gaines Are Underway CORTINA D’AMPEZZO, Italy—(lNS) — America’s Andrea Mead Lawrence was dethroned today as Olympic giant slalom queen as Uncle Sam’s gold medal effort storied falteringly on all fronts at Cortina. Ossi Reichert of Germany, first to push oft over the ladies’ giant slalom course, was also the winner In one minute, 56.5 seconds to join Veikko Hakulinen of Finland, victor in the men's 30-ktlometer cross-country ski, as the 1956 games first gold medalists. Mrs. Lawrence, 23-year-old Parshall, Colo., matron, who has become the mother of three children since her double victory In the 1952 games, finished in a fourth place tie with Madeleine Berthod of Switzerland behind two Austrian misses, Josefine Franl and Thea Hochleitner. The U. 8. hockey team was upset by Czechoslovakia, 4 to 3, in its initial test and the American two-man bobsleds were a disappointing fifth and sixth at the half-way point in that two-day competition. Despite a few snow flurries during the night, Cortina and the surrounding Alpine countryside remained starved for snow, and the ski runs were skimpily covered. “ Hakulinen sped across the finish line -first in the 30-kllometer race after leading for almost twothirds of the way over the thin, patchy snow of the gruelling cross-country course in the Dolomite' Alps which overhang Cortina. His time was one hour, 44 minutes and six-tenths seconds. U. 8. teams made a disappointing showing the first half of the two-man bobsled event Italian teams seemed to have the event all hut lockde up as they finished first and second on their first two runs down the treacherous hairpin-curved 1,700meter course. Two more runs will be made tomorrow. Waightman (Bud) Washbond of East Hartford, Conn., and his brakeman, Pat Biesiadecki of Ft. Jackson, S.C., after battling the Italians tooth and nail in practice time trials, slumped to fifth place in today’s efforts. The Italian crew of Umberto Dalia Costa and Giacomo Conti staged a mild surprise of its own by taking a slim advantage over their favored countrymen, Eu-
