It is said that the American people squander seven billion dollars a year on games of chance. And, mind you, this doesn’t include weddings, starting up in business, and holding elections. The Creator made us with two ends—one on which to sit, the other with which to think. Our success depends upon which end we use most. Heads we win, tails we lose!

SPEEDWAY CAPTURES TOURNAMENT TILT A determined Speedway team traveled to Plainfield on Dec. 31 to participate in the four team invitational tourney and ended the 1947 year by adding another

sports trophy to those already won by the Sparkplug teams. The opening game in the afternoon was played between the Mooresville Pioneers and '* the Monrovia Bulldogs. Monrovia’s hard-fighting, fast-moving quintet was able to hold Mooresville’s usually high-scoring team down to a minimum in a thrilling game by a score of 24-21. The second afternoon game featured the Plainfield Quakers against our Brown and Gold. Speedway’s Sparkplugs held the lead throughout the entire game and the times the Quakers Challenged that lead were few. Konnie King and Bill Roberts, substitute guard, were the Sparkplugs high point men , scoring 9 points each as Speedway won 41-34. The consolation game played between Plainfield and Mooresville proved to be nothing more than a shooting practice as both teams rolled out their “little red wagons” and became red hot. But Mooresville proved to be the better shot and won 65-42. In the championship game, both Speedway and Monrovia seemed to be a little tired, but “little the worse for wear.” Despite the fact that Pryor was the only member of Monrovia’s team to score during the first period, the Bulldogs were behind only 8-7 at the quarter. The Green and White scored 11 points in the second stanza against 7 for S.H.S. to be in possession of a 18-15 half-time lead. The Sparkplug backers 5 had begun to worry during intermission, but as the , third quarter opened, it seemed as though the Speedway quintet had received a “shot in the arm,” scoring two points more in this quarter than in the entire first half while holding Monrovia’s Green and White down to 2 buckets and 2. free throws. The Sparkplugs continued the pace set in the third quarter, and finally subdued Monrovia’s fighting five 42-31. Konnie King, who had led the year’s scoring, poured 8 field goals through the hoop for this season's record. Health Director Urges Citizens to Fly-Proof in 1948 anapolis to leiolve io fiy-inwif

Butler To Play Wabash College Probable Starting Lineups: . Wabash Batter Gene ClonesF— Jerry Cranny Robert RisleyF Ralph O’Brien Ronald Gescheidler CJohn Barroweliff Robert' Hutchins G Charles Maas John Houston G' James Doyle Tlp-o.T: 8:15 p.m. Officiate—Referee: Dean Malaska; Umpire: Herb Edwards. Butler University’s Bulldogs will be trying to run their Indiana Intercollegiate Conference wins to three in a row when they entertain Wabash’s Little Giants Saturday night (Jan. 10) in the fieldhouse. So far this season the Bulldogs have won 1.1. C. games from Canterbury and St Joseph’s College as well as downing Indiana University and Purdue in the first Hoosier -Collegiate Basketball Classic. In the other games played till now the Bulldogs have lost to Northwestern and Wisconsin. One of the most important games of the season was to be played Wednesday night against Notre Dame’s Irish in South Bend. The Little Giants have ” won three and lost four games so far this season and had one to play against Franklin Wednesday night (Jan. 7). Their first loss of the season was to St. Joseph’s, one of the teams downed by Butler. Wabash’s newly acquired coach, William S. Johnson, is another advocate of the fast break style of offense and had eight returning lettermen around which to build his first Caveman team. Coach Johnson has incorporated five of them into his probable starting lineup.

The entire Wabash starting lineup is composed of sophomores who average around the 6 foot mark. The first six games played by the Wabash team failed to show any outstanding scoring stars, but three of the men scored' over 50 points. Gene Clones, Roachdale, and Boh Risley, Indianapolis, lead the list with 59

Coach Paul “Tony” Hinkle is expected to use his standard lineup of forwards Jerry Cranny and Ralph '“Buckshot” O’Brien, center John Barrowcliff, and guards Jim Doyle and Charles Maas. All are from Indianapolis except Barrowcliff who hails from Spencer. Last season the Bulldogs downed Wabash 53-40 at Wabash and 63 to 49 in the fieldhouse. Clones and Houston were the leading scorers for Wabash in the two games with 22 and 25 points respectively. Cranny and O’Brien led the Butler attacks during the two contests with 23 and 21 points apiece.

The New Year By VIOLET PHELPS The New Year has dawned upon us, Now we wonder, as of yore, What another year may bring forth; Just what it has in store. It's well, that tiie all wise Father Keeps from us all His plans, Since He knows all about us, The very thought of each man. It must be, because we’re human, That we stumble and falter alone. Yet He so plainly tells us, He will not forsake His own. Since we have one to guide us Why should we fear the way? He is so ready to help us, If we but trust, and obey. God has forgiven our past failures Let us start the New Year anew, With hope, and courage, say to the Master—- “ Lord . . . what thou have me to do?” Grotto Auxiliary Installs New Officers Mrs. Goldie Saylor was installed as president of Sahara Grotto Auxiliary in. public ceremonies, Jan. 8, at the Grotto Auditorium, 4107 E.
