Butler University With two losses under their belts, Butler University’s basketball Bulldogs will seek their first win this week as they face Michigan in Ann Arbor Wednesday night (Dec. 14) and Wabash Saturday night (Dec. 17) in the fieldhouse. If the Bulldogs can maintain their .431 field goal shooting average and at the same time improve their weak .532 free throw average in the two games, they should be able to bring their win-loss record back to an even keel this week. Wednesday will be a busy day for the Bulldogs, since they plan to fly to Ann Arbor during the afternoon, play the game that night, and be back in Indianapolis in time for Thursday classes. The Wolverines will be the third Western Conference opponent in a row for the Bulldogs. In their opening games, Coach Hinkle’s men lost to Illinois, 60-56, and to Ohio State, 65-67. Both of their losses were due largely to the fact that they have missed 29 of their 62 chances at the charity stripe. In racking up a 63-36 win over Rose Poly last Saturday night, the Cavemen showed sparkling team balance with all 13 of the players who saw action scoring at least once from the field. The Cavemen’s win brought their season’s record to two wins and one loss. As compared to Wabash’s scoring balance, Butler’s load has been carried so far this season by Jimmy Doyle and Ralph “Buckshot” O’Brien, a pair of three-year veteran guards. O’Brien is currently sporting a 26 point game scoring average with 52 markers in two contests. He is hitting at a .513 clip from the field and .750 from the free throw line. Doyle, who has been regarded as Butler’s defensive ace up until this season, has racked up 23 points in two games for second place in the Bulldog scoring list.

Hinkle has been unable to find sufficient support for his pair of senior guards. He has shuffled his players in and out of the contests around the pair and found little help. Wabash’s Coach Bill Johnson has been switching his starting lineup from game to game. Saturday night he is expected to use Gene Clones and Ron Gescheidler at forward, Argyle Jackson at center, and Bob Risley and John Houston at guard. All are lettermen and seniors. The Butler-Wabash rivalry is one of the oldest hardwood series in the state. Dating from 1898, the two schools have clashed in 67 basketball contests. Butler has won 42 and the Cavemen 25. The Wabash crew’s recent victory was a 46-31 upset in Crawfordsville during the 1947-8 season. Coach Hinkle is expected to stick to his starting lineup of W. W. O’Brien Dee Baker, forwards; Ralph Chapman, center; and Jim Doyle and Ralph O’Brien guards; for both contests.

Early Dyemakers Dyes of vegetable origin were used almost exclusively by primitive man. They were obtained in the vicinity, with the dyer merely collecting dye plants and roots in nearby fields or forests and boiling them in water. The range of color was very narrow, being confined to red, blue, yellow, green, brown and black. Variants in shades were quite limited. Firm Income Net income from farming to all persons on farms increased again in 1948. However, the prices farmers had to pay for family living and maintenance were the highest on record; and, in terms of what it would buy, net income from farming for all persons living on farms was the lowest since 1941.

Salvation Army Places ‘Kettles’ Familiar tripods and kettles of The Salvation Army have made their appearances on the streets of Indianapolis. This is one of the city’s oldest Christmas traditions, and dates back to the “gay 90s” when the Salvation Army arranged its first annual Christmas Basket distribution to the poor of the city. Needs are still great, and with the increased cost of food it is necessary to pay much more this year, so that the financial goal needs to be increased. A feature of the Christmas activities for the past 18 years has been a Children’s Party in the State Capitol, co-sponsored by the Governor. The army workers are welcome visitors at the various hospitals and institutions in the county, with candy, fruit and other remembrances at the Christmas season. Last year, $4,905.66 was given in the kettles, but this year $5,000 is the goal, which is supplemented by gifts from army friends. The old Salvation Army slogan: “Meeting the need, at the time of need, at the place of need” is still the keynote of its activities. Contributions may be sent to: The Salvation Army Christmas Fund, 234 E. Michigan St., Indianapolis 4. As long as man is willing to pay more to be amused than instructed, he offers the most weighty proof of his simian kinship.

A Dolly For Christmas He wanted a dolly for Christmas Some . . . thought it a terrible thing For surely there were other gifts For a boy that Santa could bring. But some how ... some way ... Santa Claus knew * That a doll would not harm the lad So among the balls and drums and such Was a dear little doll for the tad! He opened his packages carefully And he seemed... so bs searching in vain And into his dear little baby eyes You could vision a glimpse of pain— Until he spied a too . . . periling out. Of a package beribboned in blue He seized the wrapper and tore it right off And he hugged that dolly in two! Daddy looked in surprise at Mother Whose eyes were a woe bit dim As she thought of how unhappy he’d be If there hadn’t been . « . a dolly , for him! Anna E.
