V UIHIJC THOUGHT FOR TODAY

Final arrangements are being oomplet l for the basketball game to bo held in the local high school gym Wednesday evening under the sponsorship of Post 58 of the American Legion to stimulate the sale of National Defense Savings Stamps. Don Frazier, '.former Tiger Cub all-state star, has lined up an impressive group if former Greencastle high sc-hi 1 players to meet an equally fine team composed of stars graduated from high schools in tae county. Listed among the starters to represent Grv ncastle will be Raymond York, Hen Hanlon, Don Frazier, Charles Conklin, Howard Bu : s, Joe Ellis and Harold “Bomber” Coffman. The team to represent the county will be composed of former stars Bob and Pete Michael from Bainbridge, Bob Cash and Vernon Zeinor from Fillmore, “Curly” Williams from Cloverdale, and Bob Scobee from Reelsville. Several more names will be added to both squads and Putnam net fans are certain to have old memories refreshed We 1msday evening when these two outfits clash. Considerable interest in the game is being worked up among the larger industrial firms of the countv, several of whom are expected to have large delegations present to represent their firms. Since admission to the game is by the purchase at the ticket window of a Xational Defense Savings Stamp of any size, the stamp to remain the property of the purchaser, there has been quite a bit of friendly rivalry between the larger firms to win the honor of having the greatest number of their organization in attendance. The Greencastle high school band under the direction of Gene Pennington will present a thirty minute 9< ncert before the game and during the rest intermission period. The 'band concert is scheduled to start at 7:30 p. m.
