BERLIN POLICE DRILL? CAN’T BE SO-REDS DENY IT

THIS MUST BE A MIRAGE, these Soviet-zone Beilin police marching to an auditorium (background) to hear a lecture on blessings of Russian occupation, because the Rustl-ns say they aren't drilling any police—they don't have enough to drill, they say. Photographer Allyn Baum got the picture at great personal risk, "shooting’’ from window ol a blocked-off area In the Red zone. His evidence seems to bear out reports of "rpilitary drilling" of police as militia by the Russians. (1 nternational)

CROWD AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE CHEERS ROYAL BIRTH

A LONDON THRONG outside Buckingham pala.'c chn-rs at news of birth of a boy to Princess' Khzabeth Many of them had stood outside the palan for hours awaiting the announcement (International Radiophoto). |

In our opinion there were two ' factors that contributed to the 1 defeat of the Cubs. Coach Ton 1 Gold sherry’s boys allowed Bloomington too many set shots and Greencastle also missed

►

’ nineteen il9» attempts from the free throw line. The officiating wasn’t the best in the world, but

)

in a game like Friday’s encounter ,it is some times hard for a referee to look good, i Don’t misunderstand us, the j Panthers arc well-coached and l they will late with the better teams of Indiana during the current hardwood court campaign. The tilt opened rather cautiously and tho count was kno - ted at 4-4, 8-8 and 10-10 at the quarter. Led by Dobson Iff 23) the Panthers pulled into i 3-point edge at the half, 22 to

19.

The Cubs just couldn’t seem to hit. Dependable Stan Pierce even missed -i sleeper shot right under the east bucket during th” first half and no one on Greencastle’s side was making foul

tosses.

It was a gruelling struggle during the third period with Bloomington holding a 30 to 2<> advantage. Marketto connected for his, only field goal as the final quai-| ter got underway and it was 30I 28. Art Roberts went out on 1 personals. The Panthers ran the j count to 33-28. but Stan and Jim Pierce found the range to tie up I proceedings at 33-all. and Maij ketto dropped iii one of Gt;eenI castle’s few free throws and th ■ Cubs led, 34 to 33. Crandall hit ior Bloomington hut Jim Pierce knotted the score at 35-35. The Panthers took time out a.local fans iii th • packed gymnas- , iitm cheered noisily. The talk with their coach paid off as the visitors collected 8 more points while holding the Cubs to a lone basket by Stan Pierce and th • 1 game ended. 43 to 37 in favor of Bloomington. Defensive drill and long practice at the foul line should be Greencastle’s program next

week.
