In the absence of Mary Easiey the vice president, Grace Arnold, presided. The meeting was called to order and all joined in giving the pledge to the flag. Roll call was answered by naming famous people born in the month of November Mrs. Emma Shepherd gave appropriate devotions pertaining to the month of November. One new member, Stella Fitzvvater, was added to the group. The program was put on by Mrs. Bee. Putnam county nurse. She first gave a letailed account of how our Red Cross donations are spent. Approximately half of our donations are spent in th ? county for various good causes including their blood program, work in school of county, first aid classes. Junior Red Cross, swimming classes for children. Christmas boxes sent to service men and veterans hospitals and a great portion goes to service men when adverse situations arise in their homes. Mrs. Bee also showed a film. ‘ Red Cros.-, Report” showing the different ways Red Croas aids the common ailments of humanity. The program was illuminating and all got a new insight to the good accomplished by this great organization. The meeting closed by repeat-

rank behind Sehrier, and Bob Pierce, a 100-point producer. Both were guards. Because Sehrier is the only returning player who posted a double-figure average last season. Luther’s main problem will be to develop additional scoring punch. Contending for a forward berth are junior Dick Loercher, sophomores Ernie Modzelewski and Tom Johnson, and freshman Bob Knott, Dale; Mike Henderson, Indianapolis Cathedral; and Bing Davis, Dayton, O. In the pivot, the 6'4” Ulmer and 6’3” McCracken have an edge in experience, but they are outsized by sophomore Dave McKeag, 6‘8; freshman Bob Stewart, Speedway, 6'8; and freshman Chuck Cleaver, Oregon, 111., 6'6. Bunnell, last season’s only freshman award-winner, looks like a good bet at guard, where other candidates are sophomores Frank Estes, Ron Fox, Joe Lawlor, and Morrie Goodnight. Freshmen involved in the battle for one of the guard positions are Carl Meditch, Indianapolis Tech, and Larry Bielle*\ Dupo, 111. The first-string quarterback on DePauw’s football squad, Goodnight, reported for basketball only this week. He saw considerable action during the last half of the 1954-55 campaign.

CARD OF THAN KS I wish to express my thanks to all my relatives, neighbors and fr iends for the car ds and flowers sent me during my stay in the hospital. Also my sincere thanks to my neighbors and friends who picked my corn, also the doctors, nurses and nurse aids for the kind service. Everett Cur ran p.

FAIRLY SPOKEN Raucous Alarms Make Best Morning Starts Bv Margaret Latrobe Few of us can extend indefinitely the hour of rising. Depending on the demands of the day ahead, the eventual hour is sure to strike. And when it does, give me a good loud raucous alarm clock as herald of the morn. Not one of these muted Strauss waltzes tinkling from dime-sized wrist watches on legs. The act of getting up, I say, bears little or no relation to facing the day’s toil. Whether one is wakened by chirping snow birds or shrieking traffic noise, whether one looks forward eagerly of another day or knows damn well it will be just another 12 hours to be got through the business of rising, I repeat, is a separate and grim entity. I have the fortunate turn of mind which enables me to believe that with the next cockcrow, something wonderful will happen. I am the original schnook who believes in uranium strikes, secret compartments and rich uncles. Each new day is met with the conviction that the mailman will deliver that all important letter. But this is after I grope for the coffee and lipstick. Not first off. The initial consciousness that horizontal position must instantly become vertical, oatmeal is scorching and a fight over the kids’ toothbrushes is in progress finds me inclined to invent a broken leg, heavy cold, blinding headache- - anything to stay abed. And I want no sweet music from self-starting contraptions making out like getting up is fun, fun, fun. Let the alarm be hideously irritating. Let it be out of reach, incessant in its cacophony. Let it have the stridency of Wagner and Beethoven. At six ayem, Debussy is just plain hypocritical. The alarm which buzzes like a covey of horse flies, which rattles like

costorets, which honks like our -re 'i.'sn. w/J.-h is d*-srr-vJ by electron! g : : 2^ tl.ut .tr fui v is .r.:j t I. . • ■ shut off this is the samm< ns I desiie at dawn. Not the soto voce strains of a sehottisehe. Alarm clocks are akin to ticht shs-es, pleasanter when off. And th? louder and more shattering the sound, the better the prospect for a good day. At least, that’s how I account for optimism setting in as the sun steepens its climb. ROACHDALE FFA CHAl’TEK The Rnachdale Chapter of Future Farmers held a joint meet at the Franklin Township Farm Bureau Nov. 8, at 6:30 p. m.
