Quarterbackers to See Controversial Interception

GREENCASTLE'S PEE WEE FOOTBALL TEAM

NOTICE

Basketball fans! Season tickets and reserve seats go on sale Thursday for the nine game Cub home schedule. Reserve seats and season ticket combination can be purchased at the high school in the principal’s office only. Season tickets will be on sale Thursday at all schools and at Donelson’s Pharmacy. Reserve ticekt—$2. Adult Season tickets—$5.

Evidence that DePauw coach Tom Mont says will support DePauw's claim on a controversial interception in the Butler game will be presented to the court—The Greencastle Quarterback Club—in its final session tomorrow night. Quarterbacks, closing their season with a 6:30 p.m. dinner at the Union Building, are slated to hear Mont and Greencastle High School coach Jerry Chance. Both head coaches will address Quarterbacks and their wives and Mont, in an added attraction, will discuss what he calls “Butler's Tinkers to Evers to Chance" interception in the final 78 seconds.

The aerial pilfer stopped a DePauw drive on the Butler 12 with the Tigers trailing, 14-8. He will offer visual aids—films from the game—to demonstrate ! to the jury of experts the validity of his argument. The Tiger Cubs, like the Quarterbacks, close their season Friday night at Clinton High School. DePauw still haa a pair of home dates including Saturday’s Dads' Day affair with Indiana State and the sev-enty-third edition of the Monon Bell Classic with Wabash. Reservations for the dinner I may be made by calling OL 3-4517, the Chamber of Commerce office.

Students Take Stream Survey

Chasing fish in Big Walnut Creek has become a strictly academic pursuit for a hearty group of DePauw University students and their professor. Abandoning the classroom each Friday afternoon and Saturday and shifting their attention to Putnam County’s capricious Big Walnut, the young zoology and pre-medical science majors have plunged into a pre-impoundment study for the j U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, j The Federal and State governments’ proposals to build a $30 million dam and reservoir j on Big Walnut, four miles ! northeast of Greencastle, has triggered this study, according to Dr. James Gammon, associate professor of zoology at DePauw. If the dam materializes, the i

thusiastic graduate and undergraduate students, Gammon! and his task force have waded | into the assignment. A gasoline engine mounted on a homemade “raft" generates the needed electricity. The engine sprouts a snake-like 50foot electric line with a student manning a terminal pole at each end. Bare wires attached to the floating line ploop into the water, creating an electric field. Rubber boots insulate the fisherman against the jolt, but for the fish it’s a shocking experience as the operation spans the creek and feels its way upstream. Momentarily stunned, the fish become immobile until a dexterous student corrals them and flips them triumphantly in-

Gammon said ordinarily this species is not a stream fish and isn’t found in central Indiana. He theorized it might be an escapee from some nearby stocked pond. Work done by Gammon on streams feeding Mansfield Lake in adjacent Parke County has shown dams exert influence w T ell beyond the waters they impound. Tributaries there turned up a number of large mouth bass and gizzard shad. Both | were uncommon residents in the streams before impound-; ment. The new lake, Gammon concluded, produced good spawning conditions and the fish, so to speak, swram and

Federal agency wants to know its before and after effects on fish and invertebrates now r in the creek and its tributaries. That's where Gammon and his volunteers come in. Through its Bureau of River Basin Development office at Lebanon, O., the Service approached DePauw last year to make the study. Since the zoology department, headed by Dr. A1 Reynolds, had been doing essentially the same work in 60 other streams in the area since 1962. the invitation was readily accepted. The gist of the job is census taking—finding out what kinds of fish and how many make the Big Walnut system their home. Macro invertebrate population - large aquatic insect larvae— is slated for examination this winter. Armed with a floating electric seine and a mixture of en-

The Clovers, last year's County. Sectional, and Regional tournament winners, have returned this year with basically the same team. Only one member of the team graduated leaving coach Jim Miller with his starting line-up untouched. One of the biggest questions to date is whether Miller will try and go with his same lineup as last year or not. Comment has it that Jim Coon has rooted his way into the first five string. Whoever Miller uses for his first string he shouldn't have many worries about a substitute. His bench will probably be one of the strongest in the county. Eminence is a fast moving ball club with some exceptionally good shots from the far out! spots and it looks as though the Clovers have their hands full, j Other tilts that we have on : our schedule include Friday j night action when Reelsville travels to Roachdale and Cloverdale again hits the road to Van Buren. j

Sharp Wins Grand Prix RIVERSIDE, Calif. UPI — Hap Sharp collected S14.640 for driving to a record - speedy victory in the Riverside Grand Prix Sunday, but was willing before the race to let his betterknown teammate, Jim Hall, take his place. Sharp averaged 102.989 miles per hour to eclipse the previous mark of 99.152 M.P.H. by last year’s winner Parnelli Jones of Torrance. Calif. Jones was one of many top drivers to drop out of the 200-mile race because of mechanical malfunctions. Sharp finished 11 seconds ahead of world driving champion Jimmy Clark of Scotland, who drove a Lotus 40. and 22 seconds ahead of Bruce McLaren of London, who lost a lap when he had to make a pit stop to change a tire. A crowd of 84,478, another record here, watched the $49.660 event — America's richest road race. Both Sharp and Hall - Texas oilman who drove the powerful Chaparrals qualified Saturday with good speeds. However, Hall announced Sunday morning that his car was out of the race with suspension troubles. “I offered Jim my seat, but | I’m better cushioned for it,"! Sharp said, patting his stomach.
