Comments On Milford Games By JOSEPH JESSOP The Milford Trojans sough their way to the semi-finals at the Warsaw sectional "by defeating a tough Pierceton Pierceton has beaten us twice this season going into the sectional. The Trojans decided that this was the game to come back and beat the well regarded Cubs. Holderread was the big gun for Milford. He was followed by Mike Zimmerman and Verl Baker. 1 This was by far the best game the blue and white has played all year. As I told you before the boys could , win if they only play--1 ed defense. The boys were ahead at the end of the first quarter and had the same margin at the half. Then during the third quarter they j broke the game wide open by ! scoring 20 points to 14 by the Cubs. The Cubs finally got hot in the fourth quarter but the Milford lead was still there. Pierceton put on a terrific effort and they almost come up with a time or even | a win but the Trojans survived I and when the game was over Milfor was on top. Semi-Finals Columbia City's Eagles flew mighty high last Saturday by defeating the Trojans by 26 points in the semi-finals. The Trojans tried hard but they were way out-classed. Columbia City was ahead by eight points at the end of the first quarter and had extended their lead by the half. Height was a big problem for Milford as fans saw our boys jump to block a shot that a 6’ 5" man was shooting. It’s not very easily done and we can sure prove it by looking at the final score. Columbia City never stopped hitting until about 10 p.m. Saturday night after they han beaten Warsaw in the championship game. The Trojans should have no regrets for being beaten by such a great team. Milford ended its season with a 17-6 mark. Seniors graduating this year are: Jon Jon Dewart, Tom Holderread, Marion Groves, Jack McClintic.and Mike Zimmerman. I would like to congratulate the Trojans for a great season. If any of my readers would like to congratulate the team just send your letter to me, Joseph Jessen at box 428. Milford. How the fans feel means a lot to the boys and remember next year we have four returning varsity lettermen; Greg Mishler. Stan Stump, Verl Baker and Dick Groves.

by H. JACK MIDDLETON, _ Purina Cat Care Center Toys For Your Cat A cat’s sense of fun is one of Its greatest charms. The simplest things intrigue cats. They’ll stalk, pounce and tumble with a plain wad of paper for hours. A box to play hide-and-seek in or a catnip trinket will delight them. Be sure that your cat’s toys cannot be splintered, torn apart and swallowed. Give your cat a few toys to begin with and add new ones from time to time. Thia will keep him from becoming bored and destructive. The Purina Cat Care Center suggests a few of the toys which your cat will enjoy: • celluloid ball that rattles. • cellophane and catnip bag. • a spool attached to a st >ng piece of string and hung from a chair or doorknob. • a rubber mouse that squeaks. Be careful of open drawers, trunks and closets. Cats love to play in and investigate •waiin, dark spots and are often unwittingly imprisoned.
