Plattsmou'.h Hinh today en
tered its final days of prepara
tion for the start of the 1903-64
basketball season, Friday night
at Paplllion.
Coach Lowell Johnson, after
a long, hard scrimmage Friday,
said four players seem to have
cemented starting berths but
there is still a scrap for the fifth
spot and there are battles for
two spots on the varsity squad
of 12.
Based on most-recent per
formance, Johnson said, four
veterans appear well-established
as starters guards Leland Prtt-
chard and Roger Heedum and
front liners Bob McClanahan and
Bill Nettelmann.

the clubhouse. Mrs. Vilas Spangler of the club
"planted" three bulbs of the tropical water plant
which flourishes in southern areas of the 1'. S.
That was in May. At first the transplants didn't
do too well but suddenly in late summer they
began to reproduce at an alarming rate and in a
matter of weeks had overspread the entire lake.
Something like water lilies, the plants multiply
by sending out "runners" like strawberry plants.
They have delicate purple flowers at maturity.

Ray Harold Sr. works at the harvest. As the wind
moves the floating island of plants to the shores,
he forks the now dead plants from the water.
The piles of hyacinths are drying and he believes
eventually ran be burned. The puds contain a
lacy, almost weightless kapok-like substance and

definitely. Mrs. Spanglrr rescued a few of the
bulbs before the first freeze killed the entire crop
and they could be planted next spring if they
survive the winter indoors.
