St. Joe Spanks Eagles 29-17 to Cop Title O'Neill Wilts in 2d Half as Mr. Scott Boosts Total to 22 O’Neill’s Blue Eagles wilted in the second-hall here Friday night as the strong Bluejays of St. i Joseph’s, of Atkinson, poured on the heat to win the 10th annual Holt county tourney finals, 29-17. There was standing-room-only j in the public school auditoriiun as the Josies, headed by Forward Ed Scott, befuddled the Blues With their second-half surge, The customers defied subzero temper-1 atures and blowing snow to come from every corner of the county for the title bout. St. Joe started strong with four under-the-basket buckets by Red headed Scott. O’Neill recovered and trailed 9-10 at the rest per-; iod. In the second, the Eagles j took a one-point lead on some fancy comer shooting by For —-.-. ward Dick Tibbetts, who proved to be O’Neill’s only scoring hope. At intermission the count was 13-all. , . The Josies bounded back in the third to score five points com pared to O’Neill's none. The final stanza was all St. Joseph’s with Mr. Scott upping his evening’s total to 22. O’Neill bothered the Josies by working the ball slowly. O’Neill’s usually high scoring Ike Saindon was boxed up completely and neither he nor Bob Matthews ac counted for themselves in the scoring department. It was the second title in the week for the Josies. They copped the state Catholic prep chamion ship at York in the finals Tuesday night and entered the Holt meet the following night (having been issued a first-round bye.) They blasted Page 33-19 and spanked Stuart 43-33 to gain the finals. The Josies’ only loss this season was a one-point decision to ♦tettiiiiiimgmagKaoniUtgiUOt i BASKETBALL! In O’Neill...

The Nebraska Committee, through eight years of state wide publicity, has strongly urged citizens to report any tavern conditions that should be corrected ... to exercise care in selecting beer licensees. With special attention thus di rected to license renewals, it is impressive therefore that citi zens in less than 1% of the towns appeared with criticisms or protests. From only 5 Ne braska towns were protests filed by citizens. Of 1799 ap plicants, only 14 were denied for reasons of improper con duct. The State can well be proud of this record. Few other states can match it. It means that Nebraska tavern-keepers are cooperating by observing the State’s excellent liquor control laws . . . are conducting their places in the public interest. This Committee will continue to work for further improve ment. NEBRASKA COMMITTEE ag United States Brewers Foundation Charles E.
