ORCHARD TRIPS
INMAN ‘5’, 42-41
[UNMAN — The Orchard Ori
oles Friday night nosed out the
Inman cage quintet, 42-41, after
going into an overtime period
in the non-conference tilt to
capture the victory.
During the exciting clash be
tween the two arch - rival
schools, the count was knotted j
5 times and the lead changed
hands 7 times
Throughout the first half,
there was never more than a 3
point margain between the two
teams. After a slow first period,
Inman trailed 4-5 going Into
the second period of play. The
play pepped up and Orchard
held a 2-point lead over the
host crew. 21-19, as the inter
mission buzzer sounded.
Third canto play was sluggish
but Orchard stretched its lead
■to 31-24 when the third quarter
ended. However the Inman kids
manufactured a rally and when
the regulation game ended the
count was deadlocked at 37.
The overtime period was a
hectic up-and-down-the-f 1 o o r
affair. Pat Hartigan, the Inman
pivot man, hit a pair of buckets
for the Inman scores while
Dempster potted a bucket and
a charity and Erb poured in
another bucket to give the Or
ioles their 1-point margain.
In accuracy at the foul line
caused the Inman loss. Inman
was only able to sink 3 of 10
gratis tosses for 30 percent while
the Orchard outfit slipped
through 10 of 17 for 58 percent
Hemenway, of Orchard, and
Hartigan, of Inman, paced their
respective teams with 16 points
each. „ *

grass. Those were bad years
and many people had left. Com
ing as we did, we could settle
about anywhere because there
were a lot of empty houses.”
More chilren came to bless
the modest Summers household
and the family exp<yjenced the
usual trials, tribulations and
hardships of frontier life.
One son, W. A., remembers
that in his growing up years
he ate his full share of cornbred
and molasses.
Later, Miles Summers mov
ed his family to a farm 8
mi.es Northwest of Page. This
farm is still regarded as the
old home place.
Mrs. Summers has a vived
memory of historical incidents
in early Holt county history,
and she is supremely happy
when she is retelling some of
her experiences.
“I know all about that Bar
ret Scott case,’’ she reassured
The Frontier reporter. *‘i
can tell you how the gang gath
ered in a big red bam.
“His wife was with him when
the masked men took hiim.
Scott stood up in the carriage
and aloud identified the mask
ed men so his wife could hear.
“They were going to scare
Scott Into giving out informa
tion there in the barn. They
didn’t intend to kill him, but let
him hang there a little too long.
“Then they took the body to
the Niobrara river.
“I can tell you how the coun
try was settled and got built
up
“O’Neill, my! It has grown
from a tiny village.
“Now, instead of small1
bunches of grass, all one sees
is big haystacks.’’
Mr. Summers died in 1933.
Since then his widow has made
her home with her children,
spending the past 2 years with
her son, Frank, and family.
The Cruickshank’s are noted
for their longevity, and Isabella,
the eldest, is doing well. Her
father was 96 when he died, her
mother was 94. Her “kid" sis
ters and brothers include: Mrs.
Jean Burnett, 86, of Medicine
Bow, Wyo.; John Cruickshank.
84, of Golden Valley, N. L>.;
Mrs. Etta Nickerson, 82, of Red
Bluff, Calif.; Mrs. Ora (Bessie)
Marshall , of Casper, Wyo.;
and Andrew Cruickshank, 71, of
Long Beach, Calif.
A member of the Methodist
church, Mrs. Summers has been
very active until recently when
her eyesight began to fail. Un
til lately she has spent consid
erable time crocheting and
reading. Now, however, she can
read only the headlines in a
newspaper.
Three weeks ago she tripped
on a rug while carrying her
bird and birdcage. She hurt her
collarbone and was bruised.
One daughter, Mrs. Sherman
(Iola) Bergstrom, who lived 6
miles east of Page, died 27 years
ago.
Her 6 sons are all living—W.
A. Summers, of Bartlett; Char
les and Frank Summers, both
of O’Neill, all of whom were
born in Washington county;
Earl Summers, of Ewing, and
it. Mark Summers, of Elgin, and
Leslie Summers, who lives on
the old place north of Page, all
of whom were born in Holt
county. Mrs, Bergstrom also
was born in Holt county.
Among her relatives and
friends, the bespectacled lit
tie old lady enjoys the repu
tation of always having a
kind word and a cheerful
smile. She loves to chat and
joke.
As if her homestead chores
and 7 children didn’t keep her
busy enough, she was for many
years a country correspondent
lor The Frontier. She wrote the
community news for Cream
Ridge, north of Page.
In bygone years her notes
were called “Echoes from
Cream Ridge."
“You can tell The Frontier
readers that this is another echo
from Cream Ridge,” she poking- 1
ly told the reporter when he
wished her “Happy Birthday"
and bade her “goodbye.”

Derrick told his audience
that "grass is America's big
gest crop; that S3 percent of
all the acree in the United
States are devoted to gram
and hay."
He emphasized the growing
importance of the beef industry
by pointing out that the aver
age American eats 7.7 ounces
of meat per day; the best-eat
ing Americans average 8.3
ounces.
He agreed with Mr. Whitak
er’s remarks that the “box car"
type beeves were too big, took
too long to fatten for economic
reasons, but beeves too small
were uneconomical, too.
“We need the kind of beef
that you’re producing right
here; the size that uses up grain
most efficiently.”
Derrick told how registered
breeders and commercial breed
ers “cannot neglect” each other;
that they “work hand-in-hand
in the best interests of the in
dustry.”
The Davis brothers —Owen,
Edward and Lyle—played three
selections on their electric guL
tar before the showing of the
film, “Angus Trails,” by A.
Noil Dawes.
