Albion 72; O'Neill 55
The Albion Cardinals, boasting
an impressive season's record
with wins over class A Columbus
and nine other victims, rolled to
a 72-55 victory over the O'Neill
Eagles here Tuesday nigh». Al
bion simply had too much height
and too much ball handling sav
vy for the Blues, wfco were mak
ing their final regularly-scheduled
home appearance.
The defeat closed the OHS
slate with seven defeats compar
ed to 11 victories. Albion has
won 10 and lost six.
O’Neill jumped to a seven
point lead in the early minutes,
then Albion moved ahead, 20-17,
as the first period endea O’Neill
could muster only eight points in
the second period compared to
Albion’s 14. The Blues sank two
out of eight freethrow attempts
in the second period and muffed
th-ee layups. This broke their
back and from then o l it was Al
bion’s show. Albion had two fine
guards, Robinson and Johnson,
who collectively accounted for 41
points.
Larry Chace hit 20 points for
O’Neill while Johnson a counted
for 22 for Albion.
In a preliminary, th2 St. Mary’s

Stuart Wins 2
Class C Upsets
(Special to The Frontier)
ATKINSON — Those Stuart
high Broncos are the talk of the
district class C basketball tourney
in progress here, having scored
two stirring upsets.
First Round . . .
(Monday Night)
Stuart 60; Bartlett 45
nto Stuart high Broncos laun
ched the class C basketball tour
n*y in Atkinson Monday night
with a rousing upset, defeating
Wheeler county high (Bartlett),
w-4o. Bartlett was one of the
seeded teams
Stuart’s scoring was led by
Shald with 21 points, while Rosso
led Bartlett.
Stuart led Bartlet; 12-3 at the
first quarter, 24-13 at the half.
and 44-33 at the end of the third
• * *
St Joe 56; Butte 40
Two well-matched teams squar
ed off for Monday’s number
two game, but St. Joseph’s hall
(Atkinson) proved too much for
the strong Butte team, *56-40.
St. Joe was in front 34-19 at
the half, and moved to a 45-29
margin at the start of the final
period.
Clarence Schmit tallied 22
points for the victors, while
Quick was best for Butte with 11.
The fourth quarter turned into
a half-hour affair because of the
many fouls that were called.
Atkinson 55r St. Mary's 49
Best game of the evening was
the Atkinson-St. Mary’s (O’Neill)
"o wHch ended 55-49 in favor of
the elongated Balers.
Atkinson, which sported an
-in . and . aown season’s record,
jumped to an early lead sparked
by Freddy Dobrovolny’s two,
fielders and five free throws dur
in~ the first half.
The Balers owned a 21-11 ad
jutage when St. Marys Terry
Wanser sank four successive
I fielders in four tries. Atkinson
was in front, 24-23, at intermis
sion
The third period was a weird,
see-saw affair and ended 36-ali.
St. Mary’s moved ahead three
points as the fourth stanza open
ed. But personal fouls were the
C* undoing.
The Balers succeeded in mak
ing only one fielder during the
frantic fourth but cashed in on
15 consecutive freethrows t o
ice the victory and knock the
Cards from tournament running.
Duane Weier, SMA center,
was chased from the game via
the foul route with five minutes
to go and the Cardinal cause was
completely lost when Guard
Dick Graham was escorted to the
showers, same reason, with 3
minutes remaining. Wanser roll
ed ud 18 pcdnts for SMA; Gary
Small hit 18 for Atkinson.
It was curtains for Coach
Fritz Bazelman and the 1954 edi
tion of the Cards, who returned
home to pack their togs.

cage champions, breezed to a 53
37 triumph over Spalding acad
emy in Tuesday night’s opener.
Spencer led 34-28 at halftime
and moved to a 43-37 lead at the

distributed. McCarthy tallied 21
for the Irish.

Stuart 42; Ewing 37
Those Stuart Broncos, who
Monday ousted Bartlett, roared
back Tuesday to whip the Ewing
Tigers, 42-37. The Stuart team

KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY*86PROOF*4 YRS OLD
DISTRIBUTED BY WESTERN WiNE & LIQUOR CO.
Old Number
750
No. 750 happens to be the
stock number on a 4-piece
Broyhill bedroom suite. It has
a beautiful 5-drawer, 48-inch
vanity with a large framed
plate-glass mirror, an extra
large 4-drawer chest with a
small framed inset mirror on
the top, a comfortable padded
bench with back rest and full
sized bed.
This suite is of extra good
quality in sliced walnut in
waterfall styling. The younger
generation thinks waterfall
suites are out of date. We had
two of these suites more than
we needed so last week they
were put on sale at $189.50.
Only one sold.
The boss called up Monday
and wanted to know if both
No. 750's moved.
I answered: "One left." He
said, "Cut it to $119.50.” and.
as an after-thought, he asked:
"How much did they cost us?'
Before I got back to the tel
ephone the operator cut me off
with the words stuck in my
mouth, "$141.00 and $13.40
freight apiece.” Old 750 will be
on display in our east window
Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
too, if not sold sooner. This ;s
probably the first time in his
tory that a brand new suite of
this quality was priced at
$119.50.
Don't let even a blizzard stop
you from seeing this one if you
need a bedroom suite.
