Use Our Lay-Away on Coats DISTINCTIVE "X The jmrnm The cycle of injury was still on the Plattsmouth Blue "Devils today as they tried to prepare for Falls City on the home sod on Friday night. The Devils' list of nine injured brought home from the West side game last Friday grew to 10 this week when alternate quar terback Loren Haase sprained his ankle in practice. Many of the faces in the probable starting: lineup Fri day night will be shiny new, and some of the old ones will be in new positions. The freshman team is playing at Westside this afternoon but they are without one of their big guns as Freshman Torn Win scot faced a probable starting halfback job Friday night. "The boys have all worked hard," said Coach Burdette Han sen, who doesn't think his play ers deserve the plague of injur ies. Denny Hirz, regular fullback, has a charleyhorse and will not be seen Friday night. Instead Larry Long has shifted from the halfback post to fullback. This puts Junior Bob Wilson at one half and Freshman Tom Win scot at the other. Coach Hansen is almost fresh out of quarterbacks. Haase could barely walk on his ankle Wednesday afternoon and Quar terback Vern Aylor was nursing an injured knee. Hansen was Plattsmouth VFW Footballers Open Against Peru "B" Tuesday Another football team takes to the field in Plattsmouth next Tuesday. This is the Plattsmouth VFW post team which makes its start against the Peru State Teachers "B" team at Platts mouth high school field Oct. 11. Last year Peru "B" defeated the Plattsmouth team in the last four minutes of play by a score of 9-0. Money acquired from admis sions to this game will go to ward a college scholarship from a Plattsmouth high school senior, to be selected by the VFW. James Graves is attending Peru Teachers this year on a TANDA CAMP FIRE MEETING HELD The regular meeting of the Tanda Camp Fire group was held at the Central School Audi torium Thursday afternoon with all members and guardians pres ent. Plans were made for making tray favors for the Rest Homes. The members were invited to serve as baby-sitters at the next P.T.A. meeting. Christmas gifts for our mothers were discussed. A wrord game was played. Regina Nelson, Scribe. College costs to students soars to new peak. The Backbone of Your Pal! Wardrobe APPAREL Fashion Center of Cass County naming Aylor to take the start ing spot, but placed a large question mark behind his name. If Aylor isn't ready, there is al most no signal caller ready. Tackle Mike Lewis will see no service. What was first thought sprain to his ankle now appears to have been an insect string-. He may be back on Monday. Seniors Ed Kaffenberger and Dan Huebner were ready as reg ulars at end; Sophomore Bob Hutton and Senior Al Fairfield probably will be the starting tackles. Ed Egenberger, regular cen ter, who came away from the Westside game with an injured arm and shoulder, rehurt this in practice. If he isn't ready, the Devils will probably go with Sophomore Bill Long at the pivot. Sophomore Guard Dennis Bur bee, injured in a traffic mis hap, is probably out for the sea son; Sophomore Guard Larry Cundall is out with an injured shoulder. Besides all this, Falls City is a tough customer. The Devil reserves lost Mon day night to Auburn B at the Plattsmouth field and the Dev ils haven't seen victory yet as an A team. They're hungry but hurt. VFW scholarship. Bryon Finne frock, who graduated from Plattsmouth high school in 1954, received the scholarship the year before. Before 1954, the proceeds of the VFW football team went to the Plattsmouth polio fund. The VFW team Tuesday night will be bolstered by Tom Ro han, and all-time great Platts mouth high school guard, who has just, returned from service with the Army, and Dick Fish er, who played tackle on the last Plattsmouth conference conference championship team. Other former Plattsmouth greats to see service against Peru Tuesday will be Grover Parriott, Merle Dasher, Don Eaton, Darrell Williamson, Kune Kennell, Vern Kalasek, Carl Haith, Dewayne Noell, Bryon Finnefrock, John Blotzer and others. Squad members, who are for mer college players,- include Ron Hughes, former Hastings Col lege backfielder, and Ralph Strom, who played four yiears at Tarkio College as a teammate of John Adkins, Plattsmouth high assistant football coach and head basketball coach.
