13 J ecertt I ourney reotest i r 'evils Plattsmouth Blue DevUs of iy06 didn't reach the state tour-! ney at Lincoln this year, but they showed up well during the season and came as close as most of them in taking on Champion Falls City and Col lierunanimous all-stater. Recent play-offs recalled bet ter years for old-timers in Plattsmouth, with most of them thinking about that team of 1920 that saw John Sattler, Blue Devil jumping and basket shoot ing center, backed up by Gus Brubacker, guard, Ernest Schu beck, forward, Joe McCarthy, guard, Carl J. Schneider, for ward, with Adolph Mollis, Ray mond Bockmeyer and Harold Mullis, acting as relief men. Schubeck, Bockmeyer and Mullis have passed on to their reward, but surviving team members can recall two or three seasons that saw Plattsmouth at the top of the heap in East Nebraska, defeating Falls City, Beatrice, Nebraska City, Omaha South and some other big names by decisive tallies. 'Mr. Basketball" McBride, Worid-Herald sports scribe, in his column following the state tourney at Lincoln reminisced with Gov. Vic Anderson, a stand ing guard on the Havelock teams of 1919 and '20. Gov. Vic, then a lad of 135 pounds, recalled jumping center with John Sattler, Plattsmouth ace "considered one of the tourney's better jumpers." They both now laugh over a Els earn trick Vic used in improving his jumping abilities. Anderson placed one hand on Sattler's shoulder and with the other tapped the ball. Against the rules, but like now, a good trick if you got away with it. He held Sattler down long enough that Havelock: won the final Tourney game in Class C by 22-14. But it wasn't always so dur ing season play. Plattsmouth won over Havelock in two games prior to the tourney. In 1921 the Devils took them on twice, swamping them the first-time 63 to 3 Havelock never made a point in the second half. Next time they journied to Havelock and beat them 30 to 19. In 1919 it was the same, Gov. Anderson helped his team mates go down 67 to 8. We don't know what happened to the Platters in Tournament play. Outside of basketball, that 1920 team didn't do so bad eith er. It produced two bankers, C. J. Schneider, President Platts mouth State, Adolph Hollis, President Stock Yards National at Omaha; a store owner, Gus Brubacker, Murray; a railroad er, Joe McCarthy, long with the C B & Q in a2;igh position, and Sattler, the Plattsmouth Mortician. ( Start tse A ( RIGHT WITH CHICK WAY HE STARTER Special to the Journal Trout fishing in eastern Ne braska will begin March 31st at the Louisville and Fremont state recreation grounds when more than 4,000 rainbow trout are stocked by the Nebraska game commission. For. many eastern Nebraskans this is the occasion for the first fishing trip of the season. All of the yearling trout stocked at these recreation areas are rais ed at the Rock Creek hatchery near Benkelman. First stocking this spring was at Elm Creek, located east of Red Cloud in Webster county. Over 2,000 rainbow trout were stocked there Feb. 24th. The same amount of the gaudy rain bows are being stocked this month. Later the northern trout streams are scheduled to re ceive stockings of both rainbows and brown trout. Fishery workers at Gam Commission hatcheriestare busy getting trucklcads of rainbow trout stocked for the coming fishing pressure. For the most part, Nebraska streams and lakes have little natural repro duction of trout. If you are to have trout fishing maintained from year to year, periodic stocking is a necessity. This type of fishing, main tained by regular stocking, is called "put and take" fishing. It is the only way of keeping trout fishing in nearly sub-standard waters that don't have ex pensive gravelbcttomed spawn ing areas. The cost of raising yearling trout for stocking is placed at 352 csnts by the fishery divi sion. Add one penny per fish for transportation to streams and ycu have total cost of about 37 cents per trout stocked. If you are skilled, or lucky enough to catch a daily bag limit of seven trout, you have made a pretty good return on your fishing permit cost of $1.50 actually profiting by about $1.0.. Of course most fishermen don't look at their fishing from a "dol lars and cents" viewpoint. The mere fact that we get outdoors and find that all-important re laxation and companionship with friends and family are worth more to most of us than the financial side of the picture. Yet, as fishermen it is im portant that we understand the financial side of 'put and take" fishing for trout. After all, that is the only way we can keep trout fishing in most waters of the state.

Bruning Takes Win Volleyball At Peru State PERU Bruning high school's spikers defeated the defending champion Burr high school team 25-13 to cop top trophy in the ninth annual Peru State invitational Volleyball tournament for High School Girls Wednesday night. It was "sweet revenge" for Bruning, since the only other ime the team had entered the tourney, in 1951, they lost to Burr in the quarter - finals. Burr high school has dominated the tournament for the past four years, winning top spot during that time. Murdock outlasted Verdon in double overtime contest 23- 21.

The man goes under the house, returns with a board full of insects and tells the home owner his house is near col lapse. He offers to treat the house and save it frcm ruin, the price depending on the number of gallons of poison he has to use. Result: The home owner is swindled out of his money! In many cases the homes of the victims are not even infested with the pests; in others, the treatment is worthless or, worse than worthless because the victim is lulled into a sense of security while the unharmed insects continue to chew away -the house. This swindler is one of scores of such transients who roam the nation from coast to coast, fleecing uninformed people of substantial sums on worthless termite control jobs. Only a relatively few people are familiar with termites and even today, not withstanding great strides made in the science of pest control, few property owners have a clear un derstanding of its ramifications. The guarantees of termite control operators, if any, may be entirely legitimate; or worthless j or fraudulent.
