Tall Crete Mext Plattsmouth's Blue Devils, who took their lumps In a dog ged cage battle with Nebraska City Tuesday night broken open In the closing minutes, have more hard work cut out for them Saturday night. They travel to Crete for anoth er Twin Rivers Conference game and will find one of their main difficulties, lack of all-around height, accented again. Crete has not built an Impres sive record but it has tall, young team expected to improve great ly as the season progresses. The game Is Saturday night Instead of the usual Friday be cause of a conflict with a Doane College game at Crete Friday night. Plattsmouth Coach John Ad klns says the word on Crete is that they're big and not too bad," despite several losses. Adklns isn't giving up one bit on his own squad, in spite of Tuesday night's reversal. He be lieves the team is improving right alon. Main trouble against Nebr aska City was "deep cold" spell of shooting in the third quar ter when Nebraska City broke away from a halftime score fav oring Plattsmouth, 20-19, going self take the lead, 34-28, going Into the fourth quarter. After that, Plattsmouth re mained cold, getting only two field goals, and two free throws the last eight minutes. The Dev ils had to loosen up, too, to try to steal the ball as the Pioneers were content to play It slow and deliberate. That helped to en large the score. For the second half (won Nebraska City 32 to 14), Blue Devils shot only .160 four goals In 25 tries. In same stretch, the Pioneers 11 for 28, .392.

The protest didn't do any good, though. The shot was good. ter was big enough to keep the rebounding a continual uphill battle under both baskets for Plattsmouth. That is likely to be a problem at Crete Saturday, too. Albert Dasher led Platts mouth in scoring with 17, includ ing 7 out of 10 free throws. He got four of the team's six fourth quarter output and eight cf the 14 scored in the seccnd half.

Mary Ann Lockman, reporter LETT BOX Clarks, Nebr. January 9, 1960 Editor Plattsmouth Journal: Merrick County taxpayers can well agree with the letter of Nov. Soth to your fine paper in which Mr. Ralph Doud sets forth the need of Cass county for a trained highway engineer, gra duated from a college or uni-, versity and certified. We have none, contrary to Mr. Doud's writing, only a former farmer, serving as County engineer, at an exorbitant salary. A trained engineer would not have built the bridge Mr. Doud mentioned as a $12,500 sav ing on the ground that it is too long without turn outs, too nar row, and a great traffic hazard in foggy or icy weather As it stands he would say there Is a $27,500 accident trap .... Cass and Merrick County each and both point up the need for corrective action by the next Legislature. Mr. Doud also must have spent his two days at our highway dep't. building and should hurry to withdraw his expense offer to Central City. Resp'y C. A. Hude.
