Ralston is unbeaten with a dozen victories to its credit and a reputation for "fire power". There'll be big and little prob lems for Plattsmouth. Big ones are a 6-8 center. Woodward, and a 6-4 forward, Miller. The latter ls a smooth, accomlplshed work man. Little problems are the other three Ralston starters, small but veterans of several campaigns. Plattsmouth will be shorthand ed again, in fact more shorthand ed than usual, perhaps. Jim Stewart who sprained an ankle at Beatrice is probably out for the rest of the season. The ankle, with torn ligaments, was to be put into a cast this week. Denny Campbell, sophomore who came through well in his first big chance last week, is to start Friday night in Stewart's place. To add to the squad's compli cations. Galen Pritchard. re serve guard, sprained an ankle in practice this week. Dave Albert, who suffered a leg injury earlier in the season, is back for light workouts but probably Isn't ready yet for real service. Despite all this, Coach John Adkins called this week's work outs "real eood" and was con ceding nothing as his sauad readied for Friday's game at 8 p.m. after the reserve sauads have played at 6:30. 'Preparedness Is Only Answer to Communism' The Rotary Club Tuesday noon heard Dale Bowman, past commander of the Nebraska De partment of the Veterans of Foreign Wars "Sneak Un for Democraay." Bowman sooke of national preparedness and the new mis sile-firing submarine, George Washington. He said the sub win tire the Polaris missile up to 1,500 miles. He said there is need for con tinued advancement in weapons, counterweapons and defenses because the Communists are al so advance in striking and re taliatory power. Bowman said it is estimated the Soviets have about six sub marines similar to the George Washington, a $105 million ship. He said "adequate national preparedness is the only ans wer to communism." Program chairman for the day was Cecil Karr. Ihe club took ud a collection for the Heart Fund and $37.75 was raised.
