It was a slight de fensive edge that gave the B-men their win, for neither team played a very brilliant game on the of fense. Walker started things out with a bucket, Scheer duplicating to tie things up at 2-all. A free throw by Walker put the Field House men in the lead for the last time, as the Hustlers went on to a half time score of 22-17. The second half began nip and tuck, with the Hustlers finally getting started as the tiring Field House five began to find them selves tied up. Favorable testimony of the ef forts of the Shaffer-men might be found in the fact that the big threesome of Miles. Meckling and Casson was completely eliminated from the game on fouls. However, poor shooting cost the Field House heavily, an. I probably accounted for the final score. High scorer was FulW, with 13 points for the Hustlers. Suchy Walker and .lesson followed with 9 apiece, while Bob Scheer account ed fcr orly 5.

Bill Chisolm Pfc.Bill Calkins Colorful 604 Quintet Wins 44-38, Over Fighting C Co. Led bv former Harlem Globe Trotter "Goose" Tatum, a smooth flashy 604th Training Group team from Lincoln Air Base unleashed too much power for a fighting C company, to come out on top 44 to 38. yesterday afternoon at the Coliseum. Tatum, a former All Professional star for the Trotters dropped in 22 points, many on spectacular pivot shots; and was assisted bv a team-mate of his on the Harlem club, Vic Krafft and Ralph Brady, former ail- American ball player from Wash burn. This trio scored all except two of the winner's total. In the meanwhile, Company C was showing: some clever baii- playing too. Milt Dobrer played an outstanding game for the losers. setting up plays, and dropping in 17 points 14 of them in the first half. Cliff Lind and Al Burstein played excellent defensive games, with Lind contributing 7 points to tthe Smithmen's score. "C" Leads at Half. The "C" men set a terrific pace in the first half, to lead Zo-li when the session ended Dobrer was "dead" from way out, or in close, while Kraft popped three straight set shots for the colored stars, and Tatum looped in 6 field goals. The ASTP quintent jumped ahead as the second stanza started. but mid-way thru the period, the 604th had tied it up at 31 all and then went on to score 10 straight points before the college bovs could hit the basket again.

It's th only time of year when a guy can get a kiss from his gal without first promising the Empire Stata Building. And it's not just one girl anytime a babe walks under that mistletoe, you can just ambla up to her and let her have one. Today, therefore, I should like to say a few words about the tech nique of kissing under a mistletoe. It's a very exacting technique, and one that requires precision and accuracy. (It wouldn't do to miss the mark, and kiss her on the right eye.) When the young Innocent is standing under "God's gift to man kind at Christmas," you mustn't bee too anxious to give her a peck. Examine the Dieeon first and sri if she's worthy of your attentions; by that I mean, find out if she lias two eyes, two ears, and all the rest. (Personally, with me it's OK, just so long as she has a face! I can't afford to be particular any more. ) Then, when von ha in reconnoitred and found her to be satisfactory, sidle up to her. Don't hurry women at Christmas time are always nervous be non chalant. In an inconsnicuous sort of way walk up to her and then, when she is within your grasp let her have it. Aim carefully, be calm and sure. Pucker the lips slightly and extend the head forward. In stinct will guide you from thereon. The best thing to do during the season, is to carry your own mitletoe. Then when vou see ,i piece of fluff that looks interest ing, approacn ner casually, lift the mistletoe over her head, holler Surprise," and give her the old one, two. As a final word, it would be wise to have a first aid kit with you. Should you get too energetic aooui mis misueioe iaea, you may end up with a clawed cheek, or a broken jaw, depending on whether her boy friend is in the vicinity. -"yy $r ' .
