Davis Cop captain BUIy Talbert shows joy as he landed in I/os Angeles with trophy which Australians held four years until Vic Seixas and Tony Trabert won it tack last month, 3 matches to 2- This loss was Dresden's third of the season and their 46-point total was low for the year, although they were held to the same by Philo 57-46. Their other loss was to New Lexington 77-73. However, their 10 field goals in this game probably rep resents a new low for recent years. Caldwell hopped into the lead at the outset of the game and maintained it throughout to post their fourth win in 10 games. The local cagers led 17-12 at the first quarter, widened their margin to 37-26 at half time, then stretched their winning margin to 13 points after each side netted only six points in the third period. The Redskin press, especially down-court, bothered the Jay Hawks considerably, forcing them to turn over the ball fre quently in the first half. It also kept Dresden's top scorer, A1 Zimmer and George Holmes from handling the ball often enough to pile up any number of points. Zimmer, who has been averaging 19, and Holmes 18. were limited to eight and nine each. Caldwell tallied 22 field goals compared to 10 for the visitors, who managed only two in the second hall'., Dresden, did how ever, convert 16 out of 25 free throws in the second half and had 26 out of 41 for the entire game. The Redskins made good 1") out of 29. Vance Bates tallied 19 points for top scoring honors in the i\ ime, pushing his average to 16 per game.

On Tuesday night one of the area's top non league teams will play here when Caldwell is host to Woods field. The Indians have had the sign on Caldwell in recent years, beating the Redskins no less than five times in three seasons, and knocking them out of the sec tional tourney the last two. In 1954 it was by scores of 73-59 in the tournament and 66-52 in the season. IN FACT, Woodsfield has won the last eight games played between the two schools making it necessary to dig back to 1942 to find Caldwell's last victory and that was a squeaker 36-35. Jack Turnbaugh was coach then, compiling a record of 14 wins against 10 losses. On the squad were Ed Mazgay, Jum Clark, Dick Tilton, "Dutch" Estadt, Bob Harris and Jim McCauley.

Barnhouse In the past the seniors of Cald well high school have never taken a trip or done anything together at the end of their high school careers. In most of the city schools and even in the schools of some of our smaller neighbors the seniors go on a trip, usually to Washington. This year the seniors of Caldwell de cided to take a similar trip. This, of course, brought up the question of expense. To meet this the seniors have sponsored various projects throughout the year. Before Christmas they sponsored a pre-season dance at the gymnasium also just be fore Christmas they sold tradi tional holly wreaths and had a bake sale. With these and future projects the seniors hope to have sufficient funds to take a trip that would be both educa tional and entertaining. Exams Anyone visiting Caldwell high school last week would have found everyone studying as though their lives depended on it. The reason for all this intense studying? Mid-term examina tions! The exams were given last Thursday and ^Friday. The schedule was arranged so that those who were not taking tests at a certain time were free to leave the grpunds during that time. This probably explains why some of you saw students down town at what seemed like odd fyours. Dance Last Friday, January 14, after the basketball game with Dres den ,the student council spon sored a dance at the high school gym. The chaperons were Mrs. Alexander Walton and Mrs. Donald Mc-Diffitt. Polio Game A benefit game for the March of Dimes campaign will be held at the school gymn, Tuesday evening, Feb. 1, when the Red skins play the Purple and White Riders from Belle Valley. This will be the only opportunity for the students and public to see Caldwell tangle with a top notch county team and a large crowd is anticipated. All proceeds, after expenses have been deducted, will go to the March of Dimes. Come one and all and pay what V(u want to at the door. 2 6 6 1 1 9 COMPLETE AUTO SEWICS CHEVROLET COMPANY Telephone 261 Miller Street Advanced Automatic Washer -fwnwirmrl & w.
