PAGE EIGHT Finding the scoring spark after dominating play for three quarters but being unable to cross the payoff stripe, Bluffton High gridders ham mered two touchdowns across th® goal in the last period to defeat Co lumbus Grove, 12 to 0, in a game under the lights at Harmon field last Friday night. Lanky Fred Herrmann, sophomore fullback, plunged thru the line for both tallies, after his bullseye, .pass ing had set the 'iouchdapn stage i t. A t^ng of^Wdst in the morning air, leaves turning from' grt,m*r“tb‘ brown, days that end all too quickly and the thud of footballs at Harrton stadiurrj and College field all serve as reminders that another football season is well under way Bluff ton High’s aggressive team got its first test of the season in defeating Columbus Grove, 12 to 0, last week, and this Friday finds the Pirates tackling Ada’s veteran eleven here at Harmon field Bluffton col lege’s untried aggregation also will see action Friday, meeting Mt, Union at Alliance The shape of things to come in the Western Buckeye league can somewhat roughly be determined as the result of last week’s play Bluffton, Celina, Bellefontaine and Van Wert all were victorious Van Wert, defending champion, whose record was marred last year only by a tie with Bluffton, edged Bryan, 13 to 6 Bellefontaine was victor over Urbana, 14 to 0, and Celina trounced Rockford, 34 to 0 Wapakoneta lost to Ada, 32 to 6, and St. Marys took a 22 to 13 Bluffton High Finds Scoring Punch In Last Quarter To Beat Grove, 12-0 SPORTS IN SHORTS ekch time. In the first half the light, but ag gressive, Bluffton team held the edge in ground gained, but inexperience and a little too much eagerness made it impossible for them to put to gether any sustained drive that might result in scoring. It was a different story in the last two periods, however, and after pushing the heavier Columbus Grove outfit all over the field in the third stanza, the Pirates finally broke into i beating at the hands of Sidney. Onjy two J’utnam, cpuntyf schools are playiqg football thifc year, Leipsic having disbanded itp eleven for the duration of the war Columbus Grove and Pandora are the only .teams putting elevens on the field Grove lost to Bluffton in its opening game, and Pandora was defeated by Shawnee, 6 to 0. Arlington High, coached by Jim Morrison, who left Mt. Cory after several successful seasons, opened its year with an auspicious 27 to 0 victory over Upper Sandusky Findlay led for two quarters but was bested by Columbus Aquinas, 7 to 6, when the visitors tallied in the last period. Coach Burcky of the Beavers will start three Bluffton boys in the line up against Mt. Union at Alliance Friday night. Slated are Dick Wenger at quarter and Norman Beidler and Paul Klassen at half back positions. Lyle Sommers of Pandora will also get the nod to start at fullback. “No Hunting” Signs Durable Waterproof Stock 6 for 25c Bluff ten News Office THIS NEWSPAPER, I YEM, AND FIVE FAMOUS MAGAZINES For both newspaper and magazines GROUP A True Story ............ lYr.

In setting the’ stage For the first tally, Fred Herrmann tossed passes to Weldon Deppler and Neil Schmidt for gains that took the oval deep into enemy territory. Then Herr mann lugged the ball across the goal in a sledge-hammer thrust through the Grove line. A few minutes later Herrmann’s accurate passing again paid divi dends. A 25-yard toss to Halfback Zimmerly put the ball in scoring po sition for the second time, and Herr mann again drove over the goal. Two placement kicks in the try for the extra points were blocked. Columbus Grove made only one scoring threat, and that came in the last half when Hilty picked up a fumbled ball and raced to the Bluff ton 25-yard line before he was haule down from behind. ^Bluffton’s de fense tightened1 heroically, however, and the Pirates took over at that point. Altho light and made up for the most part of players seeing their first year as regulars, the Bluffton team played aggressive, heads-up football in their opening start. In their aerial attack, the Pirates were particularly adept, with Fred Herr mann’s accurate tossing easily the standout feature of the game.

A. Howe. When the suit was filed last September Locher and Huber indi cated to the town council that they had instituted court action as a last resort to deal with the evils of stream pollution because there was nothing being done by the munici pality to afford relief. They. reaffirmed that unless some thing was done by the town to effect relief, court action would proceed. When asked what steps they would consider adequate, the landowners replied that they were interested only in elimination of the present stream pollution and measures to be employed were for the town to de termine. Have Plans The mayor had communication with the engineering firm of Champe, Finkbeiner & Associates of Toledo which drafted plans for a proposed sewer system here two years previous. The proposal to issue bonds for the project, sub mitted to a popular vote lost at that time by a small margin. Altho voted down at the election here in 1939, the project is still on file in the Toledo office of the WPA, the Mayor stated. Also available for preliminary estimates would be plans which were drafted by the engineering firm at that time. With WPA activities considerably curtailed because of war activities and construction materials made unavailable because of war demands it is unlikely that work on construc tion of a sewage disposal system could be started for the duration of the war, it was stated. Cost of a complete sewer system as voted on in 1939 under WPA aid setup was estimated by engineers at $400,000. Of this amount the municipality was to finance one fourth, or $100,000. The latter amount was planned to be raised by $80,000 in- general obligation bonds and $20,000 in sewage revenue bonds. Cost of the system if installed under private contract, without federal aid was estimated at that time at $250,000. Under this latter plan there would have been no federal WPA grant and the entire cost would then have beeh met by the town. It was not indicated at the Mon day night meeting as to what legal action would be taken after the de positions are filed.

Union Friday Bluffton college gridders will get their first test of the 1942 season this Friday when they travel to Al liance for a contest with Mt. Union’s formidable Ohio conference outfit, The Beavers will go into the con test with only 10 days practice be hind them, and. Coach A. C. Burcky has been working his -squad rigor ously in preparation for the assign ment. Starting lineup for the Beavers will be: Kerr, left end Fretz, left tackle Paul Soldner, left guard Simcox, center Hugus, right guard Martin, right tackle Fred Soldner, right end Wenger, quarter Beidler, left half Klassen, right half Sommers, fullback. Altho little is known of the strength of this year’s Mt. Union team, it is a foregone conclusion that the larger enrollment of the Ohio conference school will permit it to put a heavier, more experienced out fit on the field. Experience is at a premium on the Bluffton team, with only six let termen in uniform. Coach Burcky has Wenger, Hugus and Sommers as backfield men and on the line are Fretz, Soldner and Kerr. Martin and Simcox, reserves from last year, give promise of helping to plug gaps in the line. Of the squad of 24 working out under Coach Burcky about half are freshmen, some of whom will get an opportunity to show their merit in the game at Alliance. Following the game with Mt. Un ion this Friday, the Beavers will tangle with Kenyon at Gambier next week, then make their first home appearance of the season against Capital here on October 10. 3-29c Delicious Small Pies M-Z SUGAR Pure Granulated Lb Ge MASON JARS—Complete at 69c CAN RUBBERS Extra Heavy Red 5 25c MATCHES A-l Quality 's' 4c
