High School Eleven Topples Celina 40-30 To Play At St. Marys Friday Twice bested by close margins in WBL play so far this fall, the St. Marys crew will likely prove to be highly keyed up for this week’s im portant tilt which may go a long way toward determining which of the two teams will end with a mar gin in the win column so far as league standings are concerned. Although St. Marys lost to Celina, which Bluffton bested last Friday 40 to 30, the odds do not greatly favor the Pirates, who were forced to come up with some of the sea son’s most spectacular plays in downing the Bulldogs in the game played here. In the Friday night scoring pa rade neither team showed much in the way of an adequate defense but both charged up and down the field all night long in one of the most thrilling exhibitions witnessed here in a long time. Celina exploded for a touchdown early in the first quarter, which gave the visitors a temporary lead, soon erased when the Pirates march ed downfield to get a touchdown of their own, and then annexed the noon they were attending a wedding morning for Bucyrus where Mrs. Suter’s parents live. In the after of one of Mrs. Suter’s cousins. Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Steiner en tertained all their children at a family dinner in honor of their daughter and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. .Clyde Gleaves of Dallas, Texas. Those in attendance were Mr. and Mrs. Robert Henderson, Mr. and Mrs. Orin Welty, Mr. and Mrs. Lester Wiemert all of Lima, Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Steiner of Mendon, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Ralston and family of Norwalk nad Miss Betsy Zuerchei’ of Pandora. The Boy Scout Court of Honor will be held in Continental on Tues day. There will be a dinner before the meeting. The Scout council and their wives are asked to attend. The Bicentennial Club will have their travel program on Wed., Oct. 25th They plan to go to Berne, Ind., to a furniture company and also to Bluffton, Ind., to see the new Mennonite church that was erected there. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Light of Ft. Wayne Ind. spent over night Thurs day with Mrs. Clara Light and then continued on their way to Cleveland. They were luncheon guests with Mrs. Light on Sunday when they were on their way back to Ft. Wayne. Wool is at its best when steam pressed. 'CHEVROLET extra point to go out in front. Each team tallied again in the second quarter, Celina getting one touchdown and Bluffton two, and the Pirates left the field at halftime with a 20 to 12 lead. It was Celina’s edge again in the third quarter, however, for the visi tors got two touchdowns while Bluff ton tallied one, and going into the final period the Pirates were out in front 27 to 24. Bluffton lengthened the lead with an early fourth-quarter touchdown, but Celina again struck back with one of their own to trail again by only three points. With time rapid ly running out, the visitors came up with another threatening march, and had driven deep into Pirate terri tory, with fans holding their breaths when it looked as if Celina might score again and erase Bluffton’s slender three-point margin. It was at this point that Don Oates went high in the air to in tercept a Celina pass, carrying the visitors’ hopes for victory, and then raced 85 yards back upfield for the clinching Bluffton touchdown. Oates fell across the goal line just as the final gun sounded. John Triplehorn powered across for three of Bluffton’s touchdowns Leland Garmatter scored one, a bril liant 90-yard kickoff return at the opening of the second period and Oates and Don Triplehorn each scored a touchdown. Studies indicate 9 out of 10 farm fires resulted from carelessness in 1949. t' “Don’t Be Shy, Dad!” Your portrait wou^ make a dandy 'gifA,ftfr the family!!
