(Continued from page 1) of the air which I didn’t believe anyone would be able to get—and he was completely surrounded by three or four Citadel Bulldogs. So that is encouraging. The game was a good one, even though the Indians lost it. I see the Indians’ sports writer Bobbie Baker blames the loss on the de fense, but I don't agree with him. It’s true the Citadel man broke through the line and made a touchdown which won the game for the Citadel, but on the other hand, Newberry was in a scoring position any number of times and the offense never could make It over, primarily because of fum bles. It was just an off-day, that’s alL Coach Kirkland said The Cita del deserved to win, and I agree with that, but I won’t agree that Citadel has the better team. Had the Indians played the ball they played against Guilford, Elon and other teams, they would have won the game. If any defense was responsible, it was the hard hit ting defense of the Citadel caus ing Quarterback Brabham to fumble so much. I still think it was just an off day. I didn’t start this item out to be a sports writer. I Seem to have gotten off the track. What I start ed out to say was that 1 yelled to my heart’s content down there and no one looked at me as though I were a little off. Last game I went to at Newberry, when. I yell ed a couple of times, people turned and looked at me as if to ask “what’s the matter with you?” 1 tried to restrain myself a little af ter that, but after all, if I can’t get excited at a football game, es pecially when those Indians are out there playing an outstanding game, why go to the game at all? Well, when Turkey and P. C. day roll around, I’m going to yell, no matter what the other spectators think. Guess I’ll just have to get in the college cheering section, although I don’t think they did much at the last game here eith er. They, too, made more noise at the Citadel game than they did on their own home grounds. Guess the noise of the Citadel band from the other side pepped them up a little. I'll be glad when Newberry college has its marching band ajl organized and ready to add a little pep to the football games.

Remember: there is no substitute for INSURED savings. m Newberry Federal Savings & Loan Ass’n. -An Institution Devoted to Thrift and Home Ownership” ASSETS OVER $7,725,000.00 John F. Clarkson, Pres. J. K. Willingham, Sec.-Treas. NEWBERRY, S. C. As boys, we like to throw things. And we did it in varied ways. When we got our first crosscut saw, it gave us some smoothe stumps to work from. A jagged, slanting stump, like an axe makes, wouldn’t work for this. We’d get a piece of one by three inch board about three feet long. Place it on a stump, letting at least half of it hang over the edge. We’d weight the stump end down with a rock about the size of a goose egg. Then we’d hit the ex tended end hard with a heavy green stick about the size of a baseball bat. That would send the rock far aloft in a great arc. The harder you’d hit, the higher and further the rock would go. We had regular contests with this, marking where each fellow’s rock hit ground. That was rather dangerous, with kkids standing all around. There was one safe spot, however, and we soon learned that. It was to the back of the stump from the protruding end of the board. And the waiting contestants stayed there, each with his choice rock in hand. And the rocks had to all be of about the same size, or the boy couldn’t compete. We’d lam bast those rocks for hours on end. Country kids in our time could make their fun as they went along. I guess they still can. For boys are just that way, yon know. Insured Savings!
