Janesville Knocks Kenosha Out of Biig Eight 2hd Half Rally Produces 57-51 Upset Victory Schloemer Posts 22 But Bluebirds Enjoy Balanced Scoring By JERRY PFARR KENOSHA Janesvillc's Bluebirds played one of their better basketball games here Friday night, scoring a 57-51 victory and knocking Kenosha's Red Devils out of the Big Eight Conference lead. A capacity crowd of 1,400 packed Kenosha's obsolete gym and saw Coach Bob Kruegcr's Bluebirds break open the game in the last quarter. It was 45-45 with six minutes to play when Janesville got the next nine points to make it with a minute and a half left. That cinched it. Tlie loss dropped Kenoshi to second place with a 6-2 record.

Madison East took over the lead with a 6-1 record and Janesville improved its mark to 4-3. Schloemer Scores 22 Cool Pat Schloemer, the class of the conference, scored 22 points for Janesville, and George Becker, the most effective Kenoshan, scored 16. Krueger said after the game that he thought his team hustled well and did a fine job of holding its own in the rebounding department against Ihe bigger, more rugged Red Devils. But the thing that pleased the Janesville coach most was the hint of a balanced scoring attack. While Schloemer was pouring in 22 points, including 10 out of 14 free throws, Don Webb contributed nine points, R.

K. Mitby eight, Tim Cullen six and Jim Westby five. The latter four came up with key baskets and free throws just when Janesville needed them to fight off Kenosha's spurts. Break 45-45 Deadlock Webb, the 6-foot-l senior, was at his best when Janesville sewed up the game in the last quarter. Schloemer broke the 45-45 dead- Jock by scoring on a drive-in shot.

Webb tallied on a hook, followed it with a free throw, then scored again on a fast break, Kenosha took the ball but Webb intercepted a pass which led to Schloemer's scoring on a rebound shot and it was was beaten. The Red Devils got six points to Janesville's three in the frantic final 90 seconds but there wasn't any doubt about the outcome. Kenosha Takes Lead Kenosha had taken a 19-12 lead in the first quarter and enjoyed a 25-15 advantage midway in the second period. Then Janesville outscored the Red Devils 124 in the next four minutes to trail by only 29-27 at the half. Culle.i and Ot'erberg came through with baskets in that spurt to help Schloenner and Webb carry the load.

Mitby, Westby, Cullen and Jim O'Connor, along w'th Schloemer, did the scoring in third quarter as Janesville enjoyed an J8-13 edge to take a 45-42 lead entering the last quarter. Steve Kirk, 6-foot-2 senior who is one of Janisville's best reserves, missed the game because of illness. Janesville's sophomores beat Kenosha's Pink Devils 67-63 in the preliminary as Mares scored 23 points and Anderson 18.

The American Forestry Assn. is revising its list of "Big Tree Champions" this year and Wisconsin may have some to report in this group, for some species now have been planted here more than 100 years ago. ft pi ft Weber 5 2 OlJerdee 1 2 1 Heitzman 2 2 liMortcnson 0 0 2 Hlavachek 6 5 2lDreher 1 0 5 Oliver 0 2 0: Anderson I 0 2 Purdue 0 0 O'DeRemer 2 0 3 W.Schn'berger 8 1 Olson 3 0 1 Wahl 2 0 0 0 0 1 E.Schn'berger 0 0 0 Hook I 3 Brewer 2 0 Byrnes 2 1 2 Patchen 0 1 li 25 20 11 3 20 BrookbTl 4 Albany 17 20 17 Free throws 10, Brooklyn 5. a 57, 'Brooklyn 34.

TIME OUT! LODGE BAR There are many reasons for preparing a list of e.xotic trees. The success of these horticultural varieties often reflects local seasonal conditions and the public can benefit from past experience with these trees before ordering planting stock.

However, the present listing primarily is aimed at obtaining more records on American species which were not native in Wisconsin, but are planted here. The following trees are only a few of the largest e.xolic species growing in this area. All circumferences taken 4 feet above ground: Northern catalpa 13S inches. Ginkgo (Maidenhair tree) inches at 3 feet above ground (105 inches at 41 feet above ground because of unnatural formation) located in Whitewater across from college campus. European larch, 96 inches in circumference, in Mineral Point.

Horse chestnut, inches on state capitol grounds. Small- leaved European linden, 62 inches, at Green Shutters, Whitewater. Saucer magnolia, 19 inches, in Madison. Norway maple, 90 inches, on State College campus. Record Silver Poplar Whitewater.

European mountain ash, 16 inches, Madison. Common persimmon, 72 inches, at School for Deaf, Delavan. The largest Scotch pine listed is 125 inches in circumference, in the Cooksville Church Cemetery. Russian Olive tree, ZAVt inches, Madison. Norway spruce, 164 inches, Columbia County, and another 79 inches located in Mifton.

Tulip tree, 55 inches, on Stata College campus, Whitewater, Other e.xotics include Ohio buckeye, osage orange and shining sumac, which may be found in this area. The largest exotic tree listed a silver poplar, measuring 219 inches, located in Orfordville. The tree is estimated to be 250 years old. We would like to know how this giant got here. If the tree is 250 years old.

and orignally frorn Europe or Asia, who planted it or how did the seeds get here? Back in 1710 (250 years there were no white settlers In Rock County. If anyone knows about the history of this big trea please let us know. The photo shows game manager, Ray Kyro, standing next to mailbo.x in front of the tree located across Highway 13 from Ephraim Brunsvold's welding shop. Record Number ot Hawks, Snowy Owls Invade State MADISON numbers of hawks and snowy owls are eating well in Wisconsin this year. "Their supply of food field tremendous." notes Joe Rigney, chief meterologist at the U.S.

Weather Bureau here. The so-called open winter is responsible for the condition. Normally mice can elude their airborne enemies by tunneling into snow. Prof. Joseph Hickey of Forestry and Wildlife Management at the University of Wisconsin said quail, pheasants and Hugarian partridge also will have more to eat this winter because of the lack of snow cover.

Find More Feed "There's bound to be a lower mortality rate because the three species will find more feed and weed seeds available," he said. Hickey said game birds should not suffer "significantly" from the hawk population. "Most of the hawks coming in here are of the snowy, marsh, and red tail variety," he said, "and their diet doesn't include many game birds." Both the weather bureau and the university have received word of large numbers of hawks and owls. Come From Arctic "The flight of snowy owls from the treeless Arctic tundra to the Midwest and Atlantic Coast area is the biggest in 30 years," Hickey said. "It was a tremendous flight and there are considerable numbers in Wisconsin," he added.

The owl invasion is attributed to low fluctuation in the north thij year of migrating lemmings a rodent iiamed for traveling. The lemmings pick a destination, hold a steady course, devour vegetation as they travel and finally plunga into the sea and drown. When lemmings are scarce, as they ara this winter, snowy owls migrate. Weigh 4-5 Pounds The number of weigh 4 to 5 pounds, stand feet high and have a 5-foot has made it possible for the UW Zeology Department to set up the first worthwhile snowy owl research project in many years. The birds are caught in baited traps, sprayed with quick-drying enamel in strategic spots and released.

Reports of sightings of the colored birds and when and where spotted will figure in the project 's findings. Markings are visible for considerable distances. So far 11 owls have been trapped and marked in the Madison area. "If you ever do get out on the slope, remember your blood type isMartmiStol!"
