The following completed the work for their degrees in tht summer of 1936: Academic: Elizabeth Anding, Delhi; Jean Browne, Jonesboro; Will H. Cotton, Oak Grove; DUBACH, April Dubach high school Plungers defeated the Simsboro nine Thursday afternoon 8 to 2, to make it 3 consecutive wins for this week. Tuesday, the locals defeated Junction City 30 to 7, and Wednesday they won from Hico 16 to 9. Dubach played Junction City Friday and returns a game at Simsboro Saturday. Cubby Jones, star port-sider, went the entire route for Dubach and allowed only three hits to help his cause along.

The "big boy" hit for two bases in the sixth, scoring two runs. Every member of the local squad again saw action in today's game and the new-comers gave a good account of themselves in eighth and ninth innings as they played scoreless ball and committed but one error. The Plungers go to Junction City Friday and return a game at Simsboro Saturday. The Simsboro game was substituted for a Tech Freshman game that was postponed by Coach Hogg. The locals seem to be coming around in good shape 4U with no sore arms.

So far, they have lost only one game on an every, day schedule that carries through the North Louisiana Rally. C. R. Colvin, No. 2 southpaw on the locals six-man pitching staff, is slated for the Junction City game.

E. Harrist, No. 1 right- hander, will work the Simsboro game Saturday. Next week Dubach meets the Tech Freshmen, two games; Bernice, Hico, Gibsland and Ouachita Parish High. Even the most optimistic supporters of the Dubach high school will admit that is a big assignment.

If they can pull through a week like that with an even record, they should go a long way in the North Louisiana and State Rallies.

Lefty Hinton, slender Clay southpaw, yesterday was forced to stand aside and see a three-hit hurling masterpiece go for naught as his mates were unable to get runners around when the opportunities came and a result, Tech dropped the third' game of tire" -current series with Purdue 2-0. Hinton's pei formance was only a shade more brilliant than that of Arnold Bred- water, slender Purdue righthander, pitching to his twin brother, Arthur, and holding the Bulldogs to five scattered safeties.

Bredwater sent twelve of the Bulldogs back to the bench via the strikeout route and walked but four. Hinton struck out fice and walked three, however, the Purdue sluggers were hitting at bad ones most of the day, and as a result were popping out or rolling easy grounders down to the infield. Two of the hits off Hinton went for extra bases, however, only one of them figured in the scoring. Breslin led off in the fourth with a double to left center, after which Adkins and Gresham booted two rollers in a row to allow him to cross the plate. Poulas followed Breslin with a roller to short that Adkins juggled momentarily then threw wild to first, after which, Thompson rolled one down to Gresham, the third Backer's throw going into the dirt before reaching Horton at first, allowing Poulas to score.

Arnold Bredwater accounts for the only other basehit off Hinton by sliding a triple off first base with two out in the ninth. He died at third, however, as Dean sent a towering fly to left that Charlie Caston took in with ease. The Bulldogs ran into considerable hard luck in having their scoring opportunities choked off, the break coming in the 8th when Burl started the inning by going safe on Breslin's low throw to first after taking a grounder. Adams a terrific liner back at the pitcher, and Bredewattr it with his gloved hand, doubling Burt off Short-stop, Jimmy Thompson made a sensational running catch of line drive over the infield in the 6th, with two out and the bases full to end the only other threat the Canines made during the game. Burt had walked, Adk.ns had moved him up with a singh; to center, and McGugan had alkod to clog the bases when went back after Creshum's certain base- hit.

Thiimpj in, iirsl up in the ninth drove urn 1 to right that would thrown out at first base by Lefty Hinton, after Thompson had failed to touch the bag in rounding the nitial corner. Arthur Bredewater was forced to retire from the game in the ninth when a foul tip off the bat of Jresham struck his throwing hand and tore a gash between the first two fingers. He was treated by a local physician, and will be back the game within a few days, Purdue coaches stated here this morning.

Time 2:20. Captain Hal Condon Justus assumed command of Company 4410 February 9, 1937, relieving First Lieut. Ralph S. Leblanc, tour of duty expired February 15. Captain Justus came to this company with nearly three years of varied experience with the Civilian Conservation Corps.

He has served in" District the Sac ramento District of the Ninth Corps Area and has had two previous tours of six months each in this district. His last tour before coming to Ruston was a Camp F-5, Company 5406, at Dry Prong. The Camp at Dry Prong was and still is, the higest rating company in the Olla Sub-District. After taking over the company and looking over the camp, Capt. Justus stated to the official personnel and the company assembled, that with everybody putting forth their best effort and all pulling together, this camp could easily become the best in this sub- district and possibly the best in the entire district.

Steps have already been taken for the rapid improvement of the camp and we have great hopes for the future. In keeping with the spirit of the CCC throughout the nation Company 4410, La. SCS-5, Ruston, will celebrate the fourth birthday of the organization by holding an open house celebration. Many people that have visited the camp in the last few weeks have efc- pressed the opinion that there were many interesting things in the CCC camps that the outside never realizes exist. The aim of this celebration is to try to get as many jf the local people to visit US and for themselves what really goes on inside of a Camp.

The work that is done on the projects In field can be easily seen in passing on the highways but the life that a boy leads in camp, the recreational activities that he takes part in, and the educational that is in progress can only be known by visiting a camp and having one of the supervisory personnel show him through the en- lire camp. "We are hoping that a large and curious group of local people will visit our camp and see all that on in a CCC Commander Justus said today. "Things that usually are interesting to visitors are the educational building, ihe recreation hall, the mess hall, ihe barracks, the wood work shop, Ihe infirmary, and the and all of these places can be seen on Sunday, April 4, and a member of the personnel will gladly show anyone the entire camp and explain it to him."

In a letter addressed to Harvey Nelson, director of instrumental music at Ruston high school, I. Lincoln Igou, president of the Louisiana Music Education Association, has expressed high enthusiasm over the local high school orchestra's accomplishments at the recent music festival at Natchitoches. Mr. Igou also complimented Mr. Nelson highly upon the shown in the orchestra during past several months, and suggested that Mr.

Nelson make every effort to take the local orchestra to the National High School Orchestra Contest scheduled to be held in Columbus, Ohio, in May.

Nelson, "You are to be doubly complimented, not only on being one of the very few schools in the state to have advanced to the point of recognizing the value and opportunities of orchestral activities, but also because your group might well be proud of its even if the state were full of orchestras." Mr. Nelson stated here today that he is now making an effort to raise the necessary funds with which to pay the expenses of carrying the Ruston orchestra to the National meet, and will appreciate any assistance the public- can render.
