Warriors Lose To Howells, 41-37 By W. A. ODUM The Warriors hit a cold streak in the last couple of minutes against Howells, lost a 41-37 game. In the last 30. seconds with Howells leading 39-37, the Warriors had five straight shots at bucket within range, but nothing happened.

Howells then hustled the ball to the other end of the court and sunk a controversial counter just as the buzzer buzzed. The official ruled it good was it. The Warriors played pretty good ball most of the way, and held 6'5" Wragge and sharp shooting Molacek pretty well in check not quite enough. Bill Gainey turned in another good andewas rebounding all game, addition to caging 11 points. Dave Kracl had 13 to lead, and also some fine rebounding.

However, the Howells kids were a bit too good on swishing them and outscored Schuyer, 18-13, on field goals. For Howells, Wragge was guarding the bucket and several times stuffed short shots right back down the throats of the shorter Warriors. Molacek had 12 points who quarterbacked the Bobcats, tossed in seven in addition to a flashy floor game. '57 Best wishes to our friends! May it be a very Happy New Year!

It was a horse race the first half, all tied up at 16 apiece. Then the young Warriors shaded the Howells kids, 16-11, in the third period to take a five point lead.

8 9 16 13 46 The high school squads and the junior high squads are gameless until after the first of the year. The high school squad was to begin workouts Wednesday of this week with a couple of hours after supper each night. They meet David City, Friday, Jan. 4, here, and then go to Columbus, Saturday, Jan. 5, to tackle Hulsebus which in our book, will be quite a test.

To date the Discoverers haven't been a ball fire, but still believe that they will be a tough outfit before the campaign gets much older. Although the Warriors have floundered a bit in their first four tussles, we feel quite sure they will smother David City. The Davids are winless to date and don't appear to have any great potential, having taken some terngs in their early season tests. Junior high squads will work two days of vacation this coming Saturday and Monday at 2 p. m.

Their first struggle after school opens will be with St. Bon grade and freshmen on Monday, the 7th, at 6:30 p. m. Both Graders Freshmen have won three without a setback, and are anxious to keep the win string intact. Dope The Blue Eagles were hotter than pistols last week-end and won three in two days.

Saturday night they annihilated a Bellwood team and then took out Columbus in the second part of a doubleheader. Sunday afternoon they took out Fremont in a barnburner. Behind 41-27 at the half, the Eagles warmed up and an 80-76 decision. Fred Longacre tossed in 36 for the Eagles and Morehouse caged 21 for Fremont. Seeing action for the Schuyler crew were Longacre, Jim Flynn, Hans Arps, Red Best, Keith Bailey, Leroy Foust, Mouse Flynn, George Vittera and Bill Balak Fred Longacre's Uehling high school squad is riding high, wide and handsome.

Their latest conquest, and a sweet one, was over their bigger and bitterest rivals, Oakland, by four points. That makes five out of six for Uehling What did you think of Dal Ward's Colorado coach scathing remarks about Nebraska's Orange Bowl game against Duke? He claimed that Nebraska's club was strictly no good to start with. But it was same ball club that but ran the Buffalos off their own ball park, 20-6. The Bowl Day is just around the corner, and there will be some dandies to see and hear. We like Colorado over Clemson in the Orange fracas, but we could be wrong here.

Clemson has a tough running game and Colorado's defense isn't the best, but we believe that John "The Beast" Bayuk cam single wing the Clemsons out of business. We also believe the Baylor-Tennessee game at the Sugar Bowl will be the top struggle and that Baylor will bounce the Vols. At Pasadena, we figure Iowa to cop, and by more than the one point advantage they had during the season. Maybe by two TD's if they haven't spent too much time at the Moulin Rouge and the studios. At the Gator Bowl we like Pitt over Georgia Tech mainly on size and strength the Cotton Bowl we like Syracuse and their All American back Jim Brown, over Texas Christian Schuyler has a newcomer on next year's football schedule.

South Sioux City, a perennially tough customer, will take the place of St. Pats of Fremont, on the Warrior card, and will be here for the second game Kansas is still on top of the National ratings due to Wilt "'The Stilt's" fabulous heicopter shot. One opposing coach has come up with the best defense for Chamberlain that we have heard. He suggests that two players should be assigned the job of holding, Chamberlain's arms date we haven't noticed any change in basketball by the insertion of the 12 foot keyhole lane. The tall boys still get the rebounds, but the giving of the inside positions to defensive men hag possibly cut down the scoring a bit as we see it.
