FLYERS' HANGAR HONOR ALUMNI

Martin l( untz Somewh ere among the fragments of my New Year's resolution is a string which fell from my finger to remind me to follow up on my previous memo. Today our mailman on his Schwinn built by-cycle ( o h eln me that's right by-cycle ) brightened the sub-zero recesse of our mail box with the Alumnus magazine. The Alumnus inspired a timely sugge tion to report the proceeding of the "San Gabriel Valley Chapt r" meetingheld in Arcadia this night.

It is a ttended by the writer, as thP pilot, his wife, as co-pilot, and hi da ughter, clas of '70, as co-co-pilot.

After the last month's budget was balanced, the nightly party- dance was held to the accom paniment of the class of '70's Christmas juke box highlighted by renditions of " Pop Goes the Weasel" and " Pus y Cat" (you see, it's such a poor and lonely cha pter ).

Cinders, the lucky black chapter cat, was a confused "Sergean t-ata~ms." Last month he wa bodily eJected from the Soro i meeting a an imposter and impersonator. H e was confused, too.

Pictures were then hown of the C~attanooga football game, but by mistake a short reel of the Golden Gloves Boxing Tournamen t was slipped into the fourth quarter, but all members present a ppla ud ed the new White Hope. . It was moved tha t the pilot periodIcally call the M etropolitan News Sheets for more regular listings of our football a nd basketba ll cores, r:;tther than . the venomou splashe given to an Isolated southern skirmish. If Kutztown T eachers can be listed so can we.

Sports R ound-up: The pilot and the Class of '70 res umed their unbroke n se ri es of nightl y wrestling m a tches on the spa re bed to the eternal consternation of the co-pilot.

The Class of '70 always wins from the puffing, exha usted dish eveled pilot, because the Clas of '70 keeps in circus trim by its daily trapeze act on the clothes line supports, to the continued eternal consterna tion of the co-pilot and the silly glee of the pilot.

Lately, the members have a lso been engaged in nightly log-rolling contests to the fire place to keep the " tropic" cold out, but the sun till shovels our snow. The clas. of '70 made its first snowball, but dropped it promptly with the classic observation "Icy, isn't it?"

Someday, somehow, we' ll have to get a southern California Cha pter started . Th ere must be enough "permanent tourists" hereabouts.

CINCINNATI CLUB MEETING Thurs. -Feb. 17 Hotel Alms 8 p.m.

'"OUR TOWN" PRESENTED BY PLAYERS This is too la te to be news but I would like to ta ke this opport~nity to relate the thri ll I experienced on O ct.

16, 1948, when I visited for the first time since 1913, what was then St. M a ry's College.

Rev. Victor Boa rman, Mr. John Daily and I stopped for about two hours on our return from the Superior Council meeting of the St. Vincent D e Paul in Boston.

Unfortunately it was on a Saturday afternoon and the entire place seemed deserted . We found three of our home town boys a nd vi ited with them for a while, but saw no member of the faculty nor any of the prie ts or brothers who were there a t the time of my a ttendance. We had a very nice visit with our local boys, Charles Mudd and the Baumgarten brothers and also a couple of their friends.

I hope to make a longer visit some time and perhaps renew a t least a few old acqu aintance .

Sincerely your , Martin S. Lancaster ' 13 Owensboro, K y.

U.D. PLAYERS IN UNIQUE DRAMA A cast of fifty, turn of the century costuming and a scenery-les tage, a wedding, and a fun eral are some of the unusual angles that make OUR TOWN one of the mo t talked about plays of our time.

In th e University Players' production at the D ayton Art Institute, Feb. 19 and 20, Jim Walsh of Conneaut, Ohio will be seen as the Stage Man~ ager, George Biersack and Mary V an Dyke Brown as Dr. and Mrs. Gibbs, N ed Cofer and Peggy D avis as Mr. and Mr. Webb, Tom Alredge as George Gibbs and R osemary Busic as Emily Webb, and Jim F arrell of New J ersey as Joe Stoddard.

Without the use of scenery or props the actors develop life in a small New England town. T~e first act outlines the history of the town, and reveals something of the ch aracter of the place. The second act concern the love of George Gibbs and Emily Webb. The third act is staged a t the town cemetery where many of the townspeople we have come to know are awaiting the greater understanding.

Tickets for the play which are 90c may be obtained by writing to: the University of Dayton Players University of Dayton, Dayton 9, 0.

Put out in front by Bob Flynn's two-pointer the University of D ayton Flyers were never headed as they out ran M anchester' unbeaten Spa rtan 57-48 on the home hardwood J a n. 4.

Rip West u ing the rejuvenated hooting eye tha t he developed during the Eastern wing potted 20 points to cop the scoring honors for the evening. Brian M cCall, classy ce nte r co ll ared M a n ch e ter's ace bucket'- buster, Wendell Beck, and pulled him off his twenty point per game average, holding him to nine.

Spraying the basket with one-handed pu h shots the H oosiers led 8 to 2 in the first five minutes only to see gua rds Dick Campbell and Bob Flynn break up their attack and turn the tide against them.

MARSHALL Racking up their fourth win in a row a nd the fourth in basketball history over M a rshall' "Big Green" the Flyers derailed Cam H enderson's famed fast break 67-55 before 1500 roaring fans a t the Coliseum J an. 10.

Bill Ginn and Rip West, a pair of seasoned veterans who have suffered the indignity of being virtually run out of the gym by tha t fast break, paid back the score with interest counting 35 points between them to sink the "Thundering H erd" under a barrage of baskets. Ginn looped in long shots and one h anded push hots with heart stopping accuracy to top the scoring with 20 markers. Rip West the ancient set hot threat, sank ' 15 counters to rank fourth among the Flyers in the season's scoring race. Guard Dick Campbell and Center Brian M cCall - two ball hawks - combined to handcuff the H endersonmen, mis ing only forward Bill Toothman, the top marker for the Marshalls. Toothman bucketed 22 points to be top man for the night.

Coach H enderson stated after:. the game that this year's team is much improved over the Flyer team that upset Marshall last year a t Hu.ntin~­ ton. The main difference bemg m their pa sing and all a round speed.

Crippled by the loss of Bnan M cCall because of a twisted knee in the first h alf the Flyer led until a fielder and one pointer by We leyan's elongated center Jud Milhon _rut the .Bishops in front to stay. Mdhon p1cked up 12 points as did his twin brother Bill. We leyan' Captain Chuck Buttermore topped the scoring for both teams.

Rip West notched 10 points to the tally stick to carry top honors for D ayton with Bill Ginn and Bri ~n. M cCall in the runnerup spots gammg 9 tallies apiece. M cCall returned to action late in th e econd h alf in a onelegged effort to tie u p Milhon and stem the We leyan tide before th e Flyer got wamped, all to no avail.

OHIO UNIVERSITY Idled fo r a week by final exams the Flyers returned to action a t Athens, meeting Ohio University's up and coming Bobcats on J a n. 21 and ta king them into camp 52-47.

With the Bobcats leading and determined tha t they would stay in the lead as h alf time rolled around, Coach Blackburn decided that desperate mea ure were the order of the day. Inserting M cCall into the game he called on the big Irishman to puli the game out of the fi re for the R ed a nd Blue. Whipping in three fast buckets to shove the D aytonia ns into the lead Brian kept them a head the rest of the way by socking in 12 points for the night's effort.

Gene Wolke celebrated hi return to the line-up by bringing home 11 points a nd putting on a briliiant exhibition of defen ive basketball that came within an ace of completely . stalling the Bobcat . a ttack.

Bob Dickey, Ohw center, aching back and all wa top man in the point making department with 13 tallies in the book.

MARSHALL Playing two games in two days the Flyers moved into Huntington for a return engagement with M a rshall's "Big Green" in a contest tha t saw the Flyers handicapped by the loss of five men via the foul route as they dropped the contest 60-40.

Rip West shifted into high gear to roll up 15 point and pull up even with Marshall's Bill Toothman as top

D efensive cog for the Flyers was Di ck (R azor ) Ca mpbell who collected two fielders and eight one pointers and was in the word of a Huntington Sports writer worth at least ten more to D ayton under the basket on the defen e.

KENTUCKY WESLEYAN Returning to D ayton on J an . 25 the Flyers crashed into the victory column for the tenth time by cru hing an inept K entucky Wesleyan team 73-40 in a wild melee that saw Coach Blackburn clear his bench of pl ayer s a nd pr ac tic a ll y eve r yon e break into the scoring column.

H eroes of the victory were th e " Littl e Gi a nt" Bob Fl ynn , Di ck Campbell and speedster Gene Joseph.

Flynn was a one m an hurrican e in the first half sinking six of eight shots from the floor. Campbell took up the torch in the second half slamming in sh ot from all over the fl oor to tie Flynn as the top scorer of the evening with 15 points.

Joseph can lay claim to the titl e of " Phantom Banta m Sh adow," as h e n ever gave Woods a fighting chance to get a good shot a t the basket. In th e dying minutes of the game with Joseph on the bench Wood did get going to collect 14 points for the evening, which is way below his normal output of 25 points per gam e.
