THE WATERVLIET RECORD
OLUME 72
WATERVLIET, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1955
What's The
Score ?
By Coach Don Rose
I was more than a little perturbed
by an article that appeared in the
"St. Joe Herald Press" last Friday.
1 quote, "An official protest was
entered by both Don Rose and Angelo Turco over officiating in th£|
Watervliet-Pony game. The officials association, however, has no
power to" expel or suspend any os
their flock, which is unfortunate
indeed because the old method ot
coaches and authorities having long
memories will still be the vogue.
Its rather unfortunate because anybody is entitlled to a bad day. But,
in the tough officiation racket, one
bad night and pour taboo for years.
One of the associations reported
that a number of officials wouldn't
touch a game in the Watervliet gym
with a ten loot pole. The reason
was crowd fervor." End of quote.
I wish Ed Lukas, Sports Editor
and author of the article would
have checked with me first. I made
no protest, not even an unofficial
one, I doubt very much if Coach
Turco did. True, some ofiicials
have refused to work games in our
gym. Sometimes our crowds do
get a bit rough, verbally, but most
scnoois have the same problem. I
have never blacklisted any official
and most of them know it. I've
talked with some officials since
the article appeared and none had
heard of any protest.
Tonights game at Berrien is certainly a key game as far as ihe
little Eight is concerned. A win for
us would look real good as far as it
would give us a little breathing
space and tack Berrien with a big
2 in the loss column. A loss, however, would move Berrien into a tie
with us and the pressure would be
terrific on the two of us. We have
one big advantage, if we lose, we
are still in first place,- although
tied. If Berrien should lose they
would be in rough shape. .Therefore,
Berrien must take the initiative and
chances they wouldn't ordinarily
take. Since both Berrien and ourselves are pretty equal in most departments I believe the team with
the best shooting average will end
up on top. Neither team can afford
to make many mistakes because
both clubs have proven they can
take advantage of them. Last year
the clubs met head on at Berrien
and Watervliet hit a good night and
came out on top 68-63. The P a n thers hit 44% of their shots that
night and will need another one
just like it or better to knock down
an ambitious Shamrock five. 1 believe the boys are capable of it if
they can come up with a good, or
even fair, first quarter. All in all
it should be a good ball game.

the two Republicans got two seats
and on one three-member commiitee, one assignment. That was
the pattern Democrats hoped woulu
carry over in the legislature.
So, Republicans in the Senate
rebelled.
After a day of bickering in a secret session, ihe Republican majority on the committees, rejected
the Democratic plea for a proportionate share of the seats.
As it now stands, the Democrats
have much less than a membership on committees than their pro'portionate membership. Republicans say they're just following the
Democratic policy when they iiad
the majority in 1937.

MR. AND MRS. GEORGE McNEES
— Photo by J. Henry Norman
Mr. and Mrs. George McNees of
Watervliet, local residents, will
celebrate their Golden Wedding
anniversary on Sunday, February
13 when their children will entertain at an open house in their
honor, from 2 to 5 in the afternoon,
at the family home, 140 Walnut St.
A cordial invitation is extended
to relatives and friends of the
honored couple.
Mr. and Mrs. McNees were married on Feb. 9, 1905 by the late A.
N. Woodruff.
The bride was the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Albert Polmanteer, while
the groom was the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Timothy McNees. The young
couple began their married life in
Watervliet and have resided here
for the past fifty years.
Mr. McNees spent nearly 25 years
PTA Meeting At
North School
in the employment of the Watervliet Paper Co. and in later years
as a painter. While Mrs. McNees
has a hobby of knitting, crocheting
and embroidering.
Five children were born to Mr.
and Mrs. McNees one of whom died
in infancy.
Four sons reside in
Watervliet; Carl, Raymond, Max
and Leo and eleven grandchildren.
Mrs. Rose McNees, mother of the
groom will assist in the celebration.
Mr. and Mrs. McNees enjoy good
health, he being 69 years of age
and she 67.
Host and hostesses on Sunday
will be Mr. and Mrs. Leo McNees,
Mr. and Mrs. Max McNees, Mr. and
Mrs. Raymond McNees and Mr
and Mrs. Carl McNees.
Last Friday night Watervliet
edged a stubborn Decatur team 49
to 43. Going into the last quarter,
Watervliet held a narrow one point
lead, 33-32, but raced and then went
to work and built up the final six
point margin. It was the Panthers
ninth straight win while Decatur
slipped to 5-4.
The Panthers experienced another cold shooting night, hitting
21 out of 60 for a 30% average,
their poorest of the year. The game
itself was a low scoring affair, with
the Panthers holding a first quarter
lead of 11-6. The score at the half
stood at 22-15 but Decatur caught
fire in the third and closed the gap
to 33-32.
The Raider zone defense worked
very effectively and failure to hit
from outcourt kept the Panthers in
trouble most of the time.
Tonight Watervliet crashes headon into its closest pursuer, Berrien
Springs. The Shamrocks are right
behind the Panthers with an 8-1
i record. A loss by Watervliet would
' bring Berrien up to share top spot
1 with the Panthers. A win by Wa! tervliet would increase the gap to
j two games and then give the Panthers a little breathing space.
| Berrien has a tall team and
possess both speed and scorers.
• They also have more depth than any
j other team in the Little Eight. To
j match this the Panthers put up a
record of 10 straight wins. So far
Paul Kolenko,
Bob Wingler and
Frank Pflugradt have held their
own in rebounding against taller
teams. Although the team has
been 'cold' of late, they still are
capable of hitting as a unit.
Figures and. percentages show
that the game is pretty much of a
toss up. The Panthers have averages 70.3 points per game to Berrien
69.8.
Defensively, Tuesday night
the Panthers made it ten in a row
by rolling over Hartford, 85-50. Al-

Mrs. Miller is
walking on air. She received the
news of the birth of a grandson
today. Gregory Francis Recce
was born at the Presbyterian
Hospital in Chicago and weighs
eight pounds and nine ounces.
Mrs. Recce is the former Ardis
Miller.
Thursday: In checking back
over our accident records for the
past two weeks we find a definite
drop in our emergency out-patients. This means that the slippery roads have not been causing
any serious automobile accidents
in this area—everyone is slowing
down. The slippery sidewalks
and ice skating have brought in
a few patients with minor cuts,
bruises, etc.
Friday: Mrs. Victor (Mildred)
Mainwaring, charge nurse on the
afternoon shift, was admitted to
the hospital this afternoon for
medical treatment . . . . Mr.
James Avery's fellow worker"
have rented a T. V. for his use
while he is in the hospital. Mr
Avery had the T. V. set-up in
the solarium so that all of the
convalescent patients might enjoy it. We hadn't realized, until
now, just how much a T. V. could
mean to Shut-ins. It would be
nice if we could have a T. V. for
their use peramnently . , . . Mr.
and Mrs. Claude Swigart are the
parents of an eight pound four
ounce baby boy—Stephan Craig
born at 4:16 A. M. today. The
Swigarts have one other child.
Mrs. Swigart is the former Rosemarie Kolenko.
Monday: Chan Price was discharged this afternoon after having been hospitalized for the past
six days. His condition upon his
discharge was good . . . . We are
going to miss Mrs. Miller these
next two weeks as she will be
vacationing. She is planning to
spend these two weeks with the
William Reeces of Oak Park.
Tuesday: Eleven year old Robort Phillips was hospitalized this
afternoon and will undergo an
emergency appedectomy in a few
hours. Bob is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Roland Phillips of R. R. 2,
Watervliet.
Wednesday: Mrs. Carl Olmsted
was discharged this morning after a* weeks hospitlization for
medical treatment . . . . The patients are enjoying that T. V. set
to the
fullest — the nurses
wheeled one of the bedridden
young patients ' b e d and all) out
into the solarium this morning
—this was a great treat for him.
Wisdom is offtimes nearer wher
we stoop Than when we soar.

People Don't Fall
In Love—Bnt Learn
EAST LANSING. Mich.-Falling
in love just isn't done, regardless
of what the song writers say. No
one "falls" into love, instead, we
all learn to love as we learn to
walk and talk.
So says Dr. Elmer Knowles, of
Michigan State College's department of home management and
child development. He says: "We
grow into love and it grows in
us beginning with birth. So, most
of us have considerable experience in loving and being loved
by the time we feel grown-up
enough to get married."
He adds: "As children we
learned to love mom and dad and
our sisters and brothers. Then we
learned to love our playmates, uncles who bought us presents and
friends of the family. Most of us
became fond of one or more of
our school teachers. And then
came the first big crush of puppy
love."
Love, he explains, involves the
entire personality; infatuation focuses on a few traits, mostly
Litterbag Suggested
For Car Litterbugs
CHICAGO—Litterbugs are really
not bugs—they're people.
They are persons who throw
away items like orange peels, paper handkerchiefs, empty cigarette packages. They throw these
th.ngs everywhere but in baskets
or other receptacles designed to
keep public places tidy.
Some litterbugs are pedestrians,
but there is a large group of them
among motorists. Now, for the litterbug, there has been invented—a
litterUBg.
The suggestion has been sent to
the American Public Works Associatibn that lilterbags be made of
disposable paper with a container
to be fastened inside cars.
These would be passed out to
customers at gasoline service stations. Then, says the suggestion, to
assure that the bags themselves
would not wind up on streets and
and sidewalks, the stations could
serve as collection depots.

Loves Life of Comfort
The pine marten is almost the size
of a house c a t It worships warmth
and comfort, spending much of its
time in a moss-lined den in a tree,
coming out in the sunshine to
sprawl luxuriously along a nearby
limb. When it comes to food, mice
and squirrels are choice—and as
fast as a red squirrel moves the
marten is faster, running it down
sharp are the marten's claws and
teeth that few other animals will
tackle it. Consequently its only
real enemy is man. It has a great
weakness for sweets, and trappers
soon learned that the marten was
the easiest of all animals to capture with the right bait. This
single fact played an important
part in the extermination of this
interesting Michigan animal.
Other Game Recently
Introduced
While our game division in Michigan has recently introduced the
wild turkey, and some years ago
the ptarmigan (an arctic grouse),
there is far more hope for survival
of the marten. The wild turkey
has been subject to disease since
its release this year, and a number of dead birds have been found.
The ptarmigan, transplanted from
that portion of Canada close to the
arctic circle, apparently took one
look at Michigan and departed
across Lake Superior for the
familiar tundra of its favored
homestead.
The pine marten, however, seem

Another experiment in game management in Michigan sees the possible addition of the pine marten
to the list of animals of our state.
Once upon a time, in the long, long
ago when Michigan Indians used
fur pelts for money the marten
was a highly prized fur. As a matter of fact the fur of the marten is
said to be the most beautiful of all
carnivores—even finer than chinchilla—and more durable. The advance of civilization into the Michigan wilderness, together with
heavy trapping pressure, exterminated the marten from our local
scene many years ago. Now a
marten, trapped in Canada, is at
the Conservation Department's
game experiment station at Cusino
in the upper peninsula, and it may
be the first of many to be re-introduced to our forested areas.

Sumerian Schoolboy
World's First
Apple Polisher
WASHINGTON—The first "apple
polisher" In recorded history was a
Sumerian schoolboy who, some
2,000 years before the Christian era
began, buttered up his teacher with
a home-cooked meal.
Dr, Samuel Noah Kramer, curator of the clay writing table collection In the University of Pennsylvania Museum, unearthed the
story as he pored over cuneiform
symbols graven on tablets dug up
in Iraq,
Before him, he realized, lay a
schoolchlld's diary. In it the lad bewailed a day chiefly marked by the
number of canlngs his teacher had
given him. The discouraged lad
asked his father to Invite the headmaster home for a meal. The parent not only did so, but gave the
teacher a new garment and a ring
for good measure.
The plan worked perfectly. After
dinner, the master told the anxious
student, who probably still smarted from the canlngs: "You have
carried out well the school's activities, you have become a man
of learning,"
The first apple polisher belonged
to a people who may have been
the first to make enduring written records. Oddly, the very first
existence of the little kingdom of
Sumer between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in Mesopotamia was
not even suspected by modern
scholars until less than a century
ago.
Through Greek and Hebrew writings, archeologlsts knew of Assyria and Babylon and had located
them geographically. It was during
their digging for relics of these
later civilizations that they first
came upon clay tablets which,
when deciphered, proved to be
written in the Sumerian tongue.

CHICAGO—Children do not have
cancer as often as adults, but
early diagnosis is even more imI portant for them than for their
elders.
I This is true because the disease
spreads and progresses more rapidly in children, and the symp; toms are often confused, resembling many common childhood illnesses. Because of this, the disease may ,be unrecognized until
it is too late.
Cancer, when It does occur in
children, follows definite patterns.

Nine Out of Ten

NEW YORK—A leading cancer
laboratory, the Sloan-Kettering Institute—says that nine out of 10
heavy smokers do not get lung
cancer—although four of each five
lung cancers are believed to be
due to smoking.
There are indications, the institute adds, that the balance of sex
hormones and other hormones determines an individual's resistance
of susceptibility to cancer.
In a progress report the institute
said that It has succeeded In growing normal human lung tissue In
laboratory animals and will use
this tissue to determine "whether
or not the components of cigarette
smoke that cause cancer In mouse
skin will also do so In the human
lung."
The Institute uses a smoking machine to condense cigarette smoke,
which Is then divided into chemically definable fractions. The
chemicals are then tested to determine which contain the agent that
causes cancer in a mouse.
