It was the big second period when the Christians rolled in high gear to outscore their opponents by 24-14 that told the difference when the final buzzer sounded. Four of the five players did all of the scoring for the Christians with Urban being high with 20. Vancampen, Harris and Lewis tallied 39 between them. | Starting at 10 Terms: Cash / by McFeatters Alfred Bronson, dapper in Mexi- can outfit with fierce mustachios and sideburns, stole the show at Sat- urday night's Donkey Basketball game in Lehman-Jackson High School gymnasium.

Edgar Lashford and Kenneth Sutton wore regular clothing. George Yurko spent the entire first period chasing his mount, which stood still until George reached for the bridle, then flipped its heels and clattered off down the floor. Donkeys lay down on the floor under the baskets, refusing to co- operate with frenzied players who had to be mounted in order to shoot a basket. Donkeys stood on their forelegs while their hind quarters rose in the air, catapulting their players down over their ears. Joe Ellsworth connected with the busi- ness end of a donkey and landed on his back, breathless but game. The capacity crowd of 900 whooped and yelled, cheering on FFA boys and townsmen, the score seesawing back and forth in time to the heehawing of the donkeys, until the final whistle gave a score of 16 to the FFA, 14 to the con- tenders. On the FFA team were Kenneth Coombs, Bruce Varner, Joe Schnei- derite, Jack Kern, George Yurko, Rafael Rodriguez, Ray Harned and Al Manzoni, Bob Norris, Ray Petroski and John Headman, assisted with the don- keys..

You Can Still Catch More Flies With Honey Than With Vinegar Don’t go off half- cocked, folks. Chances are when you contact the Dallas Post to make a complaint, the person who answers the phone does not - know what you are talking about. BUT she always knows who has the information and will connect you with the prop- er party. Wednesday at noon there was such a call. The man was plenty mad. He shouted that he had paid his bill, but he did not bother to give his name and address. With much bel- lowing and profanity he said stop bothering him with state- ments, he always paid his bills. At the suggestion that he wait a moment until he could be connected with the book- keeper, he blew up. He'd be damned if he would wait for the book-keeper. He was MAD, MAD, SEE? And BING goes the receiver. Maybe the outgoing state- ment crossed the incoming check in the mails. Or maybe the breakfast coffee had been a little weak, or his wife had served it in bobby-pins and a frayed bathrobe. It probably did him geod to blow off steam, but chances are he'll get another bill next month, because there's no way of knewing who it was.
