S. competed fer 376 prizes in the event, which was precedent-breaking in several par- ticulars. The judges panel was se- lected from outside the Company. Set up to parallel Gulf’s “Hat in the Ring” contest (still being judged) for the general public, the contest was one of the few in history arranged to include employees and annuitents. The annuitants rang up a score of 97 wins! The competition also represented | a unique approach to business’ par- | ticipation in politics. “The sole pur- pose of the contest,” the Company | explained, “is to create greater in- | terest. . . . in political personalities, [iter position on issues, and their | beliefs . . .’ ‘What did the local area winner have to say in the prize-winning answer ? As far ‘as Gulf is concerned, neith- |ever know. In another unusual | angle adopted to prove the sincer- eity of its aims, the Company promised participants: “Contents of entries will not be | made known to any person or or- | ganization (including Gulf), ard | opinions expressed therein will not {be used . . . for any purpose, poli- | tical or otherwise.” BE I Family Group Holds ‘Picnic At Harveys Lake Lutheran Family Group held a pic- | nic at Sandy Bottom, Harveys Lake, {on Tuesday evening.

Francis Bren- nan. This is the third season for the GEORGE SHUPP league with six of the ten original sponsors back for another year. The original six spon- sors include three teams from St. Therese’s ( Crusaders, Raiders and Wreckers); Casterline Hauling; Dal- las Lions and Noxen VFW. St. Therese’s Crusaders copped the bunting in the initial season when they won the second half honors and went on to beat Casterline Hauling in the play-off. Crusaders lost the first two games and were down 40 pins but came back with a 900 plus to win by 60 pins. Rev. Francis Brennan with 225, Jim Loh- man 208 and Joe Harris 196 led the Crusaders to the big upset. Mem- bers of the 1958-59 Crusaders team were Joe Harris, capt.; Ed Carey; Nick Tomasak; Joe Bogdon; Father Brennan and Jim Lohma:. Nick Tomasak is the only man not with the team this season. Meade’s Garage copped honors for | Shupp and Jim Traver for the | smooth operation of the league as | they were the two men who got the the 1959-60 season when it downed Berti Hauling in a play-off as the Garagemen rolled over 2800 pins {hood League Bowlers Of George Shupp League i ORGE SHUPP LEAGU with Walt Meade showing the way with a beautiful 600 series. Members of the winning team were Jack Roberts, capt.; Leo Yankoski: Joe Kravitz; Walt Meade; Paul Thomas and Tom Cross. Meade’s Garage is the original Casterline Hauling team that lost out the year before. This season the league should be even more balanced as the bowlers continue to show improvement in averages. Last season thers were 22 “600 series” and almost 400 games of 200 or better rolled. Much credit is due to George ball rolling three years ago and devoted much time to get the league set up. Actually this league is the other half of the Back Mountain Neighborhood League because’ Mr. Shupp is the man who started that league. The Neighborhood League is comprised of 16 teams while the | GEORGE SHUPP LEAGUE has 10 because only ten alleys are available on Monday nights. The Neighbor- rolls on Thursday | nights. | Photo by Paramount Studio | & NEW SCHOOL | As you already have read in the | Post, a site has been picked for our | new school. It is to be located on the old Lewis Farm adjacent to Lehman Cemetery. It is the hope of the board to have this building | completed by September 1962. § Here is a tentative idea of what the building will contain. There will be sixteen class rooms along with these extras, Physics, Chemistry and Biology Laboratories, science room, business suite, including a typing room, a room for the faculty, conference room, larger library, ac- tivity room, student council room, a new gym and auditorium, two home economics rooms, two music rooms, health suite, administrative suite, cafeteria and dining room, industrial and agriculture shops. This will give you some idea of how large a building will be required. LARGEST CLASS : The first grade has the honor of being the largest class in the school. Students enrolled number 156. First day enrollment showed 828 pupils in the grades, and 772 in the high school or a total of 1,600. BANKING This past Monday our old system of banking ‘went back into order. Each student who banks receives a book and plastic case in which to place the money . . These books are then sent to Dallas Branch Miners National Bank for deposit. It is always a good idea to save money so if you do not have a bank account for your children you can start them saving now. FOOTBALL Tomorrow night, is our first foot- ball game. It will be a night game with Forty Fort starting at 7:45. The cheerleaders should all be ready since they have been practic- ing very hard. The girls received their uniforms last Friday all pressed and ready for use. “Good luck” to the cheerleaders and band, but, if it wasn’t for the team we wouldn't need either of these groups, so let's all support {our team. gy | Going back to school always makes the students think of tests, but here is one test I think everyone can take. (1) Is it the TRUTH? (2) Is it FAIR to all concerned? | Class Picnics Young Adult Class of the Noxen Methodist Church held a picnic lunch in the Crossmans’ yard on Friday evening. Present were: Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Bates, David, Bar- bara, Mrs. Eleanor Patton and fam- ily, Mr. and Mrs. Warren Montross, Sharon and Gregery, Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Cook and family, Mr. and Mrs. William Evans, Linda, Dennis, Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Denmon, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Denmon and family. Ideas Common speakers have only one set of ideas, and one set of words to clothe them in; and these are always ready at the mouth; so people come faster out of a church that is almost empty, than when a crowd is at the door.-—Swift.
