ARMY TO TAKE ·OVER NELSON HALL
Eleven Men Called MOVIE OF RAF BOMBING
To Active Duty By TO BE SHOWN THURSDAY
February
26
DURING ASSEMBLY HOUR
Eleven CSTC men have received
their orders to report for active duty
at Fort Sheridan by February 26. All
of these men are members of the Enlisted Reserve Corps. The order came
as . sodte what of a surprise to the
men, but all have made hurried arrangerhents to get home to see
their families and to close their affairs here at CSTC before the deadline date, February 26. These orders
will no doubt begin to come with
bewildering rapidity in the following months. As this issue 'goes to
press, there may already be others
who have received their calls.
Men included in the list ordered
to report February 26 were, Cliff
Bo(chardt, Ray Craig, Kent Cutnaw,
Frank I Dakins, Dan Durkee, John
Edwards, Everett Gardner, Don Kordus, Jlm Kulidas, Ernie Link and
Jay Swett.
Men in the Army Air Corps who
have been called to active duty and
must report Friday to their headquarters are Jim Sullivan, Francis
Nelson, Howard "Sam" Barton, and
Bill Nikolai.

any students or members of the

"It is right that the interests of

Some questions and answers of interest

'l.'he drilling sound8 so strenuous-!
Nonsense! The most beautiful women in America today
are the girls in khaki! Some calisthenics and drilling are
vital to general good health, discipline and tuned-up
reflexes. After a few weeks at Fort Des Moines, Daytona
Beach or the new Fort Oglethorpe training center you'll
feel better than ever in your life.

Emphatically yes! Already the President has authorized the Corps to expand from 25,000 to 150,000.
The Air Forces and Signal Corps have asked for thousands of WAAC members to help with vital duties.
Both Ground Forces and Services of Supply are asking for thousands more. Members of the WAAC may
be assigned to duty with the Army anywhere- some
are already in Africa and England.
.•
•
The whole idea of the WAAC is to replace trained
soldiers needed at the front. If American women pitch
in now to help our Army (as women in Britain, Russia
and China do) , we can hasten Victory - and peace.

College training is important equipment for many

Phi Sigs Defeat Chi Delts
18-13 In Hard Fought Game
Playing a preliminary game before
the varsity contest between Central
State and Oshkosh Teachers, the Chi
Delta Rho and Phi Sigma Epsilon
Fraternity quintets put on a very
thrilling and exciting game for the
crowd.
The game possessed . all of the
color and intense rivalry that accompanies any meeting between
these two fraternities be it on the
dian;wnd, the hardcourt, the gridiron
or in the race for new members.
Phi Sigma Epsilon emerged victorious 15-13 after thirty minutes of
hectic basketball.
The Phi Sigs employed a shifting
zone defense while the Chi Delts
used a man-to-man. The game was,
as might be expected, quite rough
and quite a lot of "body contact"
was witnessed! !
Baskets by Carnahan and Peterson
put the Phi Sigs ahead at the quarter 4-2. The Chi Delts score came on
a basket by Pejsa. During the second
quarter the Phi Sigs found the
range and increased their lead to 9-3
at the half. Tom Wishlinski put in a
basket and Bill Carnahan came
through with three free throws to
add to the total. The Chi Delts on
the other hand were held to one
free throw which was· made by Bob
Schunk.
The third quarter found the two
teams scoring only four points between them. The Phi Sigs added two
points on a basket by Ray Skatrude
while the Chi Delts counted on
Swett's ringer from the side.
Chi Delta Rho rallied strongly in
the final quarter but fell short by
two points of tying the score. Bob
Schunk made one basket and one
free throw, Grant Thayer sunk a
long shot and two penalty tosses
and Roy Arndt supplied a free
throw. The Phi Sig scoring was
climaxed by a basket by Bob Shorey
and a free throw apiece by Bill
Carnahan and Ray Skatrude.
The thriller, of the game came in
the last second of play when Jay
Swett brought the crowd to its feet
on a shot that almost tied up the
ball game. The ball hit the rim,
wobbled crazily, and fell out.
At this the Phi Sig fans were overjoyed for time was about up. Just
then Timekeeper Harry Hertz motioned to little Sol Shafton who blew
the horn which marked the end of
the game.

the first 15 minutes, at the end ' of
which Oshkosh held ·a 15-9 e~ge.
The halftime score was 21-13. At the
start of the second half the Pointers
put on an eight point spurt and ~ied
the score at 21-all. Two baskets ! by
Cliff Worden, one by Clarence Jiinkel and two free throws by Art
Crowns did the damage. This -ivas
all done within three minutes.
The Titans enjoyed a brief scoring
spree and moved ahead, 27-23, but
the Pointers came right back with
baskets by Worden and Erdman, and
a free throw by Francis Nelson to go
into the lead 28-27.
Tempas made a long shot and
Hartman a short one for Oshkosh to
put the Kolfmen intothe lead 31- 28.
Clarence Henkel made good his shot
from underneath the basket to cut
the lead down to 31-30 and then
Oshkosh sewed up the game when
Lamb put in a rebound shot and
Tempas came through with two long
shots. Howard Barton concluded the
scoring for Central State with two
free throws.

and Lamb of Oshkosh shared scoring

Sorry, fans but there are no upsets to give to you in the basketball
games played last week-end. In the
preliminary games the team which
was riding with the money paid off
again: Phi Sigma Epsilon rode the
crest of victory by handing Chi Delta Rho a 15 to 13 defeat. As the
score denotes it was a closely fought
game throughout. The much taller
Chi Delt team failed to capitalize on
their height which enabled the Phi
Sigs to jump into the lead and maintain it as the game progressed.
Shorey took the ball under the basket, ignored an easy push-up shot
and dropped in an under-the-basketover-the-shoulder shot. The P.S.E.
boys never relinquished the lead.
This game produced no stars on
either team. A bucket was scored by
5 of the 7 Phi Sig players and each
Chi Delt played well. Am I surprised - an off-the-record fistcuff
didn't occur.
The Pointers played their usual
scrappy game last Thursday night
but could not click on their shots. I
told Mr. Parks not to "put the cover
Dn" but he must have forgotten ...

This was the year for Oshkosh to go
away from the CSTC court the victor - the first time in many, many
years, I might add .... No, sports
fan, "Tick" Nelson always shoots
like that and he doesn't bathe in
lifebouy ... (Ed. Note: For those of
you who didn't get it any quicker
than I did, Mike means he is a
stinky shooter but a swell guy.) You
have your own vocabulary to use in
describing those unartful shots of
his ... Most of the comments that I
might make would be unprintable!! !
.... Wth the Aviation Cadets soon
to be in town, we will have some
new teams to challenge in basketball, baseball or what have you?
These boys should put forth some
keen competition... That is if they
have any time ... ' I heard that they
are not going to be college students
in uniform, but soldiers in college.
Apologies offered to Pils and
Carny for getting off the beam last
week and muscling in on their territory. Gosh, what's a fella gonna do?
After basketball, I can hardly support this column on pingpong
news!!! ....
Our intramural program is steadily expanding under Coach Berg... .
Basketball and pingpong are in the
spotlight at the present time ....
These two intramural sports, besides varsity basketball, take up all
our men-all twenty-five of them! ! !
'_'Duffy" Barton starts racking up
pomts for Uncle Sam "in the big
game", starting Friday. Jim Sullivan,
the other half of the star guard combination was also a choice in the
government's lottery for a winning
team. Their leaving places Point in a
position for a complete reversal of
the cage season of last year.

Of Two More Men
The Central State Teachers College basketball team will travel to
Whitewater this week where on
Saturday ·night they will meet the
league-leading Whitewater Teachers
College five. This will be the second
meeting between the two teams.
Whitewater won the first encounter
59-28 two weeks ago in a game
played in the Training School
Gymnasium.
As if he didn't have anything to
worry about in this coming game more woes came upon Coach Berg
yesterday when it was found that
two more first stringers, namely
Howard Barton and Jimmy Sullivan,
had received their notices to report
for Uncle Sam's team. "Sam" and
Jim will report for training with the
Air Corps. Three days before the
first game with Whitewater Coach
Berg lost the services of Captain Ed
Szymanski and Jack Rassmussen.
Barton moved up to the starting position after the departure of Szymanski and Rassmussen and immediately
began to work in with the boys. He
was a constant scorer in all of the
games and reached his peak in the
Oshkosh game last Thursday night
when he led the team in scoring
with twelve points. His shots from
far out were very deadly and opponents began to rush him when he
began to get set for a long shot.
Sullivan came out for the team at the
start of the semester and was just
rounding into shape and finding his
eye. These two boys will be sorely
missed.
Coach Berg has not indicated
what his starting lineup will be but
it is expected that the following will
be at the starting posts:
Hinkel and Menzel, Forwards;
Crowns, Center; Erdman and Nelson,
Guards.
It is also very likely that Menzel
will be shifted to the guard position
and that Cliff Worden will occupy
the forward post.
Whitewater will be led by the
high scoring duo of Lang and Zurich.
