4 WHITE FALCON Saturday, March 31, 1962 Dribble Derby Picks Up Speed Keflavik basketball got off to a fast, if not close, pace last week with high scores and wide margins. The Marines and 57th FIS mixed it up during the first game of the evening Monday, of 48-32 in favor of the Leather-** necks. Longyear led his quintet with 21 and Campbell' netted 10. The opposition, defeated by 16 points, had one double-digit man, Snell, who contributed 14. In the second encounter Mon- day, Navy Supply dumped VP-5, 73-44. High scorers for the win- ners were Minton with 29 follow- ed closely by Laut who hit for 24. Wease, for the Patrollers, was big-gun for his team with 28. Final action for the evening saw AFI win a close one over IKF, 44-41. Honeycutt and Shiver were high for the winners with 18 and 10. The Icelanders were led by Fiddi with 12. The Marines came through with their second win of the week, de- feating Public "Works, 62-40. Double-digit men for the winners were Longyear with 20, Campbell hitting for 15 and Milstad netting 13. The Workmen were led by Wolf who contributed 12. ComBarLant managed a 10 point win over IKF during the final action at the final gun, 49-39. Gay, with 21, led his winning five with 21. Bjarni hit for 19. The Naval Station basketball Weather (Continued, from Page 1.) The long term averages, how- ever, can sometimes be misleading. For instance, March broke several records. In the 14 years of ob- servations available for summary, March 1962 had less precipitation and less wind than any other March. As of March 27, there had been no measurable snowfall, an- other record since March usually averages eight inches of snow. Testing (Continued from Page 2.) or more thoughtfully weighed,” he said. It is fresh in memory that last Sept. 1, while we and the United Kingdom negotiated with the Soviet representatives at Gen- eva, Russia violated her phony “moratorium” by beginning a series of some 40 powerful nu- clear detonations—“the most ex- tensive single atomic test series in history” as Defense Secretary McNamara described them. We would be failing our allies and putting our own nation in terrible, even fatal jeoprady to adopt any other course than that which the President has reluct- antly chosen. Only a valid demon- stration of food faith by Premier Khrushchev and his government can change that course.

Mrs. Bjorn Ingvarsson was the guest of Nan Meyer and the Em- bassy ladies attending were: Lin Larson; Eleanor Scherer; Josep- hine Soulen; Lenore Bittner and Dorothy Hicks. After the business meeting, president Sadie Oglesby, welcom- ed new members Yvonne Robbin and Geri Rutan. Both ladies are 57th wives and coincidentally each arrived from Kingsley Field, Oreg. Bless fish were presented Cynthia Fors, who will be mis- sed by her many friends, and Juli Zinnsmeister, who made such an invaluable contribution to all of us by so ably organizing and maintaining the base nursery. Joyce Geiger will serve as the new Nursery Chairman. With the “luck of the Irish” Pat Steely left as the owner of an exquisite mink hat, the door prize so graciously donated by Mi-. Gudjonsson. NATO (Continued from Page S.) vided the major share of the manpower. As to how long we must con- tinue to make our contributions, only the Russians know. Merely to have strong forces deployed along the tense frontiers of Eu- rope is not enough to insure peace. We must have the will to use these forces promptly and effect- ively, and the Russians must know that we have the will to do so. The best evidence of our will is the physical presence of American troops in Europe. So long as they stand side by side with the troops of our allies, the Russians will make no mis- calculation. They will know we mean business and will act if action is required. Winter Bowling Ends; Chiefs Take Title The Winter Intramural Bowling League ended last week in dramatic fashion. Going into the final night, the Supply team led the Chief’s Club by three rames and only needed one point out of the possible four to clinch the title. The Chief’s man- aged to keep that one victory out of their grasp by taking all four points and won the title by a slim margin. Canepari (210/550), Tigelman (225/546) and Long (189/511) were high for the vic- tors and Hawkins (186/535) and Franklin (176/510) were high for the losers. This climaxed the long 25 week struggle for the title that saw the TTY Repair team topping the standings for most of the first 21 weeks only to fade in the final month. Third place fell into the hands of 57th FIS #1. Although tied with ComBarLant, total pinfall was the deciding factor. IDF, winning the weekly prize money, won easily from the TTY Repair five. IDF finished in the 5th position in the league. Individual trophies were award- ed as follows: , Hi Average - Powell - 182 Hi Series - Katynsky - 655 Hi Series (W/HDCP) - Clemons 689 Most Improved Bowler - Tigel- man - 13.1 Hi Game - Coleman - 270 Hi Game (W/HDCP) - Petroski 269.

A Marine sergeant caught a boot with one button unfastened. “Oh,” he sneered. “Sunbathing, eh?” THE HAFNARFJORDUR “BEATNIK QUARTETTE” and featured soloists Gudrun Frederiksen and Thorsteinn Eggertsson rehearse for a recent Channel 8 show. The pianist, Edward Frederiksen, played one of his own com- positions — “Ebbie’s Blues.” Bjorn Jonsson, on guitar, and Eirikur Sigtryggsson on bass, plus the dandy drum- ming of Eggert Kristinsson rounded out the show. Channel 8 News The “Sirri Steffen Show,” the non-beat “Beatnik Quart- ette,” and the “Blue Notes” drift down memory lane. This week’s instant spectacular will be the revised “Eagle West- The band has trimmed itself down to four members and has practiced its tunes a bit. A charm- ing vocalist, “Louisa,” has been added to help round out a half- hour show that has changes of pace, and more snap than ever. Western music fans should enjoy the bit, Thursday, April 5, at 6:30. Viewers should be pleased with the replacement shows that move into our schedule this week. FIVE new shows join us and they hold the promise of good entertainment. “Bonanza,” a top western, be- gins in the four p.m., Sunday spot. Bonanza will hold this posi- tion for two weeks. When “Wagon Train” rolls on, Bonanza will shift to the Tuesday-at-eight time zone. The “DuPont Cavalcade” moves into Sunday schedule too. Pegged in the five o’clock spot, this series sets the stage for afternoon and early evening viewing pleasures. “China Smith,” with Dan Duryea as a devil-may-care in- vestigator, debuts at 7:30, Sunday. China Smith’s job will be to break up a block of heavy shows by ad- ding his adventure element. To accomplish this, “Global Zobal” picked up camel saddles and tur- kish waterpipe, and moved to the four p.m. spot on Saturday. Although “Checkmate” com- pleted its run, we are not en- tirely lost. A new series, “Wire Service,” takes over the vacant time. The new show features ex- citing news dramas and big stories. The first epsode takes place in Colorado, and has to do with a rumored uranium strike, a dead prosepctor, and his mis- sing companion. TV staffers are putting “Sher- iff of Cochise” in at 5:30, on Fri- days. The idea is to placate view- ers with an up-to-date cowboy show, in exchange for “My Little Margie.” Margie ran out, and we shall miss her. In the next three weeks Channel 8 bids farewell to seven shows. This week you shall see the final segments of Playhouse 90, Glenn Miller Time, and Pro-Football Hilites. Replacements are being made ready, but are being kept secret for the time being.
