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.

Weather

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.

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.

show and deserved a well done as
did Jordan Wolf for her narra-
tion.
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-

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

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.

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.
