Just as it appeared that the 'Jacks' might get the upper hand, a couple of turn-overs allowed the Savages to escape with the victory. Ron Wininger was the leading scorer for the Lum- berjacks with 15. Rich Laine added 14 while Tim DeHaas accounted for 13. In the rebound department, Scott Miller lead the output along with Allen Edwards as both players snagged 10 each. Rich Laine also had 8 boards for the evening. "Mental attitude, poor shooting both at the foul line (15 for 27) as well as poor performance in the field adds up to defeat. We should have handled them with very little difficulty, I hope the team learned a lesson from this showing," commented Coach Les Nash. The Council Five were minus Dan Murphy who had the flu and also Kelly Hemenway who is still nur- sing a bad knee. Both of these players are possible starting material and are much needed in the Lumber- jack attack. Council's next action will be in the Christmas Tourney at New Meadows on December 16 & 17. The teams involved in the tourna- ment are New Meadows, Midvale, Salmon River and Council. The pairings for the opening night's action were not available at press time. It would appear that the Rangers from Midvale would be the odds-on favorite as they sport a big rangy squad with a lot of experience. This tournament will be the final action before the Christmas Vacation and the end of pre-season play. Long Pin League action will begin with the first contest after the return to school, t Extension Service Scholarships Each year Union Pacific in cooperation with the Univer- sity of Idaho Cooperative Extension Service offers 4-H scholarships to deserving High School Seniors.

The Auxiliary held cooked food sales and other fund raising activities to help pay for the incubator.
