of the Council team, as they
fell behind by twelve points
only to storm back to within
three with a minute forty-
five seconds remaining in
the contest. 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.

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

Because of the joint effort of Boise Cascades' sawmill
division, headed by Bob Waters of Council and the
Council Hospital Auxiliary the Hospital now has a new
infant incubator, an item that has been much needed in
the past. In the picture, above, Council Hospital
manager, Jerry Hart is presented with checks with which
to pay for the incubator. Mr. Hart, left, expressed ap-
preciation for the aid to Mr. Bob Waters of Boise Cascade
who presented a check for $2,500.00 and to Hospital
Auxiliary President Florence Hart. The Auxiliary held
cooked food sales and other fund raising activities to

120,000 board feet in one days' work.

print a photograph of one

Now one could ask "just
what is so different about

would be that the photo-
graph is taken when
that person shown was an
infant or very young.

it to the Record, 211
