OKTOBERFEST OPENS
TO HUGE CROWDS
Most of the crowd
went over to the Fun Pier during the day and rode the rides and had fun on
boardwalk. The Pier will remain open for
the entire Oktoberfest and the tents will be open every day for the week. The evenings will be filled with performances
from local groups putting on theatrical shorts and there is even a movie
planned to be shown on a huge screen much like a drive-in without the
cars. Everyone is looking forward to all
the planned events throughout the week.
SPORTS
COUGARS PASS BY
SOUTHPORT
South Port – The Cougars took to the air on Saturday and passed
their way to victory over the Southport Hawks, 21-7. The aerial display was
orchestrated by quarterback, Jimmy O’Conner and his receivers, Mitch “Merc”
McMaster, “Long” John Silber and Wayne “TV” Emerson. O’Conner was able to mix
and match his passes both short and long among the three receivers to complete a
total of 20 passes, 170 yards, 2 touchdowns and no interceptions. The Hawks had
trouble containing the multi-pronged attack but did mount their own offensive
attack on the ground. Hawks running back, Phil Hayman, was able to rush for a
total of 80 yards and one score.
The Cougars
started off trying to establish the ground game but the Hawks defense was rock
solid. After trading several sets of downs the game looked like it was going to
turn into a slug fest between the twenties but then Coach Burcowitz changed his
game plan and let O’Conner start to air it out. The next series moved the
Cougars down to the fifteen and with a quick snap and a toss across the center
to Silber the Cougars had their first score. O’Conner kept up his aerial
bombardment and the Cougars were able to score at the end of the first half
with a thirty yard bomb to McMaster who raced twenty more yards for the score.
In the second half the Hawks were able to score on a time consuming drive with
Hayman scoring from the seven. While the Hawks put up a formidable defense they
couldn’t stop the Cougars three receivers. When they moved to contain one
O’Conner would move to another and move the ball forward. The final score came
when Silber caught a short pass over the center, eluded his defender and found
himself all alone on the right sideline and only fifteen yards to the goal
line. He headed toward the goal line and at the one he was almost knocked out
by Hawk defender, Frank Gains but Silber dove headfirst into the end zone for
the score. Kicker Charlie Cox was perfect again for all the extra points.
Next week’s
game is against the Coring Devils in Corning. The game begins at 1:30 on the
Corning High field.

Big Four meeting In Geneva - Soviet
Foreign Minister Molotov unequivocally rejects western proposals for German
reunification and for security of Europe in such harsh terms as to render
barren all further efforts at an authentic compromise during the remaining life

Germany, the three Foreign Ministers turn their debate with Molotov to another
quest for disarmament.
Gen. David Sarnoff; chairman of the board of Radio Corp of American (RCA) demonstrates a 50-cent phonograph that
could be the answer to radio jamming behind the Iron Curtain. He said it is the
answer to the need he felt for a device which could bring a message without
being subject either to radio jamming or a source of electricity and which was
prices so “millions could be delivered gratis.” The little machine, said Sarnoff,
is unbreakable and could be dropped by air behind the Iron or Bamboo Curtain.
“It is so simply designed that it could be assembled and separated by the
simplest people.”
