'The St. Joseph Tigers were
OMble to move the ball in the
opening game of the Sheridan
Itourney and were defeated 63-
|0 by Moulton.
rIThe Tigers will face St. Paul’s
In the second round of the tour-
ney today before opening their
district basketball schedule on
Monday, Jan. 3.
In their game with Moulton
the Tigers were led all the way
by Larry Johnston who drop-
ped in 25 points for the Cats.
Larry is the key to the Tiger’s
scoring and if he can get open
tbey should prove quite a com-
petitor in district play. The
Tigers also have Charles Brzo-
sowski and Peter Raska to re-
bound and if these two boys
come through the Tigers will
be a slight favorite to win the
Monday opener.
In the girls game in the
Shendan Tourney the Tigerettes
fell to the Moulton Girls 73-14.
Hie Tigerettes battled the Luiing
girls today at 10:30 but the re-
sult are not available at this
time.

Moon Rodts And Earth Stones
From Same Gravel Pit, He Says
Analysis of Moon Rocks
brought back to earth by Apollo
flyers indicates that they could
have developed from the same
mass of molten rock or lava,
a chemistry expert told the
convention of “rock hounds’’ at
the Space Center in Houston.
The finding was reported by
Dr. Larry Haskin, chemist from
the University of Wisconsin.
Haskin’s tests analyzed ele-
ments in six different Moon
fecks and decided they are siml-
Mr. to Basalt, the dark rock
found on earth and usually trac-
ed to the flow of molten lava
from within the earth’s crust.
His findnigs also added import-
ance to the theory that the
Moon was once part of the
earth, or at least a part of the
same cloud of dust and element-
al gaseous substances.
Closest resemblance to Moon
rocks is the basaltic rock from
ridges on the ocean floors here
on earth, Dr. Haskins said.
“The resemblance between
these materials is so close that
we feel sure the chmical pro-
cesses of their origin were the
same,” he added.
Finding that Moon rocks and
deep ocean rocks of earthly
origin are very similar added
some credibility to an old
theory that the Moon is a part
of earth once blown out into
space by a volcanic explosion,
Prize Awards To Hilite Jan. 11
Super Bowl Game At N. Orleans
Competition tor the 12th annual
“Sport Magazine Super Bowl A-
ward,” presented each year to
the “Most Valuable Player’’ in
the pro football championship
game, seems to be more wide o-
pen than usual, according to the
experts.
The award, a 1970 Dodge Chal-
lenger R/T, wiU be presented to
the player selected by the edi-
tors of Sport Magazine as the
outstanding performer in the Su
per Bowl game at New Orleans
this Sunday. He will receive the
award at a luncheon in his honor
at Mamma Leone’s in New York
City.
Traditionally, quarterbacks have
been favored for the prize, having
been honored six times in the ele-
ven years that Sport has made
the presentation. However, Joe
Kapp of the Minnesota Vikings
and Lon Dawson of the Kansas
City Chiefs should have plenty of
competition from some of their
All-Pro teammates for individual
honors.
Among the other leading Viking
candidates for the “Sport Super
Bowl Award” are Bill Brown and
Dave Osborn, wide receiver Gene
Washington and numerous stars
on pro football's top defensive
unit led by Alan Page, Jim Mar
shall, Carl Eller and Gary Lar-
sen.
Other strong possibilities on the
Chiefs squad include breakaway
threats Mike Garrett, Robert Hol-
mes and Warren McVea in the of
tensive backfield, receivers Otis
Taylor and Frank Pitts, and a
host of fine defensive players
paced by end Aaron Brown, line-
backer Bobby Bell and safety
Emmitt Thomas, who led the AFL
in interceptions,
Prior to the Super Bond, Sport
Magazine’s pro football award
had been presented to the out-
standing player in the NEL’s
championship game between East-
ern and Western Division title-
holders. It is the companion a-
ward to Sport’s “World Series A
ward,” instituted by the maga-
zine in 1956 and presented annu
ally to the outstanding player in
the Fall Classic. JusMast season.
Sport Magazine presented its first
annual "NBA Playoff Award!’ to
Jerry West of the Los Angela
Lakers, named the outstanding
player in the probasketball champ-
ionship series.
A total of 2,866 persons have
been approved to receive food
during the January period of
the Victoria County Commodity
Distribution Program, according
to Director John Huff. The free
food is to be handed out from
January 2 thru January 15th
he indicated.
Figures given for the first
three days of food distribution
revealed a total of 985 persons
checking out food from 8 a m.
to 3 p.m. in Victoria at Juan
Linn and Cameron.
Director Huff explained that
only 2,000 applicants for free
food were approved last month,
for the December distribution.
No additional applications are
being taken now he said, not-
ing that new applicants for the
February food program can
make applications during the
latter part of January for the
February distribution.
Victoria County received 121,-
296 pounds of food for January

compared to 86,196 pounds last
December, Huff reported.
He said two food items, Navy
beans and corn grits, were
added this month to the 20
items received In December.

include lard, dried milk, rice,
flour, corn meal raisins, peanut
butter, chopped meat, butter,
cheese, dried potatoes, rolled
oats, evaporated milk, powder-

A combination of Income and
the number of persons in a
family is the determining factor
in eligibility for assistance un-
der the surplus food program.
In the project, the county pays
the salaries of Huff and Mrs.
Gloria Mendieta, office secre-
tary, and the city provides the
building and transportation of
food from the Corpus Chris ti

tional supervisors. In addition,
