High school hoop team posts profit amid war era woes
The Pratiklin school board reports the high school basketball team earned 886.70 last season, a rare positive in a red balance sheet for the district. The team delivered spotty play yet drew limited crowds, except for a finale with Lawrence Park. Sgt Buddy Baer remains hospitalized in Miami after injuries from his combat days, with talk of a medical discharge. The Corry Country Club plans a banner year as wartime limits and equipment shortages linger, while golf figures like Ben Hogan are seen as unlikely to reclaim peak form. Rambling notes cover Connie Mack’s progress with the American League, Tommy Bell’s looming bout in Cleveland, and bowling championships in West Allis and St. Louis.
