As many at 300 high-spirited young partisans . take to their school buses on Friday evening and head tor the Big Game be It North O' tooth Salem, Serra or , Salem Academy', whenever thai game is a a distant field. What happens in the course of one of these noisy cavalcades? It eti be most anything lively, ae eorpinf to "Inside reports" from The Statesman's own Khool re porters who ought to know. "Tome on, kids, let's really rock this town," if a frequent re mitder from yell leader on any of Ihe buses. -. There is nothing destructive In mind just in ear-splitting school yell to remind Aumsville, for ex ample, that the South Salem Sax ens would have plenty of support when this lusty crowd got to Bend. Bally Squad Splits Vp 1 Rally squad members ere split up among the various buses to direct this motorized cheering operation. As many as five or even buses from one school have made such a trip already this Rally leader Beth Horn, recall ing a. North Salem Viking bus trip to Lebanon, said, "We screamed our heads off and bad the windows open ill the way except when passing that paper mill at Albany!" , ' But take it from iciioot report er John Hamstreet of Serra High, himself member of the foot ball team, it's different in the bus that carries the squad Into action. There's no fooling around during the trip to the game. Ev erybody is pretty much con cerned with the coming game and has bis mind on blocking as signments, pass patterns and many other things including spec ials instructions from bis coach. There's bo 'food. Everybody is fighting case of butterflies and hoping the trip will soon be over and the game underway." Different en Way Heme . On the way home, it's likely to be different. Noisy with congrat ulations and reliving . plays if, they win; pretty quiet if they dont cv.,..,,. . Back on the cheering section buses, it turns out the windows' aren't only an outlet . for the cheers. "Our driver threatened to stop and let all the other buses pass," recalls Cheerleader Dottye Jones of North High; "if the kids didn't stop hanging their beads out." They did. Some mixups are inevitable. An extra passenger was counted on Viking bus leaving Lebanon for Jiome, in the form of a kit ten." The Lebanon stowaway was put aground before takeoff. On the other "hand, I South High girls' group spotted a lonely (they said) kitten in Salem and took him ill the wiy to i Sweet Home game and back. That kit ten never had had so much at tention, but not a teacher sus pected!

Irene Fustier made tha most of a very small part as the French maid. :T1 v This was Tentacle's smoothest performance to date, the vehicle lending itself to traditional stag ing possible at the Fine Arts Au ditorium. Boh Putnam, who di rected it, selected bis actors to suit the worldly, glib-tongued characters called for la the play. The only regret is that H was a one-night affair, for it would have drawn an even larger crowd on subsequent performances. The play was a benefit for the Salem Memorial Hospital.. ' , .

U UB-A sub committee of the American Coun cil on Education today recom mended that the federal govern ment set up a program of college scholarships estimated to cost 200 million dollars year. - The proposed scholarship pay ments would go directly to stu dents. , The recommendation, submitted at the council's annual meeting, still must be considered by anoth- er committee next montns ana then by the full council.

County Polio Chapter Gets $2,650 Check A check for 2,650 was received by Marion County Chapter. Nation al Foundation for Infantile Par alysis, chapter chairman L. A. Rowan said Friday. This makes a total of over $13,000 that has been advanced from national headquarters since the beginning of the year, he said. During the annual March of Dimes drive held in January 1956, the county netted $11,581. Reason for the county chapter t having such financial difficulty, : Rowan said, is that it has been ; giving assistance to 55 patients who still require costly care to give them a chance for full re covery. i He urged individuals who still : haven't received the Salk vaccine to do so. The age restrictions for the vaccine have been removed, he said, and inoculations should be started immediately to be protect ed against paralytic polio next year.
