00erry Pirates Demons 14-2
Perkins Town
Meeting 100
Demons were de-
last Monday after-
on the home diamond
Perry Maroons. After
a lead of 1-0 in the
first inning off
a Mark Bunch home run,
Demons were unable to
again until the 5th
With Perry scoring 3
runs in the 2nd inning, 4 in
the 3rd and 7 in the 4th, the
Demons' 2 runs in the 5th
inning weren't enough to
pull them past Perry's 14-3
win.
Pecos Bridenstine led off
the Demon hitting with 2 of
their 5 hits. Todd Smalley,
Kelvin Smith and Mark
Bunch each had 1 hit, with
Mark Bunch hitting a home
run over the right field fence.
Perry had two home runs,
with Beisel and Klein taking
the honors.
Dewane Deaver was the
losing pitcher for the
Demons, giving up 9 hits and
14 runs to Perry. Cecil Beisel
was the winning pitcher for
Perry giving up 5 hits and
only 3 runs.
"I feel that when we got
our errors cut down we will
have a pretty good team"
stated coach Bunch. "We
had 12 errors and Perry had
none and so far errors are the
only thing that has been
keeping us from having a
winning season."

Communication means "to
make common by imparting, •
sharing,.and passing along."
The town meeting project
which calls for 100 commu-
nities to participate in local
town meetings on March 26,
1977, will, perhaps, create a
new togetherness for small
communities. President of
the Board of Trustees said,
"During the 1976 Bicenten-
nial celebration 26 Oklahoma
communities organized town
meetings. Citizen participa-
tion was a new experience
for many who attended and a
new community spirit was
the result," committee presi-
dent added. "This year with
nearly 250 gatherings, the
opportunity will again be
made available to Oklaho-
mans everywhere."
If communication break-
downs can create awkward-
ness and thoughtlessness
between members of a
family or friends, even a
nation, how often, then, this
can happen in small com-
munities or towns. Clement
Atlee said, "The people of
the worlds are islands,
shouting at one another over
seas of misunderstanding."
Direct citizen involvement
through town meetings can
become a social instrument
"in creating the new fiber of
our social fabric."
Communication is dialo-
gue. The words, community
and communication, have
much in common. The town
meeting calls for business-
community dialogue. Thus it
can be a method to bring the
consumer and businessman
together, build mutual re-
spect, and develop health
and pride in both sectors, the
town meeting committees
feel.
The small town has much
to offer the community. In
the words of Thomas Wolfe,
"Men are strangers. They
are lonely, forsaken, exiled
on this earth. They are born,
live, and die alone," many
times in the larger cities.
Thus, the exodus to town
and country for a new quality
of life, a new burst of
self-confidence, a new sense
of responsibility, and a new,
realistic hope in the future.
The small town dare not
ignore this challenge to
growth.

ing schedule is structured
