SPORTS AT CLINTON Where there are sports, you will find some Ecustans or vice versa. Our Ecusta Athletes haven’t wasted any time in finding different forms of en tertainment during their stay in Clinton. We have had some varied reports of these activities and by request, we have received a few photos of the fellows in action. We hope to receive more in the future. The above photo on the left shows Lewis Meece in action on the bowling alley. The photo at right shows some of the fellows around the much talked about miniature table type shuffleboard. The interest is so high in regards to the shuffleboard that we wouldn’t be surprised if the fellows bring the shuffleboard table home with them when they return from Clinton. The men gathered around the table are left to right: Ray Winchester, Rupert Gordon, Walter Hooper, D. S. Winchester, Robert Foster, Rusty Carland, Tom Hooper and Jessie Ashe.
