NORFOLK,

heads back into action
Saturday night at Norfolk
Scope to battle Winston
Salem State (NC) in the
Spartans first Central In
tercollegiate Athletic
Association (CIAA) bout
of the 1979-80 basketball
season. The Spartans
carry a 3-0 record into the
7:30 p.m. Saturday con
test while the Rams enter
with a 2-1 slate.
"Winston will certainly
be a big test for us," said
Norfolk's second year
mentor who now has 290
career coaching wins
against just 83 setbacks.
"Obviously wjtlvBighduse ,
Gaines being the coach,
Winston-Salem is always
going to be a tough team
to beat. We also know the
Rams will be extra up for
this game after we beat
them twice last year. They
have four starters and
about everybody else back
from that team and they
were pretty tough last
season. We'll definitely
have to be in top form to
.-
beat them."
Last season, the Spar

their home hardwood dur

PERSONAL TOUCH ADDS TO HOLIDAY CHEER
When a bottle of holiday
cheer isn't quite personal
enough as a gift, this season
there are unique combina
tions that can give your
package a memorable touch.
For example, almost
everyone enjoys cheese. Two
or three unusual cheeses
can provide an impressive
accompaniment to your
bottle gift. And there are
some wonderfully elegant
sausages on the market
the Hungarian sal am is, the
finer Polish sausages and the
spicy Spanish links. Any of
these, along with a box of
imported crackers, would be
appropriate with a bottle
of cheer.
Of course, there also are
highball glasses, cocktail nap
kins, serving trays and other
accoutrements of the cock
tail hour, but all of these

ticipate in the NAIA
Playoffs this year and
although the Spartans
have been ranked high in
all the pre-season polls,
Winston has been con
spicuously ignored.
The Rams are coming
off a 19-9 campaign and
have to be rated as one of
the top contenders for the
NAIA District 26 title
while the Spartans are the
early favorite for District
19 laurels. Both teams
carry some impressive
credentials into Saturday's
game, the Spartans with
their 3-0 ledger and
Winston at 2-1.

For an easier way to ex
pand your gift of good
spirits, there are already
packaged combinations.
Many such holiday pairings,
available in states where
authorized, are as imagina
tive as they are practical.
One shining example is a
ship's decanter of gleaming,
heavy glass in the classic
wide-based design, with a
screened reproduction of
the famous Cutty Sark
clipper ship on it. The de
canter is handsomely pack
aged with a bottle of the
popular Scotch named for
the ship.
For vodka fans on your
holiday list, the Finlandia
gift combination for 1979
is an award-winning work of
art. This popular Finnish
vodka comes in a striking
glass bottle design by
Finland's master craftsman.
Tapio Wirkkala. And for
holiday giving he has de
signed matching cocktail
glasses, two of which are
packaged with a bottle of
Finlandia in a silver box
embellished with white
reindeer. Both the Finlandia
bottle and the glasses have
an ice crystal surface sug
gesting the Arctic. And
what could be more fitting
for the holidays than a gift
reflecting the North Pole
plus reindeer!
For nautical fans another i
unusual gift is the "shipl
set," an actual model of the
famous Cutty Sark with
wooden hull and canvas
sails, attractively packaged
with a bottle of its name
sake. And a perfect host or
hostess gift idea, also com
bined with that particular
bottle, Is a set of six nautical
wood-and-rope coasters
There's no denying that
bottles of cheer are much
appreciated gifts, especially
during the holiday party
season. And for those who
don't have the time to shop
for and wrap accompanying
presents, the solution can
be to look for the gift-and-bottle
combinations in the
stores or departments where
holiday spirits abouiid.
