' i It is a super form of ski Jump ing that approaches the limitations of man's ability to fly through the air unprotected and to land on skis at 60 miles an hour ..or more. It is a sport for "aces of aces". Only a few so far have mastered its dangerous techniques. . V'Ski flying" differs from ski jumping" in this respect: European experts agree that it is out of the question for the normal ski jump er, to spring much more than an average of 80 meters (262 feet). -vMost' of the world's ski jump ing platforms including the Olym pic ski jumping ' hills are ' built for leaps of 70 to 85 meters. At Oberstdorf, the Germans are building what they claim will be the highest ski jump hill in the world. It is said to be lareer than the outsize hills at Kulm, Austria, and Planica in Yugoslavia.

By leaping from the platform midway down the Oberstdorf hill Germany's skiers hope to soar 140 meter (459 feet) or more.

The Waynesville boys, with Bill Sutton in the lineup for the first time this season, made their debut by handing defending champion Mills River's boys a 56-31 pasting. The last of the opening round games, however, werq rough on other Haywood County teams. The Etowah boys knocked off the Crabtree quintet, 25-24; the Lake Lure girls bumped the Crabtree girls out of the tournament by a 34-28 count; and Bethel's boys fell by the wayside, 42-34, to a tough Saluda quintet. Canton's girls came from be. hind' a 7-3 first-quarter deficit to snatch a 13-10 lead by half time, then go ahead to stay In the third period when they racked up 11 points and held the losers to only one. . ..'. . Miss McCrary, Canton s most consistent scorer all season, con tributed 13 points to the winners' total and played a highly efficient floor game in general. Guards Aileen Haynie and Sue Cook were' the principal reasons why Etowah's usually high-scoring offensive stalled. Doyle Hollingsworth't two free throws in the final seconds of the game provided the tying and win ning margin for the Etowah boys oyer Crab.tree. For most of ' the time before that, the Crabtree boys held the lead in the close defensive battle. Beasley topped Crabtree's scor ing with his Beven points, while Al- iison, at. tne.winnera took hltfh-aoor ing honors foe the gam with 15 points. Bethel's girls, losers only to Fines Creek. anq Waynesville dur ing the regular season, led ajl the way as- virwnia, paced thera to their lop-sided' triumph, At half time it was 27-16, and the Bethel girls played as they pleased after that. Spencer's 21 points took in dividual honors In Clyde's victory over Fletcher. The. Cardinals held a 23-12 lead at the half and were never in serious trouble. Bill Sutton, back recently from Bradentown, Fla., High School, celebrated his return to Waynes vllle's squad by scoring 15 points in his tour of duty during the game as a reserve. Gene Liner's 11 points helped sew it up for Waynesville. The Mountaineers workjed up to a 31-14 lead by half time. In the Clyde girls' victory, the Misses Evans, Fore, and Fish dis tributed the points fairly evenly, with Miss Evans collecting 18, Miss Fore 14, and Miss Fish 12. The Clyde girls, playing their six starters the whole game with out substitution, gained a 29-12 lead by intermission. Substitute Mary Barnette, con necting for eight, was the losers' best scoring threat. The Bethel, boys battled Saluda on even terms throughout the first half, knotting, the count at 16-all by half time. But Saluda stiffened, the pace after that and clinched it in the third period.
