Trevithick, public relations director of the Centennial, Cen-tennial, announced this week. Several Sev-eral caravans of talent will tour the state and one or more of them will visit every vicinity so the residents may enjoy performances not only never available to the smaller communities, but seldom available in the state at all. These shows are not expected to show a profit, in fact a loss is a foregone conclusion, but it will be r, part of the state's 100th Birthday The development of the programs is part of a three-way development of the general Centennial program which includes: 1 Local, county or area celebrations celebra-tions financed and sponsored by the local groups, with, wherever possible, some additional talent or , features provided by the central state committee. 2 A beautification program whereby all communities for their own good and by community cooperation co-operation make their comm.init.er as attractive as possible for the hundreds of thousands of vis.tors. 3 Providing of topnotch productions produc-tions with famous stars, the cos of which could not normally be borne by smaller communities.

Tonight's attractions match Telluride against Sam's Appliance in the 7:30 opener, with league-leading league-leading Whitbeck's taking on the runner-up Stewart-Dunn juveniles in the nightcap. Games were rained out last Friday. The Sportsmen - Milford News game was played Monday, the Sportsmen walking off with a 16-4 victory to fatten their average. In the other game, Penney's took the measure of the Railroaders, 15-3. On Wednesday night, Whitbeck marked up a 12-7 victory over Sam's Appliance, but the "furniture gals" had the leaders worried until the final out. In the men's half of the evening, the Railroaders hopped on the Newsboys for 16 tallies in the first inning to set up a 24-12 win. After the 'teen-agers got over their first-inning jitters they played on even terms with the first-half champs. Next week's schedule: Tuesday, July 23 7:00 Sam's Appliance vs. Tell-uride.
