Cary, a former Looking glass resident sine childhood, went into the respirator at Sacred Heart hospital in Eugene Dec. 14.

Basketball Skill Brings Honor To Sutherlin Woman ATTENTION MOTHERS Community kindergarten now offers care for your child by the day or hour. Phont 1599-R-4 or 1444-R Ptctur by t'iflrk'c Studio Mrs. Tom (Gladys Minney) Mi nor, above, now residing at Suth erlin, last Thursday night was hon ored as one of four outstanding Lane county B league athletes ot the last quarter of a century. The honor was conferred during the Lane county B league tournament at Eugene. The official tournament guide has this to say about Mrs. Minor: "Basketball indeed by reputztion is a man's world. Such has not always been the situation and trib ute we pay to probably the most renowned of any girls' team. Mrs Minor played with Vida (on the McKenzie) high school in competi tion during 1928.29 30 and 31. They were tournament winners for three consecutive years. 1928-29-30. She was an all-star selection the last three years. Her scoring record is truly that of a champion: 1929 tournament, 170 points in four games; 1931 average 57 points per game in regular rompetitnn: great est score in any one game, 104 points." Another portion states: The best remembered girls' team was the Vida squad of 1928 and '29. The never-to-be-forgotten Vida basket bailers walked off with league play and the county championship in a breeze both years. The Vida girls won the '23 crown with a 72-3" triumph over Thurston and that year Vida had only seven girls and three boys in high school. All seven girls played on the team, and it was Metloa Allen, six feet in height, who caged 64 points for the champions in the final playoff game. One of her teammates, Gladys Minney, became probably the most famous of them all in later years. Those who had seen her play tell many fabulous stories about her until she has almost be come a scoring legend in "B" bas ketball circles." Though out of sports, Mrs. Mi nor is not out of activities. She is a member of the Sutherlin Busi ness Women's club, Parent-Teacher's treasurer, and a member of the Roseburg Daughters of the Nile. The other three honored were Howard Fox, Thurston High, now a pitcher in major league base ball; Laddie Gale, ex-University of Oregon ail-American basketball player, and Mrs. Genevieve Bea mon, who coached Fox and his Thurston high team to champicc-ships.
