tion.

After wrestling with them too long,
we finally got a firm grip on our
waning sanity and decided that
what one of their announcements
means is that parents, male and/or
female, now gather there at 8 p.
m. on Mondays to discuss diet and
physical training in their relation
to emotional development and be­
havior problems in children. Paul
Campbell, director North Branch,
Portland YMCA, will lead first in
the series next Monday. If you

exercise can make a bum of your

be stuck with u fork and pronounc­
ed done. Biit not Jim—he pluyed
his opponent warily, testing here,
retreating there, allowing Bob to
wear himself out. Pretty soon Jim
had his calibre; he bent forward,
threw up his guurd before his face
and took about the head and hands
all Bob could find loose to throw
his way. Then Jim lowered his
gloves— and grinned. Bob dropped
his hands—in a flash Jim wus af­
ter him, streaking across the ring
after his weary opponent, ladling it
on at every chink in Bob’s de­
fense. Three rounds zipped by to a
decision for Jim that raised the
roof with wild yells and cheering.
Joe Lewis never had a more prom­
ising start.
