PINTO-POINTS
Last fall this writer happened to
overhear a sports conversation ber
tween several lower classmen . . .
the students indulged in the dis
course varied their topics consider
ably, jumping around from one to
another, but the subject of specific
interest was the baseball team for
the then-coming spring, which hap
pens to be the present time . . . one
of the discussionists, an athlete of
fairly high calibre and a sophomore
in school, stated, "I bet I make the
team.' Another interested on-looker,
a frosh sports enthusiast, took the
fellow up on his statement, voicing
a contrary opinion . . . there were
two or three other fellows also will
ing to wager that he wouldn't make
the team . . . both parties involved
in the slight personal argument have
pobably forgotten about it, but just
as a reminder to the one who didn't
think his fellow student would gain
a position on the school ball club,
the confident party of the second
part did make the squad, as he said
he would ... in fact, he s doing quite
well by himself, getting one hit in
the Condon game and making two
runs ... his confidence proved en
couraging, as he didn't even turn
out for baseball last year.
Quite a bit was said about Ar
lington's taking the track meet at
lhat city last Saturday; however,
that was expected. Considerable
comment was roused by Heppner's
taking fourth, beating lone by half a
point, but little was put forth con
cernine the second-place track
squad, that of Lexington, our neigh
boring school with a masculine en
rollment hovering around the doz
en mark . . . hot only did the aJck
rabbits take 18 points for a second
to Arlington's 52, but they right
fully make claim to the meet's high
score man, Ellwynne Peck, with 13
points. He took two firsts and a sec
ond . . the little school seldom re-
ceives due credit . . . that's why this
section of the column is devoted to
that proposition. i
Robert Knox, local coach, insti
gated one of the most constructive
physical education ,ideas found in
this school to date when he took
foot-prints of the boys in high school
. . . merely taking prints of boys'
feet is nothing so breath-taking, but
his plan for correction of defects is
the best part about it ... the foot
prints of 60 boys were taken and out
of this number, 18 were found to
need attention ... 8 of them defin
itely had flat feet; while the re
maining 10, although not so bad,
were not in any too good a shape . . .
starting within the next week Mr.
Knox will have worked out some
corrective exercises for those need
ing them . . . after getting them
started, they can be carried on per
sonally without supervision . . . this
is entirely up to the individual, but
those who care to, will take daily
exercises for three weeks . . . re
prints will then be taken to see how
much advancement has been made
in that time towards the needed cor
rection . . . the foot faults cannot be
completely cleared up in the three
week period, but a good start can
be made . . . after that time, neces
sary additional exercises can be
pushed forward by those desiring
them.

Attention, Drivers!
During fifteen years of war there
were 244,357 U. S. citizens killed.
During fifteen years of driving there
were 441,912 people killed in the
United States,
These facts were taken from the
pamphlet, "Death Begins at 40," and
are. startling but true. All this death
is due to someone who doesn't think
or someone who doesn't care in
other words, CARELESSNESS tops
the list as the cause of accidents.
Remember at . a rate of 40 miles
per hour there is one chance in 44
that someone will be killed. At a rate
of 50 miles per hour there is one
chance in 19 that someone will be
killed. Death Begins at 40!
