FAGE TWO IfEDFORD MATT, TRIBUNE. MEDFOItll. OREGON, TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1935. OLD TEAM SPIRIT (Melt Appl'tal.) With spirit of good fellowship manifesting ltselt a aplrlt which has been sadly lacking most of the time this year the high school baslcotnail Kan 1 rapidly approaching perfeo tlon a they prepare for the Invasion of the Chemawa Indians, who play the local here Prlday and Saturday. Plays are beginning to click. Long shots are beginning to connect. Short ahots are no longer rolling off the rim. But above all. the players are beginning to smile at each other, and applaud a well-executed maneuver. No longer do they glower and bristle when another man runs Into them, as was the case a few short weeks ago. Last night, two of the men came together under the basket, like a head-on train wreck. Both men went sprawling, but were on their feet In a second, with big grins for each other, and were back In the fray almost before the whistle could be blown. Ray "Stretch" Ettonger, one of the victims of the crash, sustained a twisted ankle, and his teammates were really solicitous about It. Things like that are what gives the fans the hope, and sneaking suspicion, this teem la going to lick the pants off the highly-rated Indians. A really well-executed play In bas ketball Is one of the most graceful and satlafylng things to watch in the whole sporting world. With no grandstanding, no attempt to sta.. no Jealousy of the man who even tually sinks the basket, a well-ollMt and smooth-running offense Is the thing that the fans like to see. And that's what they're Olng to aee Fri day and Saturday. Of course there'i ' thrill In watch ing the high arch of a long shot from the center of the floor, and when It flicks the atrlnss with a awlsh, there's a certain satisfaction that la hard to get In any other way. But there la always an element of luck entering Into the thing, an element that Is almost completely lacking In the other the play that works the ball In with quick, clesn passing, with cuts Intended to draw the defense out of place, to obtain an opening. When that opening Is ready, to see a man dodge Into It, take a fast, and to the opposition a surprising, pass from a teammate, with the leap and turn that nearly alwaya scores that's the kind of satisfaction that one can't get from watching a toain that Isn't working together. Tho kind of aatlsfactlon that Is complete, with luck playing a small part. A new combination was tried last night, with VanDyke and Luman on the first five. With Eltenger. Kuna man and Smith completing the first string, a fast workout waa held, and playa were snapping Into line. Per haps had It not been for the desper ate guarding of the Tiger Cubs (who are now no longer Tiger Cubs, but varsity squad menl. the plays would have clicked even more regularly, but at least the team Is getting real re sistance. And the kind of close :e. slatance that, with a grin, disputes every single point, la the kind that the team needs and likes.

You can postpone the time when it will be necessary for YOUR children to wear them if you will give as much care and thought to their eyes as you would to any other phase of their health and well being. Says an editorial in'safety engineering: "Poor lighting in the home, and lack of supervision of the manner in which children misuse their eyes in the home are largely re sponsible for the fact that one out of three pupils leaving our elementary schools have defects of vision in varying degrees." If you have children in your home watch their eyes. They seldom realize th? damage they are doing to their eyes by straining them. YOURS is the responsibility. Poor vision is usually caused by straining the eyes when reading and studying; and mst eyestrain is caused by bad lighting. This can easily be remedied.
