Sports association today over
the last major hurdle toward

speed ahead" in construction

Harris county voters went
to the polls Tuesday and ap
proved, by a narrower than
expected margin, a $22 mil

stadium and access roads to it.
Ron Hofheinz, chairman of
the HSA and former Houston

the new stadium would begin
within the next two weeks.

Miles Sparks
Seattle Victory
Seattle -(UPD- Sophomore Ed
Miles spearheaded a last-ditch
scoring drive Tuesday night to
carry Seattle university to a
66-60 victory over Portland in
a bitterly fought basketball
game.
Miles finished with a game
high of 29 points but it was his
scoring splurge with less than
three minutes to play that
saved the day for the Chief
tains. Largely on the hot second
half shooting of Art Easterly
and Jim Altenhofen, Portland
pulled to within two points at
56-54 with less than three min
utes to play.
Then Miles got hot. He
banked one off the boards
from deep in the right hand
corner and followed seconds
later with another bucket as
he swept in from the left side
of the key.
Portland came back with a
field goal but Miles then
dunked two foul shots, Jim
Preston added a field goal and
Miles canned another bucket
and the Chiefs were out in
front 66-56. Portland scored
the final four points of the
game as time ran out.

Ever Hear of a
Cat With Ulcers?
Did you ever hear of a cat
developing stomach ulcers, in
spite of the expression, "as
nervous as a cat"? Ever hear
of feline hypertension? Nev
er. And all in spile of the well
established biological fact that
the members of the family of
animals known collectively as
felines are normally high
strung and inclined to be more
than a little nervous.
The cat accomplishes tran
quility, good health and an
easy - life by adhering to a
rigid program of complete re
laxation: by never letting any
thing interfere with frequent
rest periods. She does this so
perfectly that the expression
"cat-nap" has come to mean
any short sleep.
Never Hurries
A cat never hurries her
meals, regardless of how hun
gry she happens to be. She
may not plan it but she allows
herself about so much time for
short naps. Sleep, to a dog or
a cat, or most any animal, is as
important as food. In fact any
of these animals could prob
ably live longer without food
than they could without sleep.

DIAMOND JUBILEE BIRTHDAY CAKE
SO-We're Open 'Till 9 Tonight !
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1961
Small Worlds
Around Us
By Lynn M. Watkins
(Hcgisler and Tribune syndicate,
1961)
Sleep is something that even
the biologist, doctor or lay
man knows little about; it h::s
been called the "little death,"
and for good reason. I'. is the
subject of endless debate. Ev
eryone admits sleep is of the
utmost importance, but aside
from that we haven't got very
far with a complete under
standing of it.
The cat that sleeps in a re
laxed heap in your home and
her wild cousin in the jungle,
always nap after a full meal.
At such times all animals be
come sleepy, and they all
know enough to seek out a
comfortable place and doze
off; it seems to be a natural
result of a full stomach.
Man himself feels the same
way, but usually fights it off
and hurries off to his next
assignment. Ho has to hurry,
in spite of the fact he actually
is not going anywhere.
Even fish and snakes, who
can never close their eyes,
spend many hours in slumber.
The fish slows down his bod
ily activity, comes to rest, and
dozes. Keep a fish awake for
a long time and it becomes
nervous; if the experiment is
kept up, the fish will die.

Safety Patrol Tours
City Police Station
Lone Pine The Lone Pine
safety patrol visited the Med
ford city police station Tues
day, Jan. 31. This is an an
nual affair and permits stu
dents on the patrol to learn
more about traffic safety.
The safety patrol is on duty
both mornings and evenings at
the Lore Pine-Brookdale in
tersections. Patrol members
are Patrick Wickersham, Capt.
Bobby Stearns, Adclle Chis
um, Carolyn DeWeerd, Terry
Grover, Karen Stinger and
Judy Chisum.
Birds make a regular ritual
of sleep. They take frequent
"birdnaps" throughout t h e
day; every afternoon, especial
ly during hot weather, every
bird retires t, what it hopes
is a safe place, closes its eyes,
and sleeps. And birds, too,
have escaped the discomfort
of stomach ulcers or nervous
disorders.
It's impossible for most of
us to watch a fish, a raccoon,
or even a horse or cow, but
most folks can watch a cat,
dog or parakeet; these crea
tures all have good sense
they sleep at frequent inter
vals. They never hurry, but
who wants to play host to a
colony of stomach ulcers or
jumpy nerves? The line forms
right behind the guy with the
twitching muscles and the
nervous stomach.
