AuguHt 28. 1952 «—THE MILL CITY ENTERPRISE SPORTS PAGE Lind Florists Take Portland Orphans By RUSS BROWN Mill City was treated to an assort ment of CURVES, base-hits, and gen eral all-around good ball playing Thursday night, as Erv Lind Florists defeated the Portland Orphans. Both teams are from the Portland area. It was a display of softball talent by girls such as has never been in Mill City before. Lind Florists got off to a six-run h-ad in the first inning, and main tained an advantage the rest of the nine inning game. On their side of the ledger, Pat Carson hit 3 for 5, including a two-base hit; Caroline Fitzwater slugged out a home run, and Spady got a triple. For the Port land Orphans, Bev Wadsworth got a triple. Doris Barrett showed why she is one of the foremost girl softball pitch ers in the nation. She was very effec tive in allowing the Orphans but three hits for the entire nine innings. Thelma Parrish Carlson, being a particular favorite, looked very good out there on the mound, but she was | up against some sluggers from Lind’s.

The force with which you strike a solid object increases as the square of your speed.

Black Bear Causing Much Excitement By JEAN ROBERTS Seasoned vacation travelers have found it a wise precaution to tuck in a corner of the suitcase a few basic first-aid materials for emergency use when they are far from home and the family medi cine cabinet. Prompt cleansing of i small hurt and a protective dressing to keep it clean may prevent a nick or scrape from turning into a serious wound via the infection route. No one likes to wear a conspi cuous or quickly-soiled dressing, but the new ready-to-use plastic dressings, with the gauze pad already affixed to the adhesive, take care of this. These flesh colored rectangulai strips, square patches and circular spots (they come in the same box) blend with flesh tints and tit like a second skin. The patches and spots seal all around. It is easy to keep these plastic dressings clean. Their smooth sur face sheds grime. They are water proof. so they don’t get loose or soggy when wet. That means you can wash them clean, without washing them off, when you wash your hands or bathe. A large proportion of disabling injuries are the end result of the neglect of minor hurts. Infection is always lurking around the corner when the skin is broken. It doesn’t pay to take chances with any hurt on the theory that “It can't happen to me. Marion Forks — A truculent black bear is causing excitement in the Marion Forks area. The bear, a daily visitor, at the small logging camp, called Wilsonville,’ about a mile above Marion Forks, has frightened the women and children in camp, and pil- i fered supplies and garbage.
