slump by forcing Parkside to drop their
coIors while the Defiance Academy team
will have their hands full when they
play tho fast Hagley Academy team in

While the Defiance Parksidc game has

that the East Side team will come to
terms as they openly boast Of having

Defiance had things rather easy with
the I<irkwood Parkers winning easily.
Over-confldence is given as the main
cause of the purple and gold lads losing
streak. Figuring an easy time with
both West End and Pendcl the locals
entered the game fully confident that
they would have little trouble with their
opponents but met with the surprise
of their lives when they both command
eel an carly lead right at the start of
the games and when Defiance realized
the gap that separated them with scores
their last minutes rally fell short on
each occasion.

FEEDING CHICKENS AND

1t seems that some Of the chick

been losing quite a few chickens
lately, and the cause is laid to

oats wasn't an ideal chicken food.
| have in fact owned chickens that

Another thing to take into con-
Sideration is to be sure your chick
ems have plenty of sharp sand and
gravel. Remember that sand is
what grinds the food in the chick
