Superior Edges OFT ]. C.

The local Junior College Quint met
defeat at the hands of the Superior
Peds here last Saturday night by 81
to "a count in well played game.
Except for a few minutes early in the
third quarter when the visiting quint
obtained an eagle eye for the basket,
the locals had the better team on the
floor and held the upper hand OF play.
Ely started out strong and took four
point lead as Nicholas and Banovetz
dropped in field goals. Superior tied
the count soon after and then Ely
stepped out to take a ID to lead at
the end of the first quarter.
Superior spurted in the second canto
and brought the score up to 1915 but
Ely dropped in two more baskets to
take a 20 to IS lead at half time. In
the third period the Peds got hot and
dropped in five baskets before Ely
could stop their rally and Ely was on
the short end of 80 to rs count at
the end of the third period.
Ely outplayed the visitors In the final
period and looked like they We're going
to come out on top of the game but a
few hard luck shots rolled around the
rim and out instead of in so that the
final score favored the visitors
Superior is considered to be the best
basketball team in this section of the
country and have met but one defeat
this season, and this Superior claims
was a mistake. They have defeated
such teams as st. Olaf, st. Mary's Of
Winona, North Dakota and several
other high class teams and for Ely to
hold them to a close score meant con-
siderable.
Although the local quint was on the
short end of the final count they
played fine ball and were greatly handi-
capped by the size of their opponents.
Tomorrow night the local Jaysees five
will close their home season against
the Duluth Junior College quint and
the boys are out to give the home folks
their best brand of basketball and
another win. This will be the final
game to be played in Ely this season
by any of the teams.
Grahek for the locals and Herman of
the Peds each counted ten points to
lead their respective teams In scoring.
The entire Ely quint played good and
needed no excuse for losing the game.
The lineupS and summary follow:

The local high school quint kept up
their good work Saturday night when
they went to International Falls and
came home ON the long end OF a 80 TO
IS count. The locals had little diff
Guilty in drubbing the Falls quint and
their offense met with little opposition
with Ely scoring almost at Will. Inc
Falls boys found the Ely defense TOO
much to overcome and except for
few long shots by Hall, who played at
a guard post, the locals would have
trounced their rivals by a much more
lop-Sided count.
Grahek with six field goals and
Krall with five field goals and gift
toss led the Ely attack. Kran also
played a nice game at guard and
shared most of the honors along with
Grahek. Hall at guard and Papus at
center did the best work for the Falls
quint.
Tonight the boys go to Gilbert for
the last real hard game before the
tourney. Gilbert has been tough
team to beat all season and especially
so on their own court and the local
quint will have to be in the pink OF
condition to beat their rivals. Follow
ing the Gilbert tusSle, Ely will close
its season next week when they tackle

his time in the medley 1.16.3 drew

wing took the 40 by inches but was
forced to see himself beaten in the 100,
partly due to a couple of rather bad
turns. Elfving is still indicated in
the 40 and last Saturday was his first
defeat in the 100. The summary of
events were as follows:

HOW TO KEEP WELL

The year 1880 saw relatively new
plan of attack on cancer prematunely
presented to the public as "cure."
Claims for the new treatment which
involved use of hormones of certain
glands of the body, have, as yet, proved
unsubstantiated and the "cure" Is in
danger of dropping out of the realm Of
scientific investigation into the prac-
tice of quackery.
This episode in the worldwide
scientific movement to conquer cancer
is noted in q bulletin issued by the
Public Health Education committee Of
the Minnesota State Medical Associ-
alton.
Although warning against the talk Of
a "hormone cure" at this time, doctors
insist that great hopes for an eventu-
ally successful new treatment lie along
the "hormone" line. Workers in many
hospitals and Laboratories, including
one leading Minnesota scientist among
others, are continuing the investigation
and experiment.
The basis of "hormone treatment"
which is being successfully used in dia-
betes and other conditions Is to isolate
various products of the glands needed
in the fight of the body against GER
tain diseases. or responsible, through
their absence, for progression of the
disease. Such a hormone for cancer,
in for in which it can safely be used,
is still being sought.
The present status of the search
for a new treatment is set forth by
these physicians as:
mo exact method for cure of cancer
has as yet been reached. Surgery, X
rays and radium are still the stand bys
and virtually all cases of cancer can
be cured by these means If brought to
the attention of a physician early
enough"
But they point out the effectiveness
Of present methods depends upon get
ting to the doctor soon after initial
signs develop. These first signs In
clude: any unusual Jumps, especially
in the breast, persistent sores or other
skin peculiarities, and continued and
abnormal dribble Of blood.
Pains in children's legs, once casually
dismissed as growing palms," may be
a symptom of the dread, disabling

Although the Ely boys took five out
of eight first places, the locals lost to
Hibbing at Hibbing last Saturday by
a score OF 40 to 35. Coming through
with sufficient seconds and thirds won
the meet for Hibbing.
Minus the services of Joe Pucel, who
did not make the trip due to illness,
and several others under the weather,
our team was not expected to bring
home a victory this time. However, in
spite of the fact they were not up to
par, the boys put up a plucky fight and
did very well.

disease, rheumatic fever, members of
the Public Health Education Committee
of the Minnesota State Medical Associ-
alton point out in a bulletin issued.
Then again, they may be merely the
result Of fiat feet.
In either case the complaint is not
one to be considered lightly, one of the
so called inevitable Ills of childhood
which time win right.
Rheumatic fever in childhood is an
infectious disease, these authorities de-
clare. frequently 1t comes on exactly
as heavy cold or sore throat might
and is spread in just the same way.
Later there is painful soreness and
swelling Of one or more joints, and
high fever 50 that anyone can re-
cogni1e the nature of the illness. Or
there may be merely indefinite pains
In the legs, coming and going in a
manner that does not arouse suspicion.
More rarely the onset may be accom-
panied by chorea (St. Vitus dance.
THE serious thing" say the doctors,
"is not the pain, nor even the danger
of chorea, but the treacherous and
Gripping effect that rheumatic fever
has ON the heart. This is the COM
plication to be feared"
Damage to the heart is so frequent,
according to child specialists, that even
where no valvular injury can be de-
monstrated from one to two months
rest must be insisted upon in the or
binary case of rheumatic fever When
the heart valve Is involved the period
must be extended to six months or one
year depending upon its condition.
OF course every pain In the juvenile
leg is not rheumatic fever, the doctors
admit. In that event look for fiat
foot. Or two flat-feet. In the alb
sence of fiat feet growing pains especi-
ally where fever is present are likely
to mean q mild rheumatic fever

Portable process Pain In childhood is
not normal and always requires at

Proper braces and proper exercise,
under direction Of the family physician
and properly made and fitted shoes
win take care of flat-feet. Neglected,
this condition, 1t Is declared, may lead
to serious trouble.
