HARDING TOURNEY PROSPECTS HURT
 BY CROSBY WIN
Locals Take 36-32 Game Naugatuck, Central, LeavenwOrth Win Sched- uled Games

Successful shooting from the floor and good luck from the penalty line gave Crosby a 36 to 32 win over Harding high of Bridgeport in a free shooting Naugatuck Valley league game last night at the Wilby gym. The game was more or less of thriller. the teams exchanging the lead several times and going into the final eight minutes of play all even. Dunn's scoring ability and Ike Kern's field and foul goal at need ed moment, gave Crosby the little edge that was needed to win. though the visiting forwards and center kept popping at the hoop until the final blast of the whistle.
 Some Shooting
 For the winners, Dunn's 14 points including five field and four foul goals stood out, while Klein's 12 markers kept Harding in the bat tie, besides Cagginello's nine points. The local boys hoped into an early lead but Harding lost little time starting and the quarter ended 12 to 10 in Crosby's favor. The Park City crew made its best bid of the game in the second eight minutes, sensational shooting by Klein and Cagginello being responsible for 22 to F yead which the visitors held at half.
 Back and Forth
 Kern's crew snapped out o. their temporary lethargy soon after the third period started, but had to fight Harding all the way to cut down the four point lead, Dunn's circus shot knotting the count at the end of the third. Kern. Harnick and Alderson scored enough in the final period to put Crosby out in front enough to finish on the top side of the score board:.

Dress of Embroidered Organdie
BY MARY MARSHALL.

received most favorable comment from
all who have seen it is made CT emorold-
cred organdie. The flower motifs OF the
organdie are cut out carefully WIN
sharp scissors and used to fern flower
border for the sleeves, neckline and SIDE
peplums.
The idea CT cutting out designs from
the fabric to use as trimming is not
precisely new. A year or so ago there
were Powered chiffon dresses with cages
of cut-out chiffon flowers. That re-
quired considerable skill and even more
patience, but with the embroidered or
candle it is different, because the flower
motifs are considerably more substap-
tial than these of the chiffon.
The organdie dress shown was made
with taffeta slip several inches shorter
than the dress and this is the rule this
season with sheer cotton dresses. Some-
times there is a ruffle or ruche on the
bottom of the petticoat to accentuate
the flare. One charming net dress was
made over silk crepe slip or pettlcoat
with crisp taffeta rufnas around the
hem. This gave an unusually INTEREST
ing movement to the skirt.

Reducing the Waistline.

Since the low waistline in frocks has
been superseded by the normal or high
one, the problem of reducing wide
walstlineS has come to the front OF
course. nobody nowadays thinks OF
squeezing herself with tight corsets, as
women used to do in the period when
wasp waists" were the vogue. Foun-
dalton garments are used to give
smooth, slim lines to the figure, but
they are not the stiff instruments of
torture that our great-grandmothe
used as corsetS.
The modern woman realizes that in
order to look slender about the waist
she must get rid of superfluous, flabby
fat by exercise. Correct posture is also
very important. When the figure is
held as tall as possible, it is actually
more slender, especially around the
waist, than when it is allowed to
slump.
Here are a few exercise suggestions
for waist reduction:
Exercise Rowing. Sit on the floor
with knees bent and feet fiat on the
floor. Bend trunk forward with arms
extended out IN front at shoulder level.
Extend legs straight out in front, and
at the same time lean backward and
pull hands up toward the shoulders, as
though you were pulling on a pair of
oars. Swing trunk forward and bend
knees up as in starting position. Re-
peat the exercise slowly to 10 times.
Exercise Trunk sWaying. Stand
erect with feet pointing straight for
ward and heels about 3 inches apart
Raise arms above head and clasp
hands. Swing trunk over to the left
as far as you can without lifting feet
from floor or bending knees. Bend from
waist sideways. Rise and repeat to left
and right sides alternately 10 times
Exercise 3-Trunk twist Same start

Chill all salad ingredients and

quickly combine ingredients and
serve.
Knives may be sharpened en-
the edge of an ordinary red

Several large leaves of lettuce,
rolled tightly and kept cold,

Cut the leaves into half-inch
