One never knows how far appar-

spread.
Last week special train, carrying
delegates to the national convention
of Women's clubs at Kansas City,
stopped here in Oakland for a dele
gate. Mickey's band from Loeb Lynn
went to the station and played. A
number of people gathered there.
Mrs. Winchell, the delegate to the
convention, stated that this event
created quite stir among those on
the train. Whenever she had occasion
to be introduced to anyone, she was
always identified as being the lady
who got on the train at Oakland where
they had the lovely band out to play
for them.
There are many ways in which Oak
land and the mountain top can become
known to people.

Last week the Board of Education
expressed an opinion that the school
buildings should not be used during
school hours for purposes for which
they were not intended, such as
basketball, orchestra, or other similar
type of extra curricula activities.
Anyone who is acquainted with the
situation at Oakland high school will
no doubt agree that the boards
opinion is sound, but anyone will also
realize that such instruction is vital
part of every boys and girls educa-
tion.
Sixty-seven percent of the high
school is transported, and it is neces-
sary to have the whole program dur
ing school hours to give the great ma
jority of pupils its advantages. The
building is not sound proof. The music
room and auditorium are not placed
to make them serviceable as they
should be without disturbing other
classes. If possible they should be
serviceable.
If this opinion of the Board were
carried out it would curtail attempts
to offer boys and girls well rounded
and enriched program. Education
would go back fifteen or twenty years
because of inadequate facilities and
building.
According to the high school princi-
pal, it has already become necessary
to sacrifice participation in the annual
field and track day because there is
not sufficient playground space to
prepare the students for this contest.
1t is absurd that a school with
nearly one-half the high school en-
rollment of the county has a play
ground epace equivalent only to that
of a one-room rural school. 1t is time
for action of some kind.

to Eastern's rampant quint last
night. when it trounced Roose-
welt. 45-35, in the opener Of the
first double-header in the second
half Of the interhigh series at the
Tech gym. In the nightcap, NC
Kinley topped Central. 27-22, show
ing a consistent driving attack all
through the game.
The Lincoln Parkers went to
work with q vim to prove that its
first decision over the Rough
Riders, later lost by forfeit, was
no fluke. Roosevelt, however,
bolstered by the prodigious scor-
ing efforts of dinninutive B. Rob
ertson, high man in the game
with Is points, offered a stubborn
defense.
The combined efforts of Clint
Quantrille, Russ Lombardy and
Lee Lusby, with 13, II and Q
points respectively, proved too
much in the end, though, and
Roosevelt was displaced from the
three-way tie that existed for the
series lead, while Eastern went
into the lead.
EARLY LEAD
The Riders started things in a
lively manner in the first quarter,
holding an 8-6 lead about mid
way of the period. From there on
Eastern took charge Of the con-
test, widening the margin to 19-8
before permitting the opposition
to score again, and holding a
27-12 advantage at the half.
The third Stanza was practically
even, but, in the final session,
Roosevelt started on another spree
to bring its count within 10 points
of the winners, with a five-point
advantage in che second half.
A startling diversion took place
with about five minutes left Of
the game, when a sports photog-
rapher's flash bulb exploded as
he was taking a picture, scattering
bits all over the playing floor.
DEFENSIVE TILT
Defensive play featured the
opening of the second tilt, with
four minutes of the first quarter
passing before Tech opened fire
with q score and went ahead to
tally four more points before the
end Of the period, meanwhile hold
ing the CentraiteS to one lone
basket.
The second portion of the first
half went on in the same fashion
with the Trainers still acting in
a very unhost-like fashion, per.
mitting its opponents only two
more counters, meanwhile garner
ing seven more points to end the
half, 13-4.
John Tanning, stellar Central
baSketeer, apparently decided to
do something about this. how
ever, because he entered the last
half of the battle and scored ten
points for high in the game to
put his teammates into the run.
ming.
The early margin was too much
to overcome, nevertheless. and
Mckinley emerged on the long end
of the 27-22 count. Tannebum

winners with seven and six points,
respectively.

Washington and Lee Is a 2-to-1

Virginia, undefeated in the ring
this season and reported in fine
fettle for clouting tonight, has
been established 3-to-1 favorite
over Maryland. which tied Duke
in its opener a month ago and
lost to Catholic University last
Saturday.
American U. is a slight underdog
a against Randolph-Macon, al
though there are no comparative
scores to prove it. However, as the
other local fives are on the short
end Of the betting. there is no
reason why the Eagles cannot get
on the reversible bandwagon Of
odds.
Catholic U. boxing team, unde-
feated to date and meeting Duke
at Durham, N. c., is a slight un-
derdog for victory tonight, simply
because it is battling in enemy
territory. The Card followers can
hope for a tie.

In something like $4,000 homes

the door, man with his hat in hand,
not knowing how to break the news.
Aroused by the horrible tragedy of
these accidents, and, on the other
side of the picture, by their waste

men met that year and determined
to do something about it. Their de-
termination gave birth to the Ma

White and Whole Wheat FIours

White flour is made chiefly from
the endosperm. Whole-wheat, en-
tire-wheat and graham f1ours are
loosely applied terms which refer
both to products made by grind
ing the wheat berry without the
removal or addition of any ingre-
dent, and also to a -four from
which part of the bran has been
removed or to which bran has
been added.
One of the most prolonged dis
cussions of the last two decades
has involved arguments for and
against the use of white or whole
wheat -four in making various
types of bread and mullins. AS a
result, many people have been
confused and misled-0ften at the
expense of their enjoyment in
meals.
Here are the facts: White bread
contains important energy values,
proteins, some minerals, chiefly
potassium and phosphorus, and
when made with milk, it also sup
plies some calcium. 1t is easily
and almost completely digested,
tests indicating an average di-
gestibility of Sc per cent.
Bread and other bakery prod
ucts made from whole wheat flour
also contain proteins and carbohy-
drates, plus good amounts of iron,
copper, phosphorus and POTASH
UNI; and vitamins A, B and C.
The whole grain products are
less completely digested than
those which are highly refined,
however, so some of their nutri-
ents may be lost to the body.
When the two types of flour are
considered as sources of protein
and energy alone, they are re-
garded by nutritiOnists as practi-
cally interchangeable. Whole
wheat flour is conceded to be rich
er in minerals and vitamins, but
where white bread is preferred,
these elements easily can be sup
piled from other sources.
AS matter of fact, foods made
from both types of flour belong in
the well-balanced diet, where they
add variety and splendid food val
ues at minimum cost. And it
goes without saying that for many
purposes, only white -four is suit
able.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1938-10-06
For Energy and Vitality


The form in which wheat -four
makes its appearance on the table
is of less importance than the fact
that it is and should be an essen
tial item in the family food supply.
That is because it offers a rich
supply of fuel value at little cost.
The different types of flour contain
from 81 to rs per cent carbohy-
drates, from II to Is per cent pro-
tein, and varying amounts of min
eral salts and vitamins.
1t is necessary to know some
thing of the structure of the wheat
kernel and to understand how the
various fours differ, in order to
select the flour best suited for
each purpose. A kernel is made
up of several outer layers of bran;
a layer of cells high in phos-
phorus and protein, just inside
the bran; the endosperm, COM
posed of cells in which starch
granules are held together by pro-
teins; and the germ. The starch
cells are SO small that one kernel
of wheat may contain as many as
20,000,000 granules.
