Duke-Wake Forest
Cagers to Battle
At Durham Tonight

Durham, Feb. undetermined to
settle some old scores, Wake Forests
sensational basketball team breezes
over here tonight to take on the
Blue Devils Of Duke, darned good
team that the fates have not smiled
upon any too kindly. The varsity
contest starts at $50 after frosh
encounter at Z o'clock.
The first of those old scores is the
52-41 licking Coach Eddie Cameron's
youngsters handed the Deacons at
Wake Forest early this season.
The other-and by far the major
one-is the jinx Cameron-coached
teams have had on Wake Forest since
the Duke mentor took over the
coaching reins in 1929. Since then
covering period Of II years and
i21 games-Wake Forest has been
able to get only one victory, by 81
80 in 1887. That has been thorn in
the side of Wake Forest basketball.
And by a quirk of fate, the Dea-
cons are in a position to do practi-
cally the same thing to the Blue
Devils that Duke did to them last
year. Dukes 41-40 victory over Wake
Forest in the Deacons' final contest
last year cost Wake Forest trip
to Raleigh However, the Blue Devils,
who went on to win the conference
title, needed that victory to get into
the event themselves. This year
Wake Forest is already sure of a
seeded post leading the race at pre-
sent and being the favored team to
come through the three-day affair
with the title.
If the Blue Devils can break out
of their hitting slump, the game is
likely to be a dog-fight. The Duke
boys have the wherewithal for
really fine team but they have been
watching their shots go into the bas-
ket and come out.

Why, Spain and Portugal as col

rican west coast opposite to South
Americas east coast, and are a great
deal nearer to it than any of Uncle
Sans ports are to sub-equatorial
South America.
Who cares for that, too? Spain and
Portugal?
Yeah! But suppose that Spain and
Portugal provide jumping-off places
from their Southwest African bases
for German and Italian naval and
aerial activities in eastern South
Americas direction!
It might develop into quite a fret
to Uncle Samuel.

Artificial sunlight is, of course,
obtainable and has it's value. Many
suitable lamps are available for
home use. It is not necessary for q
lamp used in the home to be as pow-
erful or as expensive as one used in
a DOCTORS office. A low intensity
quartz-mercury arc lamp, mercury
tungsten arcs with special ultra
violet transmitting glasses, and
carbon arc lamps are all suitable.
Violet ray generators usually pro-
duce very little ultraviolet and
should not be used with this idea
in view.
In general, so-called sun lamps
for the home are really safer than
the more elaborate ultraviolet light
generators, as they do not have the
danger Of over-dosage.

ricketts, was first described by an
English doctor long ago. He named
it after the old English word
s0rickke1a, meaning to twist. 1t is a
disease of nutrition, particularly
affecting the growing bones and
teeth. The child may have bulg-
ing, deformed skull, an underde-
veloped chest, twisted arms or legs,
knock-knees, bow-legs, or legs that
are twisted in several directions.
This is due to a failure of deposit of
calcium in the growing bones. Cal
cium (lime) is the ingredient that
makes the bones hard.
