THE WORTHLESS STAGE

THE WORTHLESS STAGE
 A reader says all her teeth were extracted a few weeks ago, as they were loose. Her gums have shrunk considerably, and her friends tell her she should have 8 temporary plate made and wear it now or else 1t will become more and more dif- ficult for her to wear plates at all. But her dentist says she must wait two or three mnothS, as there are some small tooth fragments or splinters working through the gums and she will not be able to endure the pressure of plate until these fragments have worked out. (G. R0
 Competent dentists install plates, not temporary plates but the plates the patient will wear per- manently. immediately after ex- traction of the teeth. If any frag- ments or splinters remain in the jaw after extraction these should be removed at once, and not left to work out.
 It is a serious matter to go tooth- less for weeks or months, not be- cause the gums shrink, but because the general nutrition and health of the patient inevitably suffers from the interference with digestion which always occurs when the food Is not well masticated.
 The public scarcely realizes and too many physicians and dentists seem to ignore the importance of salivary digestion. The chewing of food, particularly the sources of carbohydrate material from which we get most of the energy required to maintain the vital functions and ldo the muscular work of the body, lis an essential part of the digestive process-and no artificial prepara- tion of the food can quite serve the purpose of this maStication. Be- sides mixing the food thoroughly with the saliva, and thus subject

NEA Service stsff Writer


 Many a woman whose street and evening clothes always are u!tra, fattering somehow seems to get all mixed up when it comes to actAVe andsspectator sports outfits. It's pretty amazing to see a gri who never wears tight, slim sklrtS, because she thinks the shape ol her legs not quite good enough to stand such severe lines, blossom out on the tennis court in short, un pleated shorts. Or to see one who always wears a girdle under day dresses refuse to wear a panty glrole under slacks.
 Sports Clothes Just as Revealing If your neck and shoulders are so thin that you always choose coyered-up rather than decollete dance frocks, why is there any reason to believe that halter tops are going to be smart with slacks? wouldn't shere, cool blouses with very short sleeves be better idea?
 If you are more than size 18, think twice before you buy lnexpen- sive slacks. Generally speaking slacks for larger women should be impeccably tailored another way of saying that they'll be fairly ex- pensive.
 Remember Your Figure Faults
 If you indulge yourself in sheer, sheer stockings because you know your ankles and calves are just a little too thick to risk slightly more sturdy hose, then don't make the mistake of wearing ankle sosks with play clothes. Ankle socks make ankles look thicker.
 If you spend great deal of time looking for day dresses with suotly placed fulness that conceals the fact that you are fat-chested, don't spend less time searching for 9 bathing suit which also will conceal your figure faults. And don't forge! that a bathing suit with a f1ared skirt will hide a tendency toward Ihipy,ipeSS

Wilmington Is to Test
American Loop Leaders
At Turner'S Friday

With the Washington Brewers
pro basket ball team pointing for
its first home game in the American
League at Turner's Arena on Friday,
Coach Mack Posnack at least be-
heves he has collected cage crew
capable OF playing championship
ball.
With record OF four wins and
one tie in five games, the Brewers
appear ready for Fridays encounter
here against Wilmington Blue
Bombers. In addition to this, the
Brewers go to Trenton for a game
on Saturday.
Outstanding so far has been the
work of veteran Nat Frankel. who
looped 13 points against the Sphas
as Washington won in Philadelphia
last Saturday to raise his season
total to Al points. Moe Dubilier
then playing his second game Of the
season, was responsible for 10 points
indicating he will be a valuable
player this year.
That win over Philadelphia S
championship outfit put Washing
ton on top with two league victories
in as many starts. The other tri-
umphs were against outside COM
petition.
Posnack will attend league meet
ing tonight in New York. General
business will be discussion Of revised
schedules, playing contracts and
salaries. Posnack may file a protest
against Trenton for calling of last
Fridays game and for claiming the
services of Dave Paris. who had been
signed by the Brewers.

Purdue Coach Would
Revamp 10-Second
Basket Ball Rule
Has FuiIed to Prevent
StoIIing, Says Lambert,
Mentor for Is Years
BY the Associated Press.

LAFAYETTE, Ind. Dec. 10
Ward (Piggy) Lambert, starting his
twenty-fifth year as Purdue basket
ball coach, said in retrospect today
the 10-second rule probably was the
biggest change made in the game
in his time. but IT don't think it
accomplished its purpose"
Lambert's silver anniversary team
began its season of basket balls
golden jubilee year last night by
beating Wabash College, his alma
mater, Al to 20, while the 52-year-
old mentor gave orders from the
sidehnes.
Slows Defense, He Says.
The rule that the team gaining
control OF the ball In its own de-
fense territory must take 1t into
the other teams territory in 10
seconds didn't, he said in an inter-
view, kill the stall, as intended,
and should be revamped.
They destroyed the underlying
principle of the game when they
made the offense bring the ball over
the line to the defense" Lambert
said.
Because there's nothing in the
rules to say the defense has to come
up and meet the offense. And when
the defense is behind it refuses to
come out after the ball"
