NATURES STRONG BOY

Strongest natural substance in the
world for its weight is said to be
the lumber from the Sitka spruce
tree which is found along the Pa
cific coast from Oregon to Alaska
Almost as strong is the lumber from
the giant west coast hemlock and
Douglas fir which grow intermin-
gled with the Sitka spruce These
woods are so strong they We're used
to build bomber and fighter planes
during World Wars l and II. but
their greatest use is as the strong

nations homes, schools. churches
and farm buildings.

Hex

One of the strangest hexes in
sports was at an end today as the
Fort Wayne Pistons continued
their drive upward in the Ma
tional Basketball Association
standings.
Last night. for the first time
since 1948, the Pistons won a
game in Syracuse. They beat the
slumping Nationals. 92-87. to
move within half a game of the
st. Louis Hawks, Western Divi-
sion leaders.
The Pistons had dropped 26
straight to the Mats in Syracuse
plus the opener of a double
header to New York.
Fort Wayne took command in
the second quarter, moving into
a 1897 halftime lead after the
count had been deadlocked 10
times. The Mats Dolph Schayes
was the games high scorer while
Bob Houbergs and Chuck Noble
paced Fort Wayne with 10 points
apiece.
