I'm light of the growing in
terest in archery, we have asked
a local archery club member to
offer few tips to the begin
ner.-Ed.)
With archery you can engage
in either target-shooting, field
archery shooting at animal-sil-
houette targets at various
ranges), hunting or fishing, or all
Of them.
Archery is a good sport for the
executive type who likes to keep
in trim without exercising to a
point of exhaustion. The answer
is in archery: sport which in
the past few years has been en-
joying a tremendous boom.
Some doctors say that archery
provides better all.around exer-
else than any other sport, and
does it with little exertion. 1t
toughens the chest and back
muscles, tends to flatten the
stomach and demands good pos
ture. 1t provides plenty of walk
ing and bending to retrieve
arrows.
Don't assume from all of this
that you can either be a good
archer without practice, or that
you can take it up successfully
without giving it some thought.
Your approach can spell the diff
ference between real enjoyment
and immediate Encouragement.
The biggest mistake a beginner
makes is being "overbowed".
That is, he starts with bow with
too heavy pull. The experienced
archer pulls a bow between As
pounds and 70 pounds, so a begin
ner should stay with a lower
weight bow until he develops to
one he fits.
The reason is that he is using
muscles that he uses for almost
nothing else. So not only would
he have trouble pulling a heavy
bow to full draw, but he would
be unable to hold his aim steady
on target.
Archery doesn't have to be an
expensive sport. You can buy an
inexpensive all-glass light bow for

1. Keep a snarp lookout for

Each year we kill thousands
of our youngsters in traffic acci-

tragic part of it is that most of
these deaths could have been pre-
vented.
The State Police superintendent
placed most of the blame for the
high child pedestrian fatality toll
on drivers. He admitted children
are often careless in traffic, and
that they bring about dangerous
situations. But he emphasized that
drivers can do much to counter
act the effects of this needless
ness.
Careful driving practices and
consistant alertness are the driv-

teeth, a service project of the East

story booklets for different ages,
and a series of posters on good
food and oral hygiene.
One feature of the display is a
pair of plaster models of the two
jawfuls Of teeth, greatly enlarged
in size. The childrens' grand
parents would probably call them
right away a set of "uppers" and
lowers" The upper teeth fit
down accurately on the lower
teeth, and a person can see how
they are supposed to help each
other. This huge model also is
used to show how to brush teeth
up and down, for sure-because

set that is the right size for

Shaw Meets
Parma Here
Friday Eve

Down a bit but not out by long
shot, the Shaw High Cardinals
will be out to pick up the victory
trail again Friday when they play
host to the invading Redmen of
Parma, starting at p. m.
The visitors from Parma are
tied with Shaw fof>the runner-up
spot while Lakewood occupies the
coveted top rung in the Lake Erie
League.
Coach Grant kibbel's cagers took
care of the Redmen in their first
encounter and they'll be battling
to duplicate the effort on Friday.
While the Cards are facing the
westsiders, most of them no doubt
will be eager to hear that Euclid
upset Lakewood
The Panthers have clicked in
their last three games and could
serve as spoilers for the rest of
the Lake Erie League schedule
even though they are far out of
the title chase.
Last week, Shaw was surprised
by determined Cleveland Heights
quintet in a third period squirt
that eventually brought victory to
the Tigers, 67-49. Until midway
in the third quarter, both teams
had battled on even terms. The
Tigers perked up and tailed four
quickies from the field and they
led 46-37 at the end of the quarter.
For a brief spell, Shaw showed
signs of catching up, but could get
no closer than six points before
the Heights crew "got hot" and
breezed to the 18 point upset vic
tory.
A victory over Parma while Eu-
cid topples Lakewood would give
the Cardinals a perfect "big night"
for next Friday when the Panthers
invade.
Let's get out tomorrow and
cheer the boys onto victory, even
though they'll be without the serv-
ices of big Bill Welsh.
See you all there-starting at
7 p. m. with the Junior Varsity
game.
