On Friday Sidney plays at
Great Falls Central and Glasgow
1t Havre. Saturday Sidney moves
| over to Havre and Glasgow goes to
Great Falls. All four games should
be close.
Havre and Great Falls Central
lead the pack with 40 record. Sid
ney is in third place 81 and Glas-
cow 4 3 is in fourth. The Blue
Ponies and Mustangs have been
die in conference play for a
month.
Sidney takes to the highways
for its toughest road trip of the
season. Both opponents pre-
season favorites and the results SO
far indicate the Projectors knew
what they were talking about.
Great Falls has the tallest all
around team in the conference.
Their starting five will average
about 81" but they could easily
shift their lineup and average two
inches more.
The Mustangs hold conference
wins over Lewistown, Laurel, Har-
din and Billings Central. Last week
they swamped Glass B Dillon, a
club that gave league leading Class
AA Butte Central a close game.
Coach Swede Bushly's all veter-
an starting five will have Jim Per-
sha, 81" and Ron Janikula, 6'3" at
forwards, SO" Joe Minnehan at
center and $40" Bill Shikany and
Vukasin $40" at the guard spots.
In addition 6'3" Bob Langhi and
6'1" Tom Burns will see a lot of
action. Since joining the league
four years ago a Mustang team has
yet to defeat the Sidney club.
Like the Mustangs, Havre has
a veteran ball club to throw
against the Eagles. A year ago this
was n Of the few teams to give
Sidney trouble and that being in
the semi-finals of the state tour
ney.
Coach Kenneth Peel's squad has
defeated the same four teams in
the conference as Central and has
1~on-league wins over double A
Great Falls and Glasgow. Last
week they lost in double over
lime to Great Falls public.
Their starting five will include

and g. Orville Warwick

City Council News
BY Harold Mercer

Another new year has started
and we of the city are looking
forward to a year of porgress and
growth. The city is in sound
financial condition and we feel
that we will be able to handle
the problems the future brings.
The year of SO should see the
completing of many things which
this administration has started
for the betterment of the COM
munity.
We received our first payment
Of taxes the latter part of De-
cember and we find that there
was less than three thousand
dollars worth of registered war
rants to redeem. This compared
to last year when we had almost
fifteen thousand dollars worth
shows the effort that has been
put forth to bring an efficient
operation to all city depts.
Did you know that the city
has over IL miles of eve lines
in the city limites to maintain
and replace when necessary? This
is done at a very low cost to you,
only SO cents per month to a
residential owner with the bussi-
ness property slightly higher.
SO dog licences are now on
hand. A follow up program which
was started last year will con-
tinue this year. More dogs yer
destroyed and more licences rel
bought than ever before. Lets all
cooperate and get that dog his
licences within the next several
weeks.
If you have noticed the mid
night oil burning at the city
hall of late it is only because we
are trying to wind up the codifica-
ton of the city laws. This is a
program that was started about
a year ago and has now reached
the completion stage. With the
completion of this program it is
our hope that we will have a set
Of ordinances that will be practi-
cal, workable and enforceable.

Since potatoes are so delici-

wives seldom take advantage of

says. One of the fastest and

addition, the commission will

Potato Top Friend
OF Family Budget

Boil it, broil it-mash it, hash
it - saute it, souffle it = dice,
slice or rice it. Use the potato
in every course from soup
through dessert, says Florence
Y. Smith. The potato is the best
friend the family food budget
has, on year-in-year-out basis.
1t makes the food dollar go far
ther without reducing the quail
ity of family meals.
Not only does the potato sup
ply a large number of valuable
minerals, it is also an import
ant source of vitamin c. Every
so often some food faddist
claims that potatoes are "fatten-
ing" because they conta in
starches. 1t would make better
sense to say that potatoes are
78 percent water, Mrs. Smith
points out. Actually, in addition
to all it's good nutritive quail
ties, one medium baked potato
has only 95 calories.
To get more pleasure out OF
potato eating, buy the firm,
smooth ones and don't store
them in dry places around the
kitchen. They will shrink and be
prone to disease. If stored pro-
perly, potatoes will keep for
several months, a blessing to the
family budget. You can keep the
quality high by storing them
where the temperature hovers
around 40 degrees. Let them
keep at 35 for any length of
time and they're likely to devel-
op an unpleasant sweet taste.
The bin should be high in hu-
midity but not wet, Mrs. Smith
warns.
The most nutritious part of
potatoes is just beneath the skin
so cook them in their jackets
whenever possible. If not, keep
peelings thin. Plain baked pota-
toes are good, but try scooping
out the steaming pulp, MASKING
it with sour cream, chives and

Christmas Toy Selection Should
Be Made With Tot Safety In Mind

With Christmas just around
the corner, children seem to
want almost every toy they see.
Parents and others buying toys
for children should select toys
that are safe to play with, re-
minds Miss Patricia Middleton,
home m an a G e ment specialist
with the Agricultural Extension
Service, University of Delaware.
Unless toys are chosen with
care, they can lead to tragic
accidents such as lead poison
ing, suffocation, explosions, fire,
cuts or broken bones.
Here are a few simple rules
to keep in mind as you shop
for children's toys. They can
help assure a safe and happy
holiday season for your chill
dren.
l. Toys for baby or very
young children should be wash
able, and large enough not to
go into the mouth, ear or nose.
They should never be of break
able materials such as glass or
of flammables such as celluloid.
2. Wheels of wooden toys
should be attached with screws
not with carpet or thumb
tacks.
3. Eyes of animals should be
sewed on-not fastened with
pins.
4. Edges of metal toys should
Smyrna times., 1959-12-10

be rolled or turned in. Corners
should be rounded.
5. Tea sets should be made
of material which if broken, will
not produce sharp edges.
6. Horns, whistles, b b b e
blowers, mouth harps, or any
other type of toy which requires
the use of the mouth, should
be made strongly enough to
prevent the user from sucking
parts of it into his throat.
7. All toys made of lead or
colored with lead-base paints
should be avoided. Read the
label before buying a toy to
see if a non-poisonous paint
was used.
8. Electric toys should have
the label of the Underwriters
Laboratories on the cord and
on the toy itself to insure safe
construction.
9. Kite strings should be made
of non-conducting materials.
Wire or tinsel string such as
that used for tying Christmas
packages, may cause an elec-
trio shock if the kite drops "a
cross a power line. A cotton
string is safest but any string
will conduct electricity, if wet.
10. All chemical sets are po-
tentially dangerous. The new
owner should be taught to use
chemicals and not be allowed
to mix" at random.
