Q Facts about newb0rns:
1. Many babies heads get bit lop-
sided or pointed during birth. But the
EGG head" returns to its natural
rounded shape in a few days.
3. Little babies often look cross-eyed
Out rarely areD simply because they
can't control eye muscles just yet.
3. It's normal for baby to have a
receding chin. He's born that way so
he can suck better; but his lower jaw
develops fast.
4. Reddish blotches ON the back of
baby's neck or between eyebrows are
seldom true birthmarks. They are
quite common and usually disappear
before very long.
s. Little babies sneeze to get rid of
mucous or lint that tickles. Babies un-
der two weeks hardly ever catch cold.

Football Proven
3-Stage Value
For Nation n'sYouth
By BILL HORNEY
Smyrna High Football Coach

Football is a game Of life
Its preparation, participation
experiences, and results com
pare favorably with the life pro-
cess as we 60 about our duties
in the home, in the Office, and
in the community.
In contributing to the total
personality, football develops a
boy physically. 1t satisfies his
immediate desire for physical
contact. 1t provides an oppor-
tunity for him to go beyond the
limits of normal endurance.
Playing football puts a boy in
excellent physical condition and
teaches him good health habits
which are essential to continued
excellence.
Emotionally, boy must learn
how to control himself in order
to operate effectively under
pressure. Playing football teach
es him to defeat his weakness
and fears. Football provides an
opportunity for recognition; it
gives a sense of belonging. This
is basic need of all human be-
ings.
Socially, football helps a boy
learn that he must operate un-
der a pre-arranged system of
rules and regulations. Within
this framework, he learns how
to respect, communicate, and
cooperate with others who are
striving toward the same ends.
He experiences team play and
loyalty-loyalty to himself, his
group, and his community. He
is taught how to win modestly
and lose grudgingly, but grace
fully. Above all, he becomes an
industrious person because he
learns that laggards in a group
are looked down upon.
Finally, football develops a
mental toughness which is sell
dom experienced in our present
day mode of living. This mental
toughness is born of a burning
desire to excel and succeed.
This quality must conquer all
of a boys weakness, if he is to
be victorious. Football is one of
the few bastions of discipline
left for the American boy. 1t is
probably the only place where
a boy will be punished immedi-
ately and effectively for mis-
take or an infraction. Not only
will he experience punishment |
for his infraction but so will all
who are on his side.
A boy must have something
to do; he must be taught how to
do it; he must compete against
his contemporaries and display
a burning desire to accomplish.
He must do all these things
within set of rules. If he
cheats, he must be punished; if
he loses, he must be consoled;
if he wins, he must be rewarded.
