A matter that we have dis
cussed before and will con-
dnue to attack is the fraudulent
claims of cure alls that we see
on TV and other sources of
publicity. The government is at
last concerning itself to ferret
ing out these frauds and stop
ping the mulcting of people
who seek these marvellous cur
es that prove worthless.
The public is gullible in many
instances, too much in fact to
their disappointment when they
discover that these so-called
cures are a fake and a fraud.
1t is stated that the nations
IL million arthitis sufferers are
bilked of $50 million dollars
every year in fraudulent drugs
and devices. We can not i'm
agine a practice more vicious
than deliberate deception of un-
fortunate people suffering from
a gripping disease for which
there is no final cure. But these
fakes mad frauds continue to
take money for cures that do
not exist. We can understand
why pain ridden people will try
anything to get relief and that
is where these quacks get
business.
Research continues to work
increasingly to find remedies
to combat arthritis, cancer and
heart trouble but as yet there
IS no remedy We feel sure that
when such is found that the
public will get first hand know
ledge and dependable treat
ment. You may buy many
drugs that claim to be a cure
when you are only impairing
your health and enriching these
fakes by purchasing these cure
ais. Your best friend is your
family doctor. Go to him and
listen to what he tells you.
Quit listening to the fakes and
frauds on TV and other sour
ces who are out to sell you
eomething that is worthless
for your ailment.

Blair Picked
By Some as
Loop fluffy

"This is a senior ball
club" Most of the
boys will have to go both
ways" and, Were not
as fast in the line, but we
have more size."
These quotes highlight Coach
Joe Goods remarks about the
1860 Blair football varsity which
several observers have rated
better than last years Bi-Coun-
ty co-champions, and if not the
favorite, at least the team to
beat in the league this fall.
The Bi-County League APP
pears to be stronger with bet
ter balance in it's eighth and
last year of existence. In addi-
ton to Blair, Wheaton, Walter
Johnson, Bethesda Chevy Chase,
Richard Montgomery, and per-
haps Bladensburg, have strong
clubs.
AS close as most of these
teams seem at the present time,
the race may be decided by a
flip of coin, a drift of the
breeze, the drop of the football,
or the way an ankle turns on a
key player any time during the
season.
Blair has a certain edge. Like
Richard Montgomery the Blaz-
ers had a fine backfield. But
unlike the Rockets, Blair had
size and depth in the line even
though some of the boys may
have to go both ways.
Had Heavy Losses
Blair lost seven key players
with graduation last June
Among them was Bob Jones,
An-County "Lineman of the
Year." Melvin Lewis, Gary Noel,
Clark Silvers, and Roger How
ell. In the backfield they lost
fulIback Joe Gamble, and scat
back Billy Mitchell.
But it is in the backfield
where they lost two key per
formers where they have theil
greatest strength this year. Re

club" Coach Tony Caruso said
early this week. They seem to
only play as hard as they have
to but then maybe it was
the heat"
This season the Warriors
have weight, speed and passing
but so far the club has lacked
steadiness. Some days they're
very good, and others they are
bad Caruso says. Two boys who
would have been starters Don
aid Holmes, a 200-pound center,
and David Rhodes, a 250-pound
tackle are sidelined with broken
bones. A flock of ankle and
wrist injuries have slowed
down the teams progress.
Basically, the team will be
formed around FIVE offensive
players returning from last
year. They are tailback Jerry
Hurley, a second-team ALL
County selection last season,
fullback Bob Williams, half
backs, William Martin and
Larry Parks and tackle Eugene
Harris. Although Sherwood has
II lettermen returning from
last year, most were defensive
starters or spot players.
Caruso is adding a spread
line to his single and double
wing formations of his multiple
offense this season to take ad-
vantage of his three hard run
ming fullbacks, Williams, 100,
Lynwood Jackson, 100, and Tom
Reynolds, 1876. Jackson, a junior
is rated the fastest boy on the
squad.
Returning lettermen are

fit should be: tough, light
enough that it won't tire their
tiny hands, trouble free, not
easy to come apart, and simple
to use.
The Zebco Model 101. answers
all of these and a few more.
Best of all, it's fairly inexpen-
sive.
The entire rod, reel and line
weighs less than seven ounces.
The rig is a one-piece outfit and
is short and responsive. Strong
enough to lick an old and heavy
catfish, the light rod will also
let a nice sunfish thrill you, too.
The reel is completely en-
closed, so the line can not both
err the youngster. An excellent
drag takes over if the child tries
to "horse" the fish.
Nom and Dad
Your wife would like to fish
with you at times, and you'd
like to take her. But, she soon
gets discouraged trying to use
complicated casting or spinning
tackle. The Model 101 Zebco is
Just the ticket for her.
For trout fishing on small
streams, or catching sunfish
and crappie, this little rig is
fun for anyone, including Dad.
