gymnasium believed gave the ators.
Cubs the lead at 40-39. The Bears thought so too, for they tried desperately to get the ball back down the hardwood court for an-
other field goal attempt The noise was deafening but
finally Norman Morrison, one of the officials who had been blowing his whistle in vain, got the gunie stopped long enough to rule that Stites had been out-of-bounds near the press box on the north side of the playing floor and that there was no basket. Morrison gave the ball t* Sheiby-
ville for an :• -bounds play. \
The Bears stalled the final seconds taking the ball to the sidelines twice when the Cubs fouled trying to get possession. It was a tough tilt for Coach Tom Goldsberry's netters to drop as they arose to the occasion and came from behind to lead the visitors by six points. 36-30. in th fourth quarter Hal Eckstein. Shelby guard, shot three times in the closing minutes and rang up three buckets which feat proved the downfall of the locals

If possible, house idle machinery in a good shed. 2. Clean out all dirt and trash. 3. Tighten loose bolts, check for cracked or broken parts. 4. Apply rust preventive to unpainted surfaces. 5. Remove belts and canvas — store in a dry place away from rats, mice and birds. 6. Order repair pans now and make repairs this winter. Bring your machinery in now- for reconditioning.
