Coach Kirkland’s Catawba In
dians, fresh from an impressive
victory over the Bridgew'ater
Eagles, in which the Virginians
were taken for a 5 8 to 0 ride, have
improved their weak spots in both
offense and defense in order to be
at their best here this afternoon,
when they tangle with Dutch Mc
Clean’s Newberry Indians, twice
conquerors of Catawba in the same
number of years. Last year the
Newberry club turned loose a
heavy hard-charbing line and sev
eral fleet backs that outplayed the
local Indians, 19 to 6. This same
Newberry team, with the exception
of a few of the veterans, has re
turned intact for this year’s grid
iron campaign, and McClean has
high hopes that his great Captain
Beck will repeat his performances
of last year, when he ran through
the Catawba team almost at will,

S. Clay Williams
Head NRA Board
Administration assurances that
"sweeping changes by sudden flat
will be discouraged” went out to
business from the now multiple
headed Blue Eagle administration.
This word came directly from
Donald R. Richberg, lawyer who
helped mold NRA policies in their
infancy, and now directs an ad
ministration committee specially
created to advise Mr. Roosevelt on
NRA and other recovery policies.
Simultaneously, Clay Williams,
wealthy 5 0-year-old industrialist,
of Winston-Salem, was chosen to
head the National Industrial Re
covery board now vested with all
the busines-bossing powers once
wielded by Hugh S. Johnson.
Over both groups—policy mak
ing and executive—Mr. Roosevelt
tightened reins of personal super
vision in guiding NRA toward
next winter’s legislative gauntlet.
Williams’ selection as chairman,
after being the number one mem
ber named by Mr. Roosevelt, was
regarded as an obvious presidential
choice. In some quarters it was
considered significant that with two
labor men, two industrialists and a
disinterested fifth member it was a
business man who received the
post.

CARDUI for Cramps;
Was Soon Relieved
Women who suffer as she did
will be interested in the experience
of Mrs. Maude Orafton, of Belle
ville, Hi;, who writes: “For several
years, I suffered from irregular

be days when I would have to stay
In bed. I would get so nervous, I
was miserable. My aunt told me
to try Cardui. She believed it
would build me up, regulate me and
help the nervous trouble. I knew
after taking half a bottle of Cardui
that I was better. I kept on taking
Cardui and found It was doing me
a world of good. I am In good
health, which means a lot to me.”

Cardui benefited them. If it doea

Better Light Means Better Sight
Close work and poor illumination are largely responsible for the appalling number
of children and adults who are suffering from eyestrain. Eyes are too precious to
overwork under poor lighting conditions when good lighting can be had so cheaply.
