BY JOHNNY CRAIti With a pair of impressive non conference football wins under their belts, the West Brunswick Trojans will enjoy an open date this Friday before returning to action Sept. 20 hosting Mullins, S.C.

The Cougars managed 73 first half rushing yards on 24 plays as they trailed by only 14-7 at inter mission. "We ran right at them in the first half and tried some pitch outs in the second half when West closed things off in the middle," said South Brunswick coach following Mon day's game. The kids just couldn't make the blocks and we dropped die ball at least 10 times in the sec ond half." The Trojans, who have outscored their opponents 72-7 thus lar, came close to getting their second straight shutout. However, the Trojan slop unit yielded their first points of the sea son to South Brunswick late in the first half when Cougar quarterback connected with split end Keith Mar lowe on a four-yard touchdown toss. The seven-play, 72-yard scoring drive was aided by 50 yards in West Brunswick penalties including three consecutive, 15-yard personal fouls. "We showed a lot of unsports manship-like conduct tonight and a lack of discipline," said Seay fol lowing Monday's game. "It's just something that I'm going to have to gel out of them."

You impart knowl edge and strive to stimulate a desire to learn. When a student is having difficulty, you try to help him or her acquire skills needed for learning. Many of those learning-related skills are vision skills. As a teacher, you are in a unique position to detect symptoms of learning-related vision problems in your students. These problems are not detectable by a school eye chart test. They also can be overlooked during a quick eye examination used to tell whether or not a child needs glasses. Yet symptoms often appear when a child tries to use his or her vision in the classroom. This happens during at least 80 to 90 percent of the school day and you are the key observer. What you can do Following is a checklist of symptoms of learning-related vision problems. Record your observations of a student on it and then discuss them with the school nurse and parents. When recommending a comprehensive optometric examination for the child, ask parents to give the doctor of optometry your checklist. Your ob servations can be important in helping to diagnose a subtle leaming-re lated vision problem. Students who should be referred for a comprehensive optometric exami nation and vision analysis are: ?Those in whom one or more of the checklist symptoms appear frequent ?Vhose in the lower third of the class and particularly those with ability to achieve above their percentile ranking. ?Those who, although achieving, are not performing within reasonable limits of individual capacity. When referring students for vision care, ask parents to have the optome trist contact you to discuss test results. Often, he or she will suggest things you can do to help a student undergoing treatment for a learning related vision problem. If the child lacks visual maturity for his or her age, the optometrist may suggest placing him or her in a lower grade. The Checklist Three areas of concern in detecting symptoms of learning-related vision problems are highlighted in this checklist. Use one check (?) to indicate a symptom occurs occasionally and two checks (??) to indicate frequent occurrence. Appearance of the Eyes Eyes crossed or turning in, out or moving independently of each other ? ? Reddened, watering eyes, encrusted eyelids, frequent sties. ? ? Behavioral Indications of Possible Vision Difficulty Dislike or avoidance of close work ? ? Short attention span for the child's age or frequent daydreaming ? ?
