Mary M. Knight High
School's boys basketball
season ended on Monday
after losing in the 1B Dis-
trict IV third place game,
at Montesano High School,
to Taholah High School,
52-44.
The Owls (7-9) trailed
the Chitwins (16-6) 14-5 af-
ter the first quarter. Mary
M. Knight was only one out
of 11 from the field with
nine turnovers.
In the first half, Mary M.
Knight was two for 21 from
the field.
"Instead of squaring
themselves [Owls] up, they
[Taholah] were hurrying
their shot," said Mary M.
Knight head coach Tim
Diggle.
Mary M. Knight fell fur-
ther behind in the third
quarter, trailing 40-27, but
outscored the Chitwins 17-
12 in the fourth quarter.
The Owls won the re-
bounding battle in the sec-
ond half, 24-16, and created
13 turnovers in the second
half.
"We had them close to
that point," Diggle said.
"But they held their compo-
sure."
Junior Eric Johnson was
the Owls' leading scorer
with 18 points.
The Owls lost their two
previous meetings - Janu-
ary 22 (57-51) and Febru-
ary 1 (68-62). Diggle said
he wanted to face the Chi-
twins once last time.
"I felt we could take
them," he said.
In the district tourna-
ment's first round on Sat-
urday, the Owls lost to Co-
lumbia Adventist Academy
(11-0) at Centralia High
School, 79-53.
The Owls were led by
Johnson's 13 points. Sean
Sexton had 12 points.
Mary M. Knight gave up 22
points in the second quar-
ter and 26 points in the
fourth quarter.
Diggle said the Owls
should be a stronger team
next season, after winning
three more games than last
season (4-14).
"We improved leaps and
bounds in the team aspect
of basketball," Diggle said.
"We had a pretty good sea-
son overall."

A GRIPPING STORY
BY JOSEPH ZYGAR, ET.
There are
four simple
measures of
physical ca-
pability that
anyone can
use to predict lifespan. They are:
grip strength, the ability to walk
at a decent pace, the ability to rise
quickly from a chair, and the abil-
ity to balance on one leg. Analy-
sis of 28 observational studies led
researchers to identify these four
measures as predictors of lifespan.
People who performed better on
any of these four measures were
found to live longer than those
who did not. Most of the research
involved individuals over the age
of 70 years. While professionals
may use these measures to gauge
the need for intervention, any se-
nior can use them to assess his or
her own individual vitality status.
As key members of the health
care team, physical therapists are
specially trained to improve move-
ment, relieve pain, and restore or
achieve optimal recovery. Treat-
ment goals at our office are met
through pain reduction, muscle re-
education, join and soft tissue mo-
bilization and improved range of
motion and flexibility. To sched-
ule a consultation for physical
therapy, call SHELTON PHYSI-
CAL THERAPY AND SPORTS
MEDICINE at (360) 426-5903.
We have over 32 years of experi-
ence providing physical therapy
care. You'll fred us conveniently
located at 2300 Kati Ct., Ste. B.
New patients are welcome. Same
day appointments are available
and most insurance plans are ac-
cepted.
P.S. The four measures outlined
above can be used to help identify
seniors at risk for disability and
target them for treatment.

It has never been
so lmp0rtant
to advertise
In the Great Depression, W.K. Kellogg
continued marketing his cereals
while all his rivals were cutting back.
In doing so he pulled ahead of Post Cereals in sales,
a change that has never been reversed.
