often must
rely on a
cane to take
the body's weight off the affected
joint, thereby reducing the de-
mand on inflamed or weak mus-
cles and tendons. Patients should
begin by holding the cane in the
hand opposite the side that needs
support and positioning the cane
about four inches to the side of the
leg. When weight is shifted to the
stronger leg, the cane tip should
be placed a few inches ahead; the
weaker leg is then brought for-
ward and even with the cane. It is
at this point that the cane is help-
ing to support the body's weight.
Next, the strong leg is brought up
even with the cane, and the whole
sequence begins again.
A cane or walker can bring the

The Shelton bowling team knocked over two more op-
ponents last week.
On Tuesday, Dec. 6, the Lady Highclimbers defeated
Klahowya 5-2 at West Side Lanes in Olympia.
"Last year, Klahowya came up and beat us so I was im-
pressed last week," said head coach Curt Snyder. "The girls
bowled well against Klahowya."
Mishawn Ewart led the team in both game one and two
with scores of 204 and 223. Caitlyn Borys scored second
highest in game one at 136 with Danielle Ewart close be-
hind at 131 and Lindsey Cox in fourth with a score of 126.
In game two, the team was joined by junior varsity bowlers
Holly Hayman, who bowled a 152, and Jessica Rowlett, who
bowled a 142.
On Thursday, Dec. 8, the Lady Highclimbers defeated
Foss 7-0.
"Because of the statistics, I kind of thought that Foss
wouldn't be real competitive and it turned out they weren't,"
Snyder said. "It's hard to step back and not bowl your best,
but the girls bowled well against Foss. They call it 'sand-
bagging' when you don't bowl well and intentionally miss;
the girls did not do that."
Danielle Ewart led the team against
Foss with scores of 233 and 168 while
Mishawn Ewart scored 211 and 156. Bo-
rys contributed with scores of 196 and 171
while Brittany Smith scored 147 and 121
and Cox scored 99 and 120.
The Lady Highclimbers competed
against Wilson on Tuesday, Dec. 13, but
results were not immediately available.
The team is scheduled to bowl next at
Mishawn
3 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 15, against Tim-
Ewart berline High School at West Side Lanes.
"Timberline and Wilson are the top two
teams, I feel, in the league besides the
Highclimbers," Snyder said. "We all bowled together in a
fundraiser tournament this past Saturday and Wilson and
Timberline both beat us."
Regardless of how the Lady Highclimbers do this week,
the team will continue to bowl league matches after the
new year and Snyder said the league tournament is sched-
uled for mid-January.
"All of the girls are improving, as are other teams," Sny-
der said. "The Highclimber girls are doing well. The C-team
girls are improving the most because they're the newest.
Every week, one or two girls is exceeding their highest
scores, so that's kind of fun."
As for .Cascade League standings, Danielle Ewart is lead-
ing the 4A with an average of 182 in 16 games. Her average
is just one point ahead of Central Kitsap's Myranda Stout
for the same number of games.
"Wilson has caught up to us as far as team averages and
has exceeded us in baker games," Snyder said. "Timberline
is right behind us."

"The hoop shoot is some-
thing the Elks do to pro-
mote community through

chairman Gloria Hoge. "It
works up to a national lev-
el through the Elks."
Hoge, an Elks member,
said the way the tourna-
ment works is that it starts
at each of the local schools.
Boys and girls are divided
into age groups - 8 to 9, 10
to 11 and 12 to 13.
"The kids each ge~ 25
shots and whoever makes
the most in each age group
for the boys and girls goes
on to the Hoop Shoot,"
Hoge said.
At the Hoop Shoot, all
children will be given par-
ticipation bracelets. Orga-
nizers will hand out tro-
phies to second-place fin-
ishers. Children who finish
first will also receive ~ro-

viting them to continue on By EMILY HANSON
