Cavewomen top Provo Bulldogs By DEAN VON MEMMOTT Although the American Fork Cavewomen are out of the running for the Region Four championship, they still have a chance for a state playoff berth. They moved a step closer toward to-ward it last Thursday night with a 69-57 win at home against the Provo Bulldogs. The win kept American Fork in contention with Timpview for Region Re-gion Four's third playoff spot for state. The first quarter of last Thursday's Thurs-day's game was a show of great contrasts - the Cavewomen were hot while Provo was ice cold. That bad period hurt the Bulldogs for the rest of the game. Two Tiffany Day foul shots sent American Fork marching ahead 5-0. 5-0. A Marlise Mathews free throw put Provo on the board right afterwards, after-wards, but the Bulldog offense was sluggish throughout the quarter. The first quarter ended with a 21-5 lead for the Cavewomen. Contrary to what the score indicated, indi-cated, the Bulldogs were not yet washed up. They still had three quarters to redeem themselves. They began doing that in the second period. Dayna Gatenby launched a 9-2 scoring run for Provo with an inside shot. The Bulldocs managed to get within 23-14 before Jeanette Yazzie went on a shooting spree midway through the quarter. The spree opened with Yazzie's third trey. Freshman Julie Krommenhoek helped her by stealing the ball and passing it to her for a layup. The seven points Yazzie made SMI III DRUG CO. And Your Health 24 W. Main Am.

Nighttime bedwetting can result from many different causes. Heredity He-redity seems to be a big factor. It has been reported that in 44 percent per-cent of families with a child that wets the bed, one of the child's parents also was a bedwettcr. The incidence is higher if both parents were bedwetters. Organic causes of bedwetting include structural defects in the urinary tract at birth, a small bladder, blad-der, urinary tract infections, diabetes, diabe-tes, epilepsy, and neurological problems. Researchers recently found that the absence of the hormone vasopressin may be a factor in childhood bedwetting. Organic causes may require surgery sur-gery or other procedures. Nonorganic causes may be approached ap-proached with behavioral techniques. tech-niques. The child may be instructed in-structed to take charge of such things as making a trip to the bathroom bath-room before bedtime, washing soi led bedclothes, and charting the progress of the number of dry . its experienced. Moisture alarm systems are sometimes useful. Pre-stf'ption Pre-stf'ption medicines used to treat bedweuing include vasopressin, certain antidepressants, and occasionally, amphetamines. in the period gave American Fork a 30-18 lead. A Mathews charity toss and a Gatenby field goal clipped it down to 30-21 just before halftime. The third period saw Mathews and Ali Haws put the Bulldogs pull within six points. Krommenhoek's shooting kept them from getting closer. To stop Provo's rally, Cavewoman Coach Shaunna McAllister said, "We packed in our defense and stopped their interior passing." Yazzie's offensive efforts made her the top American Fork scorer. Krommenhoek and Hansen added 21 and 14 points respectively. Haws led Provo with 11 points while Mathews made 10. The Cavewomen will host the Pleasant Grove Vikings in a 7 p.m. game tonight.
