THE WEATHER
Fair and colder is the predic

Recent Elixir Disaster Reveals

Declares

harmless, if used under the care
of a physician, but when the sol
vent was added it became poison
ous. The solvent is toxic and
should not be used in that drug."
That the southern people de
mand medicine in liquid form and
prefer It bad tasting, on the as
sumption that only bad tasting
medicine is any good, is the reason
that only in the south was the
medicine sold in the liquid and
harmful form, Burt explained. He
believes that the doctors w'ho pre
scribed the elixir should not be
blamed for they knew the value
of sulfanilamide in the tablet form
and did not know that the liquid
preparation was poisonous.
A. M. A. Blames Druggists.
"Following the deaths, the
American Medical association has
a tendency to place the blame
upon the druggists and thus es
cape all censure themselves. In
vestigators found that in only one
of the 70 or more cases involved
was the drug sold over the counter
without a doctor's approval, by a
person who was not a qualified
druggist.
In discussing proper legislation,
Burt pointed out that a federal
law would apply only to drugs
that were sent over state lines,
but added that most drugs manu
factured do cross state lines. To
fill the gap state laws would have
to be passed along the line of any
further federal legislation. The
professor told of the efforts that
have been made during the last
aix years to get a stricter law ap
plying to food and drugs, and of
the difficulties encountered. The
Copeland bill was introduced in
congress and came close to pass
ing, but interests, especially those
affected by the provisions apply
ing to cosmetics, saw that it did
not pass. That the bureau of chem
istry was given more power over
advertising than is now exercised,
he cited as another reason that the
till was strongly opposed.
Almost Yearly Disasters.
The bill which Is now before
congress calls for: License control ,
of new drugs; the power to pro
hibit drugs dangerous to health,
when administered in accordance
with the manufacturer's directions
for use; require drug label lot
bear appropriate directions for use
and warning against misuses; pro
hibit secret remedies by requiring
that labels disclose fully their com
position. It is hoped that a bill
containing these provisions would
prevent the recurrence of such
disasters as came in 1931 due to
Jamaica ginger or "Ginger Jake,"
in 1932 due to "radium water," in
1934 due to chinchophen which
destroys the liver and kills the
white blood corpuscles, and in 1937
due to elixir sulfanilamide.

Reggie Martin Interviews
State Sport Writers
At Broadcast.
A closing tribute to the Corn
husker seniors, who have played '
their last football game for the
University of Nebraska, was given
Saturday afternoon at 2 p. m. over
KFAB. Reggie Martin, serving as
master of ceremonies, interviewed
Cy Sherman John Bentley, Gregg
McBride, and Frederick Ware,
sports writers from Lincoln and
Omaha, and Link Lyman, who
represented the Husker coaching
staff in Major "Biff" Jones' absence.
The entire team was compli
mented on one of the finest sea
sons in Cornhusker history by all
the speakers and especially by
Frederick Ware, who said, "Ne
braska was one of the ten ranking
teams in the United States." Fred
Shirey's statement that "Pitts
burgh can be beaten by Nebraska
and that time is not far off," was
greeted by almost wild applause
by the audience gathered in the
Lincoln hotel ballroom. To close
the program Link Lyman paid
tribute to "Nebraska's greatest
line" which was composed of sen
iors with the exception of Charley
Brock at center.

Pessimistic Cage Coach Sees
No Chance of Annexing
Big Six Crown.
Coach Forrest C. "Phog" Allen,
basketball coach at Kansas, and
perennial pessimist of the Big Six
basketball coaches, admits that
his team will be a good one this
year, but not good enough to out
distance Nebraska for the cham
pionship.
"Kansas and Nebraska were co
champions last year, but the Corn
huskers lost only two regulars and
we lost four," Allen mourned.
"Without such stars as Ray Noble
Paul Rogers, Al Welhausen and
Roy Holliday , we won't stand
questionnaires i much chance to finish ahead of the
an students at i Cornhuskers this vear."
The team will be built around
Fred Pralle, named two years on
the all conference team and the
only regular returning. Other lct
termen returning are Lyman Cor

man and Fcnlon Durand.

The plan of choosing two varsity
