LAND COMPANY, Box 5, Roch
elle P«rk, N. J.
)
Ag the season for the opening
of the 32nd Christmas Seal drive
nears we are reminded that the
need for funds to carry on the
humane work of eradicating tu
bercolsis is even greater this
year for the death ate, statis
tics show, will be higher than last
year.
The Nebraska Tuberculosis As
sociation has been in existence
for over a century. During that
period of time its activities have
expanded until today the pro
gram includes adfminist|ratioin of
a summer camp for needy child- j
ren. nursing service, nutrition
work, cl'nics and an extensive
health project.
If this deadly enemy, tuber
culosis, is to be vanquished^ the
program of prevention cannot be
allowed to lag. Health education
must be continued so that Ne
braskans will know how to guard
themselves against this disclase.
Sixty perc.'nt of all tuberculosis
deaths occur between the ages*
of 15 and 45, the productive age.
The loss alone from tuberculosis
in one year, therefore is appro
ximately $840,000 a sheer econo
mic waste.
Miss Alice Marshall, executive
secretary of the Nebraska Tuber
culosis Association says the need
for a vigorous campaign against
this disease is increasingly necoss
ary in view of the fact that it is
still the foremost cause of death
during the years of youth.
The foe is being routed, but
it is the ouVtanding chronic dis
ease of the industrial worker and
occupies first place as the cause
of death. It is basically a problem
of the working man and woman.
Seventy thousand persons died
from this malady in 1937, or one
individual every eight minutes.
Theso figures are appalling but
true. It ia now time to revisualize
our efforts and for all to unite in
renewed determination to conquer
this common cnemy^ tuberculosis.

TANK ARMSTRONG RETAINS
HIS TITLE
(Continued from page 6)
margin with a two fisted attack
that had the blood flowing at a
rapid rate from the eyes both left
and right of Garcia. The 7th round
had Ceferino on the verge of a
knockout but only an ability to
I e nsumate strong punishment sav
| ed the game Filipino. The 8 round
found Armstrong trying to finish
hi i man but the iron Province boy
gallantly hung on. So disgusted
was he at his miserable showing
ho hit Armstrong after the bell.
The !>tih round found him bleeding
and his face cut to ribbons but
toward the end of the round he
threw bis famed Bolo punch which
missed Henry by a foot landing
in the vicinity of 8th Ave. The 10th
round found Garcia punch drunk
from the absorbing the fistic wares
of tho double Champion that ho
walked to the wrong corner after I
tho bell. Again in the 11th round
Garcia did not know where his
corner was located and was so di
rected by traffic officer Henry
Armstrong with his well directed
left gloved hand. Garcia started a
light rally in this 12fch round but
Hank quickly broke it up landing
lefts and rights of more than the
cream puff variety. The Filipino
missed three Bolo punches in rapid
succession. Hank began fighting
wiith head and shoulders close to
the chest of Ceferino. The 14th
round found our Henry resorting to
bho ring generalship that goes to
make truly great Champions
RESTING from the early lead pil
ed up in tho win column. This he
did by continuing to rest his head
on tho yellow boys chest; Ceferino
.cut loose with the FIRST effect
ively landed Bolo punch which
had Henry in slight distress mo
mentarily quickly snapping out
of what appeared to be a bad
situation, Hank Armstrong very
cleverly evaded the rest of the box
ing samples the Filipino had to
offer. The 15th and final round
had its anxious moments for Gar
cia came to life with three Bolo
punches and a variety of other
stuff well hidden in the bottom of
the potato sack. Henry denied af
ter absorbing a few of them and
put in some rights nn<l lefts of
his special brand. They both were
fighting furiously till the gong
sounded. Then Harry Balough af
ter collection the endorsed cupon
oi' the commission signed judges;
announced in his beat voice of ten
01; THE WINNER AND STILL
CHAMi ION, ARMSTRONG. Wha.
a boy. WHAT A FIGHT.
Alter wcg ing at the commis
sion office the weight was Hank
134 and one hall, Garcia 146 on
the dot. Despite this handicap our
Henry came on to win like a real
Droadway 9 to 5 shot. Freely pre
dicted in these columns of last
week the fight was as ye old fight
hound of Sport forecasted to the
minute.
Uncle Sam gave the Island to
the Filipino’s a few years ago but
Henry recaptured them tonight,
showing he has a little Indlm
blood mixed in his American Ne
gro veins. Harlem was out in full
regalia rooting for one of its
greatest sons’. All had staked their
Xmas bankroll and some had post
poned their Thanksgiving dinner
to bet on Ft tie Hank. So there were
p world of joy with a double count
down. The Filipinos were there
in- numbers, from the provinces of'
Rizal, Tllioli, Pampangu and P.a, :
tangas; others represented the
Souther nislands of Luzon. They
were conspicuously bedecked in
their finest colors of gay raimnentj
not forgetting the ornamental flo- j
wer that adornes the coat lapel;
buttonhole. They brought their |
pesos, pestatas. dies centaovsos & |
clackers with them and bet on the \
aimrgo of the Filipino’s like true
patriots. They did get f°r their
judgement a truly hard fought bat
tle won by the best man.
t hampions ana ex-cnumpnm»
were introduced and a promising
recommended by Mike Jacok’s
Chalky Wright a stable-bate of
Henry Armstrong won a just deci-j
sion in a sensational bout with |
Vince Dell Orto of Italy; whnoh j
goes to show the N. Y. Boxing
Cornish does not reconize the con
quest of Ethiopa. Armtsrong and
Garcia entered the ring about the
samo time. Hank wearing a blue
flannel bath robe. Bespeckeled Fat
Eddie Meade was in Garcia’s cor
ner with the latest in gray and blue
sports jacket. Harry, Henry’s bro
ther who always seconds him
brought in the last word of a brown
eordory sport blouse and green
pants. The house was a sellout
except for a few choice reserved
seats in the 1fi.50 booths but Wal
ter St. Dennis quietly explained
that due to extreme cold lots of
train and plane reservations were
cancelled. And you can bet Sir
Walter speaks of only what he

show and what a Champ. I will

CHEST DRIVE
Words are inadequate to expreM
the deep appreciation for the loy
alty and hai-d work which put di
vision ‘C’ over the top in the Com
munity Chest Drive. The Commu
nity should be proud o f its team
of workers as I am. These worn**
went out into the homes, most of
them for the first time, walking
knocking at each door often re
turning discouraged, but each day
determined to to renew the fight
in order that the less fortunate
might next continue to get the help
that they have been receiving. The
drive w as officially to end Thurs
day November 29th. Our team was
glad. They vowed to the take the
last few days and put our division
over.. Thus at the luncheon meet
ing Tuesday Nov. 29 at the Fon
tenelle Hotel, they saw the re
sults of their last great effort. Our
division did more than reach their
goal, they went far over the top.
1 want to more than thank Mrs.
Bert Johnson and Mrs. Annie
Burton, majors: Madams: Melba
Stuart, Frank Blackwell, J. D.
Crawford, Lovejoy Crawford, Lu
cille Gustin and her splendid co
workers, Lucille McAlister, Tom
my Wilson, Glady Harrison, and
Walter Pearl and her co-workers,
Misses .Roberta Bell and Mabel
King. Mrs. Tommy Wilson, who
is a newcomer to our city saved the
day more than once of bringing
up the sum in the daily reports.
Mrs. Harrison, who has nine child
ren to care for, not only success
fully worked Iher tenritory, but
gave her time on other territory in
order to help us go over. Miss Ro
berta Bell, our “Y” secretary not
only obtained workers but gave
me spiritual strength when things
seemed not going the way they
should. The battle is won, due to
the cooperation of my major, cap
tains, and lieutenants.
A tiny pair of red woolen gloves
tied with red ribbon was presen
ted to the two teams that went
over the top. Our d i vision C
received the first pair. All workers
were members and voluntary work
ers and Committee members of
t»he YWCA.
Mrs. Melvonia Squires was the
U rban League worker.
Thank you.
Mrs. S. C. Hanger,
Chairman.
