MONDAY, SEPT. 22. 1941. PLATTSMOTTTH SEMI - WZIXLY JOTJBJTAI PAGE TEHEE Medical Units Urced to Fill Defense Need Emergency Squad Setup by General Hospitals Called Vital Brit ish Warning Cited. By ROBERT WALLACE CHICAGO (UP) The nation's general hospitals have been asked to contribute to the defense effort by forming field casualty services in peaboard states and the industrial areas of the interior, it was revealed in a bulletin released by the Medi cal Division of the Office of Civilian Defense. Detailed plans contained in the bulletin c?ll for the erection of an Emergency Medical Service as a sec tion of the local defense organiz ations throughout the country, v ork ing in cooperation with welfare po lice, and other emergency services. The plcns have the approval of Fiorellio H. LaGuardia. director of civilian defense. British Warning Cited "To those v,ho do not as yet ap preciate the need to- action." La Guardia said. "I should like to quote from a similar bulletin issued in England in 193S, just prior to the beginning of hostilities, which, de scribes measures for safeguarding the civilian population: " 'The need for these measures is net related to any belief that war is imminent. It arises from the fact that the risk of attack from the air. however remote it may be. is a risk that cannot be ignored, and be cause preparations to minimize the consequences of attack from the air canr.ot be improvised on the spjr of the moment, but must be made, if they are to be effective, in time of peace.' " The local medical service, the bul letin said, is to be under a director responsible to the local head of civil ian defense. It will be the director's job to make inventory of the com munity's medical resources and facil ities and to prepare local planes, de velop an organization and provide for the training of personnel to carry out the functions of the ser vice. Size of Unit Varies The emergency field unit, the bul letin indicated, is to be composed of two or more squads v ith their in dividual commanders and a physi cian commanding the entire unit. The bed copr.city of the parent hos iital detjrnnnes the number of squads. Personnel of the squads, depend ing upon their size, consists of two or more physicians, two or more nurses, and two or more orderlies. All should be instructed in first aid, including care of burns, prevention of shock, control of hemorrhage, emergency treatment of fractures and wounds, and in the technique of de contamination. The function of the squad is to set up a casualty station at the site of a disaster where first aid treatment may be administered and the serious ly injured picked up by police or fire department rescue unit for tsans portPtien to a hospitrl. The bulletin recommended the es tablishment of the Emergency Med ical Service as soon as possible and ndvocated monthly drills to bring the field units to maximum efficiency. BETUSNS FROM OUTING From Saturday's Dal!y Miss Helen Warner, deputy clerk of the district court, was back at her post today after a very pleasant visit with relatives in Arkansas. She accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Alvadore Tilson, son, Donald and Mrs. L. F. Terryberry on the trip. The party had a pleasant time on the journey as they stopped for a short time at the great Bagnell dam in southern Missouri, as veil as trav eling through the Ozark country made famous by the "Shepherd of the Hills" by Harold Bell Wright, finding this a very attractive spot at this season of the year. The journey through Arkansas to Almyra. their destination, took them through a great deal of very inter esting country and a variety of scenery from the Ozarks to the low lands along the rivers. They were guests of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Warner at their large cot ton and rice plantation in Arkansas county, enjoying the sight of the cot ton field now filled with the ripened cotton. The picking season was at hand and they found hupdreds of the colored residents busy in the fields. On the way homeward the party stopped at VanBuren, Arkansas, where they visited the home of Bob Burns, noted radio star where there are many articles of the star on dis play at the home. ON WAY EAST From Saturday's Dairy Mr. and Mrs. Edgar S. Wescott of Lincoln, were in the city today for a short time while on their way to the east coast.

They will go later to the Maine big woods country for an outing and will be guests of Mr. and Mrs. Karl Koci: at their home at Presoue Ire. Mrs. Koch is a sister of Mrs. Wescott. Glenwood in 19 to 0 Victory Over Platters Heavy and Fast Bams Crush Down the less Experienced Bice Devils in Friday Game From Saturday's raHy The Glenwood Rams rolled into town yesterday afternoon and rolled over Plattsmouth's Blue Devils for three touchdowns, and 19 big points. Plaitsmouth on the other hand could not get the ball past the Rams' 35 yard line, and were on the defensive most of the time. Coach Morey Bak er's stalwarts from across the stream had just a little too much speed, ex perience, and brawny beef for the green Blue and White's. And still with all the advantages going to Glenwood the Platters could have made a much better name of it White combined to make three first downs, bringing the br.ll up to the Glenwood 42 After White made 7 to Glenwood's 35 and with second down and only 3 to go an apparent error in select ing plays by the Plattsmouth quarter lost the ball. With the Pattsmouth g-ound offensive going great guns the Blue Devils tried a pr.ss which was intercepted, and the hrlf ended ten minutes later with Glenwood in possession of a C to 0 lead. The second half was less than 5 minutes gone before Glenwood block ed and recovered a Blue Devil punt on Plattsmouth's 33. A beautiful double reverse pulled the entire Plat ter team out of position and enabled Jorgenson to scamper 33 yards and another score. The extra point was good and the Platter defense crum bled and their offense was stale mated. The same double reverse that scored set up and scored another touchdown for the Rams, early in the last period. The Rams had three Social From Thursday's Daily Mrs. Tunnell Here Mr. and Mrs. George Meisinger and Mrs. Dorothea Ryan have as their guest during the King Korn Karnival Mrs. Mabel Tunnell of Atchison, Kansas.

The first half was a slam-bang tussle ending 6 to 0 for Glenwood. Glenv.oocVs first score came after a 67-yard march put them on the Platter 3, first down and goal to go. The Platter line held three times before Moore's lob over the goal fooled the Blue and White com pletely for the first score. This was the fighting Platter eleven of the first half, that differed so much from the sluggish and demoralized Blue Devils of the second half that let the Rams run wild. Had the Platters retained their spirit the second half a different story might be told. Sulhoff, game captain for Glen wood. won the toss, chose to defend the west goal with a slight wind to his back and Plattsmouth re ceived. Sulhoff. who played a magni- j Scent g.ime at bis end position, kick fed off to Flattsmouth. The Elue j Devils made two first downs before ia bad pass from center forced Lar json to kick. j On their own 30-yard ine the Rams jWhite juncovered Jesse Jorgenson. a gigantic : fullback who ripped and tore at the j Platter line. Jorgenson was to Glen iv ood what Yelick was to Plattsmouth I when the two teams met last year. At one time during the 70-yard march down field Jorgenson was almost clear only to be brought down by reverse play. The man who received the second lateral would run the end, off-tackle, or pr.ss. It was the pass play from Curry to Jorgenson that scored the last touchdown. Captain Bill Gayer and Dick Novak, soph guard held up the Plat ter line throughout. McMaken, Lar son and White looked good in the backfield. Jorgensen carried the Rams on his able shoulders though he was ably abetted by Honig, Fiesle man and Curry.

LITTLE DAMAGE TO CEME TERIES OF A. E. F. NOTED JOHNSTOWN, Pa. (UP) Ceme teries in France containing graves of American soldiers who died in the first World war, suffered little dam age during last year's Gerr.-.an blitz krieg into France, it was declared here by a caretaker for the burial places. Willi im H. Dorsey, employed by the U. S. government, admitted be fore a meeting of "Forty-and-Eight-ers" that some damage had been done to the graveyards when the Nazis swept toward Paris, but sr id it was not what might have been expected. 'The damage in the cemeteries was nothing like that to the little towns through which the fighting raged," he said. "Many of them were turned into piles of stones and burn ed wood, completely destroyed." Nevertheless, Dorsey said an oc casional poorly-aimed aerisl bomb or artillery shell would drop into a cemetery and destroy some monu ments and uproot others. Etat he de clared that these were exceptions and that very few graves were destroy ed. Dorsey returned to the United States in July, after living in France since 1922. He was stationed at Montfaucon.
