PHS Defeats s At Pawnee Citv IFridav More of the same Is the mod iclne prescribed for the Platts mouth High basketball team Fri day when It travels to Pawnee City. The "medicine" was the squad's first victory since Dec. 8, earned Tuesday night over Bishop Ryan of Omaha here, 68-40. "It's nice to win." Coach John Adkins said. His team had drop ped three before the holidays lifter opening with a win over ecumseh. Adkins thinks the victory will do aSot to increase enthusiasm and irAerest aniens squad mem bers. "EveryoneSjld a nice job," he said about T'twysdav's perfor mance in which tlfBlue Devils lead all the way aiiifwere able That Good Good has a New New LOOK to use 12 players. Jim Shown led the scoring for the second straight game, get ting 20 points, 11 in the first half when the Devils led 31-18. He got seven more, Al Dasher five and Roger Noell four in the third quarter as Plattsmouth raced ahead 53-28. Noell was second high scorer with 14 and Dasher got 11. The Blue Devils shot .419 on field goals, their best percent age by far this season. In the second half, they shot 15 for 31, .484. All wasn't complete sunshine, though. Adkins said he saw some defensive lapses which will have to be corrected before Friday night's meeting with young Paw nee City. Too, two reserves are nursing injuries. Oalen Pritchard suffer ed a sprained ankle in the re serve game Tuesday night. Dave Albert wrenched a knee In the pre-game warmup and aggravat ed it further in the varsity game. Adkins injected a note of cau tion when he said that, while it was nice to win. Bishop Ryan wasn't as strong a team as the three Plattsmouth lost to before the holidays. After Pawnee City, Nebraska City Is the next foe, here next Tuesday.

Lieutenant Colonel Joseph W. Hooch, an authority on commun icable disease, assigned to the .S. Army Surgeon General's ffice, said adenovirus vaccine is beincr sent, to all recerjtlon sta- t tion medical facilities. "Although this is not the long sought cold prevention vaccine," Colonel Cooch said, "tests have shown it to protect these men ; against adenovirus caused res ! piratory infections which account for 50 percent of Armywide re I cruit disease." Symptoms of res j piratory disease caused by ad I enovirus Include fever, cough i ing, nausea and aching muscles. In 1954, the adenovirus was first reported by Dr. Maurice Hillefnan, then a research virol ogist at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research in Wash ington, D. C. The first adveno virus vaccines later were devel oped at the institute. Since 1954, more than 16 dif ferent adenovirus strains have been isolated although only two of these, types four and seven, are of major importance among recruits. These types do not cause epidemics among either seasoned troops or among civil ians. In emphasizing that the adenovirus vaccine would not prevent the common cold, Cooch said that the immunization Is primarily intended to prevent adenovirus types four and seven. Distribution is being limited to new recruits because the ad enovirus seems to cause out breaks primarily among these men who come from' different locations and live together in barracks.

This is one of the opinions expressed in a recent teen-age survey made by Purdue Univer sity. The nationwide poll showed that one but of three high school sophomore, junior and senior boys owned his own car which would indicate that it's cars over dogs by a considerable majority. Girls, it seems, are less ad dicted. Only seven per cent of them are automobile owners. "Prestige" is the answer to why the teenagers are willing to spend hard-earned money for car repair bills and insurance, in addition to the original cost of the car. Most youthful owners take part-time jobs to support their four-wheeled amours. For them, alas, insurance protection costs about three times more than it costs adult drivers. Although there is some ques tion about the "one-out-of -three" ownership figures among licens ing officials .there is no doubt of the ever-increasing numbers of teen-agers taking to the roads, and of the potential threat to traffic safety many of them rep resent. To turn this teen-age in vasion into a safety asset rath er than a liability, high school driver-education courses are be ing improved and expanded in many areas. And progressive in surance companies are giving a welcome discount to graduates of accredited training programs. An example of school systems that are taking a realistic ap proach to mass instruction is Evanston, Illinois, Township high school, which has just ex panded its facilities to provide for 1,650 drivers a year. At Evanston, Illinois, Township high school, which has just ex panded its facilities to provide for 1,650 drivers a year. At Evanston, a 30-hour classroom course, emphasizing "rules of the road" - meaning of signs, signals, markings, traffic laws and penalities - is compulsory for all sophomores. Two additional phases - a four-week period of daily prac tice in "drivotrainer" units, and three and a half weeks of actual driving in dual-control cars - are optional. But almost all the students take them. The course is made particul ar practical through the cooper ation of the Evanston police de partment, which provides week ly accident reports so that local hazards can be emphasized by the instructor. Traffic and safety experts con sider the Evanston program a model that could profitably be copied by many communities. In the words of them, "It wouid be a dog-gone good thing if all teen-agers were trained before they were allowed behind the wheel." BOWLING Women's League 7 Up Rays Hurst Alex Nebr.

A. McLeod said Foreman lost control of his car, plunged across the highway, hit a utility pole, smashed through a sign and bounced off a speed ing train before his battered car finally stopped. The patrolmen rushed to the car and pulled open a door. Foreman was calmly peeling a tangarine. BOY SLIDES TO SAFETY Toledo Seeing an automo bile skidding toward him on icy pavement, Robert Butler, nine, flung himself down, grabbed the front bumper, and slid along 100 feet until the car stopped in a shallow ditch. He suffered only burlses. State Health Dept. Ready To Help You Are you acquainted with your State Health Department and its services to the public? Your tax es help suppjrf it; :t stands read y to help you. The State Department of Health is an official agency whose function is to serve the people of the state. By law it has the authority tc- ca-ry out cer tain specific pjblio health mea sures and it is e peeled to p:o vii'c certain cirect services. One of the i.uisi importait things in the world is health. Faulty habits of living anion;; pe'.pie 'of our country are impor tant fuctors wor m?, against the national health and efficiency. Health departments spend much time, energy, rr.d n.oney in he'p ing the public, learn how to se cure longer life and better heal th. Prevention of illnc.;s is the key note of mode a pui Jic health. Health Department activities are aimed toward the goal of op timum health for all members of the family, at home, at school, and at work. There has been a gradual shifting in emphasis from bac terial diseases such as scarlet fever, diphtheria, and typhoid fever, to the viral diseases which include infectious hepatit is, acute poliomyelitis, and many others. While there has been marked success in the control of some of the infectious diseases, still noth ing could be moie shortsighted than to assume that these are no longer a problem. THE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL Thursday, January 7, 19(50 Section B PAGE SEVEN Smallpox, dysentery, diphther ia, typhoid fever, and other ill nesses have not been completely eliminated, and the constant control measures now in effect must not be relaxed. A Health Department docs not engage in the practice of med icine. It does not compete with or take the place of the practic ing physician, but it Is a contact point between the people and the various health professions. Don't overlook the services of your State Health Department. "I'r: getting so fat that when I walk there's a preamble to my constitution."
