Bellevue Here Tuesday at 0 p.m. One of the most talked-about Class A basketball teams in the state, Bellevue High, makes an appearance here Tuesday night at 8 o'clock. Currently, Bellevue is ranked No. 5 in Class A by newspapers I of Omaha and Lincoln. And, Bellevue had the distinc tion of defeating both Fremont and Omaha Tech when the two teams were ranked at the top. The team also faces an im portant date this Friday when it meets Lincoln Northeast, pres ently rated No. 1. The game here Tuesday is re sumption of a longtime rivalry Bellevue has a big, capable aggregation, headed by 6-6 re bounder Woody D i s m u k e ; and playmaker-marksman Bob Whitehouse. ! Plattsmouth, having a season of frequent dismpoint- ment, would enjoy nothing bet I ter than making a good showing in its next-to-last game of the season. Coach Lowell Johnson said he plans to start Jack Scott and Denny Campbell at guard, Dan Schultz at center and Rog Bev j erase and Rog Lanum at for ward. i Scott led Plattsmouth Satur I day at Blair by scoring 19 , points, his best performance as a Blue Devil, but Plattsmouth ! bowed, 80-57.

Innovations this season are introduction by loudspeaker of the starting line ups and the pause for the anthem while every one faces the large flag displayed on the south wall of the Auditorium. Of COPTIIGMI OPS An outstanding example of the low cost of prescribed medicine is the prescrip tion used in combating pneumonia. In 1931 the cost of the disease usually exceeded $400 when all medical costs were considered. Today, with a prescription for an antibiotic costing about $17, the total cost of pneumonia, including the doctor's fee, could be under $50. Today colds rarely keep a person from work if treated at the onset. Modern medicine enables most arthritic patients to go about work with little discomfort. These are but a few examples of progress in the amazing advances in medicine. Thousands live today because of the greater knowledge medicine and phar macy have gained. Prescribed drugs are your best buy. In 1900 the average life expectancy was about 42 years. Today, life expectancy has increased to 67. Yes, 25 years of normal, productive life have been added to the life span of the average American. The Doctor and the Pharmacist and their colleagues in allied professions have contributed greatly to longer and healthier lives for us . . . through new drugs, new surgical techniques, new diagnostic tests and many other advances. For example, not so long ago a diabetic faced a two-to-one chance of an early death. Now, he can live a normal life expectancy on a drug whose daily cost is less than the price of a pack of cigarettes. Consider an epileptic who can now be a productive, self-supporting citizen because medical research has produced a drug costing only pennies a day. Research finds the many new drugs which have lengthened our life expectancy. Fred J. Feldhousen, Ph. G. R.P. and John DeMay, B.S.-R.P.

ADVICE Chicago "If you are past 40 and if your most strenuous ex ercise consists of walking from the parking lot to the office, think twice before you throw yourself into a vigorous session of the twist on Saturday night," the A. M. A. has advised. The medical group said the dance fad ranks with the hula hoop as a passible cause of dis located joints, slipped disks, muscle sprains and sacroiliac damage.
