 Club members have voted unani- mouslv to take up the gauntlet. Pros and cons and why's and where tores of civic clubs will be thrashed out publicly on April 25, at q meet ing of the club. The question: Re solved that kiwanis is benefit to lis members and 10 the city of New Britain" will be debated by two picked debating teams. On the af- iirmative side will be Attorney Ed ward X.

New Orleans, Mar. 20. - l. Is i terrific handicap to lose your sight when you are 15 years old. And yet
 One Of the greatest heart spe- clalists in the world is pr. Rob-lt H. Babcock of Chicago, who lost his sight at that age but went on to win worldwide fame as q scientist.

 Builds Up Morale
 And human courage counts, too Too many, I think, make the mis- take of treating their patients bodies. try to treat their souls first. try to establish or build up the courage and morale that are one of humanity's greatest assets in fighting this disease.
 T am a southerner So I feel privileged to speak as one of the family when l say that we white folks in the south have no small re- sponsibility for the tremendous sweep of tuberculosis through out negro population. Every city in the south should abolish its negro slums: should clean up those un- speakable shacks in back alleys
