ANTITRUST ACT AND NRA

After months of discussion, appar-
emily one vital element of the New
Deal remains undetermined. Was
the apparent suspension of the Sher
man Antitrust Act a good or bad
thing for the average citizen and the
average business man? The solu-
ton of this problem goes to the
heart of the National Recovery Act,
the NRA. There must be meet
ing of minds with regard to it
among those in authority sooner or
later. Today there are seemingly
as many opinions as there are minds.
The Sherman Act was enacted to.
prevent combinations from raising
prices, sitting competition, and elm
mating the little man in business.
The MIRA, through its code of fair
practices in the various lines of
trade and industry, was designed to
accomplish some of these ends, but
at the same time, under government
supervision, to permit others hereto
fore forbidden. Among the latter
are price fixing, limitation of produc-
ton to maintain markets, discontin-
uance of sweat shops and many 9TH
ers In other words, there was to
be regulation of heretofore reprehen-
sible practices rather than prohibit
ton of them.
The leaders in some industries and
businesses state they have been ma
terially benefited by the New Order.
These are mostly important lines of
industry-"bi business" if you
please. Others just as srrenuously
maintain that they have been injur-
ed by the change. They are, in the
main, small business men and indus
tries. But perhaps the greatest
number of complaints come from the
consumers, that large element of the
people who use instead of produce
commodities.

MEDICAL EXAMINATION OF
SCHOOL CHILDREN

Medical examination of children in
the schools in the counties was be-
gun by the Deputy State Health Of
ficer of each county with the APP
proyal of the Board of Education,
soon after schools opened for the
season. The plan of concentrating
on the younger especially
those in the first and third grades
which has been followed for several
years-will be continued throughout
the year for the majority of the
schools. In some of the smaller
schools all children will be examin-
ed. and in all of the schools children
who are in apparent need Of atten-
ton will be examined at the request
of the teacher.
Particular attention will be paid,
as usual, in the examinations, Dr.
R. H. Riley, Director of the State
Department of Health, said in an
nouncing the plans for the current
year. "to the general health of each
child and to conditions that are in
need of correction, especially to the
teeth, tonsils, weight as an index OF
favorable or unfavorable conditions,
the heart, lungs, vision, hearing, and
the condition of the skin.
1.-The object of the examination is
two-fold: First, to detect condi-
lions that might lead to illness later
on or to a physical handicap OF some
sort, if allowed to run on without
correction Second, to point out to
the parents what is needed and to
urge them to take the children to
the family doctor for the necessary
attention.
1.-The younger children are select
ed for these examinations in order
that unfavorable conditions may be
discovered while they are in the ear
iy stages, and when they can be cor
rected most readily. Examinations
or denominations of the Older
children are made as a means OF
following up previous examinations
or whenever requested by the teach
ers. Reports of conditions thai
need attention are sent to the homes
and parents are always welcome at
| the examination
"'The steadily increasing interest
and cooperation of the parents in fol
| lowing up the recommendation
made as result of these medical ex-
aminations, has been very crafty
1 ing in many of the counties. Much
of it is due, l am sure, to the infiu-
ence and interest of the Parent
Teacher Associations in all matters
concerning the health and well-beins
of the children in the schools. This
is particularly true in regard to the
efforts made to build up the genera
health of children who are under
weight, and to the greater readiness
with which other conditions in neeC
of care are being attended to.
Last year, 44,081 children thru
out the counties had the benefit Of
medical examinations during the
school year, In addition, 5000
children who reached school age
during the year, were given similar
examinations, in preparation fol
their admission to school, at the
child health conferences held thru
out the counties"

W. N. A. FOOTBALL SQUADS

For the past ten days West Not
tingham Academy has had squad
of twenty-six boys out on the grid
iron daily, going through the pre-
liminary training which always pre-
ceeds the actual forthcoming man
to-man contact.
Coach Gress Hanna, impresses one
as the Doleful Gil Dobie, the great
Cornell mentor-always pessimistic,
but nevertheless having the knack of
getting the best out of his boys so as
to always place 'hard-to-beat"
eleven on the field.
Hanna made his debut as coach ct
w. N. A. last season, and with little
or no ado produced team out of
practically raw material, whose goal
was never crossed This year the
squad is even greener and noticeably
lighter, but under the tuterage of
this strategist, 'big things" are
bound to come the Academy's way.
For one entire week the most
fundamental and practical football
tactics were taught and rehearsed by
the team. Conditioning also has
been given considerable attention
during this period-grass drills be-
ing stressed.
The last few days have seen two
random teams of the Maroon and
White pitted against one another,
and putting into effect their block
ing, passing, tackling, kicking, and
some defense work.
No definite positions have been as
signed to any boys as yet, but some
of the aspirants seem to be ready to
fall into certain berths. Bounds at
half-back and Cameron at right
guard, are the only regulars remain
ing for the opening whistle.
Red" Montgomery and Wesley
both newcomers to the Academy this
year, are expected to go places,
since both boys were selected re-
spectively as Eastern Ohio scholastic
left end and tackle, last season.
The pivot post is being fought out
between Saltman and Newton. At
the moment, SALESMAN appears to
nave the jump on Newton as a snap
per-back.
Smedley and Respess seem to be
pair of fine guards-both being
heavy and fast.
The tackle berths are being heav-
lily disputed by Messrs. Carroll,
Winter, Balderston and G.. Cameron.
Pennington and Rawlings, both
good tacklers and ball snatchers, are
neck and neck for the position on
the right wing. Montgomery more
than likely will hold down the left
flank in good shape, due to his past
experience.
The bachfeld is Coach Hanna's big
problem at present. With one or
two exceptions, there is very little
weight and a sad deficit of expert
ence The veteran, BOUNDS, togeth-
err with King, Moffitt, Keeney, and
Young seem to be rounding into
shape rapidly. There is also light
but fast poney backfeld on hand
which is composed of Byrd, Mason,
Rehm and Carhart.
