Inscoe Gets Victory Despite
Constant Bobbling
Afield by Mates

Henderson high school rang down
the curtain on a successful baseball
season yesterday afternoon at League
Park, whipping the strong Middle
burg high school team 10 to with
Claiborne Inscoe pitching the victory.
Henderson errors flew thick and
fast during the contest, the locals
miscuing eight times to keep pitcher
Inscoe in trouble much of the time.
Middleburg got off to an early lead
scoring five runs in the second inning
that seemed to assure them of victory.
Henderson numbered their heavy
artillery in the third and fourth in
nings, scoring five runs in the two
frames 10 add to their two in the first
inning to pull ahead of the visitors,
and were never headed again.
Turner and Coghill showed the way
for Henderson batters, each getting
three hits. Edwards got two hits, so
did Inscoe, to aid in the scoring.
Henderson lost two games to Roa-
nokc Rapids, one to Middleburg and
Roxboro, and won the remainder of
their games to bring a fine season to
q close. The boys had to overcome
many obstacles to have team, but
they displayed fine fighting spirit
that carried them to their victories.
Graduation will take seven of the
first nine players this spring.

Typhoid fever, which is more pre-
valent in summer than in winter, can
be ruled out altogether by vaccina-
ton. The spring or early summer is
the best time to take this imnuniz-
ing treatment that one may have this
safety not only during the remainder
of the summer but for several years
to come.
Malaria is another summer disease
but one more difficult to handle than
typhoid. The carrier Of the infection,
the Anopheles mosquito, is a peren-
NAL problem, and yet no vaccine has
been discovered to set up immunity
against the disease. Screening, drain
ing, oiling and filling in swampy
places are advocated as control mea-
sures against the mosquito, and treat
ment of the disease under the direc-
ton of a physician is persistently

Experts Say Health Better
During The Summer Season

If for no other reason, summer will
be most welcomed this year for the
better chances it will bring for escap-
ing illness and living more healthful
and happy lives. Last winter was
hard on health. According to the vital
statistics reports issued each month
by the State Board of Health, deaths
from diseases that are more prevail
emit in winter or are aggravated by
cold weather conditions have been
many more this year than last. Els
pecially has this been true in the
case of influenza, pneumonia, and
tuberculosis. The report for April just
issued shows SO more deaths from in
fluenza, SO from pneumonia and 26
from tuberculosis than for the same
month last year.
Generally speaking, summer is
more healtR1ful than winter, and it
can be made entirely so, by taking
certain precautions against the usual
summer diseases. Unlike most win
ter diseases, which are largely af-
fected by the severity Of the weather,
and about which there seems to be
little one can do for his protection
against them, diseases of hot weather
can be guarded against and summer
made healthful, happy season for
all.
Babies and young children as a rule
find summer less safe from a health
point of view than older people. But
with a little foresight, energy and
more applied health information, sum-
mer can be made as safe for babies
as for older groups. Flies and mos
quitoes can he kept under control, or
at least kept from the baby, and the

NEW TEST PLAN
 ON METERS SET
Can Method to Be Eliniin- ated - State Depart.
 frlent CoOperates

William Dunlavey, sealer of weights and measures, announced today arrangements have been made with Inspector Klocker of the state department in connection with Q new setup for testing fuel and oil meters on both trucks and bulk plants in the citv. The new method of inspection will be put into effect during the first two weeks in Feb- ruary and the local department has made arrangements with the Vest on Equipment company.
 This new method will do away with the previous one of inspecting by cans, a method which has not only been too slow but which has also been none too dependable as regards to the accuracy. The local department has been trying for some time to secure the services of the state department and now that such q situation has been realized, expect to be able to test all fuel, oil meters and tanks during the two week period in February.
 In this city and in all others of the state, the departments of weights and measures have been attempting to see that all delivery trucks be equipped with meters. They seek to eliminate the can method altogether and hope to have legislation passed at the next ses- sion of the general assembly to make 1t necessary for every truck to be equipped with 0 meter.
