REINHART KEEPS
BUSY

George Washington University's
basketball team, flushed with two
successive victories to its credit,
has been hitting a stiff pace
through the holidays to prepare
for two of its most formidable op-
ponents, Minnesota and Ohio
State, who play the Colonials at
Tech High on Saturday, New
Year night, and Monday, Janu-
ary 3, respectively.
Coach Bill Reinhart has been
scrimmaging his squad almost
daily, since the Tennessee fracas,
with Georgetown and Heurich
Brewers. Since G. w. will tackle
these tough Big Ten fives with
only two games experience for a
comparatively green team, Rein
hart is taking advantage Of every
opportunity to drill his boys.
He plans to continue this schedr
.ule of work most of the week,
tapering off as time for the Min
neSota contest approaches.

since, they've had Christmas din

each, or so he said.
Today, in New York, "silk-stock-
ing" and "white-collar" will have
Christmas dinner together. They'll
dine well, too. You see; Jimmy Is
the top chef in a cheap restaurant
in Third Avenue, and his pal OF
war years is in charge of walters
without the title of head waiter.

BOXING

MILLIONS
BY PAT ROBINSON

WrifAF

NEW YORK, Dec. IS QN.S.).
Along Bash BouP today the boys
are calling Uncle Mike Jacobs a
million-dollar Santa Claus.
Unlike the man with the white
whiSkers who does his stuff only
once a year, Mike plays Santa for
the children of the ring the year
round.
Mike figures his Santa Claus ac-
tivities for the next year will run
into many millions If you consider
how much business he will throw
in the way Of hotels, railroads,
restaurants, fight managers, gym
nasiums, seconds, referees, judges,
etc.
ONE SLIGHT DIFFERENCE
There is one slight difference
between Mike and the man with
the reindeers-Mike also expects
to play Santa for his own benefit
while helping others-which is
fair enough at that.
AS Mike figures it, he will play
Santa for Joe Louis to the tune
of at, least $500,000 this year,
maybe more, if the LouiS-Schme.
ling gates goes over $1,500,000.
Tommy Farr, the battling Welsh
man, expects Mike to hand him
at least $250,00O for five fights.
starting with Jim Braddock and
Max Baer and winding up with
the champion in September.
Barney Ross, the welterweight
boss, confidently expects Santa
Claus Jacobs to drop at least $50,-
600 in his pocket and it is certain
that Freddy Steele, the middle
weight king, can make twice that
much if he wants to accept q
couple of Mikes offers.
EXPECT LARGE BEHESTS
Lou Ambers, the head man
among the lightweights, and
Henry Armstrong, the terrible ty-
phoon of the feathers, each ex-
pect large behests from Uncle
Mike. Ambers probably will tap
Mike for about $3.50, 900 for meeting
Armstrong. AS for the little col
ored terror, Mikes gifts to him
will be numbered only by the
number of willing victims who
can be found to meet him.
Mike expects to help every good
face litter in more or less generous
fashion. He hopes his fight gates
this coming year will total $S,000,-
900 and about two-thirdS Of that
will go to the fighters. A promise
like that is enough to make all
the fighters in the land sufficient
ly happy for Christmas.

Just as prevention, in the form of immunization or vaccination, is the best way to avoid diphtheria or smallpox, so is prevention the best approach for avoiding dental decay, but unfortunately no exact treat ment for avoiding dental carries is yet available, so reliance must be placed in other methods of pre- vention, Dr. F. M. Erlenbach, chief of the division of mouth hygiene of the state department of health, said in the departments weekly broad cast today. These methods are prenatal care, regular dental atte1- tion and proper diet.
 Prevention of dental carries is best carried on in the form of proper prenatal preparation, for, if the mother properly prepares herself, the baby produced is likely to be a more perfect specimen in all respects including teeth. Supervision during pregnancy assures better health both for mothers and their babies, and, faithfully carried out, it means prevention of developmental defects and dental carries, Dr. Erlenbach declared.

American Newspaper Publishers On Record
UnaIterabIy Opposed to Closed Guild Shop, or Any
 Other Closed ShOp-WiII Sign No Agreement That Has Any Such Demands

Chicago, June 30-(UPJ-Ameri- can newspaper publishers are on record today as unalterably opposed sto the closed guild shop or any other form of closed shop for those who prepare and edit news and pie lures for newspapers" A resolution to that effect was adopted unani- It1ously late yesterday at conven- ton of newspaper publishers from all parts of the United States. The publishers declared their determin- ation not to enter into any agree ment with editorial employees upon [ closed shop basis.
 NO newspaper can command con- hdence in the fairness of its news presentation if it selects all its em- ployes from only one political party, one religious denomination 6r,any one group devoted to single cause" the resolution said.
 /, United Against Closed Shop
 After referring to the attitude as- stunned by the American Newspaper Guild at it's St. Louis convention on issues such as the war in Spain, and the court bill, the resolution said that the publishers united in "'unswerving objection to the closed shop for news and editorial depart nent workers-not because we re- gard it as a labor issue involving questions of wages, hours and work ing conditions, but because we are unwilling to turn over the news columns to any group already con1- Initted as an organization on highly controversial public questions.
 The convention, which was called after the St. Louis guild conven- Eion adopted 8 bargaining code which included mandatory rules calling for a closed or guild shop in all contracts with newspapers, was presided over by James G. Stahlman, president of the Ameri- can Newspaper Publishers associa- ton.
 It was announced that there were 665 delegates present, representing eleven newspaper organizations. A permanent committee was organized at the convention, to be known as the newspaper committee. The first duty of this committee is to trans init the action of the convention to the newspapers of the country and take steps to keep the public in- formed of the importance of the issue involved"
 This permanent committee is made up of James G. Stahlman, chairman; L. B. Palmer, secretary; and the presidents, vice presidents and secretaries of the eleven news paper associations represented at tho meeting.
 Resolution Adopted
 Text of the resolution follows:
 "The newspaper editors and pulp fishers from all sections of the United States individually and through their cooperative associa- items listed below are gathered here to take action upon the Amer ican Newspaper guilds recent decla- ration for the closed shop in edi- tolial and news departments. We recognize the fact that when a problem of major importance to the public is presented to us, thep ublic is entitled to a statement.

Early correction. through frequent visits to the den- tist, of dental defects will entirely eliminate the discontinue of to0th- ache and resultant irritability and will avoid infection of such other parts of the body as the heart and kidneys by the transfer to them through the blood stream of bac- teria harbored by the teeth.
 Proper diet is of great importance during the prenatal period, infancy and early childhood whe nthe teeth and jaws of the child are in the formative stage, since 1t aids normal development and thereby becomes an aid in prevention of tooth decay

This, the doctor said, seems to be inevitable. no matter how much emphasis is placed on diet and prenatal care, and the only known way to avoid spread of decay is to have the teeth examined as soon after eruption as possible and have these small defects, known as pits and Assures corrected.
