CARDINALS FEAR
B|LL|KEN PASSES
Five Sharpshooters, Two
of EN- Triple Threats,
on st. Louis Team.

Catholic University's gridmen, anx-
ious to record their third victory Of
the season Saturday and likewise
avenge last years defeat at the hands
of St. Louis University, concentrated
on pass defense today as some tall
tales were told them about the Billi-
kens' aerial attack.
According to dispatches from the
Midwest, st. Louis U. has five sharp
shooting passers. Each one is said to
throw with speed and accuracy.
Best Of the visitors passers appears
to be Capt. Denny Cochrane, halfback,
and one Of the teams six 2-lettermen
Cochrane is triple threat, as is Mel
McConnigle, Cochran's running mate.
The other passers are Cletus Roemer,
Mel Ausikier and Bill Foehr.
At present the Billikens are car
rying 500 percentage for five games.
But after losing their first two games,
0-6 to Bradley Tech and 0-28 to Tul-
sa. the St. Louisans apparently have
hit their stride. They trimmed Mis-
souri, Miners, 1870, and swamped
Grinnel, $50. They held Wichita U.
to scoreless tie.
Last year st. Louis tripped c. o.,
7-2, at st. Louis, with a devastating
pass attack in the second half.

Health Linked TO Cleanliness

All of us have heard the ex-
preston: Cleanliness is next to
Goodness" though to observe
some of our school children eating
their lunches, one might have rea-
son to believe that both mothers
and school boards have forgotten
this old copy-book maxim! But it
bears remembering, every day
and all day. For the writer who
said that soap and civilization 60
hand in hand was not far from
the truth. Certainly, soap-and-wa-
ter cleanliness and good health
are inseparably linked, and habits
of personal cleanliness are a vital
factor in safeguarding children
against infections and disease.
We often compare a correct diet
to the bricks with which a we'll
constructed building is erected.
But IL food represents the bricks
with which the edifice Of health is
built, surely cleanliness is the
mortar!

Keeping INCREASINGLY at II

Most babies are kept clean by
their mothers because mothers
know that they cannot keep their
babies well if they do not keep
them clean. If the same careful
policy were followed in later child
hood, it is almost certain that
there would be less illness among
children.
Unfortunately, many mothers
relax their vigilance the moment
their child is ready for school. In
some cases, they believe that the
child has had sufficient training
and can be relied upon; in other
instances, they believe, or hope,
that further training will be sup
piled by the school!

What About the School 2

Mothers must remember-and
must emphasize to their children
that diseases may often be
traced to unclean hands. and to
germs sprayed in the air by per-
sons having coughs and colds.
Teach your children to muffle
every cough and sneeze in a hand
kerchief. And be sure they have .
handkerchief handy for the pur-
pose. Teach them to keep their
fingers out of their mouths, like
wise pencils and other objects.
Teach them to wash the hands and
face frequently.
If they are to carry out this last
instruction, it is imperative that
soap and towels be available in
school washrooms, as well as at
home. Investigate conditions at
the school your child attends. II
facilities are not adequate, do
something about it. Either arouse
other mothers to help rectify the
omissions, or failing that-have
your child carry soap and paper
towels from home!
BY teaching cleanliness to your
children, by making it a regular
part of their training, you will
help to safeguard their health and
the health of every other child
with whom they come in contact
i'm their daily lives.
