Drinking Health" a motion pic
ture was shown to the 5, 6, Z, and
9Th grades at South school.
The basic idea of this film in
health education was to motivate
desirable habits in respect to the
use of water, especially emphasizing
the danger of group use of a COM
mon drinking cup. The film also i'm
parted information with regard to
community services, transmission OF
diseases, laboratory techniques ano
analysis.
The addition of Good Health
habits were stressed throughout the
film.
Included in the group of diseases
which may be spread by common
glass, says the U. S. Public Health
Service are: tuberculosis, Pneumon-
ia, Diptheria, Influenza, Mumps,
.Whooping Cough, and the common
cold.
1t was pointed out how the schools
help to prevent the spread of diseas-
es by installing adequate facilities
for drinking water by use of drink
ing fountains.

Promoter Mike Signs Up Tony "Just In Case"

Summit, N. J., June 2l--(UP)-A lot of folks are not taking Tony Ga- lento's chances against Joe Louis too seriously, but Promoter Mike Jacobs is not taking the chance of a Galento victory taking the heavy weight title out of his grasp.
 Jacobs visited Tony's camp here yesterday, and brought along his Attorney Sol Strauss, who had Two Ton Tony put his name on con- tract for a return bout in case he beats Louis next Wednesday night.
 Since Tony deserted the Asbury Park seashore, and its temptations, for the mountain air of Summit, he appears to have improved tremend- ously. He boxed five rounds with three mates yesterday, and the large brigade of writers who watch ed the session agreed Tony's punch es were shorter and sharper than ever before.
 Louis Stale?
 Pompton Lakes, N. J., June 21-- (UP)-Joe Louis, preparing to de- fend his heavyweight crown against Tony Galento a week from tonight, took day off from sparring rou- tine today.
 The champion looked slow and stale as he boxed six rounds yes- terday, but one of Louis managers, Julian Black, explained that Joe was merely taking things easy. "Joe is in the best condition of his career, right now" Black said. Physically and mentally, I've never seen him in finer trim. He weighs 203 pounds, and he'll have three of those off before he goes into the ring. He'll take it easy from now on. No use risking hand injuries or face cuts, now that he's in shape. We will work on his timing during the few remaining spar sessions" The Louis camp is not in the least perturbed regarding reports that Artie Donovan, who is almost sure shot to referee the fight, will let Galento and Louis make a brawl out of it.
 ''That will be just fine" Black said, "the rougher the better"

Communication

Showing, I suppose, that the age of chivalry is not dead, or that conl- petition is the life of trade, softball or what have you, the following note from Dead End" Saunders relative to Brooklyn's top round man, Butch" Devito and Solomon O'Rafferty Friedman is on file: Dear John:-
 We call your attention at this time to the unfairness of Butch" DiiVto's Babes in the Woods, soft ball team who through their man. agement, Solly Friedman recently questioned the record of our Dead End Boys. It is not our purpose to point out all the errors in the phil osophy of MT. Friedman, but we do want 1t thoroughly understood that our club is endeavoring to meet his team, even on their own terms. However, MT. Friedman and MT. DiiVto have secuted us in recent contests and have learned further that our hurler, Dan "Scoopy" Ma Grew, is being sought for an exhibi- tion at the Worlds Fair on Labor Day. Our Brooklyn rivals took, ad- vantage of this incident by com- pleting their schedule for every re- maining date but Labor Day, and now inform us that the game must be played Sept. 5th, or else.
 Since we have already been the subject of MT. Friedman's attack it would be in order to toss few of the bricks right back at him. He claims to have club consisting of all 250 pounders. The lineup of this so called all star aggregation in- cludes Johnny "zeke" Barnes, Friedman himself, and Yanol Car- roll who would not reach this weight if they all stood on the scales at one time. Then we point out Mike Mor- rissey and Dan Mahaney who al- though come near to these require ments, are vertical heavyweights and not horizontal Like Butch" DiVito whose profile exceeds width in measurement. If the Fatties want a game with us they will have to adopt more sportsmanlike att titude.
