School Patrol, Buses
Make Safety Record.

MinneSota's 10000 children who ride
to school in buses have just completed
another death-free year, according to
preliminary information released this
week by w F. Rosenwald traffic and
safety engineer of the Minnesota High
way department. With each bus max
ing about 100 round trips during the
school year, the $500 vehicles made a
grand total of 100000 trips transport
ing students without a single pas
senger being involved in a fatal &C
cident.
Another conmendable phase of the
school traffic safety program was the
completion OF another year without a
single fatality resulting to students at
crossings protected by school patrols
This marked the ninth consecutive
death-free year for this statewide
student organizatiOn-an outstanding
record not only for the state but for
the entire nation
During the same period of the nine
months school year, however, Mr.
RosenwaId reports SO persons under
20 years of age were killed in auto
mobile accidents.

EveIeth Hurler Allows 5 Hits
as Ely Turns Back Mesabi
Foe, z to 3.

Pitching five-hit ball, Dick Johnson
won his fourth game for the Ely city
team by downing Taconite on the
Iatter's diamond, Sunday, 7 to 3. The
EveIeth hurler hasn't been defeated
since Calumet turned the trick, 6 to 5,
early in the season.
Sunday, Ely will travel to Keewatin
to renew hostiIities with the Mesabi
range club. In the last game played on
the local diamond, Manager w. ".
Langen's crew whipped Keewatin, to
3. The following week Nashwauk will
travel here.
Aside from the sixth inning when
Taconite scored all its runs, there
wasn't a man got farther than second
base. Three Of Taconite's five hits, one
of them a three-bagger that brought
in a run, were scored in this inning.
At the time Ely was in the van, 60,
so Taconite's runs at the moment
meant only that the host team was
threatening.
The VermiliOn range club collected
a total Of II hits off the combined de-
Iiveries of three pitchers. Ten Of them
were singles, but one was a double
which maintained Ely's record of col
Letting at least one two-bagger in every
one Of the ten games played so far.
Eddie Grahek, a newcomer who played
shortstop, saved the day by getting a
two-baSe hit to inaugurate the fourth
frame.
Scoring twice in the third, Ely put
the game on ice with four runs in the
fourth, and added one more in the
ninth. Tony Stukel performed the I'M
usual feat Of stealing home to score
Ely's second run. All told the club
collected four stolen bases to increase
its total for the season to 49,
Johnson had nine strikeouts and
walked one, while the Taconite pitchers

Avoid "AthLetes Foot"
Advised by Doctors

If you want to avoid athletes foot, +"
a common and irritating form of ring
worn, be careful where you walk with
bare feet. This advice is given in a
bulletin sent out this week by the
Minnesota Public Health association.
Swimming pools. diving boards, and
shower baths are ideal spots for spread
ing of this condition, which is easy
to acquire and difficult to Danish, the
bulletin point sout.
A patch of soft white skin between
the third and fourth toes, accompanied
by considerable itching, is often the
first symptom. Among the methods Of
treatment advised are a solution of
iodine, not too strong, Whitfield's ONT
ment, or mixture of benzoic acid,
salicylic acid and vaseline To check
the spread of athletes foot" bathroom
floors and other surfaces should be
kept scrupulously clean, and there
should be no touching of the bare feet
to carpets or mats. Shoes should be
disinfected and for this, formaIdehyde
is satisfactory. Fresh socks should be
worn daily.
For prevention, showers and SWIM
ming pools provide containers of cIlor-
mated water for foot dips before and
after bathing. In addition, swimmers
are advised to wear sandals or paper
slippers for protection.

AUTO DEATHS
SHOW INCREASE
20 More Fatalities for First
Six Months of Year Than
Same Period in 1899.

Minnesota enters the second half of
1910 faced with the problem of better
ing last years excellent, prize winning
traffic safety record if the state is to
keep her place in the safety sun.
Twenty more traffic fatalities have
been recorded in the first half of the
year than in the same period of 1889
In explaining this condition, state
highway department safety engineers
produced some significant figures. A
total of 216 Minnesota men, women and
children were killed in the first six
months Of this year. During the same
period of 1889 there were 1876 fatalities
20 under this years toll.
Analysis of these figures shows that
"the man on the street.-The pedes-
trian-is responsible for much of the
unwarranted increase in deaths, as
Is more pedestrians have been killed up
to July this year than were killed in
the first six months of 1885, A total
of IS fatalities in the pedestrian class
39% of the total deaths-have been
charged against the states safety
record so far, compared with only go
during the corresponding period last
year.
The number of fatal non-pedestrian
motor vehicle accidents has actually
decreased this year, and Il of the 131
deaths in this group were caused in
one accident catastrophe such as is
unlikely to happen again for many
years to come
