SATURDAY, MARCH 8, 1914
Dr.: Gregg Outlines Duties
of County Sanitary Officer

Dr.. A. d. Gregg, Vance county
health officer, today issued the fol-
| lowing statement in connection with
employment, recently announced, of
w. II. Brooks as county sanitarian.
Vance County Health Department
has employed a sanitarian-W. II.
Brooks of Roxboro. Nh. Brooks comes
to us well recommended and en-
dorsed by the State Board OF Health.
He is a graduate of Elon College
and completed the sanitarian'S train
ing course in the School of Public
Health at Chapel Hill. Mr.. Atkln-
son. division sanitarian from the
State Board of Health, Will be here
next week, March 10 to ii to WORK
with Mr.. Brooks in getting the work
under way in city and county.
During this week, Mr.. Brooks is
getting acquainted with the geo.
graphy of the city and county and
with the routine of the office.
The health officer wishes to re-
mind that part of the public, as
cafes, meat markets and similar
places that come under his super
vision, that Mr.. Brooks is here to
help you conduct d better, more at
tractivc and sanitary place. He is
here to instruct and advise you
about sanitation and the care of
public health, not just to force OF
compel you to obey a set of arbitrary
laws. While there are certain laws
and regulations that must be adj
hor1l 10 Chow ~, al ,>,-,-.I1.
and just to all alike. The regula-
tons and laws governing all public
food dispensing and eating places
have been found from long expert
cnce to be needed to protect the
food and the public who depend on
you for the cleanliness and purity
of what they buy and eat. Do not
look upon the inspector as a boss
or law enforcer, but as a teacher
who wants to help you solve any
sanitary problem. and the things that
he shall recommend, or ask you to
do. viii be for your benefit and
help your place Of business in the
eyes of the public.
The health department frequently
gets calls for help along lines tha'
are purely a nuisance, not a ques-
ton Of bad sanitation. For instance
someone will call and say that there
is a dead dog or cat in a certain
street or road and for Us to have ii
moved. l have looked through our
State sanitary laws and do not find
that dead animals or the removal
Of the same comes under any health
law. Bad odors are a nuisance but
not a menace to health. Dirty dish
water in your neighbours back yard
or a mud hole in the street are not
a problem Of the health department
We admit these things should be
corrected and We try to help all
complalners get their complaints
remedied, yet this is using the time
of a sanitarian and health depart
ment to correct nuisances that arc
individual problems or under the
jurisdiction of the law enforcement

Penn Stote's Passing Come Effective
As Rhode Islond's Free Shooting Style

ONEw YORK. Feb. 4.-Bas-
ketball seems to be headed In
two widely divergent directions.
One Is the free-scoring, fire
horse school as demonstrated by
Frank Keaney's Rhode Island
State aggregation; the other, the
slow, deliberate offensive devel-
oped by John Lawther at Penn
State.
{ Neither type Of play is new.
except in the lengths to which Il
has been carried.
New York coaches and critics
remain skeptical, despite Penn
States upset victory over New
York University and Rhode
Islands defeat Of st. Francis.
Rhode Island, the two-point-
a-minute team which has domi-
mated New England for five
years, breaks faster and shoots
moro than any team seen In
these parts in years.
Big, genial Frank Keaney has
two pet theories around which
his system revolves:
!. The more one shoots, the
more points he'll make, since the
percentage Of successful shots
made will remain approximate
ly the same.
2. A long pass is superior to
q lot Of short ones because, with
the latter, one error curtails the
play. With the former, with
$3.50 chance of succeeding, 4
completed play is enough to de-
moralize an opponent.
In practice, Keaney puts his
260-pound son. Warner, under
the basket to get the ball after,
a score or missed shot. Warner
Keaney, q baseball pitcher Of
some ability, rifles the ball the
length Of the court to Stutz
and the Rams have a good
chance to score.
LIONS MAKE Is PER CENT
OF SHOTS AGAINST N.Y.U.
At the opposite side of the pic
ture y Lawther. During his
highly successful regime at little
Westminster, the scholarly Penn
State coach was one of the orig.
inators Of the sliding zone de-
tense, In which the defensive
change as the offensive threat
shifts.
Westminster. q great basket
ball school, combined a high
scoring offense with the sliding
zone. But when Lawther arrived
at State College. where the sport
had just been breaking even, he
found no phenomenal scorers.
