We work, and work, and work yet nothing seemed to be ac- comphshed. Then one day we stopped to look around and found the heating plant complet ed and functioning nicely, steam in the barracks (no more coal smoke and freezing), the mess hall concletcd (ao rore stand ing in line and waiting for sec ond and third calls), and the walk-ways nearly finished. We were surprized at all we had done. We think that most of us will be really sorry that the work is done, for there won't be much to do after it is completed.

 The once-in-a-lifetime oppor- tunity came last Saturday night when we all (moSt of us, any Way) got passes extended to am. so that we could go to the Jam boree.

for our armed forces.
 l. has been aptly said that health is the backbone of pro- duction and production is the keystone of defense Therefore, the health conservation of work CTS, which is the basic objective of industrial hygiene is of utmost importance to the success of the defense program.
 Physical Examinations consti- ute one of the most important features of an industrial health program. Applicants for jobs should be given complete exam nations prior to employment. These should be not for the pur- pose of excluding them from work. but as guide to their in tel igent placement in the type of work for which they are best fitted physically, and in order to prevent those who are suffering from communicable diseases, such as active tuberculosis or syphilis in contagious state, from infecting fellow workers. All employees should be given periodic examinations at ire ouent intervals in order to de- tect physical defects and disease in their early stages, when pro- per treatment will prevent much needless suffering and loss of time and money later on. With the induction into military ser vice of many of the a0le-bodied men now employed in industry and their replacement by older men, and by those who are less qaulifed physically for strenuous work. the importance of pre-em- ? oyment and periodic physical examinations and industrial med ical and nursing services is be- ing multiplied many,old.
 The progress Whlcn has been rade in our country against tu- bcrculosis must continue, All of tae good work which has been done over the past several years should not be erased by any na- tional emergency. With this in mind. t is evident that the cam paign against tuberculosis in 1942 will be an intensive one, and it might well be divided into two general divisions.
 The first may well be summed up as the division which is to cooperate with all agencies in the national emergency. The second division is that which will main tain the gains which have been made among our civilian popula- tian since the turn of the cen tury.

Sports

Foremost in the hearts of most young men when. the fall of the year comes around Is athletics football and basketball. Football being a bit far-fetched for Nome, is cut of the question. and basket ball is put into prominence Nome has shown fine spirit of cooperation in allowing us to use its gym and allowing us 10 play against its teams.
 Last Monday night saw the bas ketball schedule get under way with three games being played.
 The first game of the evening was played by the Goldbricks & the Aces the Goldbricks coming out on top by the score of 31 to 20 Jones, center for the Gold bricks, capturing the scoring hon ors with 12 points. The most spectacular play of the game oc- cured when Jones stole the ball from Minnick, center for the Aces, and raced down the floor unmolested for field goal. Also outstanding for the Goldbricks was George Delaney who scored points. For the Aces Stewart and AdamoWitz gave good per formances, Adamowitz scoring 8 points.
 The Old Folks proved they weren't quite so old by trouncing Kenn'S Bakery to the tune of 40 10 19. The game was fast and furious from start to finish, but the Bakery boys found themselv es a wee bit outclassed, several of the Old Folks having played on good high school and college teams. Ed Pyle, center for the O1d Folks found the hoop for IA points. Shine" Smith of the same team hit for 10 points for second honors. Spark of the de- fense for the Old Folks was It. Vanney coming up with the ball off the blackboard more often than not. It. Koenig surprized everyone by his prowess on the court. We didn't think he had it in him.
 The final game of the evening between the Muleriders and The Southerners turned out to be the most thrilling, the Muleriders shading The Southerners B to g. The score was close all the way through, neither team being more than four points ahead at any time, The Southerners SCOT ed first late in the first period and held the lead until late in the third quarter when the Mule
The Nome nugget., 1941-11-21

riders took over the lead by four points by the end of the period Defense of a good nature was dis played by both teams. Judging from the fine play Monday night, these two teams should be in there pitching for honors by the end of the season.

Tuberculosis And Total Defense

How unfortunate it iS-at this season of the year-to find such paradoxical statements making the rounds. On one side We find such expressions as armed forces, blackout, bombers, casualties and destroy. And yet at the same time We are extending Christ mas Greetings of hope and for a happy and a healthful New Year to our fellowmen.
 And so it is that we ln this country approach the Christmas Season in a war-minded world. And no defensive efforts whether among the armed forces, or among civilians, can be complete unless the health of all of us re- ceive major atention. A nation composed of healthy men and women is a nation well prepared Tor any emergency.
 And now with practically ev- cry country in the world under arms, the American people are called upon for total defense. And when we say total defense, that is exactly what we mean. Halfway or even three-quarter measures will not do.
 Our armed forces, first of all, must be physically fit. Because tuberculois $ a disease of youth, 1t IS imperative that all of the young men in the army and the navy be free of the disease upon entering the service. Just as inn portant. these young men should be in such good physical condi- ton that they are able 10 with stand the r.ecrs that come with serving in the armed forces.
 All of us should give consider able thought to the effect of tu- bercuiosis has on the health of the public in times of war.
 IuV pruJ1em ot JuocrcufOSIS IS always accentuated during a per iod of great physical stress. The steady decline of morbidity and mortality from tuberculosis is well known. The most valuable element in the future program :s increased emphasis on case find ing procedures; the tuberculin test and, especially, the X-ray ex animation of positive reactors and of contacts in families and Community groups. Early diognos is and prompt folloW-up by eff clent public health nurse instruc tion are basic factors in the cf- fective use. of cotnrol measures.
 In regard 10 a healthy people carrying on al home if is neces- sary that our production fscil- ities be kept going at full speed - not marred by workers who are ill. A recent official tabula- tion showed that more than 10000 industrial plants in the United States have been awarded government contracts to manu- fracture vital defense materials

World Begging For Ships

The big advantage, as far national defense is
concerned lies in the facilities for ship construction
If this country is beleaguered the shipyards a
thousand miles inland obviously would be i'll less dang
er of bombing than the establishments the sea-
shore
Moreover, it would take much Of the pressure off
the shipyards that are crowded beyond capacity;
and the demand for ships now is acute element IN
the national emergency
Every friend we have among the nations is clamor-
ing for transportation to make up for the vessels
alienated from commerce by the demands Of the war
abroad.
Our present shipbuilding establishments must be
monopozed practically, by the vast naval expansion
with it's goal of two-ocean Navy. We had to have
that because the British fleet which we relied
consciously unconscousy-to take care of the At
lantic in the event of Pacific Ocean involvement,
can't be on that job now
There is the possibility that it may never get
back the job, for nobody can be sure of what may
occur in great war.

Highway Budget Wins Approval

For the first time since creation Of the Arizona
Highway Commission protests were registered
against the budget for the ensuing year Tenta
tive adoption Of the budget this week in Phoenix wa
met by harmony, enchanced by numerous expressions
Of approval
While it is true few delegations expressed the
hope they would receive more money for their coun
ties they qualified their statements with expressions
Of satisfaction.
In the words of Monte Mansfield, Tucson, veteran
former commissioner II didn't think it could be done
this accomplishment of pleasing nearly everybody.
1t is little short of mraclew
Others, who have been close observers of highway
affairs over the years, expressed similar amazement
at the practical and tactful method employed by the
commissioners in setting up the budget. They have
given ample evidence of their desire to bring greatest
possible road benefits to all sections Of the state
In winning approval for their labors, the commits
sioners seemingly have stymed the activities of those
political brick-throwers who live in glass houses
The present highway commission has earned the
high esteem Of all Of Arizona. It's members, through
level-headed judgment and impartialty, have made
lasting contribution to the states progress in high
way matters.

Light And Stars

Do you know what light year is? Well, we didn't,
or if we did we had forgotten.
We were sitting in the back yard the other night,
chatting with Albert Abbott friend of ours who is
something of scientist. Overhead the black sky was
studded with stars brilliant clear pnpoints of light
lending faint illumination to us on the Earth. The
big dpper hung out in all its glory directly above
Abbott pointed his pipestem upwards and said, Il
wonder if that planet is still there?"
We looked up All the stars were there as far as
we could see So looked to be- it was lemonade
our friend had been drinking Then we learned about
light years.
light year is the distance ray of light, moving
at the rate of about 184 thousand miles a second
Imagine that) travels in one year. The figures, we
believe come to something like 40 with long string
of ciphers following.
Anyway it seems that some of the planets, stars to
U.S. are so far away that if one of them should burn
out just like an electric light bulb, it would be years
before would know it. We would still be seeing
that last ray of light for years while it Travelled to-
ward us, altho the source of the light was gone.
Another thing we learned is that there lot
stars than could see 1t seems that there are
many planets so far away that the light by the time
it reaches here weak to be visible to the average
eye. They take pictures Of it, however, They
put camera in position and make long exposure,
sometimes for hours, letting the light pile up until 1t
registers the film This way they find stars never
seen before
ADDOtt Sa1Q thaC the new AOO lncn CeleScope CAey
are going to have in operation will reveal thou
sands Of new stars out there. -
We speculated on some of the imaginary stories
which have been written about travel to other planets
We did little figuring and learned that to travel
back and forth to nearest neighbors, even, the
distance so great that the conveyance used would
either have to be nearly fast light travels or else
so big that it could carry enough supplies for years
of living in it while we on the way.
We also learned that it would take us longer to gel
back than to go out that the whole universe
is expanding, planets all travelling away from each
other at the rate of something like 18 miles second
Another curious thing. The engine whatever
mean of propulsion used for space car, WOul(
only have to push us half way. AS soon we lef
the attraction of the Earth would start to fall to
ward the planet to which we were travelling.
Did YOU know that there have been number O.
