Papers in Il States Asked
Not 10 Give Temperatures

By the Associated Press.
SEATTLE, Jan. 3.-The I'd Inter-
ceptor Command today requested
newspapers in the II States covered
by the command to refrain from

casts.

The command public relations Of
flee said storm warnings would be

erty damage might thus be avoided.

Junior High School
Denial Examinations
Start Tomorrow
Extension to Students
In Senior Institutions
Is Considered

Dental inspection Of junior high
school students throughout the Dis
trict will be started tomorrow, this
being the first time the dental ex-
aminations by the Health Depart
ment staff has been extended to
pupils above the sixth grade.
Further extension of the program
to include senior high school stu
dents is under consideration, Dr.
George C. Rutland, health officer,
said.
The junior high school student
survey, which is expected to be
completed by the end Of this month,
was recommended to the Board of
Education because the present
defense program had brought to
light a high percentage of dental
defects among men eligible for mill
tary service. the health officer said.
1t was felt necessary to develop
means of preventing disqualifying
conditions so that young men would
be better fitted for defense service,
he added.
DR.. Rutland characterized the
new program as IAN important step"
In prevention Of accumulation Of
dental defects among young men
prior to their registration for the
draft.
The purpose Of the survey is to
determine the nature and extent of
dental defects in the Junior High
School level and also find out how
early these conditions occur. A sta
tistical study Of the findings will be
prepared and reviewed as an aid
to the development of a permanent
dental health program of value in
defense.
The pupils found to have defects
needing attention will be referred
to their private dentist for corrective
work. Pupils whose parents are un-
able to afford the services of a
private dentist will be referred to
one of the nine school dental clinics
for free dental service.
The Health Department Bureau
of Dental Service, of which DR.. A.
Harry Ostrow Is director, will inspect
the pupils at the rate of about 1000
each day.
