Tooth Decay Lowest
In Southwestern u. s,
Army Study Shows
By the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
Go Southwest, young man, II you
want to keep your rate Of tooth de-
cay the lowest.
There's f1uorine In the drinking
water down there, and the vege-
tables fruit and milk are described
as proportionately high in mineral
elements.
That comes from report of stud
les made on the incidence of tooth
decay among several thousand Army
aviation cadets representing every
State in the Union and now sta
toned at San Antonio, Tex.
The report was made to the Mill
tary Surgeon by Capt. William w.
Semi of the Army Dental Corps,
who said the men studied should
give good cross-section of the in
cidence of dental decay in the vari-
GUS States.
The studies showed that:
l. The incidence Of decaying, miss
ing and filled teeth was lowest
among cadets hailing from Texas
and Oklahoma. They had an aver
age of only nine defective teeth
apiece. Arizona, Montana and New
Mexico men were next lowest, with
an average of II apiece.
2. The incidence was highest
among men coming from the State
Of Washington, the cadets from that
locality showing an average Of 81 de-
fectives apiece. Close contenders for
that rating were Vermont, Massa-
chusetts and Maryland, with an
average of 20 a cadet. and Wiscon-
sin, Utah, Oregon, New York and
Maine, with 49,
3. The Californians were in the 16
class, and Capt. Sem concluded:
Prom the data presented it is evi-
dent that huorine may be an i'm
portant factor in the prevention Of
dental carries.
1T is also important to note that
the vegetables, fuit and milk, as well
as the water consumed in the South
west area of the United States, are
proportionately high in mineral ele-
menus.
Here's the rest of the box score on
the incidence of decay among cadets
from the various States:
Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas
and Nevada, an average Of IL decay
ing, missing or filed teeth apiece;
Alabama, Georgia, Nebraska, North
and South Carolina and wyoming,
13; Mississippi and South Dakota,
IA: Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Louisi-
ana, Missouri, North Dakota and
Tennessee, Is; California, Illinois,
Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia,

and New Jersey, II; Connecticut,

fleeing at the head of his Cherbourg

Rain held up air activity some
what. Rain also was falling along
the beaches.
American battleships moved in

duelling was the heaviest of the war.
Field dispatches revealed the most
powerful American bombardment

In this close bombardment were
the battleship Nevada and the

CToday's German communique
said the ultimatum had been
ignored)
It was said here that last nights
German premature reports that the
port had fallen indicated the Ger
man high command was out Of
touch with the hard-pressed garri-
son and it was probable its defense
was no longer centrally controlled.
Tending to confirm the idea that
Berlin does not know what is hap
pening in Cherbourg was q German
International Information Bureau
dispatch shortly before noon today
(6 am. EWT) which said the as
.sault against the port started at
o'clock last night and that "the town
Of Cherbourg is in Allied hands. "
This followed q night of on-again,
off-again radio reports from Ger
many.
The drive on the peninsula closed
up American lines east Of the port
to the sea, leaving st. Vaast la

deep-water anchorages.
Isolated pockets OF resistance still
were holding out In the northeastern
tip of the peninsula, but the Ameri-
can advance had overflowed the en-
tire sector and 1t was just question
OF mopping up. Some Germans were
entrenched deeply underground in
strong fortiflcations and had to be
blown out.
East of the port the Germans still
hold small salient from Brettville
along the coast toward Cap Berfieur.
The supreme command said the
American advances have been
made by 'inflltrating" Cherboure's
strong points. Some forts and
pillbox nests have been by-passed
to a depth Of a mile and then
surrounded and attacked from the
rear.

Fires and Ruins
At Cherbouru
An Eerie Sight
Not a Thing Alive
Along One Avenue,
Reporter Finds
BY LARRY LESUEUR,
CHS Correspondent.


OUTSIDE CHERBOURG, June
26.-American troops are fight
ing street battles in the city of
Cherbourg this morning. Last
night troops moved into the city
from both flanks, occupying the
streets leading to the military
fort on the left and around the
commercial basin on the right.
At dawn today troops in the CEN
ter moved directly forward into the
city, and when I left Cherbourg an
hour ago they were fighting around
a post officee in the center of town..
drove by jeep up the main road
to Cherbourg until we came to a
roadblock. A huge crater had made
the central road impossible to We
hicles. We started forward on foot
and entered the city between two
still-smoking French forts which
were put out of action at dawn.
With a radio reporter colleague
and 1t. Jack Hampton of Daven-
port, Iowa, entered Cherbourg,
walking slowly down the Avenue
Carnot, leading to the railroad sta
tion.
It was an eerie sight. Houses were
in flames and there was not thing
alive on the streets, not even a cat.
Deep inside the city we could hear
the drumming of machine guns;
mortar shells lobbed here and there,
exploding with plumes OF white
smoke. Obviously the city had been
evacuated OF its civilian population.
I read the German order pasted
on the wall, ordering every inhabi-
tant not connected with public works
to leave, including all women, even
the wives of those who remained
behind. The evacuation was ordered
at nightfall-June II.
When machine-gun bullets whistled
down the smoky, deserted streets, I
took shelter in a still-burning build
ing near huge prewar sign of q
British Royal Mail line, inviting
all to take trips to Brazil and the
Argentine. A drenching rain was
falling, but still the sound Of street
battle exploded from the center of
the city.
could not see very much Of
the city, but 1t appeared that most
OF the damage is on the outskirts.
The statue Of the great Norman
painter, Jean Millet, is SCARED by
shrapnel. From the direction Of
the enemy fire, I gather that the
Germans are holding out in a
Cherbourg arsenal, in the seaplane
base and In the military port.
On the way back, we passed a
large prison camp which American
engineers have been constructing
for days, in anticipation of the
incoming prisoners, and some of
them already were behind barbed
wire. A group Of about 1000 were
smoking cigaretts and sheltered
from the rain under blankets. It
was the largest collection of prison.
ers I have yet seen since The Sec
ond front started.
