shape it would have caused wide
spread disappointment and there
would have been no story. So it
will not come as great surprise
10 find that the dentists have APP
parently not been too faithful in
following out their own injunc-
tons TO see your dentist twice a
year. The final conclusion was
that the mouths Of the dentists
under study were in need of con-
siderable restorative work.
The age of the dentists was 81
10 65. The average number of
teeth per mouth that had been re-
tanned by the dentists was twenty
seven, quite high considering the
wide age range group. 1t un-
doubtedly shows that the dentists
paid far more attention to their
own advice in an attempt at pre-
serving their teeth than the gen.
eral population. A comparative
study Of dental students who had
naturally the advantage of being
In a much younger age group
showed that trey had on the ave-
rage only about two teeth missing
per mouth TO the dentists, FIVE.
Condition Of Teeth
But the dentists had some cal
culus in the mouth in three-quar-
tiers Of those examined and over a
third of them had metallic restora-i
tons that had been allowed to go
on to secondary decay. There were.
about two teeth per mouth that
showed some evidence of decay.
All this is very refreshing. It
shows that dentists are human
after all. 1t is perfectly human to
dread going to a dentist and dem
fists share this human trait. 1t is
quite possible that they may even
be a little sorry for US while they
are working that devilish little
rat tat tat tat on our sensitive
nerve endings.
Another interesting and impor-
tant study which the American
Dental Association has kindly sent
me is on edentulous mouths, that
is, mouths that are entirely with
out teeth. You may have a rosy
thought that if all your teeth are
out you are going to have no trou-
bic with teeth for the rest Of your
life, but such is not the case. You
won't have pyorrhoea, that is true,
and edentulous mouths are entire
ly free of the Vincent's germs that
get in between the teeth and the
gums, causing pyorrhoea and so
often go further and cause tonsil-
litis and sore throat.
Retained Root Tips
The troubles that may arise to
plague the person who fondly
thinks all his teeth are out is that
some root tips have been left in
and these can often cause trouble.
An Xray study of the mouths of
3s1 such patients showed the ex-
traordinary fact that 122 Of them
had retained root tips. Most of
them had been wearing dentures
over the retained tips for many
years and while some of them COM
planned of no discomfort, many had
more or less vague pains and irri-
tations for which they knew no
cause until the retained roots
showed up on the Xray.
The lesson is that Xray studies
should be made before and after
extraction of teeth to see that no
fragments have been left in the
jaws. The time to get them out
is at the time Of extraction. 1t is
advisable not to try to remove the
retained roots. The situation
should be explained to the patient

FRANK JAMES SPENCER
 OF PIONEER FAMILY, DEAD

Frank J. Spencer, one of Bloom fields oldest residents and de- cendant of some of the earliest settlers in the community, died Sunday, January 30.
 MT. Spencer was 81 years of age and lived all his life in the house on Park Avenue in which he was born. He was the son of the late John w. Spencer and Annie Egg gleston Spencer whose families came here to help complete the early settlement of the Messen- ger Farms district and to later influence the life and incorpora- tion of the Town of Bloomfield.
 In the trail of his long Ameri- can ancestry is found a close re- lationship to the f a m y of Ulysses s. Grant and other Con- necticut farmers of the early seventeenth century. MT. Spencer's grandfather, John Eggleston, was one of the original subscribers to the old Farm School erected in 1796 and now occupied by the local American Legion Post.
 As in the case of his ancestors, MT. Spencer's business was farm ing. At one time the family farm comprised several hundred acres. He leaves two sisters, Mrs. Alma Putnam and Miss Julia Spencer, who reside here, also several nieces and nephews.

WARDEPARTMENT|CITES S.SCT.FENTON'S
Says He Has Received Seven Decorations

Information from the War De- partment discloses the fact that Staff Sergeant Andrew E. Fenton has been awarded five Oak Leaf Clusters in addition to the Purple Heart and Air Medal. He has ad mitted receipt of the latter two decorations only in his communica- tions to his parents.
 The same War Department dis patch states that the crew with which "Doc" operates is oldest B-25 group in the Mediterranean War Theater. "In IA months of combat, the report advises, "the group has shot down 1O8 enemy fighters and carried out 32OO sort ies against enemy shipping, air fields, and communications"
 Sergeant Fenton, the son of MT. and Mrs. Harold J. Fenton, Tunxis Avenue, is an engineer gunner. He entered the A.A.F. January 8, 1942 and according to the latest reports had taken part in 30 combat missions over tar gets in Italy and France.
 Sergeant Fenton earned his Purple Heart decoration on June 6, 1943 when he received several bullet and shrapnel wounds. The feats accounting for his Air Medal and the five Oak Leaf Clusters have never been disclosed.

Lacking both size and experi- ence and giving the impression of going no place in particular at the beginning of the season, the Bloomfield High School basket ball team drove rough shod over all opposition in the second half of the schedule except in their closing games last week and hold now an unexpected place of prominence in the CD tournament to be played next month.

 The seasons score is wins and ' losses-a good record in any story. In general, their play in the last half of the schedule has been as good as any team turned out at the local institution in more than a decade. They still possess no more than average native ability but they show the results of good coaching and they have confidence.
 Captain Pinney has been good all year and is still the teams spark plug. LaPenna has come along fast and, in the opinion of many, is Pinney's equal when the chips are down. He has been the hero of half the wins, always at his best when the opposition is tough and the going rough. The rest of the squad is good enough tc give the team good balance may prove surprising in the state contest. The game record for the year is as follows:
