A NEW DAY IN FOOTBALL

A new day has dawned in west
coast football with the breaking
down of barriers that had kept
the professional sport out of the
Los Angeles Coliseum and with
the recent signing of Kenny Wa
shington n of the great Negro
players of all time, to a contract
to play for the world champion
Los Angeles Rams of the National
Football League.
Kenny Washington, the mighty
passing and running back from

While we were reading with
shocking sorrow the war casualties
of 1914, civilians were meeting
with death right in their owl
homes to the total of $4,000. An.
other 100000 met with non-fatal
injuries. No bombs caused all this
death and injury - they all were
the results of accidents within the
home. On top of that, home fires
destroyed property valued at over

AS part of their vigilant acct
dent-prevention program, the Ma
tional Safety Council is currently
giving emphasis to the slogan:
Have A Safe Home. It is a direc-
tive that every home should take
% heart and practice to the fullest
extent.
One of the major types of home
accidents is that of burns, explo-
sions, and CONGREGATIONS, it ac-
counting for 5000 deaths in 1914.
There are many common sense pre-
cautions which can be taken to pre-
vent this tragic loss of life, one in
particular being that the home
should have a Safe heating plant.
Being careless about heat in the
home does not pay. An annual
cleaning of the heating plant, with
a thorough inspection of the entire
system, should be a must in every
household. But an amateur in
spection is worse than none at all.
Tor it leads to false security. Get
professional to do it, and follow

'ect any faulty situations.

To all this talent Washington
adds not only mighty running po-
wer but a passing arm that has
completed six long aerials of 60
yards or over. The first of these
was a so yd. pass to Pete Tor
against Garfield in 1885. Second
was his famous 81 yard throw to
Hal Hirshon Of UCLA in the 1897
Southern California game. In pro
football in 1914 and As, he has
completed passes of IS, 81, and
6g yards respectively to Lowell

Washington's first appearance
in a Ram uniform will be against

Washington Redskins the night of

Jim Grow never sat on the bench
when the decisions were being
made.
Jackie, you will remember, told
the world a short while ago that
ne was getting every considera-
ton due him, and that he was
being given a chance to break in
to big time ball on the basis OF
his abilitypnot on his color. He
also said a few things about the
fast pace in his new surroundings
and he admitted with healthy hu-
mility that figuaratively, he die

did before the test, we say that
the child has a negative reaction
meaning there are no tuberculosis
germs in his body. If the place on
his arm where the test was given
hasbecome SWOLLEN and slightly
hard, he has a positive reaction,
meaning that somewhere in his
body are TB germs.
One little fellow in the first
grade reacted positively to the
test. This showed that he had been
around someone who had tuber-
culosis and who had given the
germs to him. Perhaps 1 should
explain here that tuberculosis is
caused by a germ. People catch
the disease from someone who has
it and spits or coughs up the germ.
The next thing we wanted to
find out was whether the child hao
the deasease. The test does not
tell whether a person is sick but
only whether the tuberculosis germ
is in his body.
The best and easiest way to find
out whether a person has tuber-
culosis is to take an X-ray picture
of his lungs. So we sent Johnny
to the clinic and had his lungs
X-rayed. When the picture was
developed, it showed that the boy
was perfectly healthy. Although
Johnny had been around someone
with the desease, his healthy body
had fought the germs and kept
them from getting into his lungs
and making him ill. 1t was a very
narrow escape for Johnny, how
ever, and must not happen again.
Now, there was no need to have
any worry about Johnny. He was
alright for the present. But some
person with whom he had been in
close contact had tuberculosis and
was spreading germs to other of
the people. Everybody might not
be able to resist them as Johnny
had.
1t wasimportant to find this
sick. He might not even know he
had tuberculosis. People do not
always know they have tubercu-
losis at first because the disease
does not make them feel bad in
the beginning. Often it is months
before the deasease does so much
damage to the lung that a person
begins to feel really ill.
We sent a note to Johnny's
mother and father and asked them
TO come to the clinic, bringing
their other children, to have X-ray
pictures taken of their chests.
They gladly came and were given
X-rays. The pictures showed their
lungs were healthy, too, SO they
We're not spreading the desease.
Questioning Johnny's mother,
we learned that her mother lived
with the family. We asked her to
have a chest x-ray. She did not
want to do it but finally agreed.
AS it turned out, however, she
did not have tuberculosis either,
We had checked all of Johnny's
immediate family and still had not
found where he had picked up the
germs No one else in his class at
school had a positive reaction. SO
ne had not got the germs from
ms school friends. Where had he
gotten them? We had to keep on
searching.
one day when I was talking to
Johnny he told me that if his me.

US another clue. We visited the

AS soon as we saw the picture
OF her lungs, We knew our search
was ended. Her lungs were dis
