1916 High School Nine Looks Good;
Triplett Softball Practice Starts

Buttons spring sports program
was beginning to take shape this
week, with Bluffton High school
baseball and tennis squads working
out daily, and the Triplett softball
team inaugurating its practice sea-
son this Wednesday night.
Bluffton Highs promising baseball
team is approaching mid-season form
as the result of an unusually sus-
tanned practice period of two weeks
undisturbed by the weather.
Opening of the season still is a
week and a half in the offing, and
the Pirates are expected to be in
top form when they tangle with
Lima st. Gerard here on Friday,
April II, in the opening game of a
schedule that will pit the Burckymen
against the five other schools in the
Lima league.
Bluffton High tennis practice is
just getting under way, with Coach
Sidney Stettler directing the work
outs.
Triplett softball practice will be
started at p. m. this Wednesday at
Harmon field, it was announced
Tuesday by Maynard Geiger, presi-
dent of the association. An early
start of team play is anticipated
this summer.

of isolated cases of malaria in the
past lend credence to her statement.
Consideration of the matter came
before the council in line with discus
sion of the crisis the town faces in
attempting to find someone to assume
the responsibility of regularly spray
ing creeks and other bodies of water
as part OF a mosquito control pro-
gram that has been continued each
year since its inception back in l940.
No Control Operator
Mayor w. A. Howe, who has been
in charge of control operations for
the last three years because no takers
could be found for the job, announced
Monday he will not consider handling
spraying of the creeks this summer.
Failure to obtain man for the
work will find Bluffton reverting to
former history when the town had
what was unofficially recognized as
the worst mosquito infestation in the
county.
Buttons two sewage-flled creeks,
running a parallel course thru the
length of the municipality, provide
ideal breeding ground for mosquitoes,
and without proper control heavy in
festation can be expected.
Mosquitoes Plentiful
Coupled with the situation is the
fact that mosquitoes will be unusually
prolific this year because of mild
winter weather. Few mosquitoes and
larvae have been killed off, and some
have been seen already this spring.
A new source of malaria from re-
turned war veterans who had the
disease overseas must be reckoned
with this year, it was pointed out.
Nature of the disease is such that re-
curing attacks can be expected mas
much as medical treatment serves
only to arrest the malady.
Should malaria-carriers bite any
one suffering from the disease, it can
be transmitted to others bitten by
the same insect, and if the proper
type mosquitoes are found here as a
result of the investigations the town
may have new problem to solve.
Since pioneer days malaria has
rarely occurred locally, but the fact
that isolated cases are on record is
taken as an indication that malaria
carrying mosquitoes can be found here

Malaria Outbreak Seen
AS Possible Here This
Summer

Concluded from Page u

(CQncluded from rage
ped because of the lack of an operator
for the coming spring and summer
months.
With the future of mosquito con-
troll here uncertain, it appears of vi
tai Importance to determine whether
the malaria-type mosquito is found
locally. More mosquitoes than usual
are expected this summer, condi-
ton that follows a mild winter and
an investigation will be started at
once to determine if the malaria
carrying type is among the mosquitoes
here.
Two Attacks Planned
Two avenues of approach to the
problem are planned. First is labor
atory analysis to identify Buttons
mosquitoes by families which will be
made by the high school biology class
directed by Geiger.
Also DR.. M. r. Bixel, Bluffton ply
sician and vice president of the Allen
County Board of Health will outline
the situation at a meeting of the
board at Lima this Wednesday. DR..

tion to the problem and if necessary
to conduct an independent investiga-
tion.

|Luce's 17-woman committee which
sought deletion of the words white

Mrs. Grace L. H. Brosseau of

Poppies Tell
Stories Made
By Veterans

There is a story behind every
one OF the little req popp1es which
the citizens of Wilmington will
wear in honor OF the war dead
on Saturday, May Is, Poppy Day.
Each poppy is different and has
its W story, explained Mrs. j.
B. Edwards, president of the Will
mington unit of the American
Legion auxiliary, which is COM
pleting preparations for observ-
ance of Poppy Day here.
The peoples have been received
at American Legion headquarters
here from Fayetteville hospital
where they we're made by dis
abled veterans of both world wars.
Mrs. Edwards told about them as
they were being sorted. counted
and made ready for distribution.
LAS they are made by hand, no
two of the flowers are exactly
alike" she said. Some come
from the hands of men who were
hurt % years ago in the battles
of the first world war. Others have
been shaped by young veterans,
injured in Europe or in the Pa
citic in the second conflict, who
made peoples this year for the
first time. If we could know the
stories Of all those. veterans, old
and young, they would make ar
epic of service and suffering for
the security of America.
Making the peoples has two
important benefits for the disabled
veterans" Mrs. Edwards con-
tinued. First, it enables them to
earn money. The American Legion
auxiliary pays them for every
poppy they make. To actually earn
some money again is an encourag-
ing experience for these men, ait
er long months Of helplessness'
Most of them send the money
home to their families.
Second, the work is valuable
as occupational therapy. IL occu.
pies their hands and minds and
helps them get well.
81 hope everyone who puts on a
poppy on Poppy Day Will look
closely at the little flower and
think of the men who make the
poppies. what they have been
