Tigers Drop Grid
'Preview' bue Fetter
Pleased By Showing

Although the Redwood Tigers
dropped their preview game to
Forest 60 Friday night, Coach
Richard Fetter was not too badly
disappointed by their showing.
Forest scored its only touch
down on long pass from Waller
to Marshall who got behind the
Tiger Saftey man and scored
easily.
Just before the intermission
Redwood exploded in the air and
completed three consecutive pas
ses to take them deep into scoring
territory as time ran out. For the
evenings work, the Redwood
paSsers, Stanley Rush and Milli-
gan, completed five out of eight
tries.
The game will give Coach Fet-
ter chance to correct defects
found under actual game condi
tions and if none of the injuries
sustained in the preview prove
too serious, it will prove to be a
worthwhile event.

AT Columbus, Attorney Gertner
said that Hensel in an affidavit,
charges he was twice beaten at
the Jail numerically without
any provoation." The second time,
Hensel stated, he was beaten "al-
most to Inconsistencies, bruis-
ing both ears black and blue, cut
ting the lower lip, blackening the
right eye and making abrasions
on his nose"
The affidavit was supported by
a copy of letter from DIR. H. E.
Stricken, of Marysville, who aver
redehe treated Hensel the follow
ing day. DR.. StTcker remarked:
HE appeared to me to have
been in fight; and received the
worst of the deal"
Hensel said the beatingS fol-
lowed his request to use the
phone to arrange bail. He said
several other prisoners witnessed
the beating, but could name one
Harold Yoder, of Bellefontaine.
Hensel said he believed Yoder al
SO was beaten for promising to
testify in his behalf.
In his letter to the Logan coun-
ty Bar president, Attorney Cert
ner recalled the Columbus police
brutality" probe and asserted
that the affidavit indicated your
Sheriff is overstepping the bounds
of propriety." Gertner continued:
"As lawyers we are interested
in permitting clients to get to
telephones when arrested. AS
good citizens, we are interested
in having the law take its prop
er course rather than to have a
law enforcing officer prejudge,
try, convict and execute sentence
by force in star chamber proceed
ings."
Records of Mayor Walker
Cline's court in Huntsville show
that Hensel appeared at 1880 p. m.
Sunday, entered a plea of guilty
to driving while intoxicated, and
was fined $50 and costs of suit.

whole hospitals not yet under
construction and reductions in IA
others. -.
So the Senate subcommittee is
attempting to find out exactly
why the cutback was ordered,
why. the Budget Bureau decided
the hospital construction program
was too big.
Here are some of the things it
has found:
According to the Budget Bureau,
the original construction program
would probably result in over
building" When the tremendous
construction program was fist
planned, back in 1914 and 1945,
the war was still on. The people
who did the planning (VA,
Federal Board of Hospitalization,
etc. had extremely inadequate
planning data" to 60 on. All they
had was World War I experience
They decided that If they had to
err they had better 'err well on
Evening star., 1949-03-28

A question Is going to be put
before the American people one OF
these days which will have large
significance for all veterans. It's
not new. It's this:
Should the United States tax
payer pay for all hospital costs OF
all Americans who happened to
serve in q war and are now
veterans?
There is no argument Cat least
that I've ever heard about free
disqualification and medical care
for service connected disabilities.
Any service-connected disability
rates complete and excellent care,
at no cost to its owner.
But how about the millions OF
veterans who never had a service
CONNECTED disability but who.
like every one else. have auto
mobile accidents. catch pneu-
monia. are laid low with tubercu-
losis, become psychotics or any
thing else you can think OF?
Should they have free hospitali-
zation rights just because OF their
more -than-90 days service during
time of war?
Before 1923 they didn't. At
that time only the serivce-con-
nected disability cases were ad-
mitted free to VA hospitals. But
in that year Congress passed a law
which said that any other veteran
who signed the so-called "pauper's
oath" could go free to VA hos
pital, provided q bed was avail
able. Then, In 1885. Congress
amended the law. 1t decided that
any such veteran who signed a
statement Gnot pauper's OATH
that he was financially unable to
pay his own hospital costs could
tgo to a VA hospital-again pro-
vading a bed was available.
These statements are not in
vestigated. Theoretically. Midas
himself, If he we're United States
war veteran, could take advantage
of free hospital care If a bed was
available.
That's the background. Now
why has this question come up so
strongly again? One reason Is the
investigation which a Senate
Labor subcommittee. headed by
Senator Pepper of Florida, has
been conducting. Subject of the
investigation is the order put out
by President Truman in January
cutting back the huge hospital
construction program of the VA.
Mr.. Truman's order, which VA
Administrator Carl Gray says was
recommended by the Budget
Bureau, not by the VA, cut out
$4,000 beds. Involved were "a
