EweII Declared Pro
As Result Of Gift by
Hometown Fans
BY the Associoied Press

PHILADELPHIA. Jan. Am
edict by the Amateur Athletic Union
has ended the brilliant track and
field career of Henry Norwood Bar
ney) Ewell, 31-year-old sprinter and
broad jumper.
The swift Negro from Lancaster,
Pa, second in the Olympic 100 and
200-meter dashes last summer, was
declared a professional in ruling
announced yesterday by Frank N.
Percival, secretary of the Middle
Atlantic District Of the AAU.
The ruling, handed down by Judge
Harry s. McDevitt, president Of the
Middle Atlantic group, came after
the former Penn State star had &C
cepted a furnished house as a gift
from appreciative Lancaster citizens.
Il am living in the house and
proud Of it," said Ewell, who is now
highway construction supervisor
in Pennsylvania. Il thought it was
aWfully nice to do what they did
and it certainly would be ungrateful
gift or seek some way out.
"As far as I am concerned, the
AAU ruling is final. Ill make no
appeal"
Checked by District AAU.
McDevitt issued his ruling after
Ewell entered the January Is Wash
ington Star Game and District of
Columbia AAU officials inquired as
to his amateur status.
Proceeds Of a Lancaster track
meet held in honor of Barney on
his return from the olympics were
to be set aside as an educational
fund for the sprinters 2S-month- old
son. That procedure was approved
by the registration committee of
the Middle Atlantic AAU.
But the money ultimately was
used to purchase furniture for the
house given the Ewells.
I'm sorry it happened this way
though was afraid it would" said
Ewell after being informed of his
disbarment as an amateur. Il
thought Id enter a couple of meets
and see whether I still was eligible. :"
Aid for Family Approved.
During the olympics, Lancaster
sportsmen, acting on approval of
Avery Brundage, chairman of the
American Olympic Committee, con-
tributed to the support of Ewell's
family.
Ewell has been in the forefront
OF the American track and field
picture since even before he won
his first national title-the Junior
l00-meter championship in 1886.
He is the only man ever to win
the IC-4A sprints and broad Jump
three straight years. He accom-
plished that feat for Penn State in
1940-41-42.
At an age when most sprinters
have laid aside their shoes, Ewell
qualified for the olympic team last
summer. He was nosed out by Har-
rison billiard Of Baldwin Wallace In
the 100-meter dash and finished q
close second to Mel Patton In the
200. He also was q member of the
United States relay team that won
the 400-meter baton title after first
being disqualified.
Informed Of the disbarment of
Barney Ewell, Howard p. Bailey,
chairman Of The Evening star-AAU
Games, said that the invitation to
Ewell to run in The Star Games
would be withdrawn.
I'VE regret deeply that Washing
ton track fans will not have a
chance to see Ewell rum" he said.
I'VE had planned to present him

was something coldly scientific.

court in the country.
YET did he dare face the risk of
the consequences should his own

would have to. For the problem
he wrestled with was far greater
than the death of three people.
For two years he had labored
doggedly to find a weak spot in
the ranks of enemy infiltration.
For two years he had labored
in vain. But now he had some
thing definite "a traitor in a

He turned and faced the young

Craig paused a moment, then

KEEPING HEALTHY
The Liver, Most Vital 10 Health
BY DR.. james W. Barton

BECAUSE the liver has so many
- different jobs to do and the
liver means so much to our general
health, we should all try to remem-
Der that it is the largest organ in
the body and contains about Is
per cent of all the blood
One of the jobs of the liver is
manufacturing bile which breaks
up fats for digestion. 1t is an anti
septic destroying harmful organ
isms and natural purgative pre-
venting constipation. 1t is, there
fore, true saying that "life de-
ponds upon the liver"
Another important job is the
manufacture by the liver of SUBJ
stance needed by the blood.
Aside from the bile killing harm
full organisms, the liver cells them
selves filter out poisons from the
blood, which, if not removed, would
cause tiredness and weakness. In
order to find whether or not the
liver is doing this important job of
filtering wastes and poisons from
the blood, various tests are made,
one of which is giving a dye by
mouth or injections and seeing how

FIRST AID to the

Building A Basement Room
by Roger c. Whitman

Question: We have a project in
mind and am able to do the
work myself if I have a little help.
We want to dig out a basement
under the kitchen; we have two
rooms under the house already.
Have you any leaflets on thing out
the drain, and footings for con-
crete blocks? After the basement
room is completed, we plan on
kitchen sink and cupboards. Have
you any leaflets on plumbing for
q kitchen?
Answer: Those are all rather
large subjects, and l do not have
any leaflets to cover them. If there
Is a good public library in your
town, you should find handbooks
on plumbing and piping on file.

long it takes the liver to remove
all the dye from the blood.
Recently research workers, in
vestigating two common ailments
gallstones and ulcer of the stomach
and the first part of the small in
testine (peptic ulcer)-took a tiny
piece of the liver from these pa
tients for examination under the
microscope and found that in only
6 to 7 per cent was the liver in a
normal, healthy condition.
AS the liver is really the "chief''
or most important organ in the
body from the health standpoint,
we should all try to keep it active
and healthy by two simple meth

rich foods; and, second, keeping
the liver in an active" condition
by bending exercises, keeping the
knees straight.
At McGill university, Montreal,
some years ago, research workers
showed that squeezing the liver by
bending exercises or deep breath

HEALTH NOTES

While the passing of blood is but
one symptom of cancer of the gen.
erative and urinary parts, it is one
of the early signs and gives the
patient chance for successful
treatment. Formerly, patients and,
sometimes, physicians were lulled
into false security by thinking that
when the bleeding stopped, the
progress of the underlying cause
also stopped. But such is not the
case.

The economic cost of heart dis
ease is staggering in terms of loss
of life, absenteeism, disability, loss
of gainful employment, and care
and treatment programs.
It has been found that insulin-
which reduces the sugar in the
blood, brings on sleep and increases
the appetite-is more effective in
restoring the alcoholic patient to
normal than any other method.

Answer: Yes. Most frequently the
urge to "flirt with danger" repre-
sents an effort to avoid the shame
of being thought a coward, and
still more of being forced to rec
ognize how frightened you'd be if
you stopped to think about it."
