Former Bluftonite To Present Paper
At PoliOmyelitis Congress In Geneva

A former Bluffton woman, now as
sociate director of the social science
department, University hospital, Uni
versity of Michigan, has been invited
to present a paper at the Internation-
al Poliomyelitis Congress meeting in
Geneva, Switzerland, July 4-8.
Ruth A. Locher, graduate of Bluff
ton high school and Bluffton college,
was advised of the honor recently.
She will be first non-medical partici-
pant in the Congress.
Miss Locher's paper will be on
THE Vocational Aspects in the Re
Mobilization of the Severely Handi-
capped Poliomyelitis Respiratory Pa
tent"
The invitation to Miss Locher came
as a result of four years of work with
polio patients who had severe in
volvement of all extremities rlus
complete or partial paralysis of the
breathing muscles. Many of these
patients were young fathers and
mothers. Rehabilitation of these peo-
pie had seemed impossible in the
past, and most of such patients in
previous years had been doomed to

life in a tank respirator located in a
hospital.
Treatment in the Respirator Center
at University hospital concentrated
upon return to the normal environ
ment, with emphasis upon as useful
life as could be possible.
The program was developed upon
the philosophy that tremendous OBJ
Stacles could be overcome with un-
ceasing efforts on the part of the
treatment team.
The Respirator Center at the Uni
versity hospital was the third in the
country established by the National
Foundation of Infantile PARALYSIS.
There are now Is such centers, all
located in medical centers connected
with schools of medicine. Although
research in these centers is focused
on poliomyelitis, the findings have
been applicable to other diseases.
Miss Locher is the daughter of
the late Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Locher,
who some years ago lived on South
Main street in what is now the Fred
Badertscher residence.

Pirates Face KentOn And Wapakoneta
On Successive Nights In WBL Contests

For better or for worse the Bluff.
ton Pirates will know where they
stand in the tough Western Buckeye
league chase after the road games
with Kenton and Wapakoneta this
weekend
Currently leading the league with
a 20 mark the Pirates face one of
their two toughest opponents this
season when they take on the pre-
season favorite Kenton Wildcats Fri
day night.
Kenton, fresh from a $3.50 victory
over defending champion st. Marys
last weekend, is paced by CT Jim
Sewers, one of the really top point
makers of the area. Sewers poured in
81 points last weekend when Kenton
dealt. the potent Roughriders their
first league loss in more than two
years.
KentOn Power Estimated
A measure of the potential in the
Kenton club can be gained from their
1888 victory over Ada, holder of a
65-57 upset victory over the Pirates.
Reports indicate that Kenton, which
will carry only a Ga record into
tomorrow nights fray is a spotty
tea When they are hot they can
han most of the area teams, but
when they are cold they can be
beaten.
Ii the Pirates clear this big hurdle
they will have another tough one the
following night when they tackle
towering Wapakoneta Blume. Wapak
also has CT center but ne is re-
ported to be not nearly as agile as
the clever Sewers.
The Redskins will go into the Sat
urday encounter relatively fresh as
they have a comparative breather
against in and out Ada on tap for
Friday night This will be their first
league game of the season.
Pirates Seek Revenge
Another factor going for tn G
Pirates will be a desire for revenge
against the Redskins, whose tight
1872 victory on the local gridiron
was the only defeat the Pirates suf-
fered in their championship year.
Coach Joe Harris feels that his
Pirates have better chance of COM
ing through unscarred because of the
schedule break which sends them
against the tougher Kenton five
while they are still fresh. If they
come through this weekend unmark--
ed their only strong opposition will
be from st. Marys, whom they meet
the first weekend in February.
If Bluffton keeps up their red-hot

BluftOn To Get
New Stone Quarry?
Time Will Tell

Quarrying, which has been one of
Bluffton's principal industries since
the towns beginnings, may be in
for further development.
Local curiosity has been stirred re-
Gently by the excavating being con-
Quoted by Martin Loeffler on the par
eel of land he recently purchased
from the Maurice Fett farm south
east of town.
Although Mr.. Loeff1er would not
disclose his intention for use of the
land, either to Mr.. Fett or to Bluff
ton News representative who contact
ed him last week, the digging appears
to be for quarry purposes.
The land lies in a strip bordering
the Warren ditch and extending from
County Line road on the east to Riley
creek on the west.
Since purchasing the land, Loeffler
and his son have done some clearing
work with bulldozer and presently
are using power shovel from K and
P Excavating of Lima to do exca-
waiting work.
At the present time the work is
confined to stripping the soil away
down to the bed rock, which lies a.
bout three feet below the surface in
the excavated portions. When the
rock had been reached some blasting
work was done and smaller holes sew
eral feet deep have been cut into the
rock
The major excavation presently
lies at the extreme western end of
the property, only short way from
Riley creek. The second excavation
is located at the other end of the
only a short distance from
the county line road.
