ANOTHER DEFEAT

Carver High School is credited
with another double defeat which
took place Monday night Feb. 4,
1857 in Magnolia High School Gym.
The fortunate ones were the boys
and girls of Thirty-third High
School, Gulfport, Miss. The girls
scores were only 1921 in favor
of Gulfport, The boys scores were
a disappointing last minute 54-51.
The only suitable excuse for the
boys is that they couldn't concen-
trate on the game for watching
those "shiney heads" In win or
defeat, all of Carver's games are
thrillers. Watch the schedule for
their next game.

TODAY IN MEDICINE
Prenatal Key Sought
In Nervous Affections

broad category Of disorders to
which the collaboratives in
vestigations into the prenatal
period are primarily directed.
1t afflicts some 2.5 million
adults and 100000 children in
this country.
Researchers believe prenatal
factors play a key role in the
development Of cerebral palsy
with its paralysis. postural
abnormalities, bizarre and UNI
comfortable movements.
An early lack Of oxygen
anoxia is believed to play an
important role here. Expert
ments with guinea pigs have
shown that the animals after
being asphyxiated and resusci-
tated underwent a series of
twitchings not unlike typical
cerebral palsy symptoms.
Mental retardatiOn. Expert
ments with small animals in
volving lack of oxygen indicate
this has a direct bearing on
mental retardation. Rehesus
monkeys are being used to in
duce mental retardation in a
situation more comparable to
that Of man.
Researchers hope that more
information on the specific
impact Of oxygen lack on mans
central nervous system will
lead to both effective preven-
tive and rehabilitative treat
ment methods in this field.
Multiple sclerOsis. This is
described as a disease in which
myelin-a fatty sheath cover
ing the nerve f1bers of the
central nervous system in
healthy individuals - is de-
stroyed. The study Of this
affection has been hampered
by inability to create the dis
ease in animals. Only recently
an institute grantee devised a
method Of doing this, a devel-
opment believed to hold great
promise in determining It's
actual nature and specific
causes.
ParkinsOn's disease. Strik-
ing at the nerve system in the
brain stem, regions particularly
concerned with the regulation
OF muscle tone, automatic acts,
posture control, limited surveys
indicate it affects two males
for every female it strikes.
ReSerpine, "a widely used
tranquilizing drug for the treat
ment of the mentally i'll, over
a period of time brings on
tremors, rigidity and other
symptoms associated with
Parkinson's disease.
The injection of an anesthet-
ic, such as novocain, into part
of the brain diminishes or
abolishes these tremors in
animals.
Other Research Carried On
Other areas of research at
the institute include the field
of epilepsy, muscular dystrophy
and neuromuscular disorders,
brain tumors, eye and hearing
maladieS.
The institute. a relatively
young organization, has pro-
crossed from a $1,250,000 APP
preparation in 1852 to a $2l.3
million appropriation for the
current fiscal year.
OF its many broad scale COL
laborative Investigations, one
of the most significant is the
attack on the relatively un-
known prenatal period of life.
There is good reason to be-
lieve. researchers say. that dis
orders arising during pregnancy
are responsible for the death
of about one fourth of the
babies conceived in this coun-
