State Blue Cross
Rates u. s. Lowest
Hospital Room Rates At Same
Time Are Among Highest

A survey of Blue Cross rates
and hospital charges in neighbor-
ing cities and in other parts Of
the country shows that Delaware
Blue Cross rates are the lowest
and that hospital room rates here
are among the higher reported by
the American Hospital Association.
The results were announced by
Robert C. Denzler, assistant man
aging director of Group Hospital
Service, who said it is possible
for Delaware to have low Blue
Cross rates and high hospital
rates at the same time because
Delaware Blue Cross members are
more conservative in their use
of hospital service. If hospital US
age here were to rise, Delaware
would soon lose its position as
the state with the lowest Blue
Cross rates, he said.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
My courageous word spoken for
Christ today may transform some
ones life.
Flag Day, June 14th
Your flag and my flag
And, oh how much it holds.
Your land and my land,
Secure within its folds.
Your heart and my heart
Beat quicker at the sight;
Sun-kissed and wind tossed,
Red and blue and white.
The one flag, the great flag, the
flag for me and you.
GlOrified all else beside
the red and white and blue.
Your flag and my flag
To every star and strife
The drums beat as hearts beat
And filters shrilly fife.
Your flag and my flag
A blessing in the sky;
Your hope and my hope
1t never hid a lie.
Homeland and far land and half
the world around;
Old Glory hears our glad salute
and ripples to the sound.

Let Mon Give
Kids A Workout
BY BETTY DIETZ

DAYTON, Ohio(P)-"Instead of
picking up after the kids, let 'em
do a little bending and stretching
of their own. Most women can use
some extra help anyway"
This two-in-one suggestion isn't
based entirely on sympathy for the
housewife. It's an old-fashioned but
sure-fire way to see that tOday's
children get some much-needed ex-
ercise.
Major Robert E. Shirley of the
preventive occupational medicine
services division at Wright-Patter-
son Air Force Base, who helped
set up the current fitness fair
there, insists that household chores
are good for children.
Its that up-and-down business
they need. None of them get.
enough of it," Shirley saws.
TOO MUCH SITTING
The trouble with team sports,
the officer contends, is that only
the 10 or 20 boys on the field get
the exercise.
Everybody else is sitting around
and drinking sweet stuff" he adds.
Parents can and should do much
to increase their children's physi-
cal activities, especially in the
formative pre-school period when
living habits are firmed up"
Don't expect the schools to do
the whole job, he cautions. They've
got enough to do with academic
education.
"Play games with the kids in
stead of telling them to go watch
TV," he says. Shirley suggests de-
veloping a variety of outdoor in
terests, skating, bicycle riding,
swimming, jumping rope. Even the
outdoor picnic is important as we'll
as fun, he adds.
Exercise1
Exercise is essential at all ages,
he points out. If the major had his
way, every American would get 10
or 20 minutes of calisthenics a day.

And if you wait til the muscle

gests several ideas for parents who
want to look after the health of
their 13 and 14-year-olds.
Team sports are good-so are
Boy Scouts or similar activities.
They learn to work together with
out sacrificing their individuality"
Don't forget social activities,
parties. Let 'em jitterbug or square
dance. That'll make them move
around"
Finally, he says, don't neglect
daily push-ups and other calls
thenic classics.
"The worst physical speciments
of all are those x-what-ever-they
were. When they stop, they go to
fat. And that's bad!"

Many details and problems are yet to be dealt with and solved.
 Any adult interested in lbecom- ing a member of CAP. and nelp- ing with this worthy and interest ing organization for the boys and girls of Kodiak are urged to call either Mir. Geriene at phone 6244 or MT. Leonard at phone 4184 any evening. Adult senior members need not necessarily have any aviation experience or education, although it helps.
