To The Editor:

This week several mothers have been having an interesting time working at the fluoride clinic Tn school. Several hundred children were given new tooth brushes and taught how to brush their teeth properly. Detailed instruction was given in what foods to eat and what to avoid in order to have good teeth.
 Then mothers who had been in structed by Dr. Packard cleaned the children's teeth as they sat in the dental chair. Next their teeth were examind by Dr. Packard and records made of their condition. The last step was painting the teeth with fluoride by Monica Hunt, the dental assistant, who was helped by the mothers.
 It is a sad situation to find so many children who have only de- cayed brown stumps for teeth when there has been a dentist stationed here for years who is anxious to repair that decayed spot when it is small. We beg the Parents to take the children to the dentist early. Teeth are to keep.
 As mothers we sincerely thank pr Packard for his efforts to inn prove this unbelievable condition.

Letters to The Editor
Nov. 5, 1863
To The Editor:

To The Editor:
 In behalf of the people of Bar row I wish to convey my thanks to those people of Alaska who contributed so generously with food and clothing after the recent floods at Barrow. Your contribu- tions came at a time when they were badly needed and could not have been timed more appro- priately.
 Most of the homes that were de- stroyed and damaged have been repaired and moved and few are still undergoing repairs. Outside of the properties that were washed away and have to be retrieved by Spring, everything is back to normal.
 I would like also to thank those communities and business and service people who spent so much time and money to lend a helping hand to the people of Barrow and I would like to list them:
 Anchorage people for food and clothing;
 Kenai people for clothing sent;
 Homer people for clothing sent; 
 Nome people for clothing sent;
 ELM, Anchorage, for, flying in clothing and food.
 Wiens Airlines for making many flights carrying food and clothing, also for pioneering the service ability of the half completed air strip which proved to be the most important landing field in the State at the moment.
 Also to be highly commended is the General Construction Company for cooperating to the extent that many man hours of construction were lost at their own expense, to accommodate the necessary traffic.
 Too numerous to mention are individuals, and both State and Federal agencies who fell in line side by side in cooperative ef- fort to alleviate the hardships suf- fered by the people of Barrow for which we are very grateful. Again thank you for job we'll done.

Marshall 6. Bennett Named Finance
Chmn. OF Boy Scouts OF America

Marshall G.. Bennett has
been named Chairman of the
Annual Finance Campaign of
the Andrew Jackson Council,
Boy Scouts of America in
Tchula. Mr.. Benefits appoint
ment was announced today
by Ben Weiner of Kosciusko,
district chairman of the drive.
October I'll has been de-
signated as Support Scout
ing Week" and every effort
will be made to complete the
campaign in one day.
Conducted entirely by vol
unteers from the commune
ties in the Andrew Jackson
Council, the campaign is be-
ing held on a Council-wide
basis with a total of $685. 900
to be raised during the drive.
Campaign workers point out
that every dollar given goes
directly to the Scouting Pro-
gram and ninety-nine per-
cent stays in the Council
area to provide administra-
ton, field service and orga-
nization, camping facilities
and activities for the 465
Cub Packs. Scout Troops and
Explorer Units in the An
drew Jackson Council.
In accepting the chairman
ship, Mr.. Bennett said,
"The worthiness of the pro-
gram of the Boy Scouts of
America and what it has con-
tributed to the boys of this
area and the rest of Ameri-
ca is well known to all of
our thinking Citizens. The
Andrew Jackson Council now
has a membership of over
10000 boys and some 800
adult leaders. There are thou
sands of boys who want to
be Scouts. Many of them are
not members because the
Council has not been able to
organize the troops and train
the necessary volunteer lead
ers. Never before has there
been a greater need for
young people to appreciate
fully the American Way of
Life, and if more boys of this
area CO ld have the benefits
of Scout Training, we would
have a better community in
the years ahead. Therefore,
I am confident that the citi-
zens of Tchula will give gen.
erously to the Boy Scout
Movement in October"

Sullivan ran the ball back
deep in Drew territory and
moments later scored on
10-yard run. Harold Devine
ran the extra point.
Drew came back strong in
the second period scoring
twice on runs of four and two
yards. Only one extra point
was gained in two attempts
Late in the second period
just before the half ended, a
pass from Devine to Shelton
Rogers was good for a I'D
In the try for the alI-import-
ant extra point the ball was
fumbled and rolled into the
end zone. Alton Parker, cen
ter, recovered it for the ex.
ira = and in this case win
ming point of the game.
The halftime score was a.
Is and the second half of the
game was a purely defensive
contest.
There were thrills aplenty
however, for partisans OF
both sides.
Near the end of the game
Drew had the ball and a first
down on Lexington's 10-yard
line The Eagles ran four
times but the Hornets, play
ing their best defensive
brand of ball, held and took
over on their own two as the
game ended.
Best Game"
Coach Earle said the Drew
contest was "Lexington's best
game so far" and he was real
ly proud of their defensive
play. An indication of this
was the fact that Hobson,
leading scorer for the big
Delta Valley Conference Of
which Drew is a member,
was held scoreless.
Lexington played the Sc
cond half without the serv,
ices of Sullivan who turned
his ankle in the second. No
bones were broken and he
will see service against Kill

win, they outplayed u.s."
Earle said he was mighty
proud of his own boys be.
