Teach Children
Cleanliness Aids
Against Infection

If you prepare in advance
for childhood mishaps, your
worries over family health and
safety will diminish consider
ably.
Here are a few basic first
aid procedures that will help
keep minor miShaps from be-
coming major medical prob
lens.
o Cleanliness is of primary
importance. Wounds must be
treated promptly, but be sure
your own hands have been
washed thoroughly. Medical re-
ports indicate that almost 80
per cent of all disease germs
that cause infection enter the
body via the hands.
. Remove all foreign sub
stances from the cut or abra-
sion. Include a germicidal soap
among your list of cleansing
tools. It's nti-bacterial quail
ties will help combat infection
the moment you start first-aid
procedures.
. Apply approved antisep-
tic medication to the wound
and the skin area Immediately
surrounding it. Make sure that
the covering (gauze or band
age) is sterilized.
o Wash the wound and
change dressings as often as
necessary until the wound has
healed. This may have to be
done several times a day.

It's one of the sad facts OF
teen life that just when a ga
begins to care about her APP
pearance, skin olemisheS often
pom up. And it's no consolation
that about rs per cent of her
friends have the same problem.
Because of the unhappiness
acne may cause, it should be
treated properly. Fortunately,
the less complicated cases US
ually respond quickly to thor
ough cleaning and good health
practices.
Here are a few tips on how
& maturing teen can combat
acne before it becomes COM
plicated:
Wash the face often = at
least three times a day - to
retard acne and one of its
causes, excessive oiliness. Use
a clean washcloth each time,
unless you prefer the fingertip
method. A mild deodorant soap
with ~antiseptic ingredients
will help by removing the bac-
terra that cause blemishes to
spread.
Avoid touching the face with
your hands, except when wash
ing.
Don't use heavy makeup.
Cosmetics can clog the pores
and promote blackheads.
Shampoo twice a week, or
more often if necessary, to re-
move dandruff and oilineSs.
Get plenty of sleep. Eight

hours should be the minimum.
Exercise everyday, out-of-
doors when possible.
Drink at least four glasses
of water daily.
Avoid greasy or extra sweet
foods. Chocolate, nuts, seafoods
soft drinks, fried foods and
pastries can be troublemak-
ers.
Before using commercial
creams or lotions, get advice
from your doctor. Some of
these products are good, some
are ineffective, and some are
actually harmful.
For most teens, following
these tips faithfully for two
or three months will lead to a
clearer, more attractive COM
plexion. Whatever you do,
don't try cures other than
normal cleansing. If this does
not seem to help, see your
doctor. He has treatments that
may help, but which require
medical supervision.

Reasonable
Use of Force

District teachers and prin-
cipals will be backed without
reservation" in keeping order
by reasonable force" when
necessary, School Supt. Carl F.
Hansen said today.
However, DR.. Hansen made
clear in a staff circular today
that this means using a firm
hand short of the use Of cor
poral punishment" The Board
Of Education last week voted to
keep its rule against such pun
ishmeent.
The word sent to the field
reaffirmed that in emergency
situations demanding disci-
pline, reasonable force may
include such actions taking a
pupil by the arm or coat lapel
to propel him in q desired di-
rection after pointed opposi-
ton to authority or direct dis
obedience"
DR.. Hansen defined permis-
sible force as that (which a
reasonable person would deem
necessary" to straighten out a
disciplinary emergency caused
by a student.
In addition, the circular said,
other means of enforcement a
teacher may use with full sup
port Of the administration in
clude isolating a pupil, keeping
him after school, or denying
him ordinary privilege.
Furthermore, DR.. Hanse n
said, teachers and principals
can suspend an unruly pupil
from class temporarily or per-
manently as the case justifies. "
The school board last week
moved to approve indefinite
suspension instead Of outright
dismissal for incorTigibles.
DR.. Hansen said measures
may include calling police, con-
sultation with parents, "or any
other steps deemed necessary
in the judgment Of the prin-
cipal and teachers"
Some Of the measures in to-
days circular were recon-
mended in 1860 in a behavior
bulletin" But some teachers
have been uncertain Of exactly
what they can do TO maintain
discipline by force.
Deputy Supt. John M. Riecks
Is heading q committee Of
school officials working on a
full booklet specifying pro-
cedures for discipline. The

The Miksa Merson murder
case went before the United
States Court of Appeals this
morning on pleas by the two
defendants that their convic-
tions be set aside for violations
of the Mallory rule.
The defendants, Wilson M.
Smith, jr., and Raymond Bow
den, said that the United States
District Court trial improperly
admitted the testimony Of an
eyewitness to the slayings.
Smith was convicted Of felony
murder and given life imprison-
ment on the first degree murder
conviction. Bowden, who was
convicted of robbery, was COM
mitted for nine years as a
youthful offender.
MIR. Merson, a 65-year-old
pianist and teacher, was found
lying brutally beaten in the
District on March 3, 1862. Po-
lice said he had been robbed
of money and valuables total
ing SIG.
Police picked up Smith on
suspicion. held him for three
days while questioning him be-
fore taking him before @ magis-
trate. Bowden had been picked
up twice and questioned for
long periods Of time.

excludes from criminal trial
evidence, confessions and other
evidence obtained during police
questioning If the period Of
interrogation lasts for long
without presenting the defend
ants to a committing magis-
trate-charged with warning
them Of their rights.
There is no question by the
defense that both Smiths and
Bowden's original confessions
were correctly excluded from
the trial before District Court
Judge Luther w. Youngdahl.
1t is also conceded that the
disclosure that there was an
eyewitness was obtained from
both Smith and Bowden dur
ing the detention before ar
raignment.
The defense claimed that
Philip Holman's testimony was
"the fruit Of the poisonous
tree in line with a recent
Court Of Appeals opinion which
barred the Government from
taking advantage Of facts dis
closed in illegally obtained con-
fessions.

court today was composed OF

D. G. Section
OF FreeWuy
Opens Soon

The District is planning to
open a nine-block section of
the Southwest freeway in June,
officials said today.
Traffic now has to leave the
freeway at Ninth street S.W.
After two temporary roadways
are built, traffic can enter or
leave at ramps between Second
and First streets S.W.
Eastbound traffic also will
be able to continue to a down
ramp at South Capitol street.
Truck traffic coming down
Third street will be able to
come over c street S.W. to the
temporary roadway to reach
the freeway. The old truck
route wound through the COM
plex of Government buildings
along Independence avenue
S.W. and the new route is ex-
pected to improve traffic flow
for this area.
The District will widen c
street between Third street and
the temporary roadways, to
make c street four lanes.
The temporary roadways will
be built by District construc-
ton crews to save time that
otherwise would be spent on
advertising for bids on a con-
tract.
Work on the temporary road
ways is expected to start in
May. The "downramp" at South
Capitol street is a permanent
structure. and has been under
construction for several months.
District officials think the
roadways should be ready
around June /, but caution
that bad weather may upset
this timetable.
The temporary roadways will
be in use until the proposed
Center Leg Freeway is con-
structed further north. This
freeway is to be built between
Second and Third streets NV,
and will go under the Mall in
a tunnel.
The latest completion date
for the Center Leg freeway is
mid-l966. but this is expected
TO change because of delays.
The next section Of the
freeway is not expected to be
opened until 1t is completed to
Sixth street Sc. in 1865.

Zoning regulations now ban

ton is granted.
Single Family Area
The Fulbright bill would
close off single family dwelling
areas to chanceries and allow

to exercise its discretion about
exceptions in the other two
types of home neighborhoods.

ought to fix one set Of stand
ards for a single family area
and another for less posh dis

who argued for the Govern
ment that the convictions
should stand.
The Government agreed that
both Smiths and Bowden's
statements prior to their pre-
liminary hearing were not
admissible. During this period
both men identified a man
known to them as Red" who
they said was an eyewitness
to the homicide.
Witness Picked Up
Mr.. Acheson said that the
police checked out the identi-
fication and picked up Hol-
man, who testified at the
trial that he had seen Smith
beat Merson to death on March
8, 1862, after he left his auto
mobile parked on the 2300
block of Ashmeade place NV.
He said that Bowden ran
across the street and helped
take the money and other
articles from Merson's body.
The defense attorneys told
the court that Mr.. Holman
would never have been dis
covered had it not been for
the statements made by the
two defendants during the
question period being pro-
tested.
Mr.. Acheson argued that the
direct connection between
Smiths and Bowden's state
ments on the one hand and
Mr.. Holman, on the other, was
so slight as to not fall within
the prohibition.
Both the Government and
the defense frequently referred
to the Killough case. There,
the Court Of Appeals held that
a confession made after a pre-
liminary hearing was so influ-
enced by a prior period OF
illegal questioning that it could
not be admitted into evidence
although there was no question
that the defendant gave the
second confession voluntarily
and with full knowledge that
he had been told Of his rights
by a magistrate.
