Then tho Badgers wont out and polished off Pitt to earn the right to battle Washington State hi the NCAA finals at Kansas City. They won 39 to 34 and thus become intercollegiate champs of Add to this the fact that the Oshkosh All Stars won the national professional title with Sheboygan and Kenosha, also Wisconsin teams, finishing second and third and you know what I mean-when I say Wisconsin has succeeded Indiana as the center of basketball genius in the nation. * Musings?Off to Columbia to make ? i ? - -i . -v aV.x- ??f nitt. uie r&gumr iwvrwccao ~ lets of publicity, the press and radio groups.'

Notice that I mention the place as "West Allis* and not Milwaukee. For West Allis is the location of tho Allls-Chambers plant which has a $45,000,000 defense contract. West Allis is a community largely populated 'by Germans and it looks to me as' if the old Hitler propaganda and sabotage forces are really going places in stirring up this strike. 1 BEFORE PURCHASING Flower, Garden and Field See.ds SEE OUR LARGE ASSORTMENT W?

NICHOLSON 934 Broad Street > ETERNAL VIGILANCE KEEPS DOWN TUBERCULOSIS CASES1 Thero's encouraging newt* from 31 slutes regarding tuberculosis. In (ho first ?ix months of 1940 the dreaded disease killed 1,8 i>or font fewer peoplo than it did during the corresponding period of 1939, according to the preliminary figures received by tho United States Public Health Service. Wo naked a statistics in to give moaning To that figure-1.8 per cent. And it means, in terms of life and death, that more than 1,000 persons were alive at the end of 1940, who wonld have been dead had not the unii-tuborculoeia campaign in this country gained ground from where it was in 1939. We saw f?x>m complete mortality tables this steady, yoar-by-year udvance against the disease. In 1911 tuborcul^ils was the leading cause of death. Now, for the population as a whole, it is in the seventh place as cause of death. So we've made, and aro still making, progress but we're a long way from having wiped out tuberculosis. When the complete figures for 1940 are in, we'll find out that, although hundreds of Uvea were saved during the year, tuberculosis Htlll kills more persons between 15 and 45 yearn of age than any other, cause of death. - The 1939 figures show that tubercu | losls killed Someone In this country I every eight and one-half minutes. When tho 1940 figures are llual we cannot hope for even a half-minute of ! grncc. Undoubtedly, we'll find tuberl culosis killed one person every eight and three-quarters minutes throughout tho entire year. | . The surest weapon we have against ??ue of our oldest enemies is early diagnosis. Throughout the month of April tho Kershaw county tuberculosis association Is making every effort to highlight this "weapon" by holding a special Early Diagnosis Campaign with * an intensive educational program. The association is trying to mnke us understand how to save lives?-perhaps our lives. This effort deserves our closest attention. Complacency and Indifference on our part regarding tuberculosis inevitably manifest themselves in lost iires?perhaps our lives. We can be free of tuberculsls, but our freedom is not Just going-to. happen '.'Internal vigilance is the price of liberty"?that truth is particularly applicable to such a highly infectious and Insidious disease as tuberculosis, which can be In an advanced stage before symptoms appear.
