In leading medical centers throughout the country young pa tients are responding temporarily to drug treatment in 90 per cent of cases today, the ACS says. In 1946 the remissions (disappearance of symptoms) occurred only 10 per cent of the time Cagers win one, lose another The Newberry College Cagers were stumped by the High Point College Panthers 63-46 last Thursday, but played an explosive game to defeat Mars Hill College 80-60 Saturday. Newberry set the pattern for the Mars Hill game early pull ing out to an 11-2 lead early in the contest. The tribe held the Lions for 4:30 without a field goal as forward Bill Sulli van went to wort; frorti the key to score five buckets. Newberry led 48-37 at intermission never to relinquish it for the remain der of the game. Sullivan finished the game with 15 points to lead the ba lanced Newberry attack. Paul Sherman added 14 and Joe Styles and Tommy Meadows had 13 each. It was a different tune in High Point. N.C. however as the Panthers led by John Kirk- man downed the Indians 67-57. The North Carolina squad trail ed at halftime 25-24 but broke the game wide open midway through the second half behind the outside shooting of Phil Butler who finished the game with 13 points. Newberry stands now 7-9 for the season, 0-3 in the Caro lina’s Conference and 3-1 in NAIA District six. 21,000 drivers lose license Driver licenses of nearly 21,- 000 South Carolinians were sus pended during the last half of 1970, according to the State Highway Department. Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants brought about the largest number of suspensions in any one category. The De partment reported that from July 1 through December 31 a total of 8,471 persons lost their licenses to drive for this vio lation. The next most frequent li cense suspension cause during the period was violation of the state’s safety responsibility law. There were 4,064 persons who fell into this category. The safety responsibility law says, in essence, that if a person be comes involved in a traffic ac cident for which he cannot show proof of ability to pay damages then his driving privileges will be taken away. The third greatest cause for license suspensions was the Point System law. A driver loses his license after an ac cumulation of 12 demerit oints for various traffic law viola tions and there were 3,279 sus pensions for this cause during the six-month period. Two charges of reckless driv ing caused 452 persons to lose their driving privileges while 4,722 suspensions were for va rious other infractions. The age group drawing the “lion’s share” of suspensions was the 17 to 29 year-old in dividuals. This group accounted for 9,456 of the total. The 40 years old and up came in for the second largest total, 4,502. Following closely was the 30 to 39 year olds with 3.960. The group with the smallest num ber, 2,706, was the 14 to 16 year olds.
