MIDDLEBURG,IO-9
Inscoe Gets Victory Despite
Constant Bobbling
Afield by Mates
Henderson high school rang down
the curtain on a successful baseball
reason yesterday afternoon at League
Park, whfipping the s/trong Middle
burg high school team 10 to 0 with
Claiborne Inscoe pitching the victory.
Henderson errors flew thick and
fast during the contest, the locals
miscuing eight times to keep pitcher
Inscoe in trouble much of the time.
Middleburg got off to an early lead
scoring five runs in the second inning
that seemed to assure them of victory.
Henderson unlimbered their heavy
artillery in the third and fourth in
nings, scoring five runs in the two
frames io add to their two in the first
inning to pull ahead of the visitors,
and were never headed again.
Turner and Coghill showed the way
for Henderson batters, each getting
three hits. Edwards got two hits, so
did Inscoe, to aid in the scoring.
Henderson lost two games to Roa
noke Rapids, one to Middleburg and
Roxboro, and won the remainder of
their games to bring a fine season to
n close. The hoys had to overcome
many obstacles to have a team, but
they displayed a fine fighting spirit
that carried them to their victories.
Graduation will take seven of the
first nine players this spring.

HOG CHOLERA SCARE
PROVES FALSE ONE
Winton, May 19.—A reported out
break of hog cholera in Hertford
county had Negro farmers greatly
excited.
But W. C. Davenport, colored farm
agent of the State College extension
service, examined the hogs and ren
dered a verdict of “worms.”
The farmers, still somewhat doubt
ful and uneasy, dosed their infected
'hogs according to Davenport’s in
structions. In a few days all were well.
Worms often cause hogs to act as
though they had cholera, Davenport
stated, thus causing needless scares.

The private power companies are
asking an injunction to block PWA

projects scattered through four states.
Ickes told the court he exercised
•the sole power in regard to PWA
policies.
He defined the purpose of PWA as
“fundamentally to put as many men
to work as possible; secondarily, to
stimulate the demand for goods of all

Ickes denied contentions of the pow

Experts Say Health Better
During The Summer Season
If for no other reason, summer will
be most welcomed this year for the
better chances it will bring for escap
ing illness and living more healthful
and happy lives. Last winter was
hard on health. According to the vital
statistics reports issued each month
by the State Board of Health, deaths
from diseases that are more preval
ent in winter or are aggravated by
.cold, weather conditions have been
many more this year than last. Es
pecially has this been true in the
case of influenza, pneumonia, and
tuberculosis. The report for April
issued shows 59 more deaths from in
fluenza, 93 from pemumonia and: 26
from tufcerculo&is than for the same
month last year.
Generally speaking, summer is
more healthful than winter, and it
can be made entirely so, by taking
certain precautions against the usual
•summer diseases. Unlike most win
ter diseases, which are largely af
fected by the severity of the weather,
and 1 about which there seems to be
little one can do for his protection
against them, diseases of hot weather
can be guarded against and summer
made a healthful, happy season for
all.
Babies and young children as a rule
find summer less safe from a health
point of view than older people. But
with a little foresight, energy and
more applied health information, sum
mer can be made as safe for babies
as for older groups. Flies and mos
quitoes can too kept under control, or
at least kept from the baby, and the

mast careful attention given to his
food and water supply, even to the
extent of boiling the water he drinks.
Typhoid fever, which is more pre
valent in summer than in winter, can
be ruled out altogether by vaccina
tion. The spring or early summer is
the best time to take this imnuniz
ing treatment that one may have this
safety not only during the remainder
of the summer but for several years
to come.
Malaria is another summer disease
but one more difficult to handle than
typhoid. The carrier of the inflection,
the Anopheles mosquito, is a peren
nial problem, and yet no vaccine has
been discovered to set up immunity
against the disease. Screening, drain
ing, oiling and filling in swampy
places are advocated as control mea
sures against the mosquito, and treat
ment of the disease under the direc
tion of a physician is persistently
urged.
