Experts Report Facts On Use 01 Insecticides There is no need to become al armed over the poisonous nature of some of the new insecticides if they are used as directed and in tended, in the opinion of Dr. E. W. Constable, state chemist. "Most of the hug-killers contain poisonous substances," lie said, "and some of the old familiar ones especially those containing such substances as lead, arsenic, fluorine and nicotine, are highly dangerous. We have been using Ihetn for many years, however, and W'ith a mini- Reminding You That Our ENTIRE STOCK OF HOES 1REDUCED SO W Lots - This Is Our Regular Stock From wth Our Big Shoe Departments Shoes Fitted With Aid Of X-Ray The Largest Stock Eyer Shown By Us. Save On Shoes At 'Home of Better Values' mum of mishaps. j "Unfortunately, lack of under standing of the character of some of the new insecticides often gives rise to unnecessary concern and, sometimes, results in the spread of rumors that have little foundation in fact." Federal authorities, Dr. Con stable said, fyeep a watchful eye on new economic poisons and, when circumstances justify, they are quick to issue public warnings regarding their use. He pointed out that the United State", Department of Agriculture had recommended against the use of DUT on dairy cajtle and on fruits and vegetables going into baby foods. "This does not mean, however, that DDT is a hazard to public health in general, if properly used. It has been found that it is asorb ed by cattle and the residues can be transmitted to human beings through milk. These residues may have some harmful effects, espec ially in the case of small children wholly dependent on milk and baby foods for sustenance; yet we do not know of any generally injurious effects from DDT among children. Caution is urged, however, just to be on the safe side." "While scientists do not know all they would like to about the new poisons such as DDT, benzene hexachloride, chlorda,ne, toxaphene and TDE, they are constantly checking their effects on man and beast and soil. Whenever injurious ball being what it is today effects are indicated the public is notified by federal agencies. "Usually the residues from in secticides, while they may be poi sonous, are small enough so that they are not harmful to human beings. Use the Want Ads for Results Dan Watkins, Sr., of Waynesville and Phil Kinken of Canton, were appointed co-chairmen of a Hay wood county committee last night to campaign for funds to aid N. C. State College athletes. The selections were made at the regular monthly dinner meeting at the Town House by Haywood Alumni Club President Henry Seainan of Canton. Other mem bers will be appointed to ttie com mittee soon. The action followed talks by State College's new athletic direc tor, Roy Clogstori, and Allen Nelms, of Raleigh, an officer of the col lege's Wolfpack Club, before ap proximately 35 State College grad uates Who live in Haywood. Both men Indicated the neces sity for alumni support for State's expanding athletic program. The Wolfpack Club, Mr. Nelms explained. Sponsors the State Col lege Student Aid Association, the school's source of help for deserv ing athletes. pdt State is somewhat particu lar "about the sort' of athletes it wants he Indicated fast with the textjjooks and in the labs as well as on the football field. "We are looking for the better type boy,'1 he told the alumni, "one who Is good in his school work as well as In athletics. "Things have changed. If we can get your cooperation, we'll have a good program." Discussing the operation of the club, he said: "We're not copying the plan at tChajel hi$ (North Carolina's Edu catibhaJ foundation), but we're fol lowing it because it's the most sensible way of accomplishing our purpose, to reach you fellows (alumni)." Under the system of organiza tion, members of local committees would personally contact graduates in their local areas for contribu tions to the club. Dan Watkins, a former State College football player, later told the audience that, "modern foot- we ve got to have money" to help the athletes. After painting an optimistic picture of Slate College athletics, Mr. Clogston also told the alumni, the school is looking not only for a good athlete but the right kind of good athlete. "When we meet the boy, we ask: 'what kind of fellow is he?' We want good students, not Just ath letic bums, to make State second to none. "We're out to win and to win in the right way." The fundamental tenure in the talks was that State College's ath letic fortunes were entering a new stage and heading for a higher level in both major and minor sports, but thai it would take the solid support and cooperation of the alumni to reach the ambitious goals. The speakers indicated clearly that State's aim is for a perfectly balanced program of athletics, both intercollegiate and intramural. In introducing the athletic di rector, Mr. Watkins sounded the keynote when he said: "In recent years, things appar ently haven't gone too veil. At times it looked like we had good material at State but It didn't pah out. "Last year, a new director was appointed. And he's really clean ed up from top to bottom, bottom to top." Howard Clapp, secretary of the Haywood Alumni Club, added a bright touch to the financial aspect of the picture, for the college as a whole. He pointed out the sub stantial appropriations which the 1949 General Assembly allocated to the school for permanent im provements, explaining the figures, item by item.
