CREOMULSION for Cpughs.OfMt Co Ids , B r p n c h j t i i High School Cagers Lost To Morganton Kings Mountain high school cagers journeyed to MQrganton on January 20th and the Moun taineers put up a whale of a scrap before dropping to the favored home-towners by a score of 38 to 31. The Mountaineereties dropped the opener by a count of 43 to 26.' The boys game was athriller, with the Mountaineers jumping off from a first quarter 8- all deadlock to lead at half-time by 15 to 9. The Morgan to h boys had the height, however, and controlled the rebounds during the last two periods. Third quarter score was 25-20 favor Morganton. Center Steve Jones led the Mountaineer attack with five buckets and three free throws for a total of 13 points. Guard Stratton led the Morgan ton attack with six goals and a free toss for 13 points.

While the expectation of life at birth was approximate ly 40 years in 1850, it is nearly 70 years (oday. The .greater part of the gains have been the result of reduced mortality In infancy and early childhood, Chiti Gains in Early Lite. "Not only is the increased life span noticeable at birth, but all through childhood and up to mid dle life," the Institute comment ed. "At age 20, the inateased ex pectation of lUe today, compared with J.850, is abouj 10 years; at age 40 it is about 5 years. By the time age 60 is reached, the benefits of medical advances and better living have Just about run out, so that the expectation of life at ages beyond that is little different from that of 100 years ago. But the current emphasis in a large pqrt of medical research such as that aided by the Life Insurance Medical Research Fund is on diseases which take the greatest toll at the more advan ced ages. If the achievements of the past century at the younger ages is only partially paralleled in the efforts at the older ages, the 1950 babies can look forward to added expectancy at even the advanced ages. Many More "Aged" * "The past century's nealth ad vances in the United States, ad ding materially to the lives sav ed, in infancy, childhood and ear ly life, harve added greatly to the number of persons at or. over re tirement age today. Many mil lions more are today on the threshold of 'old- age" than in pre vious generations and ttie aged are increasing at a greater rate than total population. Those 66 and over numbered only slightly over half a million in 1850; today they number more than 11,000, 000. Wftile the population has. in creased nearly seven times, jrhOrte 65 and over have increased \9 times. In just r.he past decade Some 2,000,000 have been added t to the rolls anil those 65 years of age or more. "It is only natural, therefore, that millions pi persons have turned to lifeinsurance as a base for their retirement planning as well as for their family protec tion during the earlier years. The great bulk of the large volume of retirement in?-ome life insur ance has been purchased in the past 25 or 30 years! And while annuities have been written throughout the lifetime of the life insurance business, it is in the past 30 years that they have had their major development. Today, there are nearly four mil. lion annuity contracts outstand ing representing V*sent.or event ual annual income of well over a billion doilars. Actual current payments under these annuities are nearly a quarter of a billion ddllars. Only 30 years ago, these J annuity payments were ie.?is than ! ten million dollars annually. ' "As the country turns into the i new bXlf century, there ij* even! greater interest in pension plan j ning. There will prufrably be a ! great Increase in the numbers or t persons covered by pension plans j in the years ahead.
