School Reporter and art editor, Glendolyn GalL meier. -M.H.S.— There is much discussion around the hall of MHS about tests — a big chemistry test, civics test, or maybe an algebra test. These tests assure the students that they are already in the full swing of the school year and must start studying very hard to make good grades. —M.H.S.— Unintentionally left out of last week’s column was the fact that Monmouth has a new school secretary. Miss Karen Schaefer was hired to fill this position. The students and faculty extend to Karen a big welcome. —M.H.S.— Rehearsals for “A Lucky Penny,” the senior class play, require a great deal of the seniors’ free time. With practices three or four nights a week, the seniors have found that they have a arther difficult schedule. The experience, however, is worth the ‘‘midnight oil.” Each and every senior hopes that you have marked October 3 and 4 on your calendar to attend “A Lucky Penny.” —M.H.S.— “Should I get a stone in my ring or not?” That was the big Question which confronted the juniors in the selection of their class rings. The rings have been ordered and now comes the waiting period until the rings arrive. The sophomores, also, are anticipating the tjme when they may order their class sweaters and jackets. - M.H.S.— “What will I have to wear?” “What will I have to do?” These are the worried thoughts of the freshmen because the night for initiation is nearing. The date has been set for Friday, and the time is 7:30 p.m. in the school gymnasium. The seniors have picked a committee consisting of Kay Bultemeyer, Joan Fleming, Nyla Girod. Larry Hoffman, and Whity Schaefer for the program for that certain night. Look out, freshmen! —M.H.S.— “Bad luck comes in three's,” might be the slogan of the baseball team. A week ago the team lost its third game to Decatur Catholic by a margin of one run. It is hoped that the next game will be a winner. —M.H.S.— Seems as if this past week has been a week of meetings and elections. The FHA had their organization meeting Monday, after school. The election of officers is as follows: president. Joan Fleming; vice president, Joyce Busick; sec-

The meeting was adjourned after light refreshments were served. —M.H.S.— Wednesday night the Monmouth band marched in the Bluffton parade. By the time this column was due, the results of the contest were unknown. But the students are hoping that the band will bring some honors, in marching, home .to MHS. —M.H.S.— « : PLEASANT MILLS HIGH By'Marie Ohler

subscribe to many popular magazines at lowest prices, and with 1 guaranteed service. Central’s jun- ! iors and seniors will earn, through ! these magazine sales, liberal com- 1 missions for their annual senior i trips, and their customers will en- ; joy the benefits of better reading, i So, if you are in the market for i some good reading material (almost any subject imaginable) or if you would just like to help pro- i rhote these educational trips, get ; in touch with any junior or senior < at Adams Central. Sales end September 26, so better hurry and order! : - A.C.H.S.— Selling is more fun if you’re in competition, so that’s why there are four teams selling magazines out of the junior and senior classes. Captains of these teams are Dixie Smith and Twila Arnold, juniors; and Shirley Osterman and Tom Heyerly, seniors. Jerry Gerber is the business manager. —A.C.H.S.— Os course, where there’s competition, there are prizes! And there are plenty of nice awards for any salesman willing to work for them.

Good luck, Jeanie! , -A.C.H.S.— Arlene Zimmerman, Carol Haggard, Marcia Zimmerman, and Jeannie Smith are Central’s 1958-59 varsity cheerleaders. These four were chosen from the many girls who tried out last week. All of these girls were capable of cheerleading responsibilities but not everyone was able to win. —A.CH.S.— For the first time in the history of Adams Central basketball, reserve cheerleaders are going to be chosen. This was decided to relieve the varsity cheerleaders of so much rsponsibility and because

Only Association Os Smoking, Cancer Genetics Professor Voices His Views By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor NEW YORK (UPD—According to Sir Ronald A. Fisher, you can take the statistics which are said to show cigaret smoking can cause lung cancer and make just as good a case for a supposition that inhaling cigaret smoke will help prevent lung cancer. Sir Ronald's is a respected voice in world science. He is professor of genetics at Cambridge University and often is called "the father of modern statistics.” His view, repeatedly stated, is the statistics show only an "association” between cigaret smoking and lung cancer but fall far short of showing one causes the other. Newly challenged by scientists who believe “cause” has been statistically proven, he has now returned to the argument. His scientific opponents should also believe "the practice of drawing smoke in bulk into the lungs” has “a protective effect,” he said, since the same statistics show

smokers among lung cancer patients are less likely to be inhalers than healthy smokers. Sees Other Cause* "To believe either is, however, to rpn the risk of failing to recognize, and therefore, failing to prevent, other and more genuine causes,” he continued. For instance, what are the hereditary, influences on both the development of cigaret smoking and of lung cancer in any given individual? It is an unanswerable question at the present stage of knowledge. But the science of genetics contends ancestral genes can form any individual in such away he is susceptible both to cigaret smoking and lung cancer. In a previous round of the argument, Sir Ronald some statistics on identical twins as opposed to “fraternal” twins. Identical twins develop from the same fertilized egg and their ancestral patterns are identical, but fraternal twins develop from separate eggs and they can be as unlike in heredity as brothers resulting from separate births. These statistics showed the identical twins were very much alike in their smoking habits whereas fraternal twins were not. • '— ———————— It’s easy for shallow people to get iton deep water.
