Auto Crash Hurts Need Extra Skill, Says Doctor Fractures More Numerous and More Serious Due to Speed, Tennessee Professor Declares. Improved methods of treating compound fractures are necessary because higher speed and increased number of automobiles have made such injuries more prevalent and more serious, according to Dr. Willis C. Campbell, professor or orthopedic surgery at the University of Tennessee.

Addressing the final full day’s session of the Indiana University School of Medicine’s post-graduate course last night, Dr. Campbell said the soft tissues surrounding the bone is damaged so badly in today’s compound fracture that treatment is difficult. "Today’s high-powered automobiles naturally cause more severe injuries than in the old horse and buggy days,” he said, “particularly in the case of fractures of the bone of the upper arm. More and more of these fractures are so severe in their damage to tissue, muscle and nerve cells that they can not be united by usual methods.” Dr. Campbell said he recommended a method of his devising which consists of grafting a piece of bone from the patient’s leg, making tiny “bone nails” of a portion of the piece, and then pegging it along the arm bone, over the fracture, with the “bone nails.” PNEUMONIA DEATH RATE CUT IN HALF Figures Fall From 32 to 17, Morgan Says.

Although scarlet fever cases have dropped from the March peak of 203 cases, there have been 60 cases reported this month, board statistics showed.

BUTLER U. FRAT COUNCIL QUITS * President Explains Group’s Losing Struggle. The Butler University InterFraternity Council today had passed out of existence. It lost a struggle, dating from 1932, to take the “cutthroat” system out of rushing and pledging. Selfish political disagreements among campus fraternal organizations groping for power brought an end to the council, Mark Decker, president, said. “It shows an utter disregard on the part of some organizations for the purpose of the council and a deplorable lack of interest. No more meetings will be called,” Mr. Decker explained. The council had met death and been revived several times during the four-year period. For the reorganization this year, three of the six campus organizations responded. Lambda Chi Alpha, Phi Delta Theta and Kappa Delta Rho sent delegates.
