training, including long hikes and drills in hand-to-hand combat daily. ■ A series of “toughening up” exercis-. s, to prepare them for long periods of fighting without much rest, is also part of the program.

BOSSE STATE CHAMPS

VONCASTLE - MONDAY & TUESDAY

EVANSVILLE, March 20 (UP) Bosse's state high school basketball champions were welcomed at a school assembly today and then prepared to plunge into a two-week round as guests of honor at banquets given by civic clubs and other organizations. The Bulldogs took the championship Saturday at Indianapolis with victories over LaPorte, 41-38, and Kokomo, 39-35. The team, accompanied by Mayor Maison Reichert, did not arrive in Evansville until late Sunday afternoon having been slowed in its trip by icy highways. But once arrived, the players were bundled aboard a fire truck and paraded through the downtown sector, while hundreds of f ins braved the storm to accompany them. Then the team and fans went to Bosse's auditorium where Principal Carl Eifler introduced the players as a feature of the short and impromptu celebration.

Testing was supervised by Purdue University, in cooperation with TinHolstein - Friesian Association of America.

INVENTION FOLLOWS REMARK CHICAGO (UPI The thoughtless remark made by a physician in Indianapolis has led to invention of a device which may prove of inestimable help to disabled veterans of this war, according to the Journal of the American Medical Association. Dr. John R. Brayton, writing to the editor, discloses how he told a

one-armed patient to wash his hand. ^ The patient replied, “I can't. As a result, Dr. Brayton has of- j fered to manufacturers a simple device consisting of two vacuum cups fastened to the back of a brush. The one-armed person fastens the brush above any wash stand and washes by rubbing his hand back and forth on it. MASS BEHAVIOR AFFECTED BY PRICE LEVELS STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (UP) The public's behavior js definitely affected by rising prices, according to Dr. M. E. John, urofessor of rural sociology at the Pennsylvania State College.

In some ways, the .chances are good and in other ways they ai\ bad. Divorces increase when prices rise, he pointed out, while suicide and deaths from alcoholism decline. When the price level rose sharply from 1914 to 1920, the divorce rate Increased from 110 to 180 per 100,000 people. In contrast, divorces declined from 168 to 128 per 100,000 when prices droppe d in 1929. Increased prices from 1932 to 1935 pushed' the figures up again from 128 to 171. “There are two explantions," D*\ John said. "In depressions, many people who want a divorce can’t afford it, and hard times often bring a husband and wife into closer harmony.”
