DA HERALD, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1915. | ANOTHER WIN FOR " HIGH SCHOOL TEAM Holyoke Boys Are Beaten When Local Eleven Wears Them Out The football team’ representing the New Britain High school, proved it- | self to be one of the right spirit and stuff Saturday afternoon, when they . took the much heavier team of the Holyoke High school into camp in ' a hard fought battle, score 13 to 2. ' The game was won in fourth period when it looked as if the Bay State boys were to annex the victory that the¥ came here confidently certain of. The pluck and courage of the home beys however proved to much for them. There was a good sized crowd on hand when at 2:45 o’clock 2Parker kicked off to the visitors, with the home boys defending the north goal. The visitors immediately be- \gan a series of line plays which brodight the ball past the center of the fleld. Here the local boys re- sponded to the cries of “Hold em New Britain,” and the visitors werc forced to kick. New Britain found the visitors line like a stonewall, putting up a strong defense and Dean was forced to punt after ineffectual attempts to gain- The visitors also found stiff opposition from the home boys and with ball near the thirty- fivé'yard line Steiner dropped ~back for an attempt at a goal from the fleld. The spectators thought with the high winds the visiting toe ar- st would be unsuccessful, but the lid showed himself to be a star at his style of playing for he sent the pigskin squarely between the posts ifor a 3 point tally. From this time until the fourth perfod the eleven men on each team Edwards Heads Herald League—Fight For First Place in City League, The following are the standings of the various teams in bowling leagues at the Aetna alleys and schedules for the week: HERALD LE!\GUE;TANDING. 249 237 244 242 237 230 Tre- Schooners New’tons .

TO DROP PENN STATE. Harvard Will Shunt Alleged “Rough- ers” Off Football Schedule. Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 1.—Penn State will not be found on Harvard’s football schedule next season. Author- itative information to that effect was obtained last night. Harvard players complained that the Penn State men used rought tactics yesterday, and this, coupled with the fact that Penn State is too uniformly strong year after vear, will cause its being dropped Tom Enwright, considered the most dependable halfback at Harvard out- side of Mahan, is again under the do tor’s care. Enwright reopened an old injury Saturday, and will be unable to play before the Yale game. Harte got a bang on the hecad, but will be al- right for Princeton. McKinloék, who is one of the best offensive men, Wwill replace Enwright. He had been out of commission for three weeks, but got into Saturday’'s game. Robinson’s fine work at quarter opened the coaches’ eyes, and if he continues to improve, he will be called to start the Yale game in preference to Watson or Willcox. Robinson is a neat drop kicker also. Quentin Roosevelt, son of the form- er president, was one of the three freshmen selected last night to act as managers of the Harvard 1919 foor- ball team. COOPER WINS AT GOLF. Judge J. E. Cooper with a net score of seventy-four won the medal handicap golf match at the Maple Hill Golf links Saturday afternoon. H. H. Wessell and F. A.

Reeks in Report to State Some of New Britain's needs from | | & health standpoint are outlined 1n= the annual report to the state board of health of Superintendent T. E. Reeks of the local health department. Among the requirements, according to Dr. Reeks, are more tuberculosis nurses. At least three should be employed, Dr. Reeks says. Dr. Reeks points out that the gar- bage collection system is unsatisfac- tory and expresses the hope that the city will soon see fit to take over this important department. The health superintendent also recommends the establishment of a slaughter house to be controlled by the city. The report in full follows: “I i respectfully submit the follow- ing report for the city of New Britain for the year ending October 31, 1915. “The health department has had a year of marked activity owing to fol- lowing the policy outlined in the annual report last submitted to you from this department. ““We have now completed compiling a record of the sanitary condition of nearly every temement house in the city. These records are permanent and prove of great value in our re- investigations. “Our city ordinances have recently been amended by making the sanitary requirements of two family dwellings practically the same as those defined in the state tenement house law. We are, therefore, now making a sys- tematic inspection and record of the sanitary condition of all two-family houses. “It is hardly possible to detail in a brief report the amount of time and energy expended in investigating housing conditions and in rectifying the many unsanitary conditions found. Yet, with but one man devoting his time to this line of work, the resuit of the first year’s work 'is gratifying. The following is a summary of some of the more important orders issued by the board of health, and eomplied with: New toilets installed. .. Tollets repaired ... . Tenements ordered vacated. Sewer connections .... . ‘Water connections ....... Defective plumbing repaired. Cesspools and vaults abolished. . Light and ventilation installed... Yards ordered cleaned Piggeries abolished Rooms replastered, renapered or repainted Dirty walls and ceilings cleaned. . ‘Wells abolished Fly tight manure receptacles in- stalled Contagious Diseases. 188 000 people. ticularly fortunate in having ported. The number of cases of tu- berculosis reported were 68; 14. There were manv cases of per- tussis found unrevorted. Through publicity, the department finally had some success in getting vparents to report any case of whoooing cough existing in the familv to the teach- ers, and the teachers to the board of health. “During the vear the department assumed the work of the Tuberculosis Relief society. We have but one nurse to keep in touch with the many suf- ferers from this 1read disease. Our records show 128 reorted cases during the year. Probably twice as many cases exist in the city. We assist those who are willing but financially unable to go to a sanatorium by pay- ing part or whoie of their expenses. We have in sanatoria, at our expense, an average of ten cases cach month, Three Nurses Needed. “If we hope to make thé money ex- pended in this branch of our depart- ment pay, by reason of conservation of health, then we should put at least three nurses in the field. “We have employed a welfare nurse who visits suspected and known cases of contagicn, and instructs the family in keeping the sick room in as hy- glenic manner as vossible. A part of her duty, of no small importance, is to take nasal and throat cultures of all children in the house in which a case of diphtheria exists. By this method many cases of mild diphtheria are found and kept under strict supervi- ston. “The system established a year ago of obtaining two negative cultures be- fore releasing a case of diphtheria from quarantine has undoubtedly had much to do with keeping down the spread of this disease. Disinfection of Houses. “We have given considerably more time than heretofore, to the disinfec- tion of houses which have been oc- cupled by tubercular subjects. In these instances, we order throuogh renova- tion, including repainting, or white- washing of the rooms occupied. Fol- lowing cases of diphtheria and scarlet fever, we still use formaldehyde (probably because of the need of mo- ral courage to stop it) but depend chiefly on house cleaning, fresh air and sunshine. “A special effort is being made to clean up (or out) unsanitary dairies and sources of milk supply. Also, we are systematizing the inspection of food stores. “The inspection of new plumbing installed has been carried out in paying for the plumbing. “The garbage collection is still far from satisfactory. It is to be hoped that the city will take over this work, considering it a liability to be met in 295 945 8 “The number of contagious diseases has been very low for a city of 655,- The city has been par- but fourteen cases of typhoid fever dur- ing the year. two of which were im- scarlet fever 20; diphtheria 90: tvphoid fever the interest of the P all citizens g Slaughtering Oattle. “The need of closer Supes slaughtering cattle becomes mo gent, and the solution of the mi seems to be in having a mun slaughter house. “There is but one thing stand the way of undertaking much work by the department, and not primarily money but public uf standing and appreciation of work of a health board.
