Fluorine Effect
On Teeth Subject
Of OSC Research
A new study related to dental
health of Oregon school children
will soon be added to the re
search program being conducted
at Oregon State college.
This time, OSC scientists will
look into the fluorine problem to
determine what effect fluoridiza
tion of public drinking water sup
plies has on the teeth of school
children.
The study will be made by Dr.
Clara A. Storvick, professor of
foods and nutrition, and Dr. De
metrios M. Hadjimarkos, dentist
and associate professor of dental
research.
Observations will be made over
a long period, probably 12 to
14 years, to discover both im
mediate and long-range effects of
fluorine.
The tests will be made in Cor
vallis where fluoridization of city
water is expected to begin in Jan
uary. Dr. Hadjimarkos will exam
ine the teeth of Corvallis school
children just before or immed
iately after fluorine is added to
the water. This will provide a rec
ord of the condition of the chil
dren's teeth before the fluorine
has had an opportunity to do its
work.
Examinations Will Be Made t
.Later examinations will b e
made at regular intervals of
about one year to show the ef
fects of the water-treating pro
gram. Although observations will be
made in onlv one community, re-
suits of the examinations will
be useful throughout Oregon and
the nation, according to Dr. Stor
vick. Similar studies have been
conducted in other parts of the
u. s. but the OSC test will
be the first of its kind In the
Northwest.
The work will be financed by a
special grant from the Oregon leg
islature for dental health re
search. Other projects provided
for by the same grant already
are under way. Included are the
study of regional differences in
tooth decay among Oregon
school children and an investiga
tion of the effects of selen
ium, a trace clement, on the con
dition of the teeth.

Twins Confuse
Chicago Police
CHICAGO VP) Justice tee
tered dizzily yesterday because
neither the arresting officer nor
the judge in auto safety court to
day could tell twin sisters apart.
The 30-year-old twins. Lucille
Lisiecke and Jean Leagh (she
shortened her name), got into a
quarrel in Lucille's auto on Nov. 2.
Police arrested one twin, Lu
cille (they think), and caught
the other after a two mile chase
after the auto. The chasee was
charged with drunken driving, dis
orderly conduct, not having a driv
er's license or city sticker, and
resisting arrest.
In court yesterday, however,
policeman Brett Davies said the
twin who did the driving, Jean
(he thought), was sober.
"Point them out," ordered
Judge William V. Daly.
"I can't tell them apart," an
swered Davies.
Looking at the twin he thought
was Jean, Judge Daly said:
"Jean, I'm going to dismiss the
drunken driving charge but I am
fining you $2 on the other
charges."
"But I'm Lucille, your honor,"
said the twin.
The other sister said she was
Jean and paid the fine.
