Adults Gel Help
It has bei n comin'inly thought
thai fluoridation does nothing to
help adults whose teeth are ful
ly formed and. presumably, al
ready on the road to decay. But
the report was somewhat more
hopeful,
' The effects fin the teeth of
adults in the survey have not
as yet been ascertained." the
health service said. "However,
tiie fact that a reduction in carie
'decay) was observed for teeth
which had already been calci
fied when fluoridation was start
ed indicates that some beneficial
effect may be gained by older
age groups."
Water fluoridation is still a
contrru'ersial issue in many com
munities. However, it now is en
dorsed by most professional or
ganizations, including the Amer
ican Dental and the American
Medical associations.

Chicago UP' A muscular
man stalked and murdered a
suii-batiiing w oman Sunday

watched the scene through opera
glasses from a window one-half
mile distant.

a white shirt.
The man came out of Hie
bushes, stood looking at the
woman for several seconds, then
ducked out of view again in the

Seconds later, he leaped from
the bushes, threw the shirt
around the woman's neck and
dragged her back with him. As
he dragged the woman Besley
could see the man hitting her
on the head with a rock.

the man gone.
Near the chair where she had
been sitting, they found a copy
of a book. "Ben Hur." Inside
was a bookmark bearing a print
