Dreaded 'White Plague'
Still Is Major
Forest Park, 111. IIP) A
doctor who has spent much of
his professional life fighting
tuberculosis says the once
dreaded "white plague" still is
a major medical problem.
Dr. E. A. Piszczek, executive
director of the suburban Cook
County (111.) Tuberculosis Sani
tarium, said there has been a
popular misconception for many
years that TB is "under con
trol." Piszczek and his staff know
better. They are waging an un
relenting fight against a "for
gotten" disease.

Provide Top Football
Fare on Turkey Day
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
Texas A&M is rated an eight
point favorite over Texas in the
top game of Thursday's Turkey
program while Navy is a six
point choice over Army in the
big game of Saturday's grand
climax to the college football
season.
Such results combined with a
Rice triumph over Baylor and
a Mississippi victory over Mis
sissippi State on Saturday would
just about round out the Jan. 1
bowl pairings by pitting Texas
A&M against Mississippi in the
Sugar and Navy against Rice in
the Cotton. The Rose and Orange
bowl pairings have already been
determined.
Texas A&M, rated the nation's
top team until its 7-6 loss to Rice

Celtics Gun
For Record
By UNITED PRESS
The World Champion Boston
Celtics face the New York
Knickerbockers tonight in the
first of four games that may en
able them to set one National
Basketball Association record
and equal another.
The Celtics, riding the crest
of a 13-game winning streak
need victories over New York
tonight and Thursday to equal
the league mark of 15 straight
at the start of a season held by
the 1948 Washington club. If
successful, they'll then have a
shot at the all-time mark of 17
straight wins during any por
tion of a season held by the 1946
Washington team.
The Celtics appear to have
little to fear from the Knicker
bockers who Tuesday night
dropped their ninth decision in
14 games when they bowed to
the St. Louis Hawks, 120-110.
The Detroit Pistons beat the
Minneapolis Lakers, 109-91, in
the other half of a doubleheader
at Madison Square Garden.
Problem
"There still is no sure preven
tive for tuberculosis," he said,
"and there is no known cure."
People Are Lulled
Piszczek said many people
are lulled by the fact that the
TB death rate has declined from
nearly 200 deaths per 100,000
population in 1900 to about 10
per cent in 1956.
But he said there has been no
appreciable decline in the num
ber of new cases reported yearly
since 1930. Last year, he said,
there were 161,276 cases and
13,810 deaths reported, and the
figures for 1957 are expected to
be about the same.
"Since we still have no cure
for TB this means we have an
ever-increasing number of vic
tims who will need care all their
live?," he said.
The growth of cities has add
ed another headache to the
problems of health officials at
tempting to stamp out TB.
"Tuberculosis is roughly
three times as prevalent in the
city as in suburban areas and
three times as prevalent in the
suburbs as in rural areas," Pis
zczek said.
AH! THERE YOU ARE

ial eyeglasses have helped a near

i when he pulled a Venetian blind
a tie for the Southwestern con
ference title if it beats Texas on
Thursday.
Assuming the Aggies win, Rice
will be on the spot Saturday
although the Owls are favored
by eight points over a Baylor
team that hasn't won a confer
ence game this season and is 3-5-1
against all competition. In
the event of a Rice victory, the
Aggies would have to settle for
a Sugar bowl bid with Rice
winning the honor of represent
ing the conference in the Cotton
bowl.
Navy is known to be receptive
to a Cotton bowl bid if it beats
Army and the odds-makers rate
the Middies that solid one-touchdown
favorite to turn the trick
The Cadets will not accept a
bowl bid whether they win or
lose.
In other Thanksgiving Day
"traditionals," Brown is a six-
point pick over Colgate at Pro
vidence, R.I.; Pennsylvania is
rated six over Cornell at Phil
adelphia; Cincinnati is six over
Miami of Ohio at Cincinnati,
and Virginia Military Institute
is two over Virginia Tech at
Roanoke, Va.
Perfect Season Possible
Auburn, ranked third nation
ally but ineligible for a bowl
bid, can round out a perfect
season by beating Alabama on
Saturday and the defense-minded
Tigers are rated 14-point favor
ites to make it.
Mississippi, 5-0-0 in the South
eastern conference and 8-1 over
all, is a four-point pick over Mis
sissippi State which has a 4-2
conference mark and a 6-2 slate
overall. Mississippi State could
win a Sugar bowl bid with an
impressive triumph and will be
a Gator bowl possibility even if
it loses.
In other Saturday games, Ok
lahoma is rated 20 over Okla
homa State; Georgia Tech seven
over Georgia; Tennessee seven
over Vanderbilt, Holy Cross by
three over Boston College; South

Christian; Notre Dame 14 over

Police Blame Four
Deaths on Money
Pasadena, Calif. (IP) Police
blamed an attorney's worries
over financial problems today
for a triple slaying and suicide
which wiped out an entire fam
ily.
Bodies of Harvey Rawlings,
42, his 42-year-old wife Ruth,
and their sons, Raymond, 11 and
Robert, 16, were discovered on
Tuesday night in their home in
the exclusive San Rafael Hills
district.
Mrs. Rawlin's nightgown-clad
body was found in the hallway
of the home. Bodies of the boys
were discovered in the beds of
their separate sleeping rooms
Det. Capt. Carl A. Lindholm
said Rawlings apparently hit his
wife on the head with a ham
mer, killed the boys with a .38
caliber revolver, came back and
shot his wife and then killed
himself. His body was found in
the bathroom.
Investigation of Rawlings' per
sonal effects indicated the at
torney was in financial difficul
ty, officers said. They said the
murders and suicide probably
took place early Tuesday mor
ning, although the tragedy was
not discovered until Tuesday
night.
Rawlings' home was not far
from the Annandale Country
club and only four or five
blocks from the home where
Harold Oiler killed his wife and
three children several years ago.

Chessman Book
Ordered Released
Los Angeles Iff! San
Quentin authorities were under
court orders today to release the
manuscript of convict-author
Caryl Chessman's fourth book,
"The Kid Was a Killer."
Superior Judge Walter R.
Evans issued the order Tuesday,
commenting that a refusal to do
so might prolong the Chessman
case for "another decade."
Besides, Judge Evans said,
failure to do so would deprive
the 37-year-old death row author
of due process of law. Chessman
argues he needs revenue from
sale of the book to finance his
fight to .avoid the gas chamber.
Chessman was convicted of 17
counts of robbery, burglary,
kidnaping and sex offenses in
1948. He was sentenced to death,
under California's "Little Lind
bergh" law.
He has avoided death In San
Quentin's gas chamber for near
ly 10 years by a series of legal
maneuvers made possible by the
sale of the best selling novels,
"Cell 2455 Death Row" and
"Trial By Ordeal."
Judge Evans' ruling on the
impounded book came in the
midst of hearing on the 1,821
page transcript of the 1948
trial, which Chessman claims
was fraudulently prepared after
the death of the original court
reporter in the case.
