Coach Bill Teel's Hornet girls
tarveled to Jayton last Tuesday
sight, only to be defeated in
loth the "A" and "B" games. It
wasn't until after the battle that
J«yton was declared the win-
ner, though.
The high-spirited Aspermont
"A" girls really played a good
tell game against Jayton. It
was closely played throughout,
aad ended with a 39-37 victory
tar the Kent County girls. The
M|h point girls for the Hornets
were Nancy Galloway and Caro-
lyn Tarrance, each having made
11 points. The runner-up was
Helen Criswell, with eight
points.
The Hornet "B" team came
on the bottom in the scor-
iae but really played heads-up
bill in a 25-14 loss to Jayton.
The girls put up a hard fish'
"but just couldn't seem to hold
Jayton's score down. High-point
girl for the Hornets was Betty
McNutt with eight points, and
the runner-up was Maurine May-
field, with five points.

APPROVAL OF PUBLIC
WATER SYSTEMS GIVEN
AUSTIN, Nov. 21.—Fifty areas
in Texas have had their public
water systems approved during
the biennium ending August 31,
1956, according to sanitary en-
gineering records of the Texas
State Department of Health.
During the same period, five
areas had their water system
approvals withdrawn. Approval
or disapproval, after adequate
inspection of Texas water sys-
tems, is just one of dozens of
functions carried on by the
Sanitary Engineering Division of
the Texas State Department of
Health.
The prolonged drouth in Texn*
has given new significance to
this responsibility as more and
more municipalities of Texas
seek additional sources of water
for their parched citizenry.
It was also disclosed by
D. Henry A. Holle, commis-
sioner of health, that at the
close of the biennium there
were over 800 domestic sewage
treatment plants in Texas, all of
which come under the scrutiny
of the department of health.
Because of the phenomenal
growth of Texas cities in the
post-war years, it Is estimated
that from 25 to 30 per cent of
these facilities are either over-
loaded or are in need of re-
placement, enlargement, or ad-
ditional treatment units.
The scrutinizing eyes of the
j sanitary engineers have seen
I the growth of Texas industry
give rise to an air and stream
pollution problem. So far in-
dustry, teaming with state
forces, has kept pollution of
Texas streams to a minimum.
However, should the drouth
continue during the next bi-
ennium. engineers feel that
many additional problems will
be created involving industrial
waste disposal, particularly
• sne0 industries* situated inland.
These are all problems of a
perpetual nature, varying only
in magnitude. But who could
have foreseen the Buck Rogers
aspect of disposing of waste ma-
terials of a radioactive nature
in our day and age?
Nevertheless, this is still an-
other problem confronting the
workers of the sanitary engi-
neering division, and a program
of inspection and control of ra-
dioactive material in Texas has
long been in effect.
Most facets of modern living
are taken for granted by Mr.
and Mrs. Average Citizen, but
the cutting and oolishing of
many of these facets is drudg-
ing everyday routine for health
department technicians.
