THE DALLAS POST, FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1957 Three bright-faced youngsters in just completed a fascinating health study proving the value of milk in any animal’s diet, human or four- footed. Miss Janice Yozviak, sixth grade teacher, found it impossible to decide between the two best essays written on Operation Rat, so she sent both of them to James A. Martin, supervising principal, and creased his average 35 pins. The ten top bowlers for the year: Bob Spengler, Mike Gorey, Cliff Garris, Walter Gosart, Burt Owen, Allen Montross, Frank Fritzinger, Tom Reese, Alton Whittaker, Jack Cortright. League officers and team cap- tains for the next season will be appointed at the banquet. See You Next Fall This winds up the regular sea- son at the Crown Imperial Bowling Lanes. There are several leagues organized who will bowl all sum- mer. but there will be no regular reports carried. One “gem” of a league under the name of Crown Imperial Women has teams called the Diamonds, Pearls, Rubies and Emeralds. Harveys Lake Women carry the same members through the summer, and Denmon’s have included men with their regular women’s teams and will bowl on eight lanes. Several men’s leagues have been formed. We expect to see many improved ‘bowlers by the opening of next season, and we wish them all lots of fun and good Tuck. If you need Vacation this year . .. don't hesi- tate to ask Loan.

John Wardell and Peggy Perkins have written the story. John’s story comes’ first: “Back Mountain people will prob- ably be interested and amazed to learn that the sixth grade from Trucksville Elementary School have been making a study of the lives and habits pf two white rats pro- vided by the National Dairy Council. ‘“ For the first three or four days after arrival of the rats, everyone | seemed more interested in them than in our regular school work.

Dewey’s poor diet con- sists of bread, and water, coffee or soda. “Both rats are weighed each week to determine the increase of weight. When Huey first arrived, he weighed sixty grams, and Dewey weighed sixty-five grams. Now, three weeks later, Huey weighs 178 grams and Dewey only 95. So you can see the results of an adequate breakfast diet. “Signs of a poor diet that show up on Huey are tangled fur, scaly tail and feet, dull color of the ears, and considerable nervousness. “All the work that must be done, | such as feeding the rats, cleaning the cage, and bringing in the food, is done by the students, each get- ting a turn for the job. Everyone cooperates, and we have a wonder- ful time. “One day our teacher was startled when we were cleaning out the rat’s cage. We put the rats into a coffee can before we clean out the wood shavings, so that they aren’t in our way. When we put Dewey into the can, he was so nervous that he jumped up, knocked off the top, and almost escaped! “We owe a lot of thanks and appreciation to the High School DALLAS, PENNSYLVANIA At CYF Conference (Photo by Kozemchak) Donna Garinger and Elaine Kozemchak represent Huntsville Christian Youth Fellowship at Keystone College, LaPlume. remained in excellent condition and was getting fat, but rats don’t get fat, their bones grow and enlarge the size of their body. “It was really surprising the way all the children in the class con- tributed by bringing in food and taking care of the rats. The follow- ing boys were in charge of cleaning the cage and weighing the rats: John Wardell, Andy Ungar, and Kenneth Herwig. Miss Yozviak, our | teacher, supervised the work. “Everyone made a graph to keep ia record of their weight, so you can see how it brought in other sub- jects, too. The best graph was | picked to be put on the board. “One day two boys came in and ‘were surprised to see Miss Yozviak with her hand on top of the cage. The rats had gotten so big that they could bob the cage top up and down. “Now that the rats have left, we look back and realize how helpful the experiment was to our class.

They seemed to be excited about something else, too. I know now, this was the day the Dairy Council brought them two rats for an ex- periment to show all the children of the school the great importance of a well-balanced diet. “The class decided on the names Huey and Dewey for the rats. They have been staying in the sixth grade room rent free since the day they came. “Dewey was a little larger nnd weighed sixty-five grams, so ‘we de- cided that he should be put on the poor diet. Huey, being smaller and weighing only sixty grams, was put on a well balanced diet. When they came to stay with us, they both had white soft fur, bright sparkling. eyes, and pink ears, feet and tails. They were perfectly healthy specimens. I guess they wanted to impress us. ‘“Dewey’s diet consisted of water, coffee or soda, and bread. Huey’s diet consisted of milk, eggs, cereal, bread, and fruit. We fed them every morning, and we gave them a fresh drink at the end of the school day. “At first there wasn’t much dif- ference in their reactions and ap- pearance, but after a week we be- gan to notice that Dewey was herv- ous, his tail was beginning to get scaly, and he weighed seventy- four grams. Huey slept most of the time, his tail and ears were pink, and he weighed 99 grams. “At the end of the second week Dewey remained nervous, his tail was scaly, one eye was almost closed, and he weighed 84 grams. Huey was in perfect condition and he weighed 145 grams. “At the end of the third week, Dewey tried consistently to get to the good food on Huey’s side of the cage, his feet and tail were scaly, shape for carefree vacation over-all checkup. vacation<time but all year @® Have you remembered to bring your car in to us for that final pre-vacation check-up?
