DR. HOWE RECEIVES FAUCHARD MEDAL FOR DENTAL STUDIES

Because of his researches into the influence of diets on teeth, Dr. P. R. Howe, professor of dental science, was awarded the Fauchard medal yesterday in connection with the American Dental Association convention in Memphis, Tennessee.

The Fanchard Medal is presented each year by Dental Survey, a magazine devoted to the profession, for the outstanding achievement in dental progress during the year.

Dr. Howe has recommended more vegetables, fruits, and milk in the average diet, with less meats and cereals, declaring. "This tooth brush business is not the game. We've been brushing our teeth for 50 years, and we still have cavities. The dentist says brush your teeth every day, but be sure to come back. Why? Because he knows you'll have more cavities. Tooth brushes are not the answer. Diet is."
