NEWS from your
PHARMACIST i
Hoard
There is a constant battle
to kill tiny living creatures—
it is probably today’s
greatest war.
The effect of chemicals on
living creatures is an
exacting science known as
pharmacology. Trained
pharmacologists study the
relationship between the
dosage of a drug and the
effect it has on the body.
Pharmacology is a branch
of clinical medicine, closely;
related with anatomy and
pathology. Modification of
the functions or organs is a
primary duty of a pharma
cologist. He can, by the use
of the proper drug or drugs,
slow down an overactive
organ or speed up a sluggish
one.
Pharmacists are not phar
macologists, but we stand
ready to properly and safely
prepare those drugs which
are prescribed by your
physician.

Harmon Gives Georgia Two
Point Nod Over Tough Pitt
By Robert S. Harmon
Always the start of another
football season makes us feel
a little like it’s New Year’s,
Christmas, and 4th of July all
rolled into one. So, starting
our 19th year in this
“butterflies-in-the-stomach ’ ’
rat-race of grid forecasting,
we’re going to take time out
right at the beginning and
wish everyone “A Very,
Happy Football!” (Don’t call
the wagon . . . you have to
be a nut to be in this business
to begin with!)
The Harmon Football
Forecast, one of the
country’s most popular
sports features, is brought to
football fans in this area by
Mclntosh State Bank, Jack
son’s friendliest and most
progressive full service
bank.
It may be abbreviated, but
the first week of college
football should be very
interesting. Last year’s sur
prise power in the Southwest
Conference, Baylor, takes on
Mississippi. Georgia tussles
with Pittsburgh in a North-
South battle, and in a
Monday nite attraction,
Alabama meets Missouri.
In addition, five of the
seven teams that have just
been promoted to Division I
status will be in action for the
first time in their new roles
as major college football
teams.

not been the strong man in

the Southeast Conference
that it once was, and it has a
tough assignment against
Baylor, our No. 7 team in
1975.
Mississippi gets off to a
poor start ... the Bears
will win by 17 points.
It should be almost a
coin-flipper between the
Panthers of Pitt and the
Georgia Bulldogs. Georgia
finished six and five during
the regular season last year
. . . Pitt was seven and
four. Georgia is favored in
the opener by two points.
Although the pro’s don’t
take over Monday night
football until later in Septem
ber, the Alabama-Missouri
game will keep them from
being missed. The Tide, still
shaken after losing to Notre
Dame in the Orange Bowl
last January, will come back
strong in this nationally
televised contest. Mizzou,
seven and four last fall,
doesn’t look to be quite ready
to spring an upset this early.
So Alabama by ten
points.
The five new additions to
major college football that
will see action Saturday are
Arkansas State, Ball State,
Central Michigan, Northeast
Louisiana, and Southwest
Louisiana. Central Michigan
won the National Collegiate
Division II championship last
year, and in spite of heavy
graduation losses, they
should whip Western Michi
gan by 27 points. Southwest
Louisiana is picked to be the
gage money, and we’re equipped
to meet all a young family’s needs.
