that we hail to make the

Ángela Davis denied bail
Angela D avis' latest plea
fo r hail was denied by Judge
W. T. Sweigert. Federal D is­
tr ic t Judge for the Northern
C alifornia d is tric t.
Judge
Sweigert said the 14 months
of p re tn a l incarceration have
not hurt M is s D a v is ’ a bility to
prepare fo r her defense. He
added, however,
that the
lengthy time she has spent
in ja il “ comes close to denial
of the right to speedy tria l,
denial of due process and,
perhaps even c iu e l and un­
usual punishment.
Angela, appearing thin after
H months in ja il, appealed
personally to the judge to free
her on hail during her forth­
coming tria l on murder charg­
es.
Her 10-mmute argument, to
which she was entitled as her
own co-counsel, was sup­
ported by a law professor at
Stanford U niversity who told
Judge Sweigert
that
the
charge against.MissDaviswas
“ the flim sie s t case - letalone
c a p i t a l case - 1 have e v e r
seen.”
Miss Davis told the judge
that the refusal of the state to
grant her bail while she awaits
tria l January 31, on charges in
the 1970 M ann County Court­
house shootings was “ more
a political gesture than a le­
gal gesture."
Her confinement “ severely
erodes my presumption of in­
nocence," she said.
A lbert W. H a rris , the state
prosecutor, said the 27-year
old black m ilita n t was being
treated " in the same manner
and under the same law as ev­
ery other capital casem C ali-
fo rn ia ."
Professor Anthony Am ster­
dam, representing the Amer­
ican C i v i l L ib e rtie sL 'n i ot^
wh.c-, ta supporting Miss : <a-
vis on the bail issue, argued
that a C alifornia law deny tng
b a i l to capital defendants
where “ the proof isevidentor
th e presumption g re a t" v i o ­
lates the United StatesConsti-
tution.
The hearing was conducted
in the Federal Court Building.
M iss Davis was brought from
P a lo A Ito, 35 m i le s a w a y,
where she is being held for the
tria l scheduled in San Jose.
“ 1 ask the court to enforce
th e Constitution and release
M iss Davis on ba il,” P r o f es-
sor Amsterdam said. He said
that C alifornia SuperiorCourt
Judge Richard Arnason, had
been “ a rb itra ry " in deciding
that “ proof is evident o r the
presumption great,“ in Miss
D avis' case, and the state law
in any event has the effect of
exchanging ball fo r a “ cla s s "
of defendants. He also argued
that being held in ja il was ham­
pering M iss Davis in prepar­
ing her defense.
The state charges that.Miss
Davis bought the guns used by
four kidnappers who abducted
a judge from the bench at the
M ann County Courthouse in
San Rafael, Aug. 7, 1970, and

been denied bail by the courts

w ill now appeal to the U. S

Franklin Alexander, coor­
dinator of the National United

Davis said, “ We recognize the
courts have acted in collusion
with Governor Reagan and the
police forces who are framing
Angela. Sowewilldemand that
all Nixon appointees to the
court disqualify themselves
from hearing any motions on
Angela's case since their poli­

Family record valuable health tool
E ver w is h that you had a
fam ily health record, easy to
re a d and complete with the
facts you should have on hand?
T h e National Foundation
March of Dimes, In conjunc­
tion with the American Medi­
cal Association and Woman's
Day magazine, has devlaei an
Important new tool to m a k e
keeping t r a c k of a fa m ily's
medical history simple and
c le a r. It Is a four page form
called the Fam llyM edlcal Re­
cord and, when keptuptodate.
It becomes a valuable d o c u ­
ment upon which both the fam­
ily and physician w ill depend.
It provides a quick, compre­
hensive p ro file o fe a c h fa m-
lly member's health status as
well as a record of possible
contributing factors In certain
conditions.
T h e Record, accompanied
by an a rticle by D r. V irginia
Apgar, the Foundation's vice-
president fo r medical affairs,
appears in the January issue
o f Woman's D a y , currently
available.
Ideally, the Medical Record
should be started b e fo r e a
couple m a rrie s, so that when
the woman becomes pregnant,
or even before, h e rd o cto rw tll
a lr e a d y have information
about her health history and

background and t h a t of her
husband, and th e ir parents,
sisters and brothers.
F am ily Data
Since many conditions may
follow a definite genetic pat­
tern, awareness of ad lse i se in
one member of the fam ily may
a le rt a doctor to early symp­
toms in time to avert advanced
disease or d isa b ility. The age
of the famllymemberwhen the
disease fir s t appeared is rele­
vant to the type o r severity of
some disorders and should be
recorded.
So should his or her line of
work, since some occupations
expose workers to environ­
mental factors which affect
health. F o r example, i broth­
e r-in -la w ’ s chronic lung con­
dition might be related to as­
bestos inhaled in his work at
construction sites; a siste r's
m iscarriages might be related
to h e r work Involving anes­
thetics.
But it is not just poor health
or disease that should be re­
corded on tie form . Informa­
tion a b o u t good health also
communicates pertinent in­
formation to a doctor.
Child Health
Details ol each child's birth
should be carefully note-1, as
should incomplete pregnan­
cies brought about by m iscar­
riage, abortion, or s tillb irth .
T h e fo im h a s Instructions
about w h e n children should
be vaccinated f o r rubella
(German measlesj.dlphtherla,
tetanus, whooping cough, po­
lio , regular measles, sm all­
pox, and ail the various boost­
e rs . It provides space fo r an
Immunization record; peri­
odic physical examinations;
medications; a lle ig ie s; and a
record of fam ily Illnesses.
"T h e importance of a Fam­
ily Medical Record cannot be
emphasized enough," s a y s llr.
Apgar. "W ith It a fam ily and
Its various doctors are In a
much better position to main­
tain good health and plan for
better medical care. A recoid
of ttie health of the fam ily as a
whole demonsti ates responsi­
b ility , and being lesponsible Is
an Important part In the ta ttle
against congenital disease,
periodic Illness and b irth de­
fects.”
Diagnostic Tool
U r. Apgar developed the
widely u s e d Apgar s c o r e ,
which rates newborn babies'
respiration, muscle tone, re­
flexes, heart rate and color.
It Is a quick check, one minute
a f t e r b i r t h , to determine
whethei tie baby needs special
attention In the delivery room.
Sometimes this score also w ill
provide a clue to gome d iffi­
culty the child may have later
In l i f e . F o r that re a son, it
should la included In the Medi­
cal Record.
“ If th e Medical Record is
faithfully kept. It canhelpwlth
school, t r a v e l o r Insurance
requirements and
routine
medical consultations, and al­
so can be an Invaluable diag­
nostic tool fo r the fam ily phy­
s i c i a n , " s a y s D r. Apgar.
"D o cto rs have less and less
time to delve Into a person's
health background, and many
people don’ t remember or are
not equipped toanswei some of
the questions the doctor does
ask.
