Schoolwork Goes on Despite
Tangles With Tuberculosis
By JAMES BURR MILLER
Staff Writer, The Statesman
( Photo on Dace one.)
Young patients at Oregon State Tuberculosis Hospital east bf j
Salem continue their education while undergoing treatment at the
hospital. 'i
But that's only one phase of -education in connection with tu
berculosis, as instruction outside the hospital is considered a con
tinuing need so the citizens will be aware of signs of the disease.
Two classroom-type teachers r :
were kept busy on the TB Hospi-J
tal staff Mrs. A. B. Swigart and -
Mrs. Ruth Hamilton.
One of Mrs. Swigart's charges
at the hospital is Sharon Moore
(pictured above), 11, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Moore, Silver
ton. The girl came to the hospital
last June and is continuing her
work as a sixth-grader in school
She was a pupil at Macleay prior
to her admittance for treatment
Besides studying which she
likes, she is interested in crochet
ing. The young girl's attitude at
the hospital is described as ad
mirable.
One of the educational methods
outside the hospital corridors lies
in the field of methodical X-ray
checkups. The Marion County
Tuberculosis and Health Associa--tion,
during their current Christ
mas Seal program, reported that
three times as much TB is lo
cated in routine hospital chest
X-ravs as in anv other method.
"Of course the mobile unit j
finds a large number as well."
explained Mrs. Ruby Bunnell,
local tuberculosis association
executive.
To promote these routine X-ray j
checkups of regular city hospital
patients, a committee from the :
county association has been as- j
signed to study the possibility of
establishing regular X-ray check-!
ups at. the new Salem General j
Hospital. Salem Memorial already j
has such an attachment on their ,
equipment and have, since last
July, been taking chest X-rays
their patients at $2 each
The new attachment
equipment costs
win Wedel, business manager
Salem Memorial, explained that
their hospital was fortunate in
getting a war surplus attachment
for considerably less than the new
price. "The unit has worked out
beautifully," he said.
The current population of
young folks at the state TB Hos
pital is not so alarming as it has
been in the past, but officials
explain that this is because a
number of youngsters are now
sent to Doernbecher Hospital at
Portland. There the children may
