HOPELE A correspondent Inquires whether there 1 some non-hablt-Iorming drug that will re lieve pain in a case of sci atica which is hopeless.' Sci atica Is a term loosely, ap plied to pain ful or disab ling conditions pre sumed to be due to In flammation of the largest nerve In the Dr. Brady , body, the sci atic nerve, extending from its roots in the lower part of the spinal cord down back of the hip and thigh to the inner side of leg and foot. Not all cases of so-called sci atica are sciatic neuritis (nerve inflammation), however. In a good many Instances the pain and disability ascribed to sciatica are actually due to other causes, but Is beyond our province to discuss the pathology of these conditions here. In exceptional cases the pros pect of cure or great. Improve ment is Indeed hopeless and lest I do more harm than good I shall not mention just what cases I have in mind. In the great majority of cases of pain and disability in the sciatic re gion it seems hardly necessary to mention that there Is no spe cific or pecular condition or ail ment to be identified as "sci atica" a correct diagnosis and the proper medical, surgical or physical treatment will either cure the trouble or bring about sufficient improvement to make pain-killers unnecessary. This readiness to regard the condition as "hopeless" is too often the excuse for indulging in narcotic drugs. It reminds ma of grandma's case. Grand ma always seemed pretty rug ged to me, although she assever ated that when she was a mere slip of a girl the great Dr. Shat tuck of Boston had discovered that one of her lungs was gone and sure . enough, . when I sported my first stethoscoe I High School News r stadsaiVifwrura Mart oaauall Joan Tuesday, third period, 1 the vocal department under the di rection of Miss Mabel Nansen gave an assembly for the stu dents of Senior high school. Numbers presented by the choir were: "Skylark," "Sweetheart of Sigma Chi," "Carolina Moon," "Navy Hymn," "Okla homa," "Vonka Tonka," "Sing Your Songs," and "Gonna Join de Heavenly Choir." The mixed quartet, consisting of June Wil liams, Carl Wlnklebleck, June Jarmln, and Gerald Pence, sang "Irish Lullaby," from "Going My Way," and "Because You're You," by Victor Herbert The girls' sextet with Gloria Pres ton, Barbara Meadows, Harriet Walker, Joan Hickman, Lore Monteith, and Donna Dawes sang "My Wonderful One." Also Jim Fraley sang a solo number called "Three for Jack." e e e Results of the recent remedial English testa given seniors and juniors have been announced. According to Miss DeliaWhlsen ant, teacher of remedial sub jects, there are approximately 243 students attending remedial classes which started Wednes day of this week. see A recent visitor to the Hi Times Publications office was Larry Wilson, U.S.N:, a '44 graduate who is home for nine days between terms at Carroll college, Helena, Mont. When he goes back to college, he expects to stay about four months, then perhaps be sent to some other college to finish his remaining two years before receiving: hie commission as an ensign in the naval reserve. a a e According to Mrs. Gladys Herron, dramatlec coach, the cast for a new school play called "Exclusive Model" Is as follows: e e First-year typists who have made the highest one-minute tests are as follows: Marjorle Thompson, with a score of 81 words a minute; Helen Robin son, 58; Joan Smith, 87; and Jackie Nelson, 83.

I94S SS, EHT couldn't hear anything when I listened over the missing lung (or over the other one either, but I could not afford to admit it), which confirmed grandma's belief that she had lived for most of her lifetime with only one lung. In spite of federal laws, state and municipal ordinances or regulations it is still too easy for people to buy pain-killers, narcotics and so-called nerve sedatives and get into the habit of taking such drugs. Many of these addicts justify their in dulgence by saying, unfortun ately with truth, that a physi cian prescribed the stuff some time or other. That evil, at least, could be remedied by a law or regulation prohibiting refilling of physicians' prescrip tions or the filling of prescrip tions for others than the per sons for whom the prescriptions are given the physician nam ing the individual in the pre scription, as well as dating and signing his order to the drug gist. .
