Twelve medfohd (ohegoni mail tribune Two Synthetic Hormones Relieve Fever Sufferers Hartford, Conn., May 24 U.R Administration of two synthetic hormones has brought dramatic results in the treatment of rheu matic fever and arthritis. Dr. Timothy F. Brewer, St. Francis hospital cardiologist, reported to day. He told the New England Pe diatric Society of 12 years re search with the hormone sub stances, known as progesterone and estradiol. "Startling" was the ws,y Brew er described the condition of pa tients after receiving injections of the hormones. He told of a 10-year-old Hartford girl, critically ill with rheumatic fever, who asked to leave her bed 21 hours after receiving the hormone treatment. And he told a 51-year-old Massachusetts woman, severely crippled with arthritis and unable even to lift a cup of coffee, who drank her coffee with ease three hours following treat ment. A day later she said she felt like "going to a dance." Brewer started his research after a casual remark by a young woman who said she "used to have inflammatory rheumatism until she became pregnant. He set out to obtain some substance that would produce a "hormonial state simulating pregnancy."

This can giv Wi - A Nichols' Worth of Comment On By HARMAN United Pnu Washington, May 24 (U.R) Before many weeks, there will be more can openers than there are white ioiks in the thriving little town of Usumbura in the Belgian Congo. It's like this. Not long ago United Press cabled a piece to the dark continent about a new Ameri can invention a can opener that not only opens cans but attached which Harman Nichols has a magnet holds onto the top so it won't get into the pea juice. The story told all about man's struggles across the years to per fect something that would open a can the way a can should be opened. It mentioned that inven tors by the hundreds have flood ed the U. S. patent office in an effort legally to get into the can- opening business. First can opener on record was developed in 1858 by one Ezra J. Warner. The housewife operated the thing by holding it upright over the can with one hand and whacking it with the palm of the other until either the can or the hand was punc tured. But getting back to the origi nal theme of this sermon. Super-Duper Number The magnetic opener we de scribed was a super-dupcr num ber patented by the Rival Manu facturing company of Kansas City, Mo. It was called a can-o- mat. It opened the can and, as we said, caught the top on a magnet at the same time. Not only that, it pioneered in easier cleaning of openers. All the lit tle woman has to do is to flick her finger to release a small bar, which holds the cutter in place. From there on, it's easy to rinse the cutter and get the sardine grease off it. Well, the good ladies of Usum bura took a fancy to the story and apparently got together, and mailed an order. That posed a problem for the Rival people. No money came with the order mileage and greater safety from assures you of getting both . . . what's more important, you'll enjoy i mnc ueucr idre ui your car Wednesday, May 24. 1950 This and That W. NICHOLS Feature Writer and it'll have to go collect. The openers sell in this country from $4.98 to $7.95. (That information is part of the story and not a free ad.) Openers Come High But in order to deliver the goods, the company is going to have to get about $15 to S22 apiece for the things, including shipping charges. Anyhow, the things are on the way. And they'll get to the Congo like this: First they will travel aboard a steamer from New York to a port on the east coast of Tan ganyika. Then they go by slow train across that country to a lake on its western border where the railroad runs into a dead end. From there they go a couple of hundred miles up the lake to their destination. The shipping companies have no idea how long all this will take and hope that the women of Nsumbura have some other way to open their canned stuff in the meantime. As for the Rival outfit. They expect that this headache if business can call a sale a head ache will be the last one from that direction in at least 10 years. The town ordered 21 B openers. . According to the last official census Usumbura has far less than 216 i.vhite folks.
