FRESDfl R E O Antidote Located To Save Victims Of Sleeping Pills New York (U.R) Suicide hope ful.s via the sleeping pill route have two strikes against them since the discovery of a success ful antidote. Dr. A. W. Freireich, toxlcolo gist for Nassau County and the Meadowbrook Hospital, discov ered that deaths resulting from oyerdoses of barbiturates (sleep ing pills) could be kept to a min imum by the injection of benze drine sulphate solution into the blood stream. Dr. Freireich first used his in jection technique at Meadow brook Hospital in 1944. Since then he has treated 85 cases. Of those, 79 recovered and six died. The patients varied in age from 16 months to 74 years. The injections are made at 30 minute intervals with the dos ages gradually reduced until the patient can answer questions co herently. This is followed by a short rest and the patient is ready to return to normal life. Like Transfusion The system used for the ben zedrene injection is similar to that used for blood transfusions. The medical apparatus remains attached to the patient and the benzedrine Is tapped into the vein in prescribed amounts at the required intervals. This elimi nates the necessity of numerous punctures of the vein. The amounts of solution in jected vary from 40 milligrams for "ordinary" cases to 200 milli grams for "extreme cases rated as virtually hopeless," according to the toxicologist. "A person taking an overdose of barbiturates first goes into a deep sleep and then a coma," Dr. Freireich explained. "The benzedrine injections must be continued until the patient comes out of the coma and can answer simple questions coherently. The length of time this requires varies with each patient and with the quantity of the drug taken," he said. Youngest Patient "My youngest patient suffer ing from barbiturates poisoning was the 16-months-old son of a fellow practitioner. One day the infant found his father's medical bag and ate some of the brightly colored sleeping pills," Dr. Frei reich said. "I gave the infant one injection and within two minutes he was awake and playing on the floor." Court Records Justice Court Clayton R. Hassel, no mud guards, fine $5 and costs. Mayner M.

MAIL TRIBUNE FirTEEK Second Walnut Blight Spray Advised Now The second blight spray on walnuts should be applied now, according to County Agent C. B. Cordy. Need for the spray should be judged by the presence of blight on walnuts last year, he said. Suggested spray for best con trol is yellow copper oxide at the nite of one pound per 100 gallons of spray. Cordy said blight is a disease of the walnuts and very small twigs. It has no effect on large limbs and does not weaken the tree itself. IT WASN'T WATER Carrier Mills. 111. (U.R El mer Wynne, a garage employe, ran for water when the uphol stery of a car caught fire.
