she was hurting in the throat.
"That child couldn't get up a

So the lovely Lily Mae took

Experts Advise
On Techniques .
To Gather Votes
Washington (U.R) Repub
lican state chairmen, sobered by
an expert's warning they can
throw away the 1956 election
despite the popularity of Presi
dent Eisenhower, boned up to
day on how to win.
In the second day of a four
day campaign school here, they
called in one adviser after an
other for counsel on such tech
niques as precinct organization,
purchase of TV and radio time,
door-to-door fund raising, and
how to make best use of the
candidate's "advance men."
Nixon To Add Plea
Vice - President Richard M.
Nixon, addressing the group at
lunch, was expected to add his
plea for a hard-hitting GOP cam
paign, starting now, more than
a year before the election. Nixon
also was expected to reassure
the state party officials on what
they most wanted to hear: That
President Eisenhower in his
opinion will run.
Without an exception the party
officials seemed firmly com
mitted already to that assump
tion. Only under prodding by
newsmen would they even dis
cuss other candidates and gener
ally they also had taken the view
they would not need to worry
much about getting the President
reelected.
Most Popular Candidate
That, warned campaign expert
Murray Chotiner, is the kind of
thinking that elected Democrat
Harry S. Truman in 1948, -when
Republican Thomas E. Dewey
was considered a shoo-in.
Chotiner, a Los Angeles at
torney who successfully man
aged Nixon's campaigns for the
Senate in 1950 and for vice-president
two years later, told the
group Wednesday Mr. Eisen
hower is the best qualified and
most popular candidate they
could pick. He said an Eisen
hower ticket unquestionably
will win provided they do their
part in organizing a campaign
aimed at picking up every possi
ble vote.

Unpleasant Side of
Pe nici 1 1 i n Rev ea led
At Doctor's Request
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York (U.R) Several
medical scientists have suggested
that this writer tell the public
something about the unpleasant
side of penicillin so that the
public will stop twisting doctoral
arms in order to get a shot of
the stuff for the least little thing.
The medical profession has
just about curbed the enthus
iasts among its members who
were shooting first and 'asking
questions later. But patients still
demand it and when a medical
man refuses to come across,
many of them act as though he
ought to be driving a bus.
The unpleasant side of penicil
lin is that some people are al
lergic to it. In some very few
cases comparatively speaking
it has produced the rushing,
sledge-hammer kind of allergic
reaction called anaphylactic
shock which can be quickly fa
tal. Leading Brake-Jerker
Dr. Sheppard Siegal of "New
York's Mount Sinai Hospital, an
allergy specialists, has been one
of the leading brake-jerkers
within the profession. A recent
lecture of his at the annual meet-
Fongs To Be Tried
In Separate Hearings
Portland (U.R) Wey Him
Fong and his wife, Sherry, will
be tried separately in the state's
second attempt to convict them
of murdering 16-year-old Diane
Hank.
Attorney Irvin Goodman, rep
resenting the Fongs, told Circuit
Judge James R. Bain his clients
would exercis their right to
separate trails.
The court, at request of Good
man and with approval of the
prosecution, extended from Sept.
28 to Oct. 17 the date for trial
of one of the Fongs.
District Attorney William
Langley said he was undecided
as to which of the defendants
will be tried first.
The Fongs were convicted of
slaying the Portland high school
girl last spring and sentenced to
life imprisonment. However, Cir
cuit Judge Alfred P. Dobson
overruled the verdict and or
dered a new trial.

ing of the Medical ' Society of
the State of New York was heard
only by other doctors.
Speaking of antibiotics gener
ally, he said he did not want to
"instill fear" he wanted to
"suggest a proper discrimination."
For allergic reactions, penicil
lin is the "problem antibiotic,"
he said. In his wide experience,
he had classified four types:
1. "Delayed type," occurring
at least five days after the pen
icillin shot. There are skin erup
tions usually hives fever and
pain in the joints. This is the
reaction of an allergic person to
the first exposure to an antigen,
in this case, penicillin.
Accelerated and Immediate
.2. "Accelerated and immedi
ate" type. Not nearly as common
as type one. Occurs only in per
sons who have had penicillin be
fore. It may come within seconds
of the shot or one or two days
afterward.
Type Three are "hyperergic"
reactions, mainly more severe
forms of Type One. Type Four
is an eruption of the skin, par
ticularly the hands, feet and
groins.
All this indicates why doctors
now almost always ask if you've
ever had penicillin before and
if so, was there any reaction.
Dr. Siegal remarked that pedia
tricians "are fortunately less con
cerned with the hazards which
beset physicians treating adults."
The reason is that the severe
forms of penicillin .allergic re
actions are "very rare in childhood."
