Erin Mcrkel, public health physician, today remind ed residents to keep dogs, cats and other pets isolated and un der observation for a period of 10 to 14 days after someone has been bitten by the animal. He said the bite may result in rabies and treatment needed for the human victim. However, he noted, many people dispose of the animal immediately after the bite, making it impossible to determine whether or not the animal was suffering from rabies. In such cases it is advisable to treat the human for rabies whether or not he has been in fected. Dr. Merkel pointed out this treatment is expensive and if not administered with ex treme caution, can sometimes be dangerous. The physician recommended ...!,;., u watching the animal for signs or illness during the isolation period. If the animal becomes ill or dies the health department in the courthouse or a veterin arian should be notified. If the animal dies, he said the j body should be sent to the state j heaith department laboratory to i determine whether or not rabies i caused death before treatment ' to the human victim is started.

Three firemen and two other persons were injur ed, none seriously. Water from fire hoses froze into weird icicle patterns on the blazing buildings, formed a slip pery sheet benealli fireman's feet and coated firemen and on lookers with freezing spray in the 16-degree temperature. Smoke from rags and paper stored in the five-story ware house in which the fire broke out cast a heavy pall over down town Manhattan and hampered fire fighters. In the course of a 70-year life it is estimated that the human heart contracts not less than two and one-half billion times to do its work.
