Stoppage in Nostrils Said Often Cause of Death of New-Bom Child Deios Smith By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York IP) Physicians should check the nostrils of the now-born carrfully because in fants found dead for no apparent rea son may well have suffocat ed because one of the two nostrils had been stopped from birth wnnout any one knowing it. This advice was issued by the Medical Society of the State of New York. It came from Dr. Henry H. Beinfield of the Long Island College hospital wlio sug gested that this was an answer to "the unsolved problem of in fant suffocation." He referred to cases in which final medical reports contain the notation: "Cause unknown." In one specific year there were 5.315 such cases in the United States. "There surely must be some unexplored area to account for the 'cause unknown' in infant deaths, and the nose is one place where the cause may be found," he said. "The nose is never con sidered as a vital organ respon sible for infant suffocation and therefore is seldom investigat ed." Suppose an infant up to five months old has one nostril stopped, he said. If this infant "placed on its abdomen and its face buried in the pillow in such a manner as to completely close the clear nostril, a condition of bilateral obstruction is created with ;the result that the infant will suffocate." "There is no reflex present for an infant to open its mouth to breath through its nose," he said. "As a matter of fact, it will close its mouth tighter in an ef fort at forced nasal breathing, thereby completely depriving it self of any supply of air. Open ing the mouth to get air is purely voluntary action which young infants do not have." The delivery room routine now is to put a catheter in the nose of the new born to draw out any mucus. But "should an obstruction to the continued pas sage of the catheter be met, the catheter is removed for fear of injuring the nasal mucous mem brane." Dr. BeinfielH said. It shouldn't be removed, he added. Rather, it should be passed Medforcf Youth Working Rain Research Program in through both nostrils and into the pharynx which is the tube running behind the nose, mouth and larynx. Must Make Opening In cases where the infant is having breathing difficulty, an effort should be made to force the catheter through. If it can't be forced through, then the opening of the nostril into the pharynx obviously is stopped and something can be done to make an opening. Dr. Beinfield reported a per sonal experience with an infant whose both nostrils were stopped. "The infant would have died of suffocation if the condition was not .immediately recognized and treated at birth," he said. "It is logical to assume that if bilateral atresia stoppage could cause suffocation, a unilateral atresia also could cause suffoca tion when the clear nostril is ac cidentally closed off." Current Stock Market Terrible for Those Never in Bull Phase By ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor New York To many invest ors who never went through a bear phase, the current stock market is terrible. The season market men, however say the declines in the industrials haven't 'been large, and while they have brought out fairly large volume :omparedwith Elmer Waizer the recent pace, the dealings are small. They still insist we are not in a bear market, and that the de? cline has been orderly in line with expectations of the experts. Percentagewise the declines in industrials have been small. In bear markets, a 10 per cent drop often occurs. To fall 10 per cent right now the industrials would have to break more than 45 points to the Dow-Jones aver age. Range of Losses At today's opening prices, the industrials were down 70.21 points or 13V2 per cent from thej July 12 highs; rails down 36.25 points or 23 per cent; utilities down 8.38 points or ll1 4 per cent and the 65 stocks in the three averages, down 25.38 points or 14 per cent. Measured by the Sandard & Poor's index of 500 stocks which gives a fairly accurate average price per share of stock listed, the loss from the highs set on July 15: the 1957 high for that index was $7.18 a share. If you multiply that $7.18 a share loss by the 4,700,000,000 shares listed you get a paper loss of $33,746,000,000 for the market as a whole. If you assume that there has been an actual loss of $7.18 a share on each share sold since July 15, the actual loss in value suffered would amount to $834, 796,055. The real loss was much less than that, possibly less than 500 million dollars, which in these days of big figures isn't startling. , Nearly a Cash Market Tuesday while the Dow-Jones industrial average declined about 1.85 points, the rails lost 1.39 points, the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index showed a loss of only 27 cents a share. Some accounts have suffered wider paper losses than the aver age and indexes indicate. In a few instances margins have be come impaired and some margin calls have been sent out. But in most instances this near cash market still is securely financed, say the market experts. As one expert put it, while this may not be a bear market as a whole, many groups have been in a bear market of their own for one to three years. He holds that much of the grief that we think about has been here and gone. The chartists say the market gave a good account of itself at the 450 level in industrials, but add there's still a possibility the average can go down to 400. Anneffe Dionne To Be Married on Friday Motreal OP) Quintuplet An nette Dionne will be married here this Friday at a private ceremony to a 24-year old fin ance company agent. Her fiance, Germain Allard, who previously had denied plans to marry Annette, said Wednes day he was confused when he had done so. "I am sorry I misled anyone," he said. "Annette and I had hoped for a very quiet wedding, without any public announcement," he said. 'We had not known An nette's father had said anything, because we had asked him not to." Annette's father, Oliva Dion ne, said he and his wife were not sure whether they would be able to attend the wedding as they both were recovering from the flu. Woman Finally Learns Home Burglarized Omaha, Neb. HP) Mrs. Allen Mercer didn't realize that her home was burglarized until two months after it happened when police returned the loot. A cash box containing bank books and papers was found in an alley. From the contents police esti mated the box had been stolen about two months ago. VITAMINS AND CHILDREN Chicago API The American Academy of Pediatrics has warned against trying to raise "super-normal" children with the help of vitamins. There is no growth stimulation in vitamins, the academy's committee on nu trition reported. Nevertheless, the committee said, anxious par ents put pressure on doctors for body-building "tonics to help their children grow.

Another Fins Product Of Standard Brandt ln& Corvaiiis A raindrop cam era" and a mobile weather radar set will be used by Oregon col lege meteorologists this winter for special studies on rainy weather. Both studies are aimed at pro ducing new and valuable find ings on forecasting and observ ing weather with radar, accord ing to Fred W. Decker, physicist who is in charge of both pro jects. Radar Is widely used now, to detect falling rain and storms. Commercial airlines are equip ped with weather radar, he not ed, and various other groups are interested in radar because of its usefulness in relation to weather conditions and forecast ings. The OSC weather radar unit, similar to the type built in planes, has been installed in a trailer especially designed and built in the physics department. Equipped with its own power supply for field operations, it will be used to make various ob servations on storm patterns and movements in western Oregon. Pattern of rainfall in the costal mountains will be checked by taking the unit to strategic lo cations. The unique raindrop camera will be used to photograph size and shape of raindrops this win ter as a help in interpreting the weather radar signals. Having information on size and shape of raindrops that occur in var ious storm types and region-, will make the radar information on rain more meaningful, Decker explained. The camera wa. built by the University of Illinois and the OSC work will be financed by a $4,460 grant from that insti tution. University of Miami is also cooperating in the raindrop study to provide a nationwide reading on diuerences in rain drops and storm patterns. Earlier this year, Decker re ceived a $29,000 grant from the Army signal corps engineering laboratories for studies on using radar and other electronic de vices for forecasting and observ ing weather. Assisting Decker are graduate workers, Julian Pike and Robert D. Hunsucker, Portland; Allen L. Fulmer, Sal em; and Robert Sutton, Medford.
