8 A MAIL TRIBUNf, Medforrf, Oregon, FrMiy. January 23, 1939 Fluoroscopic Use Curb Urged Los Angeles -(Science Service)- Because it exposes the patient to as much as 1,000 times the radiation as stand ard X-ray film procedures, using a fluoroscope to diag nose heart disease is an un necessary hazard. Dr. Eliot Corday, cardiolo gist at the University of Cali fornia at Los Angeles Medi cal School, has written an editorial in the American Journal of Cardiology point ing out that in most cases the X-ray film procedures fur nish as much diagnostic in formation as the fluoroscopic examination. It also is a per manent record. An average fluoroscopic ex amination in the doctor's office may expose the patient to from 10 to 37 roentgens (radiation units) as compared to 0.002 roentgens for film procedures. The National Bureau of Standards has set maximum permissible doses for patients under 18 at 1.5 roentgens per year and for those over 18 at five roent gens annually. The solution to the entire problem may be very near. Dr. Corday observes. The . technique of X-ray movies, technically known as image cineroentgenography, is now nearly perfected- This tech nique offers a minimum of radiation exposure, and the heart specialist can review the movies over and over without any exposure. For the present time, to limit radiation exposure, he advises that the use of the fluoroscope be reserved for those patients revealing an abnormality on chest X-ray film. About 2,000 different makes of automobiles were marketed in the U.S. before 1912, only a few surviving today. r r-' ' - 1 s- V s l - I fa MEETING IN COUNTY JAIL at Ventura, Calif., Mrs. Elizabeth Duncan kisses son, Frank Duncan, whose wife, Olga, she is accused of slaying.

'JpTtiout Pre cedent ..?venjmong Cadillacs It has long been understood that the one true way to judge a Cadillac is to measure it against another Cadillac! And yet, even this historic yardstick is not completely applicable for 1959. For this newest "car of cars" is without precedent even among Cadillacs! Standing regally at the curbside, in motion on the highway, or making its grand entrance at some distin guished event its majestic new styling is always the sub ject of unstinted admiration. Cadillac's new fabrics and leathers are breath-taking to . behold ... appointments are crafted with a jeweler's care . . . and its interiors are so spacious that entering and leav ing are accomplished with wonderful ease and grace. And the car is easy to handle, so obedient and respon sive to the touch and so smooth and silken in action that even the longest journey is a pleasure to anticipate and a joy to recall. Without precedent, did we say? Well, we'll have to confess that there are some ways in which this new Cadillac is very much like its distin guished" predecessors. There is the great quality of its craftsmanship, for instance ... its remarkable depend ability . . . and its extraordinary economy of ownership. But with these happy exceptions, Cadillac for 1959 is clearly in a class all of its own ! So whether you are looking forward to your first Cad illacor your fifth or even your tenth you have a great discovery ahead of you.

Spiced Fruits For three cups of excellent relish for serving with meats or chicken we recommend this spiced fruit relish featur ing plentiful canned fruit cocktail. ' Drain juice from a No. 2V can fruit cocktail into sauce pan; add one-fourth teaspoon dry mustard, one-eighth tea spoon ground, cloves, one- eighth teaspoon cinnamon, and one tablespoon lemon juice Boil just until reduced to one-half the original amount. Add fruit and heat thorough ly. Serve as suggested above. Seasoning Suggestions . For Popular Pork Chops Pork supplies are increas ing right along. We can con fidently look for pork specials and much of the new pork is leaner, thanks to increasing numbers of specially bred, meat-type" hogs and the packers' practice of trimming excess fat. When it comes to cooking pork chops, authorities on meat cookery frown on broil ing, frying or grilling; advise that the most satisfactory way to cook them is by braising. which means moist cookery alter browning. Braising keeps pork chops tender, juicy and delicious with meat almost falling off tne bone. When seasonings are added, the flavors cook right into the meat. Pork re sponds favorably to a wide range of seasonings. Here are a few suggestions. As liquid use water, tomato juice, mixed vegetable juices. uamiea xomaioes, orange or pineapple juice, California Sauterne. Sprinkle browned chops with marjoram, sage, curry, chili powder or thyme before adding liquid. Top each chop with a slice of onion. Spread browned chops with thin barbecue sauce: add little water to skillet bottom to prevent sticking. Place apple slices on top of browned chops and sprin kle with sugar and some ground cloves. Add water, Rub chops with cut cloves of garlic before browning; spoon a little soy sauce over them after they are browned. Add water. Cook chops in commercial sour cream thinned with 'a little water; top chops with sliced green onions including tops. Salami Supper Dish In a little hot fat, lightly brown one cup diced salami. Add two cups whole kernel corn, one-fourth cup finely chopped green pepper, one tea spoon prepared mustard and one can mushroom soup, un diluted. Mix well and sim mer for 15 minutes. Serve over toast points. Canned Foods Lead Parade of Best Buys Canned Foods are among our most important conven ience foods.
