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.

'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.
We suggest yqu visit your dealer soon for a personal
demonstration of this brilliant new Cadillac.

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. The progressive
canned foods industry gives
us the magic key to a treas
ure chest .of foods number
ing beyond 1300 (everything
from abalone to youngberry
juice); the product of 2700
canneries putting up the har
vest of more than IVi million
acres of our best farm and
orchard lands. Theres' a con
siderable pack, too, of fish
seafoods, meat, poultry, milk
and- other staple foods essen
tial to daily well-being.
January is a time for in
voicing, for clearing out ware
houses in preparation for new
season packs; a time for "spe-
cialing" canned foods in
stores; a time for knowing
the personal satisfaction of
kitchen pantry-stocking and
money-saving. Canned foods
keep indefinitely in a cool
dry place.
Best buys are likely to be
peas, tomatoes and tomato
products, sauerkraut, apple
sauce, fruit cocktail, sliced
pineapple and tuna. There are
also excellent supplies of as
paragus, green beans, beets,
cranberry sauce, peaches,
pears, plums, salmon and sar
dines. Read the Labels. Labels are
the windows of the can; tell
what is inside. Note ingred
ients and weight. Buy accord
ing to expected use, family
favorites. Labels often suggest
product uses, too; give new
ideas for serving.
Best Vegetable Buys. A
wide assortment of fresh
vegetables continue coming
into the markets. Bunched
vegetables, beets, spinach and
turnips, are in particularly
good supply. Cabbage, cauli
flower, celery, carrots, cu
cumbers, green peppers, . let
tuce, onions, winter squash
and potatoes are among other
top vegetable buys.
Fruit Department. Apples,
including red and golden De
licious, Winesaps and New-
towns, are in abundance with
correspondingly good prices.
Winter pears are at their peak
and should be enjoyed now.
Avocados, tangerines, bapan-
as, oranges and lemons are
available at reasonable prices
