Medical Panel to Discuss Radiology
The first medical panel dis
cussion of the 1960 television
series, sponsored by the Jack
son County Tuberculosis and
Health association, in cooper
ation with the Jackson Coun
ty Medical Society and sta
tion' KBES-TV, will be pre
sented at 5:30 p.m. Monday,
Jan. 18.
Three physicians and sur
geons whose practice is lim
ited to radiology will discuss
the values and dangers of
x-rays and other types of rad
iation on the half -hour pro-'
gram.
Early-day x-ray equipment,
sent here from Portland . for
the program, will be shown
and compared to present-day
equipment with the improved
techniques and safeguards
now .employed by radiolo
gists. Many of the misconceptions
and prejudices concerning
x-ray since its discovery . in
Bavaria nearly 65 years ago
will be discussed, and the uses
of x-ray, then and now, will
be compared. Various types
of radiation will be classified,
and many of the most com
mon questions asked by lay
persons will be answered by
the radiologists. The discus
sio will conclude with an ac
count of what science pre
dicts for x-ray in the future.
Appearing on the panel
will be Dr. Earl L. Lawson
and Dr. Alan S. Markee, Med-
ford, and Dr. William S
Judy, Grants Pass.
A total of 516 more persons
received chest x-rays at fhe
Jackson County Tuberculosis
and Health association spon
sored clinic at Sacred Heart
hospital last year than in
1958, according to association
officials.
Some 3,258 out-patients
were x-rayed last year, com
pared to 2,742 in 1958.
Although there were fewer
confirmed new cases of tu
berculosis in the county last
year, the association said the
total pathology from the clin
ic reached a higher percent
age than in 1958.
11 New Cases
Eleven new cases of TB in
the county were recorded at
the health department last
year, while the number of
confirmed new cases totaled
23 in 1958. The number of
Area Drivers Get
Licenses Suspended
Salem The department
of motor vehicles has re
leased names of 461 drivers
whose licenses were ordered
suspended during the period
beginning Jan. 4 and ending
Jan. 8.
Length of suspension varies
depending on charges in
volved, recommendation of
court, discretionary action by
the department or require
ments of Oregon law.
The department warned
drivers that the penalty for
driving while suspended is a
jail sentence of no less than
two days and up to six
months, and there may be im
posed a fine up to $500. Un
der licensing procedures, this
will also result in an addi
tional year of suspension.
Among those suspended in
Jackson county were:
cases now on the register at
the healtlf department totals
120, the association said. In
all cases, a constant check is
maintained.
Total pathology for 1959
was 409 out of the 3,258 pa
tients x-rayed, or about 12.5
per cent. About 1.8 per cent
of the total number showed
conditions suggestive of tu
berculosis. Although many of
them were cases of old or
healed disease, a number re
quired further study to elimi
nate active TB, the associa
tion noted.
A total of 106 patients were
I referred to their doctors for
various heart conditions fol
lowing chest x-rays, and 158
were advised to consult their
physicians about miscellane
eous conditions. Another 84
persons required further
study for conditions other
than possible tuberculosis.
Largest Clinics
The association reported
that the largest clinics were
held in April, May, August
and September, and the
smallest in November and
December. The latter is part
ly explained by the fact that
there were fewer clinics dur-
Ex-Pig Farmer on
Presidential Trail
Secaucus, N. J. - (UPD - Vet
eran campaigrer Henry Kra
jewski, once a pig farmer, is
on the presidential trail again
with outcries against "piggy
deals in Washington."
Krajewski, 47, has announc
ed his candidacy for presi
dent. He said he would tour
the nation by covered-wagon
to California and then north.
He obtained a nominating
petition from the office of the
secretary of state.
Krajewski's running mate
for vice president will be Mrs.
Anne Marie Yezo, a 41-year-old
housewife of North Ber
gen, N. J.
"When the Democrats were
in they let the horse out of
the barn, and the Republicans
have done nothing to get him
back," he said.
OLCC To Study Food at Outlets
ino t.hos months ripnaiice nf
c -
About 500 persons visited
the clinic during September,
the ' association noted. Since
all teachers and school em
ployees are required to have
either a tuberculin skin test
or a chest x-ray they make
up the largest percentage of
patients during August and
September.
The chest x-ray clinic has
been active for five years,
and is one of the few such
clinics in the state, the associ
ation said. It represents a
permanent facility in the
community and many phy
sicians send their patients
there for chest x-rays as a
routine part of annual phys
ical examinations.
Members of the Sacred
Heart hospital Providence
Guild furnish clerical assist
ance at the clinics, with three
or four women helping each
week. The chest x-ray com
mittee of the association . is
responsible for the s clinic's
supervision, and reports to
patients and physicians each
week.
Portland-HJPE-A proposal to
spell out the minimum
amount of food available in
liquor-by-the-drink outlets
has been taken under advise
ment by the Oregon Liquor
Control Commission.
The commission Thursday
held a hearing on the matter
attended by about 50 persons.
The proposal would call for a
regulation establishing a mini
mum food volume and also
require that kitchens be oper
ative during the time the bar
is in operation.
Those speaking against it
said it would not be economic
ally sound to keep the kitchen
open during all hours liquor
is sold.
At present the regulations
specify that liquor licenses
may be issued on premises
where food is cooked and
served.
