I wrote up this study in a book (Practical Leads to Puzzling Diagnoses, Llpplncott, 1958). My friends the psychiatrists thought that this appearance and re-appearance of alcohol ism in certain families must have been due to a poor en vironment or to imitation, buj in many of the families I saw no sign of that. To show what I mean, one of my patients, Four Die as Car Rams Abutment Ellensburg, Wash. - (UPD - A small foreign car crashed into a bridge abutment on U.S. Highway 10 near here Wed nesday, killing three women and a three-month-old boy.

SUyo cllMe Cmerltut Proteaior of Medicine Mayo Cllate a brilliant man, who in his forties quickly drank himself to death, had as alcoholic relatives, a grandfather and two uncles whom he hardly knew, because they lived in a far-distant city. Now, I read that Drs. Q. E. McClearn and D. A. Rog ers, of the University of Cali fornia, have found a strain of mice, the members of which prefer alcohol to water. Most mice prefer water. Here, then, we have clear-cut evidence of a hereditary fond. ness for alcohol, perhaps like that which shows up in some members of alcoholic human families. The Doctor Who Could Not Call an Ambulance I was just reading of a New Jersey woman who has been fined $200 and costs for her refusal to interrupt an 18-minute gossip with a neigh bor, and stop chatting long enough so that a doctor could call an ambulance to rush a man with a bad heart attack to a hospital. Five times the doctor begged her to let him have the phone for a minute, and each time she told him to go to a certain very warm place! Many a person who has had this doctor's experience with a telephone gossiper, especi ally when he was trying to put through an Important and hurried long-distance call, will rejoice that the doctor lodged a complaint, and that the judge punished the woman. A few hundred times, when I have had to call someone long distance-in a hurry, and especially someone who was waiting anxiously for my mes sage about a sick relative, I have found the line busy. I knew then that the person would gladly have Interrupted her conversation if she had only known I was trying to get through to her. I have often wondered why the telephone company does not use a certain brief musi cal tone to warn a person that someone is calling the num ber from a long distance. I am sure the company must .miytiwM )ei , Easter bonnets lead the parade For ell glrle The new ihapet of spring I Bonnets, bands, derbies, wide brims.
