pher Del Sesto of Rhode Is
land, said:.
"The rescue efforts demon
strated by Neil for the length
of time in the fog-enshroudea
sea with his own life endan
gered from the time he star
ted from shore, and the uncer
tainty of the time when assis
tance would arrive, u ever,
distinguishes this rescue from
the type which is made in one
swift action."
Neil kept Catherine Bu
chanan of Ontario, Canada,
afloat in the heavy seas for
nearly 30 minutes while tides
pushed them away from shore
before life guards could tow
them to safety.

During the last IS years, as

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

in many of the families I saw
no sign of that. To show what

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
