95 Cases Confirmed
Since early this year, how
ever, there have been 95 laboratory-confirmed
cases of
salmonella hartford poisoning
and 42 suspected cases which
were not definitely confirmed
by laboratory tests.
The epidemic seems to have
reached a peak in late March,
the public health spokesman
said. The last confirmed case
was reported in April.
Cases were reported In 18
states - Connecticut, Florida,
Georgia, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Mich
igan, Minnesota, New York,
North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsyl
vania, Wisconsin, Missouri,
Maryland and Delaware. The
heaviest incidence was in the
upper Middle West.
Canada also had an out
break of salmonella hartford
poisoning at the same time.
No Clue Turned Up
Intensive investigations by
Public Health Service epi
demic detectives here so far
yielded no clue ag to why the
rare ailment suddenly broke
forth over a wide area.
There were no fatalities,
but many of the victims be
came quite seriously ill with
fevers ranging up to 103 de
grees and severe diarrhea.
Some had to be hospitalized
and fed intravenously for pe
riods as long as three weeks.
The majority of the victims
were children between the
ages of 2 and in.

The event was held in the
Employee's club.
Blue and lavender pansies,

focused attention on the long
serving table. Small bouquets
scattered throughout the room
carried out the theme.
These eye-catching decora
tions were arranged by Mrs.
F.. H. Femiite, assisted by
Mrs. Monroe of dietetics, and
the flowers were those which
the members had grown on
the grounds under the direc
tion of W. K. Snook, the new
gardener.

afternoon Mrs. B. I. Paul and
Mrs. C. W. Twinstrup poured,

Since July, 1955, a great
change has come about in the
conduct and function of the
domiciliary program.
To add meaning and direc
tion to the members' daily
schedule, a planned living pro
gram has been established re
quiring constructive employ
ment of the hours available
over and above that required
for prescribed therapeutic
regimen.
An activity planning board
functions at the domiciliary,
having the responsibility of
formulating and maintaining
a plan of activity for each vet
eral admitted for domiciliary
care. The physician member
of the activity planning board
makes the evaluation of the
ability to perform construct
ive assignment.
Formulates Plan
The activity planning hoard
formulates a plan of activity
for each member that com
prises constructive assign
ment and leisure time activi
ties. The plan of activity em
bodies a daily performance of
at least one specific construc
tive assignment to the station
operation.
Any person or group is
welcome to visit the domicil
iary and arrangements for a

Charles Edward Chapel, the
Assemblyman who said he
was only joking, went to truil
on charges of falsely report
ing explosives aboard an airliner.
The Palos Verdes Estates
Republican admitted re
marking his briefcase con
tained nitroglycerine and a
gun. But Chapel testified he
made the remark to a seat
mate. Stewardess Judy
Churchill, however, said the
statement was made to her
twice.
The Sacramento to Los An
geles flight March 15 was
held up 53 minutes while air
line officials and police ex
amined Chapel's briefcase,
and interrogated the veteran
lawmaker.
Former Gov. Goodwin J.
Knight appeared as a "char
acter" witness in Chapel's be
half. He termed the assembly
man s reputation as excellent."
Despite Chapel's claim the
whole incident was a joke,
prosecutor G. N. Tocher em
phasized that a 1961 state
statute, for which the law
maker voted, fails to provide
for such humor.
Elsewhere, there were these
developments:

well formed, beautiful little
Chinese girls," the hospital
reported. They were the
daughters of Mr. and Mrs.
Franklin Lowe of San Fran
cisco. They had one placenta
and umbilical cord at birth,
but completely separate circu
lation systems, separate
hearts and separate intestinal
tracts.
