These findings help to ex plain why, in the commonly seen cases of very painful shingles In older people, anes thetization of the affected skin docs not help much. The cause nt the pain is higher up ''l the nervous system. Many cases are now being reported in which a person who has been exposed to chicken-pox develops shingles. The chicken-pox virus and the shingles virus appear to be the same. What is sad is that as yet, there is no good treat ment for the pain that some times follows an attack of shingles in an old person. All that can be done is to give pain relievers and, at night, sleep makers. l.upus Lryimmaioiui Recent studies have shown that many patients with lupus erythematosus must have suf fered injury to their brain be cause they experience seiz ures, enmial nerve malfunc tions, and mental changes. Dr. Raymond. D. Adams of Boston pointed out that in his large series of cases, an epileptic type of seizures was ihc most common reason for the patient's consulting a neu rologist. Some of the patients have a curious illness something like the delirium tremens of an alcohol (seeing snakes), and some present a clinical picture suggesting schizo phrenia. What the basic in jury to the body is in this strange disease is not yet known. It is sad thai we doc tors know so little about it. Recently several cases were reported in which one of the first symptoms was loss of blood supply in the fingers of Cunaultant In MerJIrlna Mayo Clinic Emeritus Prtifeimr of Medlclna Mayo chnlo UUflctcr and Tribune lyndlcata, 1962) '- the patient.

An Amateur Chutist Dies in Accident San Jose, Calif. -IUPII- amateur parachutist was kill. cd Sunday when another chut ist fell through his parachute and shredded it 2,500 tool above the ground. Paul Baitx, 25, Berkeley, died at San Jose hospital a few hours after the accident. The other chutist, James Nich olson, 37, San Jose, who was Injured, was in fair condition at the same hospital. Witnesses said the two men, members of the Golden Gate Skydivcrs club, were appar ently preparing to puss a baton when the accident occurred. EXPERT DIES . New York - IUPH - Morion L. Rubinow, 35, international ly known bridge expert, died Monday after a short Illness. Adelin D.-Just because I don't date, my parents make me feel I'm peculiar. Mrs. E. D.-We believe a girl of 14 should show some inter est in boy friends. Adelin D. - What's wrong with spending my week ends and spare time with my fam ily or my girl friends? Or even alone, curled up with a good book, a stack of maga zines and recordings? My par ents, especially my mother, make me feel there's some thing the matter with me for turning down boy-girl parties. The truth is I'm friendly with both boys and girls in school. Out of school the boys my age don't date much. They have their own clubs and teams and go places together. I can't see running after them, or any other boys, the way some of my classmates do. Maybe later when I'm 18 or 19 I'll go out with young men probably the intellectual type so I won't have to pre tend I like Fabian and rock-'n-roll. - Mrs. E. D. I'm certainly grateful that Addie docs so well at school, keeps up her piano practice and holds on to a few nice girl friends. What worries her father and me is her snobbish, uppish altitude toward boys and the firmness with which she turns down invitations to "mixed" parties. She acts like a man-hater. Of course, she's a generally friendly person, devoted to us and her young brother. But we and her classmates are no substitute for the social circles every young lady should move in. Addie shies away from the opposite sex, except when school studies are in volved. If only she'd doll up, for get the books for once and at tend a nice parly, she'd see what fun she'd have. The Council: Adeline sounds like a levelheaded kid and, since they say certain good trails skip a generation, prob ably takes after her grand parents for common sense. What's (he rush, Mrs. D.? This mother talks as though she had a recluse of 40 on her hands instead of a perfectly normal adolescent of 14. How refreshing to meet a teen ager who's not yet in the three-deep crowd at the mas cara counter. Not yet for her the competition to be the "hol iest" number on the dance flood. Adeline is standing pat on her right to be young. We're all for Adeline here. Time enough for sophistica tion and, perhaps, disillusion. Right now Adeline wants to move along leisurely, savor ing the simple things around her. Forcing the "party atti tude" on youngsters often has pathetic and awkward results. Ever watch 14-year-old boys at a mixed party? For want of knowing what to do with themselves, they spend most of the time playing catch with the potato chips. At any rate, Adeline prefers not to dance with them, or play kissing games. She'll wait. In an enlightened turn about, Mrs. D. can become a booster rather than a thorn in Adeline's side during this dif ficult (and courageous) hold out. How about inviting a few of her non-dating girl friends in for an overnight pajama party pillow fights and all? Or insuring her fun-times via picnics, trips to TV shows and Interesting buildings? Trying to hurry Adeline in what should be a natural awakening is like forcing her to consume a week's food at one sitting. Quotes From the flews By United Pren International Pnompenh, Cambodia Prince Norodom Sihanouk, criti cizing Western "unwillingness" to hold a conference at Cam bodia to guarantee its neutrality, and threatening to seek Soviet and Red Chinese garrisons: "I do not want to get any more very friendly, very sugary letters saying they 'recognise and respect' my country. I want respect but I also want guarantees for my country." . United Nations, N.Y.

Orange, Mass. Parachutist Milan Knor, who defected from the Yugoslavian team at the world sport parachuting championships and asked political asylum: "I have been planning this for two years, ever since I learned lha; the parachuting championships would be held in the United States." Collingswood, N.J. Mrs. Kathryn Caya, whose iate fath er, Peter J. McGuire, founded Labor Day, commenting on what he would think of the modern observance: "He was a very kind hearted and sympathetic man.
