- -V MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER S, 1962 Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF "TWE OBITUARY columns recently cited the passing of a -1- lawyer who was famous for winning acquittals for ladies who had bumped off their better halves. The story guca mat me leu-lieaaeu star of a Broadway mu sical once phoned him to say, "I'll need your serv ices. I'm planning to i shoot my no-good hus band sometime this week." "You'll have to put it off till next month," the lawyer advised her. "I'm so busy right now I can't handle another case." A reckless young spend thrift startled his friends by announcing his engage ment to the richest lady in town a formidable party, verv proper and straight-laced. "I wish you luck," said a pal of the bride groom, "and I have a hunch you'll need it. I suppose you realize she'll make you give up smoking and drinking." True enough," sighed the bridegroom, "but I ha-1, to make a choice.

Often my as sistants,, on re- the X-ray man the report that a gallstone was present, perhaps in a normally functioning gallbladder, were satisfied that the cause of distress had been found. But in scores of such cases, a question or two showed that the gallstone was "silent" and had never caused either pain or indigestion. What then was the trouble? Often all I had to do to find out was to ask, "Why do you look so sad? What terribly distressing thing recently happened to you; what broke your heart, or what great sorrow or disap pointment, or great loss or worry came to you?" Commonly, the woman (or man) has then told me of a disaster that ushered in the symptoms. Perhaps she learned her husband had lost his love for her and wanted a divorce, or he had taken to drinking so much he was going to lose his job, or her daughter had come home with a baby and no husband, or the brain of her adored grand daughter had not developed as it should, or her grandson had taken to stealing cars and get ting himself arrested. Sometimes in these cases the first and best thing the wise physician can do is to save the woman from an unneces sary operation. The next thing to do is to try to give her the hope and courage with which to pick up and try to carry on again. Perhaps I can induce her to go back to being social again, and perhaps I can get her to think again of others besides herself. Sometimes 1 can talk her out of just sitting and brood ing. If she is full of sorrow for a loved one who perhaps drop ped dead, I may be able, by answering patiently all of her questions, to get her to see that it is worse than useless to spend her days trying to fig ure out how she could have avoided the death by doing this and no! doing that. I try to get the woman to stop Pickin' Pears News and Notes From Camp White The Domiciliary is taking on a new spurt of activity for better or worse." From the amount of interest among the members, there is a better atmosphere. Mr. Woolford, the new can teen manager, who came here from San Fernando hospital. making the most of the new service counter in the cof fee shop. This feature was ded icated last week. Flowers and curtains were noticable. The new table arrangement is an added touch of interior deco ration. He advises that many new articles are planned for the store. Two new member clubs have been formed among the nucleus of artists in the fields of photography as well as painting and drawing. The photography club has been re inforced by several experts in cluding the team of Burnett blaming herself and to see that what happened could not possibly have been avoided that in no way can she be held at fault, and hence she must stop feeling guilty. If I can only get the woman to stop analyzing her problem, and to go back to living sensibly and usefully, I can cure her pain, her insomnia, and her feel ings of illness. Especially when there is a religious angle to her grief, I wish that my patient could have the help of my wise and kindly friend, that very able hospital chaplain, the Rev erend Granger E. Westberg of the University of Chicago. A while ago I told here o! his splendid book "Minister and Doctor Meet (Harper). Now he has written a paper-back called "Good Grief" (August ana Press, Rock Island, 111., $1.00) which I am sure would be very helpful to thousands of grief-stricken people. Dr. Westberg tells how when first we are bowled over by grief, we go into a state of shock; then we express emotion; we feel guilty; some of us, without justification, fill up with feelings of hostil ity and resentment, which do us much harm. Perhaps for a while we are unable to work; then if we are wise we will struggle to face reality again and to adjust to it. We must find hope, and with it we must carry on. Dr. Westberg has noticed that a mature religious faith helps many of us to go through a terrible experience, and to get back to a useful life again. On those rare oc casions when I feel greatly depressed, the sure cure is to go into my office and struggle to help someone who is troubled. When I succeed in cheering him up, I find my own depression is gone. 3Teen-Age Boys Drown in Oregon By United Press International Three teen-age boys drowned Tuesday in Oregon. Roland Wing Lee, 17, Port land, drowned during an afternoon swim with a friend in Lake Oswego. Clifford Neal Ernquist, 17, Portland, was lost in the John son Beach area of Sauvies Island. In Marion county, Joseph Charles Severin, 13, Mt. Angel, drowned when he and some friends went for a swim in the Pudding river during a lunch break at a berry field. and Gowen and Charles Mat thews, who attended the Jack sonville Jubilee and brought back a true to life picture of the Astronauts musicians. The band, incidentally, received a letter of praise and thanks for participating in this festival. The Recreation department is losing Gene Reynolds, who carried forward the spring drive in sports as well as dra matics and tours. He will be succeeded by R. C. Tugman, being transferred from the post of domiciliary assistant. The library is thankful that a reading room has been open ed across the hall. It was get ting too crowded for comfort in the wing containing all the books. The two sections housing the men in wheel chairs and needing attendants are now allowed to receive visitors among the volunteeis. who will add this to their list of activities. Italy To Buy U.S. Military Supplies A 5 Rome -tlPD- Vice President i sideration to an expected re- T.vndnn B Johnson was told ! quest for such aid from today that Italy would try to reduce the U.S. overseas dol lar drain by increased mili tary equipment purchases in the United States, informed sources reported. Johnson conferred with Prime Minister Amintore Fan fani and Foreign Minister At tilio Piccioni on a number of topics including possible Itali an aid to Greece and Italian American cooperation in space projects. The sources said the vice president was assured by Italian leaders that they would give sympathetic con- I Greece. I They also agreed to con sider increasing purchases of Firm Options Land Near River Mouth Portland - HOT - A Kansas City, Mo., firm W4S reported today to have signed an op tion on more than 30 acres of land in the Rivergate area, about a mile from the mouth of the Willamette river. The firm, Ashgrove Lime Co., was reported considering a major lime reduction plant on the fill lands. equipment for Italy's NATO forces from American manu facturers. It was pointed out that the American balance of payments problem still re mains serious and that more Italian buying would offset some of the $100 million the United States spends annually in Italy for military purposes. Johnson and Piccioni signed an agreement on plans for a scientific research project utilizing American rockets to launch Italian satellites from ocean-based platforms. The vice president flies back to the United States Friday to end the two and one-half week trip. His arrival here Tuesday was in quiet contrast to the frenzied demonstrations which occurred in Lebanon, Iran, Turkey, Cyprus and Greece, which welcomed Johnson with parades and cheering crowds.

About every kind of art Is represented at White City, from commercial to fine art. There are not many artists, however, and Lee Brown of MAT has been trying to bring them out of hiding by form ing an art class which meets on Wednesdays. The working artists are all good, in fact excellent. This is attested by the two western scenes of the Charles M. Rus sell school which now hang in the foyer at the theatre entrance. The paintings are signed J. A. Strand. Strand is serving as instructor of the art class. Many of the members do not know who does all the clever signs that are posted around recreation. Mike Pre- vost is the "pro" who does this work. He is busy from morn till night with his activ ities. He is better known as an MC on stage at the theater and at the ball park. Then too, he does the silk screen work for Dominews. Oh, yes and Mike is also American Legion post commander. One of the most active groups of members is the new ly organized Post 192, of the American Legion. The Post was started in June a year ago and now it has signed up 151 charter members. The drive for charter members was in the hands of Adjutant Ralph J. Baldwin, who beat his rec ord in another Oregon post. Plans for the coming year include backing a Junior Le gion baseball team. Most re cent activity was the cook-out at the picnic area in August attended by 110 Lcgionaires.
