Some of t n e persons have had the dizzy spells for a year or more. Usually they are getting at tacks of 'ver- xjl?J I t i g 0" (dizzi- j SI I ness) in which Aivirra either the per son feels as if he is spinning around or the room seems to spin around him. In the worst cases, the dizziness brings nausea, vomiting and even falling down. People with such a severe form of a Meniere's disease sometimes get so desperate that some ask for the opera tion in which the nerve to the little balancing mechanism -which is associated with the inner ear - is cut. If only this part of the schools and universities nerve bundle could be de- throughout Oregon and Wash ington. Med.ord Marine Co. 2060 W. Main Phone 773-1188 Romanoff Will Close Restaurant j Beverly Hills, Calif. -(UPD-Restaurateur Mike Romanoff, who gave up his dubious claim to Russian royalty to become an American citizen, celebrated the 23rd anniver sary of his restaurant Tuesday night by announcing he would close its doors Jan. 1. The natty Romanoff told a news conference: "This is a rather sad occasion. But costs are prohibitive and with the new tax conditions it makes it completely impossible. "I will miss the restaurant. One misses bad habits. "There was a time when restaurants were the center of social life throughout the world. That era is gone. Peo ple are too controlled and too interested in other things. The pace is too fast. There is an undercurrent of anxiety and people arc not interested in what they eat." Romanoff said he might open a book shop and com plete a book he is writing. He said he will not open another restaurant. destroyed with out injuring the function of the other part which has to do with hearing, the operation might be a good one, worth trying; but since in some cases the nerve to the hearing part of the inner ear is already slightly dis eased, and loses function after the operation, the patient loses his hearing on that one side of his head. Because a number of these people have afterwards sued the surgeon and recovered large damages, several nerve surgeons tell me that they no longer will perform this oper ation. Another way of tackling the problem Is to operate and destroy the inner ear, but this means an end to hearing on that side. Little Known One great difficulty with the treatment of Meniere's disease is that we physicians know so little about the cause, we cannot gel many autopsy examinations because people do not die of the disease. Sometimes what looks like Meniere's disease ran be due to a "little stroke" in the brain; or it can be due to in jury to the nerve that runs from the brain to the Inner ear, or it can be due - accord ing to one authority - to liltle blisters in the lining of the I Dear Santas Please bring our family a new G-E appliance for Christmas. I want a new G-E TV for my room and my big sister wants a Stereo Record Player. My brother wants a portable radio and Daddy would like a new G-E Freeezr because he says we could save lots of money if we had a freezer. Mama would like a new G-E Range or a G-E Washer and Dryer. If you don't happen to have some in your work shop you can get them at Home Appliance Co.'s BARGAIN STORE. They have all kinds of beautiful new G-E Appliances. I hoard Mama tell Daddy you might not be able to afford to give us a new appliance, so I would be just as happy if it was one of the many used appliances like they have at the BARGAIN STORE.

The BARGAIN STORE will be open till 9:00 Tonight and Friday lip! semi-circular canals (that give us our sense of balance) or it can be due to swelling of the lining of these canals, or to the degeneration of the "organ of Corti" (the essential hearing mechanism in the inner ear). Occasionally there is an acute temporary form of vertigo which seems to be due to a virus. According to Meniere, since his disease is due to an injury in the inner ear, the person with true Meniere's trouble should get some deafness in one ear. Many of my older patients (60 or over), when I send them to a good ear man come back with the report that their hearing is normal. In many such cases, I get a history that the trouble start ed after a brief dizzy or woozy spell, and that this was followed by some loss of memory, with perhaps some change in character - some loss of ability, or some irri tability or irascibility. Then I suspect that the cause of the trouble was the plugging up In the brain of a tiny artery. i Usually in these cases, the distress is not so much a feel ing of spinning around as the loss of the feeling of sense of balance and position in space. I think that usually, with little strokes, the symptoms clear away in a day or two. In cases of true Meniere's dis ease they can be troublesome for years. Spell of Dizziness Many people past 50 or 60 who haven't Meniere's disease will occasionally experience a brief spell of dizziness when they quickly get up from their bed and stand up. This is not so much a sign of disease as It is in a sign of a slowness in the aging body's reaction to sudden changes in position. Fortunately, In many cases, Meniere's disease is not se vere. Only In occasional cases are the attacks so violent that the person is made utterly miserable. Then he may be afraid to drive a car. Some times there are troublesome ear noises. Treatment is usually satis factory. Some people have tnld me that they felt beller . after Roing on a salt-poor diet, and hence this can be tried for a few weeks. For years the drug most commonly used has been nico tinic acid (or nicotinamide or niacin). This causes the face to flush and fill with blood, but the result of taking this drug is often transient, and so I have no faith in this medi cation. I was just reading an article written bv Drs. Norell and Slahlp In Cumrtnn u.hn eiA 'E that they had used Hydro chlorothiazide in the treat ment of 57 patients with Meniere's syndrome. They gave 25 nig. by mouth 3 times a day for 3 or 4 days, and then from 15 to 251 mg. a day for two or three weeks, together with some postassium chloride - after the second week. The doctors said the pa tient's hearing generally im proved, and 75 per cent of them were cither freed of their spells or obtained some im provement. I hope their re sults are confirmed. 1 -v Ttw.'5..J raw t .'s f' s ' . , ' $ GOD TOLD HIM Gabriel Richard Trifari, 30, front, Is in custody of police as he leaves his home in Howell Township, N.J.
