MEDFORD, ORECON The Medical Roundup l f .. r.mariLua Cut 0 Urintfir Inloctieni I wish I could give a good answer to the people who wrllc asking me what they can do to set verms their urine, ins a cys- 'I I causint i,4Ste;i A tll' (inflam 'STA matlon of the WJ B bladder). I am I afraid lean I not, except to say that if the I infection has shown i t self resistant to treatment, the per son had better find a good, well trained urologist (kidney and bladder specialist) who will know from abundant ex perience how to tackle the many problems that are In volved in these cases. I myself did not know how difficult the problem of clear ing up a cystitis can be until I read two big articles on the subject by Dr. William J. Mar tin of the Mayo Clinic. Much depends on the type of germ that is causing the trouble. Some gorms arc easy to kill off, while others are very hard to kill. Often the urologist must make sure that there isn't some defect In the kid neys or bladder that is keep ing the cystitis going. Sensitivity to Penicillin A laboratory expert can now take a drop of blood from a person's fingertip or car, he can put this blood in con tact with a solution of peni cillin, and within a few min utes lie can say whether or not the person is highly sen sitive to the drug, says a Phil adelphia dermatologist, Or. Walter B. Shelley. What happens Is that if the person Is sensitive to penicil lin, certain blood cells called basophiles will rapidly go to pieces. If the value of this tost Is confirmed by other men, It should be very useful, Family Council Editor's Nntt: Tit ramlly Conn, rll consists of a Juris?, a psychia trist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a wmnen'e editor, and two writers. Karn artlrle Is a luminary flt an ai'lual caie history. The council reports on prnniems inat have heen dealt with by respon sible agencies and counselors. (Copyrliht IDfi3 General Ftatures corp.) Mrs. E, A. - My daughter prefers her mother-in-law to me. Penny W. - It Just happens we have many tilings in com mon. a Mrs. E. A. - Penny and her husband live in Texas b u t come North once a year and j visit both mothers. We live within a mile of each other. What annoys me is that I see so little of my daughter - she spends most of the lime over at her mother In - law's house, with the excuse that Mis. W. has "something spe cial" on. It's like a slap at me. Penny W. - I'm surprised at my mother's childish show of Jealousy. The amount of time wo spend with her is no index of my affection for j her. Bob's mother Is a book-1 reviewer and 1 love to talk I about books with her; Mother 1 is a dear, but her talk nev- i er changes from the same old 1 gossip and the same old com plaints. The Council - Well, the Is sue is Joined: Shall it be "Fall Safe" with the senior Mrs. W, or the dangers of night air with Mrs. A? Penny must choose and defend her choice in terms to convict) her moth er that love and loyalty are not Involved - Just Intellectu al curiosity. We doubt that Penny can swing It and we'd like to propose a few ways to turn the trips North Into more of a lift for her mother . . . Some of lhat egghead and bookish talk can take place In Mrs. As parlor as well as Mrs. W'a. Can't you Invite your mother-in-law over to your mother's, Penny? Often a person who doesn't partici pate in thet talk gets much pleasure from the nearness of loved ones. Also, Penny must avoid hurting her moth er by unfair comparisons. Each of these mothers has her own shining strengths. Bask ing In those of her mother, Penny must never underrate their value . . . A for Mrs. A., she might welcome the grime nudge from Penny which may send her lo bone up on What's New in NATO, instead of on how many pup pies Cousin Lulu'i pomeranl an had. Emeritus Consultant tn Medicine Mayo Clinic Kmerllus Professor itt Slediclna Mayo Clinic (Reamer and Tribune syndicate, I83) and it should save many per sons from running into seri ous trouble, As Dr. Shelley says, some few people arc so extremely sensitive to penicil lin that even the injection of one drop of the drug can make them very ill. A promising drug - inosine - for the treatment of por phyria was mentioned recent ly in the Journal of the AMA by Dr. Robert Aldrich and his associate at the University of Washington. In some cases, the drug appears to have giv en dramatic relief to the patients. If you have been told you have colitis, it could mean only that you simply are nerv ous. Understand this problem better by reading Dr. Alvarez' 25 cent booklet, COLITIS. Send for it by enclosing 25 cents and a self addressed, stamped envelope with your request mailed to Dr. Walter C. Alvarez, Dept. MMT, Box 957, Dcs Moines 4, Iowa. Dinah Shore Weds In Surprise Rites Redlands, Calif. tUPli Tele vision star Dinah Shore was married Sunday to Palm Springs, Calif., contractor Maurice F. Smith only two days after the blonde singer picked up the final divorce papers from her first marriage. The wedding, attended by Miss Shore's two children, was as much a surprise to her friends in Hollywood as her separation from actor George Montgomery in De cember of 1961. The couple refused lo say where they would honey moon, but Smith said they probably would spend a week driving through northern Cal ifornia. The quiet civil ceremony was performed at the home of Superior Judge Joseph Ciano here. Besides Miss Shore's children, Melissa Ann, 15, and John David, 10, others attend ing were Smith's two sons, Dexter, 12, and Dana, 5. Melissa Ann was maid of honor and Dexter was the best man. "I hadn't thought of getting married this soon," the 45-year-old singer said, "but it is a woman's prerogative to change her mind." Senate Debates Mental Health Washington - IIPII - The Senate was scheduled to be gin debate today on a $840 million mental health bill de scribed by President Kenne dy as a "bold new approach" for treating the mentally ill and retarded. Chairman Lister Hill (D Ala.) of the Senate Labor and Public Welfare committee which studied the measure, predicted the bill would be I approved. I The legislations calls for the I federal government to initiate and help finance a system of community mental hospitals which would gradually re place traditional state hospi tals and allow patients lo be treated in their home environ ment near friends and rela tives. Construction of the hospi tals would be a long-term af fair and most of the program's costs would not begin until 1965 or later. Funds also would be pro vided for training of hospi tal staffs, inslrucling teach ers of handicapped children, research centers for mental retardation and research grants. Portland - ll'PI) - Mis. John Sclireiber Jr. of oPrtland was elected president of the Ore gon Association for Retarded Children Saturday.

Owners indicated they would salvage the vessel and the lumber. A Coast Guard spokesman said much of the lumber had washed overboard Sunday but was to be salvaged when it hit the beach. The stern of the barge broke off. Inventions Part I A .9 Odds Against Inventor Getting Rich Said Formidable; Dreams Often Die By HARRY FERGUSON Washington - iliPH - Every day 350 American inventors apply to the federal govern ment for a patent and auto matically become mental mil lionaires. They have rosy dreams of quick wealth, but as the days, months and years roll by they are driven to the conclusion that roulette and crap-shooting may be bet ter bets. The odds against an invent or getting rich arc formidable. There is almost a 50-50 chance that somebody thought up the gadget before he did and al ready has obtained a patent. In any case his application goes to the bottom of a list of 108,000 others which are awaiting a decision in the U.S. Patent Office, and on an average it will be between three and three and a half years before he will know how he stands. Only the Beginning But his troubles are only beginning. Once he gets the patent, he has to persuade somebody to manufacture and sell his gadget and here, again his chances are only a lit tle better th.i 50-50. Too many people invent inmgs that nobody happens to want at the moment. The classic example is Jo hannes Gutenberg, a German who invented movable type In the middle of the 15th cen tury. He marie crude block letters and printed a 28-page book in Latin advising peo ple how to make speeches. ' Then he ran out of money and got a loan from Johann ' Fust, a banker. Gutenberg j then printed some Bibles, but , they didn't sell well. The His-! calculation in Gutenberg's j Cristoforo's pianos rotted plan was that very few people the warehouses knew how to read and there wasn't any market for print ed pages. The banker fore closed on him, seized all of his equipment and Gutenberg wound up working for the archbishop of Mainz at a sal ary of une new suit of clothes a year. Has Same Problem Long atlcr the inventor's death a German, Gottfried Silbermann, read about Cris tofori's pianos and besan to build them. He got rich fast. The Germans happened to like pianos. American industry is high ly competitive and the natu ral assumption would be that Bartholomeo Cristofori ran i corporations would slug it out into the same problem when lie invented the piano in 1709. The Italians didn't like the piano, preferring the d..lci- mer and the harpsichord, and with each oilier in an attempt to get an invention lhat would improve their product. But In 1926 F. W. Davis invent ed power steering for auto mobiles. It made a car tn-j finitely easier to handle and j obviously was a strong selling point to women drivers. But just the oilier day Davis, in Boston, told in' the Wall Street Juurnal an amazing sto ry about his invention. As soon as lie had perfect ed the device he look It lo Detroit and demonstrated it to 10 automobile companies. sometimes they appear lo be : None was interested. In 19 completely blind when a new lie stirred some interest in idea - patented and proved - Cadillac Motors, he said, and is put before them. j a tentative licensing agree ment was drawn up. But Cad iliac decided the cost of tool ing the invention was too high and the agreement was al lowed to expire Davis said he then went to the Bendix corporation, which agreed to experiment but only on pilot models for buses and trucks. Sometime in 1940 Davis said he got the Buick Motor company interested in power steering. "It looked like we were ready to go." he said, "but then came Pearl Harbor and the end of civilian automobile production.

When Chrysler In troduced a power steering model, everybody wanted one and I began to make some money." Gets First Patent Before adoption of the U.S. Constitution the American colonics and states issued patents and the first one went to Samuel Wlnslow of Mas sachusetts, who in 1641 de vised a new method for man ufacturing salt. President George Washington signed the first federal patent law on ' April 10, 17D0, and since then the U.S. Patent Office has granted 3,090,044 applica tions. Most of them have been for gotten, and that is the rea son few inventors get rich. But when a man comes up with the right thing at the right time, the money rolls in like the tides of the ocean. Take Cyrus H. McCormick, for instance. His father owned four farms in Virginia, two saw mills and a blacksmith shop, and was constantly tinkering with the idea of a machine for harvesting his grain. Solves Problem ' Young McCormick went to work on the problem and in 1831, at the age of 22, submit ted his plans to the family blacksmith. What he had done was to solve the problem of how to keep stones and stumps from breaking the knives which cut the grain. He did it by protecting them with a string of metal fingers which brushed aside the rocks. Before 1831 a man with a scythe could cut about half an acre of grain a day. Soon McCormick's reaper was cut ting 16 acres a day, even though It was horse drawn. McCormick had hit the jack pot and he moved to Chicago, where he put up a factory and sold reapers as fast as he could make them. One by product of Mc Corm'cks Invention was tuat the Chicago lawyers never had It so good. They went up ana down the land suing peo ple who were Infringing on McCormick's patents. When an Inventor has to spend lots of time in court, he knows he has it made. 89c LOW, LOW PRICES PLUS GOLD BOND STAMPS Marshmallow Treats Busy Baker QQa Pkg. 09U Farm-Fresh CREAM 0' THE CROP FRESH GRADE Always extra fresh at Safeway.
