I II 1'tjultLKJ PLUGS FOR CENTER Jeanne Camano, 30, a former narcotics addict, speaks in San Francisco in behalf of Synanon House, a non-profit narcotics-fighting. group similar to Alcoholics Anony mous. Miss Camano said her $30-a-day habit started not by "a man in a dark overcoat and slouch hat," but by a college class mate, who gave her a "goofball" to enable her to prepare for college examinations. (UPI) o fio Medical Roundup ft rv J ' or- Emenivi CoiifiiiltaHt in Mftdlcint Mayo (halt lUMirffas Profpsitir of MtwHtlM Mayu Clinic (fcflflvtor a.i TrlWimo Syndleatt, 1163) X-Ray Studies of Sknll Often when people write me they say. that, because there has been some question about their mental status, they won d e r why their doc tors did not x-ray their skull. M y an swer is that usually an erdi I nary x-ray film of the shuil feils to show any thing about the brain because the brain is a soft tissue, something like a firm custard, and it has the same consistency all over. Even a brain tumor- has .10 nearly the same dennity as that of the brain ttiet the x-rays ean. not show any abnormal shadow. X-rays show differences in the riwisity or hardness or amount of lime salts or air in a tissue. Occasionally an x-ray study of the brain suggests the presence of a tumor because something hsi pushed to one side a recog nizable part of the brain such as the pineal body. I recently read an article by Dvs. E. Kraft, N. Finny, and A. Schillinger, of Northport, N.Y., who report their x-ray studies of the hea!s of 1,000 patients who had Home mental difficulty. Un suspected conditions were de tected in only 1.7 per cent of these people. Rarely there could be seen an enlarged "sella tur cica," a little saddle-like depres sion at the base of the brain which holds tlie very important pituitary gland. An enlarged solla means nn enlarged Bland, which often means the presence of a little tumor in the glnnd. An over growth of thia pituitary gland was found twice as often in psychotic as in non-psychotic persons. Sometimes skull changes were recngnized is due possibly to a lack of thyroid substance; and sometimes the skull bones were abnormally hnrd, indicating the nrcsence of PaBet's disease ( rare disease as vet not well understood). Unfovt u n a t e 1 y thew few findings did not con tribute much to the imxWrstand ing of an individual palient's mental illness. Uwxpinir lafaat Ik aths One of the most distressing things that can happen to, a woman is to wake up 'in the morning and find her baby did in its crib; even orse is for the woman to wake and find tlR" child dead In bed with her. Then she feels that, she must have rolled over on the child andq smathored it? After this, the par wongin remains for years utterly miserable, full of grief. (hH of self-accusulion, and full f paralyzing feelings of guilt. I haw seen many such wom en wka corid H'"r be happy aigsra. ftenee it is that whenever . 1 raw."! imm or get a sad letter froe one. I (eel sorry fur her that I stop whatever I am doing and spend as much time as I can trying to get her to e that when an autopsy is made on such a child, practically always It is found JJvit'iNriied of some overwhelming acute infection, perhaps a meningitis? a pnei.0 monia, or fiH endocarditis (an inflammation on the inner lining of the heart). In a rare case, the child will 'have died otaflcute leukemia that had produced no recognizable symptoms. usually, the mother snvs. llv all right, so why was he dead in the morning?" Recently, Fredric Rieders, Ph.D., an nounced his discovery that in the brains of many of these sud denly dead children there is a peculiar red substance. As yet, he does not know just what it is or how it works, but it seems to be a poison formed in the body. Studies are going forward so that soon we may know whet it is. In the Army it is well known that occasionally a soldier who went to bed at night apparently well, was found desd in the morning. In his case, too, autop sy generally shows an over whelming infection with an ex tremely virulent germ. As I wrote this, I read about a man of (M who went lo lied "well" and was found in the morning dead. An autopsy show ed a patch of pneumonia and a 1 scattered cancer. I Deqf Penple and Problems I All those who are interested 1 in the problems of the severely deaf and especially in the child j born deaf, will be glad lo study book entitled, "Family and Mental Health Problems in a Deaf Population," published by the Department of Medical Genetics, New York Slate Psy chiatric Institute. Columbia University. This hook consists of many fine chapters written b exports. Much light is thrown on (he genetics of deafness, the mar riages of the deaf, and the fer tility of these oople; their, sexual relationships; their rela tions to the community, their vociuii.nsl adjustments; their occasional delinquency; their psychological difficulties; their treatment by psychiatrists; Iho handling of (leaf psychiatric pa tients, etc. This book will lie a landmark for many years lo come, and it will iie of great interest to those who are inter ested in rehabilitation. Years ago many doctors got into the bad habit of diagnosing "colitis" when women had the fidgets or hysteria. If you want modern information limit coli tis, you may get it in Dr. Al virez' booklet on the subject. Send for it by-enclosing 25 cents and a self -addressed, stnmpad envelope with your request.

The cover clock first appeared on the Bul letin in June, 1M7, with the hand set at 8 minutes until midnight, and was pushed ahead to 2 minutes unlil midnight in 1953 when the United States and Russia tested hydrogen bombs.

(UPI) Race Difficulties Major Factor in Numerous Areas Ity Al. KUETTNER Ul'l Correspondent One thing (hat has fo be said for the current racial integra tion drive is that it has "busted out all over." Who ever would have thought the race issue would have been a major factor ifi a municipal election in Boston or that police would have to haul out an aged riot act lo stop a demonstra tion in a Dayton, Ohio, suburb? Most of Boston's (ilt.OOO Ne groes live in Ihe communities of Koxbury, Dorchester and South End a three square mile area labeled as "oppressed" by the National Association for (lie Advancement of Colored People. Al the si art of the school year, the NAACP set out to break down neighborhood school patterns in Boston in a move that would have permitted chil dren to attend school aoywherc there were seats. The drive hit a stone wall of opposition from school authorities and (he NAACP reacted with demon strations and charges of "de facto" segregation. Deny Accusation Bostonians deny the accusa tion. They point out that, while Koxbury Negroes normally at tend neighborhood schools in which there are only Negroes, children of Italian descent at tend schools in the North End of town that are almost exclu sively for that group. In an other section, they say, Catholic-Irish form Ihe population of schools where that group lives. The whole thing came to a test in Boston last week in an elec tion for members of the school committee. Largely due to the stream built up by the desegre gation issue, the election brought f For awhile Ihe Dayton battle between police and white demon strators was as rough as any in the South. As the NAACP and other agencies step up their cam paigns against so-called "segre gation in fact" in tho non-South, tempers inevitably will dare. This factor was clearly be tween Ihe lines of the U. S. Civil liighls Commission's report Monday to President Kennedy and Congress. The commission, while urginn (he government to end all phases of discrimination, noted there is a broad gulf between the aban donment of enforced segregation and tne achievement of a so ciety In which race or color is not a factor in (he hiring or promotion of an employee, in the sale of a home or in the educational opportunity offered a child. Interest Rates Monetary Topic WASHINGTON (UPI)-Treas-ury Secretary Douglas Dillon said Tuesday that international monetary stability required that all major trading countries maintain short - term interest rates "reasonably well in line with each other." Dillon, in a speech prepared for Ihe annual meeting of (he International Monetary fund, admitted (hat domestic finan cial goals sometimes would limit this emphasis en uniform short term rates. However, he said Hiat it gen erally should he foosible "to encourafi small changes in short term rales in (he interest a turnout of voters larger than:''' PIW resloralion of in- some elections for mayor Candidates who led the fight against (he NAACP over school desegregation were swept (o vie ternational equilibrium.'
