Final Plans for New H0SDital:Medical Science Taking Newer Look At German Measles
To Be Submitted to State Board
A 5
Final plans of the proposed
Sacred Heart Hospital will be
submitted to the State Board
of Health for approval at the
end of December, according to
Sister Luke, hospital admin
istrator. Working drawings and spec
ifications have been completed
and are available for review.
Immediate construction plans
call for three integrated units
the nursing unit, the admin

Former Convict's
Arraignment Set
SEATTLE (UPIWohn Was
ylenchuk, 51, an ex-convict, was
to be arraigned here today on
charges of murder and robbery
in connection with a 1954 bank
holdup here in which a Seattle
policeman was shot to death.
A federal indictment charged)
him with taking part in the rob- j
bery of the Greenwood Branch J
of the Seattle -1 irst National
Bank.
Wasylenchuk was brought
from Canada Wednesday b y
Federal Bureau of Investigation
officials. The move came as
Vancouver, B.C. lawyers were
trying to have his extradition
blocked. They claimed he could
not be extradited because he is
a parolee.
The Seattle charges against
Wasylenchuk were made by a
U.S. grand jury here Sept, 10.
He was arrested on the charges
Oct. 17.
Wasylenchuk was paroled
from a Canadian prison earlier
this year after serving time for
a 1955 robbery of a Burnaby,
B.C. bank. Vancouver attorney
Thomas Dohm said Wasylen
chuk was technically still under
sentence while on parole.
Wasylenchuk was being held
in Oakalla prison in suburban
Vancouver when picked up by
the FBI agents.
proof materials, a reinforced
concrete structural frame and
brick exterior walls. The nurs
ing unit will be four story con
struction, and the other units
will be two story.
Provides 89 Beds
The nursing unit will provide
89 beds at completion, an in
crease of nine beds over pres
ent facilities. Future comple
tion of the ground floor area in
this unit will permit an addi
tion 34 patient beds to be pro
vided with no increase in aux
iliary facillities.
The nursing unit concept is
unique in hospital construction
today insofar as all patient
rooms will be private, a fact
that will permit improved nurs
ing care at less operating cost.
Patient rooms will be individ
ually controlled for complete
climatic comfort both summer
and winter with no recircula
tion of air, permitting each bed
to serve the most strict isola
tion needs.
Each patient room will be
furnished with individaul wa
ter closet and combination
ward robe, lavatory cabinet.
Built - in patient consoles adja
cent to each bed will summon
nurse assistance as vell as pro
vide individual telephone and
television service.
Television Available
Television sets will be avail
able at all rooms, with remote
control operation by the pa
tient. Each bed will be equip
ped with built-in oxygen, and
special care beds will be equip
ped with suction outlets as well.
The administration unit will
provide reception area, wait
ing room, gift shop, meeting
hall and rest rooms for the
public as well as the normal
administration facilities.
The auxiliary unit will in
clude the medical and service
facilities necessary for daily op
eration. The immediate medical pro
gram calls for complete emer
gency radiology and laboratory
facilities and a surgical facili
ty consisting of out patient sur
gery, cystoscopy surgery, two
general surgeries and one spe
cial surgery capable of accom
modating the latest in monitor
ing equipment, post - anesthe
sia room and auxiliary staff fa
cilities. Service Facilities
The service facilities include
kitchen, cafeteria with public
snack bar, pharmacy, central
supply and storage and the cen
tral mechanical room for the
entire hospital.
The mechanical program pro
vides complete heating and air
conditioning for all facilities
with special consideration for
aseptic treatment of air at the
surgical suite.
Internally, the hospital will
operate on a network of special
communication systems to fa
cilitate the best in medical-surgical
care. In addition to the
individual patient nurse call.
plans call for an internal inter
communication system includ
ing paging system, special sur
gery, radiology, laboratory au
dio system, pneumatic tube
system, alerting and alarm
systems. These wilt be supple
mented by the standard tele
phone system. Surgeries will be
equipped with built-in oxide
gases as well as wet process
vacuum system.
Electrical Facilities
Electrical facilities will pro
vide fluorescent lighting gener
ally designed for minimum
maintenance and housekeeping.
A built-in "dry process vac
uum cleaning system will be
provided in the nursing unit.
Emergency electrical genera
tion will be furnished to handle
all neccessary loads in the
event of disruption of normal
electrical service.
All facilities and services
have been planned for possi
ble expansion to eliminate cost
ly demolition at a future date.
Entire cost for the ultimate hos
pital program will be less than
the national average for hos
pital construction, hospital of
ficials said.

111 Science KUitor
XEW YORK (UPI) - Medical
science is having a newer new
look at German measles and
it doesn't at all like the newest
new things it is seeing.
lne first new look was 22
years ago, when this virus dis
ease was considered utterly
harmless. That new look re
vealed it could have disastrous
effects on the babies of women
who had it during the first
stages of pregnancy.
With this exception German
measles still was considered a
harmless disease although in
very rare instances it might
give rise to a passing inflam
mation of the brain.
More Numerous
Now the current newer look
is revealing that these brain in
flammations and other compli
cations involving the central
nervous system are more nu
merous than was supposed.
1 H also is snowing Wat even
!the most diagnostically skilled
. of physicians can have trouble
I telling its rash and other symp
toms from those of measles,
I scarlet fever, infectious monon
i ucleosis, and of side-effects from
drugs.
As a disease German measles
was first described in 1752. Vi
ruses were unknown then and
it was considered a hybrid of
measles and scarlet fever. It
was established as an independ
ent disease in 1815 but not un
til 1962, HT years later, was
the virus which causes it, iso
lated. That shows how elusively
subtle the vims is. it may also
show virologists were not ob
sessively interested in finding
it. For a very long time, after
all, medical science thought it
was only capable of causing a
mild discomfort for a few days.
The scientific heat was put on
the virologists with the discov
ery that it could cause still
births, abortions, and malforma
tions and mental retardation in
infants. Now the heat is intensi
fied by the new, new look.
What medical science wants
from the virologists is a quick
and easy test to show whether a
pregnant woman (or anyone
else) has German measles or
something else within hours of
the appearance of the first rash
Laboratory tests at present are
laborious ami uncertain and
they take davs.

Much of the newest look is
centered in Great Britain where
there was a major epidemic in
1962. An epidemic is ideal for
