AGE 8A Monday, November 11, 19G3 HERALD AND NEWS, Klamalh Fa Hi, Oregon THE DOCTOR SAYS Appendicitis Hard To Detect Bn Young Ut w. g. bhandstadt, m.d. Newspaper Enterprise Assn. Why do we have an appen dix? This Utile blind alley is an offshoot of the junction of flie large and small intestines. It may have served a purpose in our prehistoric ancestors, but Us main function now is that of occasional trouble maker. Although operations for ap pendicitis are not as common as they were 50 years ago, the disease still occurs. Although it i$ not as common in persons under 15 years of age as it is in those who are older, it still occurs in young children and infants. The importance of appendici tis in children lies in tiie fact that the disease is harder to recognize in children. When ap propriate treatment is delayed, serious complications may lead to death. The reason It Is hard to rec ognize in children and infants is that they cannot communicate their feelings as accurately ae adults and their symptoms are much more variable. For example, the infant wilh appendicitis docs not always have a fever or a severe pain in the abdomen. Some abdomi nal pain, often mild, is almost always present and the child usually vomits at least once. More commonly, the child gen erally is irritable, restless and refuses to go to sleep. These are vague symptoms, and do not prove that the appendix is to blame. Dirksen Doubts Key Bills Yill Be Passed This Year WASHINGTON (UPl) - Sen ate Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen predicted Saturday that the Senate would not pass either of President Kennedy's "big" bills this year civil rights or the tax cut. Dirksen said It would lake until about the middle of De cember to finish public hear ings on Uio $11 billion tax cut measure, then "at least three weeks" to draft language hi closed session. "I think it is a fair bet that there cannot, just mechanically cannot, be a lax bill this year" . - I'M ,.Mfi- is" : v." k ; v X) 0 HlSl QUALITY m Tie QuOtf Prof" Phone: TU 2-4577 YOU JUST PONT GET DOXOL BRAND QUALITY AND SERVICE FOR LESS! If your child is irritable, and feeding him makes him worse, you should call your doctor. I want to stress this because an inflamed appendix can be come obstructed and the result ing abscess can burst in 1 e s s than 24 hours from the onset. When Hie appendix bursts, in fection spreads throughout the abdominal cavity. The re sult is peritonitis and this is still a serious and often fatal complication. Although your child's irritability may be only a touch of colic, a cold or the measles, you cannot afford to take a chance. Since feeding a child who has appendicitis can make him worse, he should not be fed. Giving him a laxative is even more dangerous because it causes all the muscles of the digestive tract to contract. Con traction of the muscles of the appendix Snduccd by giving a laxative has caused many an inflamed appendix to burst. If the child has been taking anti biotics for any reason, this may so mask the symptoms as to make an early diagnosis al most impossible. Because of She potential risks, therefore, surgical removal of the appendix should be under taken as an emergency as soon as the diagnosis is made. Appendicitis is definitely less common in children than it was 40 years ago, complications are less commonly seen and the death rate is lower. the Illinois legislator said in a radio interview with Sen. Jack M, Miller, K-Iowa. The Senate Finance Commit tee, where the bill has languished since the House passed it Sept. 25, published a list of witnesses Friday that will carry its public hear ings on the measure through Dec. 13, one week before Con gress' Christmas "vacation be gins. Thus far, the committee lias completed four weeks of hearings on (ho high prior ity administration bill. s&&RMUM NEW DOXOL propan is produced and rflned to rigid tpacificationt to assura you a claan burning fuel.

Klamath Falls Instant 'Home Brew1 Possible, By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPH Per haps you have been dreaming ol a brave new world where you can go to the kitchen sink, turn on a water spigot, open a box of capsules and mix yourself a glass of "in stant beer." If so, you arc in for a rude wakening. It is my sad duty to report that this type of home brewing, while theoretically possible, is not likely to come about any time sunn. For one thing, the Internal Revenue Service is against it on grounds that it would enor mously complicate the collec tion of beer taxes. For another, there are fears that turning the United States into a nation of do-it-yourself brewmasters would create fur ther turmoil in the beer indus try, which has enough troubles already. It appears, therefore, that in the foreseeable future beer drinkers will have to be content to buy the stuff in bottles and cans. The pros and cons of instant beer came up for discussion recently at a hearing by the House Ways & Means Commit tee on the taxation of beer concentrates. Beginning next month, the revenue service will, for the first time, permit beer compan ies to ship beer in concentrated form from one place to anoth er.

H ' 1 1 brewery can whip up a batch of beer, remove a portion of the water by a freezing process, and send what is left to a bot tling plant. At that point the water would be put back again and the re constituted beer would then be bottled and sold. Like most innovations, the concept of instant beer has be come hotly controversial. Even the use of the term "instant" is an issue in the dispute.

They contend that reduced transportation costs for concen trates would make it possible for American breweries to compete in overseas markets for the first time. The committee was assured that reconstituted beer would be as tasty as ever, if not more so, and that the flavor would last even longer.
