THE FIRST CONCERN.
HOW TO TREAT HEAT STROKE
By Dr. Morris Fishbein
In his guide for people who are
living in the tropics, Professor Aldo
Castellani suggests that the first
step in heat stroke is to loosen the
clothing, to get the person into as
cool a place as possible, to put the
person on a bed covered with a large
rubber sheet and then to rub ice
and cold water over the body. In
order to aid heat radiation from the
body, electric fans may be used. At
the same time that the ice is rubbed
over the skin, it is well to apply
vigorously friction or massage in
order to promote the circulation.
One of the dangers of the cold
sponge is collapse. For this reason
the patient's temperature is taken
regularly and when it falls to 101.6
degrees (taken by the bowel instead
of the mouth), it is customary to
stop the application of cold water
or the ice rub, to cover
“the patient wth blankets and to
‘watch him carefully in order that
he shall not collapse.
In some instances serious symp-
‘toms have resulted, because of in-
‘crease in the cerebrospinal fluid.
Hence, in serious cases spinal fluid
is removed by the physician through
spinal puncture. Not infrequently
it is also desirable to remove some
of the blood from the patient by
opening a vein in order to restore
normal circulation.
If breathing stops in this type of
unconsciousness, as well as in any
form of unconsciousness due to elec-
trical shock or gas poisoning, or
some similar cause, artificial respira-
iton should be kept up. This should
not be stopped after a few minutes
because of failure. It
kept up for hours; indeed, as long
as there is any possibility that the
heart and breathing may be induced you that the greatest game Russ a foul tip,
to continue spontaneously.
A person who has had a heat
stroke should not be given large
guantities of food. He should, how-
ever be given small quantities of
nutritious food repea
milk, soups, broths, eggs, and sim-
ilar soft and easily digestible sub-
stances.
PROTECT HEAD AND EYES FROM
SUN TO AVOID HEAT STROKE
‘The ability to keep cool in sum-
good deal of common sense. Prop-
er clothing is important. The head
and the eyes should be protected
from the sun. The clothing should
be light and loose, and should be suf-
ficiently porous to permit radiation
of heat from the body. A cool
shower in the morning and evening
followed by brisk with a
thick towel is stimulating to the
skin, and makes one feel much bet-
ter.
Exercise is healthful, if properly
controlled. Riding in an open car
under the sun is not a suitable ex-
ercise for hot weather. Neither is
four hours of tennis on a sun-beaten
tennis court. Al forms of exercise
in hot weather should be mild. Golf,
horseback riding, boating and swim-
ming are among the sports prefer-
red, but even these are best taken
early in the morning or late in the
afternoon rather than in the heat of
"the day.
Adequate amounts of sleep do
much to prepare a person for the
special stress associated with sum-
mer conditions. The use of plenty
of water, at least eight glasses a
day, has been mentioned repeatedly.
Food is best taken in small quanti-
ties at more frequent intervals than
in large quantities three times a
day.

fanned, the next two grounded out;
and Jim Pierson, that usually de-
pendable six-inning pitcher, cracked
a. the very start. He passed a
man, hit another, got the next on a
pop foul—but then came Shreve
Hamer, Eimville's famous left-hand-
ed slugger. Pierson threw two wide
ones, then in despair struck the next
pitch in the groove; Hamer slam-
med it to right centre for three
bases, two runs came in—and the
Acacia crowd began to yell, “Take
him out!”
Russ listned to them thoughtfully
If he took Pierson out he'd have to
go in himself; but he couldn't last
eight innings on his head and his
reputation. He went over to the box.
tried to calm Pierson—not very suc-
cessfully, for he passed two more
men. One more pass, one more
hit, and they'd have to take him out.
But then came a circus catch in
the outfield; Hamer scored after it
but it made the second out. The
next man slammed a liner to right
but Russ snared it and the inning
ended with Elmville leading 3 to 0.
Russ opened the second with a
hit, but his team mates couldn't ad-
vance him. Then Jim Pierson pass-
ed the first man on four pitched
balls. As he touched the bag and edged
‘down the base line, Russ was think-
ing hard. Nobody could blame him
much for leaving Pierson in a little
longer; all Acacia knew that Russ
could hardly pitch eight innings.
| Pierson let in another run or two
before he was taken out, then it
would be Pierson who had lost the
game. Acacia couldn't blame Russ;
and Stukely would believe Russ had
lived up to his bargain.
“Ball one!” yelled the umpire. And
then, “Ball two!"
“Stukely be hanged!" said Russ,
and walked over to the box. “Sorry,
Jim,” he said. “Let's see what I
can do with these birds from now
on.”
A moment later he was warming
up, with a confident grin. The bat-
ter looked worried; he was facing
|the great Russ Fleet. But Stukely,
on the Elmville bench, didn't look
worried at all.

Fleet and he'll tell you that the
game that took most out of him
was his last one—that struggle at
Elmville. Inning after inning he
tossed them in without a thing on
‘the ball; and inning after i

or swung too soon, or waited for a
curve to break and watched a crip-
ple split the plate. !

(innings, up to the ninth; eight hits
.and no runs. Always there were
men on bases; but always in the
‘pinch Russ knew what these small-
town batters were looking for and
threw them something else; and they
popped cut, or bounced into easy
double plays. And meanwhile Acacia
got a run in the third, another in the
sixth; Elmville led, now, only one
run.
The first Acacia batter in the
eighth got two bases on a wild
throw; there followed a pass and a
sacrifice; Russ came up with men
on second and third, and one out.
Logically, the Elmville pitcher would
have passed Acacia’s hardest hitter
in such a situation; but Russ guess-
ed that Stukely had told the pitcher
to pitch to him, and that he expect-
ed Russ to do his duty. Now was
the time to show Stukely. Russ
faced the batter, grinning; took two
strikes while he waited for the one
‘he wanted. Here it was! He
swung—and missed a foot.
A mile beyond center-field
fence was rising ground with a road
running down toward the park; just
as Russ swung the sun, glinting on
the windshield of a car coming
down the road, had flashed in his
eyes. Stukely was certainly getting

Russ pulled down his cap, wiped
the perspiration off his forehead.
Hamer was dangerous. It would be

pitch to a less dangerous man. But
Russ had to get it over with; he
didn't dare waste a pitch. He glanc-

grinned at Shreve Hamer. He'd been
pitching high and close in to Hamer

there. This time Russ tried one

watched it go past for a strike.

Hamer swung on the third, but it

Russ stretched out, began his
wind-up; poised an instant, he
straightened out, hurled the ball
and knew, the instant it left his
hand, that it was going wrong. It
was going right where Shreve Hamer

and swing; saw a queer flicker of
light on his face; heard the click of
the thump of the ball
sticking in the catcher’s mitt for the
third strike. And then, ripping the
silence, the grinding rumble of a
starting car.
A sudden roar of blended exulta-
tion and fury; in a wave the crowd
poured out on the field; Russ saw
men running toward him, and Stuke-
ly, his hand on his hip.
The crowd fell away from a green
car coming straight across the dia-

Behind them was a confused shout- |

“Stop them!” But nobody wanted
to get in the way of the car; and
Stukely, his gun in his hand, dared
not shoot into the crowd. A mo-
ment, and they were out of the gate
on the hway.
“Neat Work!” Russ panted. “Where
are we bound for—Acacia?”
“Florida,’ she said, watching the
speedometer swing past sixty. “But
we'll be safe when we're over the
State line; you're only charged with
speeding and they can't extradite
you for that.” She looked back.
“Motor cycles,” she said. “But we're
