Sri yIPreday Feoruary 12, 1942 * YOUR HEALTH x | From the Board of Trustees of the Medical Society of the State of Pennsylvania of which the Cambria County Medical So- diety is a component . . . One of the most important reports following the bombing of Hawaii on December 7 is the medical report. A Honolulu physician has just re- ported procedures used in treating penetrating wounds of the head at that time. During the early part of the first World War the death rate from brain injuries was over 60 per cent. The late, great American surgeon, Dr. Harvey Cushing, lowered this fig- ure to 28 per cent by improving the operative technic and case manage- ment. Death rate from brain wounds in second World War should be even less than 28 per cent Following the Pearl Harbor bomb- ing attack, a newer drug, sulfanila- mide, was used on head injuries with marked success. When first arriving at the receiv- ing station the patient's hair about the head is clipped widely and closely. The edges of the lacerated wounds are cleaned with soap and water. Large bleeding vessels in the lacer- ated scalp are clamped with a hemo- stat or by local pressure or tieing a piece of rubber tubing about the head. A temporary dressing is then ap- plied after the wound has been filled with one of the powdered sulfanila- mide drugs. Strangely, few of the Pearl Harbor patients with penetrating wounds of the brain were brought to the receiv- ing station in an unconscious state. This was explained by the fact that the flying projectile was traveling so fast that the head was struck, perfor- ated and penetrated before the brain as a whole had time to be vibrated. The physician also said that the force applied to the head was concen- trated in such a small area compared to the entire skull dimension that generalized acceleration of the brain was not produced. Medical science will remember Pearl Harbor and out people will pro- fit by what it taught physicians about the treatment of head injuries. With Te Supply of rubber care; fully curtailed it is to be hoped thaf the number of bouncing checks issued this year will be materially reduced I'm Telli It's the Gre Since The BE IT’S ‘DRY!

TAPROOMS CLOSE AT SAME HOUR UNDER ‘WAR TIME’ The Liquor Control Board of Penn- taprooms will close at 2 a. m., under Eastern War Time, just as before business as in the case of Daylight Saving Time. Chairman Frederick T. Gelder said the Liquor Control Board system automatically comes under the new standard time which supersedes state laws and local ordinances, and has nothing to do with Daylight Saving Time, formerly optional with munici- palities. “The hours during which liquor and malt or brewed beverages may legally be sold are prescribed by the Liquor Control Act,” Gelder said. “Such hcurs are based upon standard time, and when standard time is advanced ng You! atest News Johnstown Flood! by an act of Congress, the time so FRIENDLY CIT fixed becomes the official, legal time of this commonwealth. | “All retail licenses of liquor, malt or brewed beverages in Pennsylvania are required to observe the new stand. ard time in the opening and closing of ‘their licensed establishments.” THE TRUTH We are still ving in the age of miracles!
