HEALTH DEPARTMENT'S MALARIA ALERT LAUDED Pennsylvania's Department of Health received a “well-done” from the U.S. Public Health Service after {the recent malaria alert sounded | by the Federal agency. The message was from Dr. Hans Lobel, Chief of the Malaria Surveil- lance Unit of the National Com- municable Diseases Center in At- lanta, to Dr. W. D. Schrack, Jr., director of the State’s Division of Communicable Diseases. ation between the State and Federal health agencies is routine, but the alert sounded over the weekend of August 17-21 touched off an emer- gency mission that provided know- how that may be required again. Malaria is virtually unknown in the United ‘States, thanks to public health measures long in effect against the anopheles mosquito, virtually the only carrier of the disease. Malaria may, however, again be- | come a public health concern in this { country because of recent inter- national developments. These de- velopments are the return of U.S. military personnel from Vietnam, the return of Peace Corps and var- ious other U.S. foreign aid per- sonnel from malaria-infested regions. and the increasingly widespread travel of American tourists. Six ‘hundred and seventy-eight cases of malaria in returned per- sonnel from Vietnam and other areas were reported in 1966 and another 1,355 have been observed already in the first seven months of | 1967, according to Dr. Issac F. Gratch, state epidemologist. The alert two weeks ago was | triggered when public health officials {in New York discovered a nurse in a New York Hospital suffering from falciparum malaria, a severe variant of the disease. Elizabeth Banks Trains At Lankenau Hospital Elizabeth Susan Banks, daughter lof Mr. land Mrs. William T. Banks of Shavertown, is one of 79 girls who ‘will begin classes at the Lankenau | Hospital School of Nursing in Phila- delphia on September 11. The girls will undergo six months of pre-clinical training before prac- tical experience on the patient floors. Lankenau, a fully accredited school, offers a three-year course in nursing. Lankenau was one of the first hosptials in the Philadelphia area to establish a professionally trained nursing service. In 1884, when most hospital nursing was performed by untrained domestics, it recruited a nursing staff from the Institute of Protestant Deaconesses in Germany, | a training school which lists Flor- | ence Nightingale among its alumnae. Fifteen years later the deaconesses started a training school at the hospital with a few “pupil nurses.” | As it marks its 68th anniversary, the | Lankenau School of Nursing has an | enrollment of more than 200. Regular and continuing enor) | Investigation developed that the | nurse had been a member of a tour group sponsored by Gettysburg Col- lege and had probably been in- fected by a mosquito or mesquitos in India or Pakistan. It was quickly determined that of the forty-six members of the | group, twenty-two were residents of | Pennsylvania and the remainder | from nine other states. Dr. Lobel notified the Pennsyl- vania Department of Health so that [the twenty-two, Pennsylvania in- | divduials and their personal physi- | cians could be warned of their pos- | sible exposure, since the incubation [po had not yet expired. Dr. Schrack and Dr. Gratch, aided by Theodore H. Weinstein, epidem- iologic intelligence service officer on loan to the state from the USPHS, | fanned out the alert t, the Depart- ment’s regional medical directors. These were Dr. Clayton B. Mather in Pittsburgh, Dr. Joseph J. Wunsch | in Reading and Dr. William T. Lane lin Philadelphia. They, with the public health nurses, were able to find all of the i potentially exposed travellers and | their personal physicians by late Friday afternoon. All potentially exposed persons are now believed out of danger, but I the State Health Department is pre- pared for another alert—just in | case. Gregory L.

The AAA warns drivers that the behavior of children in traffic is often unpredictable; that kinder- garten and primary children, many | of whom are on their own in traffice for the first time, are 3 major cause for concern. “Young children have litle or no comprehension of the need for safe- ty in traffic,” stated C. J. Spitale, Assistant Manager. ,‘When we con- | sider that traffic accidents claim more lives of children aged one to fourteen than any other single i cause, it becomes apparent that | measures must be taken to alleviate this very real problem.” Parents are urged to make sure "their children are familiar with traf- i fic aids and use guarded crosswalks jas much as possible when going to and from school. Children can and should learn basic traffic rules and safeguards, but the driver bears the major traffic responsibility.
