t'Parrot Fever" Case
In State Confirmed
Department OF Health Advises Against Buying or
Keeping ParrakeetS

fected parrakeet which died in
Connecticut last August did not
have such band and was presum-
ably a "bootleg' bird, the bulletin
said. Even when the birds are
tagged as healthy, safety is not as
sured, for it is not possible to de-
termine positively the presence or
absence of psittacosis virus except
by autopsy.
Prevalence of the disease in par
rakeets is shown in the bulletin by
the statement that of sixty-six Cali
fornia aviaries which were ex-
amined for psittacosis forty-four or
two-thirds had infected birds.
Should anyone wish to dispose Of
parrakeets they already have, the
bulletin advised that they be killed
and then cremated so as to destroy
| the virus. Other birds such as
| canaries are known to be suscep-
tible and even chickens have been
known to acquire the virus. Mice
| are also susceptible to the dis
ease and might possibly become in
fected by eating parrakeets that
| have died of the disease.

With the development this
month in Connecticut of a case of
psittacosis or parrot fever" the
state department of health in it's
weekly bulletin to-day issued a
warning to Connecticut citizens
against the purchase and keeping
of parrakeets.
It has been found, the bulletin
reports, that even birds which
have been examined by health
authorities and which have been
marked with leg bands indicating
freedom from the disease, have
carried the psittacosis virus and
have been responsible for human
infection. Parrakeets and parrots
may carry the virus for months
and even years before showing
symptoms of the disease, so exter-
nally they may appear to be per-
fectly healthy.
Confirmation of the psittacosis
diagnosis in the present case was
made last week by the laboratory
at the Rockefeller Institute for
Medical Research in New York
city, the only laboratory on this
side of the continent where tests
for parrot fever" can be made.
Definite indications of psittacosis
were found both in the patients
Isputum and in the California reared
birds which were involved in the
investigation.
The family in which the case de-
veloped had acquired two para
keets from a relative. Slightly
more than two weeks later one of

day a member of the family be-
came i'll. The physician became
suspicious and requested the test
which resulted in confirmation of
the diagnosis and in finding evil
dence Of psittacosis virus in other
birds taken from the store from
which the parrakeets had been or
iginally obtained.
This was the second time infect
ed parrakeets had come to Con-
necticut during the past few
months. Last summer, some par
rakeets that had been shipped
from California to New York and
reshipped to Connecticut died af-
ter reaching Connecticut custom
ers. One of them was examined
and the virus of psittacosis or
internal organs. Upon recommen-
dationo the health authorities all
other parrakeets in these shipments
were destroyed.
Under the California system of
supervision, all birds inspected by
Representatives of the State Board
of Health have small metal bands
put about their legs so they can
be identified and the place of or
igin can be determined. The in

rising tribute was paid the late d.

Reports for the year revealed
that the membership of the "Y"

Reports on athletic activities
were made by Seymour Squires,
swimming team manager; Edgar
Wyatt, volley ball manager; Wal
ter Pease on badminton; Mahlon
Sears on bowling and John p. Coe
on activities at the Y camp at Ban
tam Lake. Mr. Cox reported also
that Mr. White who gave the Y the
privilege of using the camp site
there had agreed to go $3.50 in
making the community house at
the lake over. 1t will be used for
either dancing or bridges, he said,
and one room will be made where
there are four now.
Fritz Klambt reported the best
year so far in gym activities, saying
that about $4,000 made use of It
last year. John McGroary, boys
secretary, also made his report,
thanking the local scout council
for permitting junior members of
the "Y" who aren't scouts to at
tend Camp Pershing, the scout
camp. The report of e. E. Hotch-
kiss, treasurer, was read and ap-
proved.

The membership receipts amount

ministration was the principal
item, $7051.05 having been spent
in the fiscal year for this purpose
and the next major expense was
$3435.42 in the physical depart
ment.
President Harold w. Brown pre-
sided. A chicken dinner was
served with ladies of the auxiliary
acting as mattresses. Rev Edward
r. Hance of the Congregational
church said grace. Because there
was not the necessary one-third
members present either physically
or by proxy, no action was taken
on a proposed amendment to the
bylaws. Mr. Brown pointed out

SCARED BURGLARS

that the youngsters could have
seized in the window were some
rings valued at 81 each. The police
kept watch on the store during the
night, but the youngsters failed to
return.

CLUB GROUP

Growth of music appreciation in
California and Of California mu-
sicians was the topic of an interest
ing paper given by Mrs. r. j. Clev-
enger at last nights meeting of the
Ten Thousand club IS Music section
held with Mrs. Gerald Dermody,
536 Holt avenue.
Mrs. Clevenger based her talk on
notes from her father IS scrapbook,
her father being organist at Stock
ton in 1850. A graduate of Held
elburg, Charles Fl. Schultz came to
California in the gold rush days
and saw the first piano reach the
state in 1851 in time for Christmas
after a 10 months trip from the
east. This one piano offered much
inspiration and aided in the devel-
Opment of many Of California s
first musicians.
Many interesting bits of history
were read from the scrapbook to
the intense interest of the men,
bers.
Another enjoyable feature of the
program consisted of three excel
lent piano selections by Mrs. Ed
gar j. Hargrave. The members
responded to the roll cal by giving
musical current events
At the business meeting Mrs. L.
a. Madden was chosen chairman
