Your Health
BY DIR. NORRIS FISHBEIN

Regardless of how much we
try TO educate people about dis
eases and conditions that affect
the human body, the structure
and workings are so complex
that IL is. frequently hard to
understand them.
Moreover the language OF
medicine requires many techni-
cal words that are sometimes not
in the ordinary dictionaries.
Now here is letter from
regular reader in Indiana who
wants to know about aneurisms:
Dear Doctor: have been read
ing your articles for a long
time about the various ailments
of humanity, their causes and
treatments, but have not yet
seen any article about aneur-
isms. l shall be looking for
ward to description Of this
condition, its causes and prefer
able treatment.
An aneurism arises from the
stretching of a weak place In
the wall of a blood vessel. In
the walls of blood vessels there
are layers of elastic tissue. They
enable the vessels to dilate and
contract. Sometimes thick
walled rubber balloon when
blown up will develop an extra
pouching out at some point
where the rubber has been
thinned out. This can also hap
pen to a rubber tire which has
been weakened by either a
physical or chemical injury.
The most frequent cause of
the thinning out Of the wall of
a blood vessel Is an infection
which destroys a part of the
elastic tissue. Sometimes. how
ever. a physical injury may
cause ii. / have been an aneur-
ism result from a bullet which
.scraped the wall OF large
blood vessel. Sometimes an
aneurism may develop immedi-
ately after birth because por-
ton Of a blood vessel may not
have grown properly.
OF course, If an infection in
the body is attacking the walls
of the blood vessels. that Is a
serious matter and should have
attention. However, even cur
ing the infection will not restore
the tissue that has been de-
stroyed.
A person with an aneurism
must be exceedingly careful not
to injure the thin sac filled with
blood. because a breaking Of the
sac may result in a serious
hemorrhage. Sometimes it is
possible by the use of surgery to
open the tissues down to the
point where the aneurism exists
and then to tie off the blood YES
sells or to remove the aneurism.
Some years ago distinguish
edesurgeon developed tech
nique which involved the inser-
ton of coiled wire inside the
aneurism causing the blood to
clot inside the aneurism and thus
preventing rupture. Certain
~, any person who has been told
gy a competent doctor that an
aneurism is present in one of
his important blood vessels
should have regular attention
until the condition is brought
under control.

New Speed Signs
Due On Highways
Before October
Survey For Placing Mark
ers Completed 8 Months
After Law Is In Effect

Maryland's new speed limit
signs, about 5000 of them, finally
are to be placed on the highways
Ezra B. Whitman, chairman of the
State Roads Commission, has an
nounced that the markers will be
installed before the end of Sep
TENDER.
Since June l the new speed
limits have been in effect, but the
placing of the signs awaited a
Statewide survey to decide where
they should be located. State police
and employees of the Commission
er of Motor Vericles now have
completed the survey.
The new limits are twenty-five
miles per hour in business areas
instead of twenty; thirty in subur-
ban zones instead of twenty-five;
fifty on single-lane open highways
instead of forty-fve, and fifty-five
on dual highways.
According to Mr.. Whitman,
many curve and crossroads warm
ing signs will be relocated at the
same time. New type markers,
with larger refectors to make them
easier to see, will be placed along
the new Philadelphia road, the
Richie Highway and the Lincoln
Highway. Signs taken from these
roads will be used on smaller roads
in the State.
Objections to increased limits on
many highways were made by
members of the Roads Commission
on the grounds that such speeds
are dangerous. Mr.. Whitman sug-
gested that the commission be
given the authority to set limits
on roads too narrow or in such
condition that a fifty-mile limit is
unsafe.

Employment Service
Set New Job Mark
During Last Month

Prosperity still is around that
corner, but a happy note was
sounded the other day when the
Maryland State Employment Serv-
ice announcedeit had filled nearly
1900 jobs in private industry dur
ing August. This is an all-time
high mark, officials of the service
said.
Another 1904 jobs We're obtained
OH public works, bringing total
placements for the month to 1896.
Baltimore, of course, led in total
private placements with 1,641.
Cumberland, with 235; Salisbury,
with 221, and Frederick, with $50,
led the county Offices in placements
in private industry.
"The number of placements not
only indicates an augmented bust
ness activity in the State, but also
shows a gratifying increase in the
use of public employment service
by private employers" said D. L.
B. Fringer, director of the State
service. "With more than a quarter
of million applicants recorded on
our files, more than 10000 of whom
are actively seeking work, we are
in a better position than ever be-
fore to adequately serve employ
ers of the State.

A plot Revealed

Events prior to the fight were not
especially charming. Mr.. Mead,
whose conversational speed is at
least equal to his fighters ring pace,
spent great deal Of time before
the match limiting of a sinister plot
directed against his man. Mead
claimed, in brief 20, 900 word state
ment, he was warned before the
fight that his man would lose five
rounds on fouls. He also stated
that his authority was one of the
commissioners friends.
Armstrong partisans felt that DON
ovan was all too conscientious in
chalking up ring infractions. In their
opinion, the title should not have
changed hands.
Donovan, in clarifying his stand,
said that he knew "that some day
Henry would lose the lightweight IT,
tie if he kept punching low"
Donovan was more than backed
up by Bill Brown, member Of the
New York State Athletic commits
sion, who said: Instead of penaliz-
ing Armstrong, l would have thrown
him out Of the ring"

The lack Of heavy hitting was evil
denced by the low 9-all score.
Players all ran to and from their
positions. It took only AZ seconds
to play an inning. The nine runs

suit of few accidentally made hits
past the outfielders, who played in
close.
The manager of one team had to

had to get back to workout only
after pitching 500 innings.
One other hurler was on the
mound for 800 innings. Then a re-
lief pitcher saved his arm, If not

The game was played on four dia-
monds, with lights available for
night play. By shifting from one
diamond to another, the players sell
dom had to face the sun. Sand
witches were furnished during the
game, and some startling retrieves
were made by players who clutched
ham-on-rye between their teeth

The previous record was held by
two New Philadelphia, Ohio, teams
which played 1,495 innings in "a

Double Loss

Armstrong, who entered the ring
holding both the lightweight and
welterweight titles, may be shorn Of
all his honors. The Ambers bout
was billed for only the lightweight
championship, with the pre-fght
agreements providing that in the
event Ambers should win they would
meet in a return match for Arm
strong's welterweight championship.
However, this agreement may be
relegated to the ash-heap. Execu-
tive Secretary Edward c. Foster of
the National Boxing association stat.
ed that he would ask the N. B. A.
at its convention in September to ap.
prove Ambers as world lightweight
and welterweight champion. He
termed the Ambers Armstrong
agreement, signed before the New
York Boxing commission, as ri
diculous."
It was the kind Of q fight In which
the outcome never will be settled
to the satisfaction Of everyone.
Judged solely from . statistical
standpoint, there can be no quarrel
with the judges decision. The five
rounds Henry lost by low blows
we're sufficient TO relieve him Of al
least one crown.
Donovan was well within his
rights. He called. the shots as he
saw them, and not even the most
rabid Armstrong supporter could ex.
pect him to ignore all the rude in
fractions.
So, until return bout settles the
matter, the argument will continue.
The Ambers faction can rejoice In
lightweight championship. The
Armstrong patriots can claim .
moral victory.

Gladly enough the recent Is

saw the championship pass from

proved to be little more than a mi

which embraced managers. contest

The fight was a disappointment in
more ways than one. To begin with,
Deadeye Donovan managed to spot
five fouls committed by Lii Henry.
defending champion. AS a result,
Ambers was presented with five
rounds by official scoring. And it
has been generally conceded that
had not the fouls been called, Arm
strong would have won all these
rounds save one.
Donovan's score card read eight
and seven in favor of the challeng-
er, indicating that had he failed to
rule Armstrong guilty in just one
of those FIVE fatal rounds he might
have voted for a draw or else a
victory for the defender. Fullam,
