Baby Flown
To Hospital

Buffalo, N. Y, September "a. -
Cup A civil air patrol plane,
converted into q flying hospital to
carry 13-day-old Beverly Helen
Phimus to Fail River, Mass, to have
her upside-down stomach righted,
took off from Buffalo airport today
for Providence, r. T., after an over
night stop to replenish Its oxygen
supply.
After a delay caused by flying
conditions, the baby was transfer
red from an ambulance, which
brought her to the airport from
Children's Hospital, where she spent
a good night
The CAP plane, flying under spe-
cial army clearance through restrict
ed areas, was scheduled to land
about p. m. at Providence, r. l.,
where 1t will be met by an ar1bu-
lance which will carry the child to
the Fall River Clinic.
The oxygen aboard the plane ran
low last night and 1t landed at
Buffalo Municipal Airport enroute
from the baby's home at Des Moines,
Iowa, to Fall River, where q spe-
cialist was waiting to start treat
ment for correcting the condition.
DR.. John Griffin, Of Des Moines,
who delivered Beverly, was accom-
panying the infant on the flight.
Her father, Lee D. Primus, Drake
University law student, planned to
follow later by transport plane.
Awaiting at Fall River was DR..
p. e. Truesdale, o gray-haired, 60
year old physician who has per-
formed IL Of the recorded 81 opera
tons for correction Of an upside
down stomach. He operated on 10
year old Alice Jane Mc1enTy Of
Omaha eight years ago. Her condi-
ton was corrected and she since has
recovered completely.
DR.. Griffin decided to enlist the
veteran physicians aid when an
examination revealed that the baby
was born with q hernia Of the dia-
phram on the right side, which re-
suited In an upSide-down stomach.
He contacted Major Don Q. john
ton, wing commander Of the CAP,
and arrangements were made with
the Army Air Force to permit the
emergency mercy trip" over re-
stricted territory.
A tiny cot and an oxygen tank
were installed in the plane and the
baby, still in its oxygen tent, was
taken aboard. The oxygen is used to
aid the infants breathing, which has
been impaired by pressure against
her lungs.
DR.. Truesdale declined to COM
ment on the case until after he ex-
amined the, baby. Spokesman for
the American Medical Association
at Chicago said, however, that there
was q Every good chance" the oper-
alton will be successful. He said the
patients usually survive, although
many unpredictable factors are In
volved in the operation which Is
seldom performed.

Robert M. spisrs Of zoe willow
street died during the past week.
we knew Bob Spiers, but hadn't
seen or heard Of him IN years
But then that isn't unusual, Tor
there are people, you know, who
live q life Of quietness and reserve,
and who settle down to this sort
Of thing, only after their young
days have passed, and they are no
longer active In the athletic held.
Bob was one Of this type.
And yet It was some 40 years
ago or so, Bob Spiers was one OF
the crack bicycle riders Of the
day. He was also seen on the
floor OF the old Auditorium play
ing roller polo with the shop
amateur teams, whose game
always preceded that Of the pro-
fessional players. We were among
those who used to look out and adj
rnire the way ID which he skated
along the floor, following the lit
tie red ball from corner to cor
rler, getting bump now and then
from one Of his opponents, and
taking his knocks In the scrirn-
IMAGES without any effort on his
part to retaliate. He was too
much OF q boyish gentleman to
rough It. He loved the game, was
friendly with all Of the players,
said little, but my, how he could
skate.
It was the same with the bicy-
Gle. Jack Broderick and Bob's
older brother Bill, with others,
all Of the south end, generally
planned on long ride the COM
ing Sunday, every summer in and
around the turn Of the century.
waterbury then had two bicycle
clubs, the waterbury Wheel Club
and the Ramblers. All Of the
riders were identified with one or
the other organization. There was
a path on the way to Naugatuck
and far beyond that, and each
Sunday, long lines Of young men
started out for q ride which In
some instances ran as high as q
hundred miles. Bob Spiers never
seemed to tire, and was just as
fresh, 1t seemed, after the run,
as he was at the beginning. He
was Of good size, strong looking,
and full Of energy.
We worked at the plant Of Steele
and Johnsor's at o time when Bob
and his brother were in the burn
ishing room under the foreman
ship Of their own father. Mr..
Spiers, ST., was a kind and con-
siderate man, and all Of us liked
him, as we also did the two boys.
The old shop finally gave up the
ghost and We were driven out

Of illness, and to consider the con-
ditions associated with weight-loss
would be to review the majority Of
all diseases. Weight-loss as the re-
suit Of acute infectious diseases Is
so commonly expected that II arous-
es no surprise. There are some dis
eases so 1nsidiouS In their onset or
90 asymptomatic IN themselves
that weight-loSs may b the only
symptom, and thus they initiate the
leanness that results from causes
other than disease.
IDEAL WEIGHT
Many people are considered to
be lean whose weights are still with
in the lower limits Of the normal.
Active, growing children Of appre-
hensive parents are usually In this
group. There Is considerable confu-
sion between average weight and
ideal weight. The latter is some
what variable and Is q purely in
dividual figure. The average weight
is an artificial figure arrived at by
determining the mean Of q large
number OF individuals whose weights
are both above and below the aver
age.
Many individuals are thin be-
cause they have inherited q pre-dis-
position to that physical build. I'm
der such circumstances, leanness Is
not o symptom Of ill-health. II

WOMEN'S LEAGUE
FAVORS BONUSES
Milk Producers Should Be
Compensated; Notify
Governor on Stand

In letter sent today to Cover
nor Raymond E. Baldwin and State
Milk Administrator Donald Ham
merberg the Connecticut League of
Women Voters advocates "produc-
ton bonuses" to milk producers as
a solution to Connecticut's critical
milk problem.
Mrs. John G. Lee, president of
the Connecticut League, said in
part: Because Of the fact that costs
of feed and labor to the milk dealer
have risen and that also the gov
ernment's hold the line policy
makes a price increase impossible,
the only remaining solution seems
to be that Of subsidizing the pro-
Queer.
I'm view of the recent statements
that the consumption of milk will
have to be curtailed, 1t Is our belief
that every reasonable effort to slim
ulate and increase production
should be made Immediately. We
therefore believe that a production
bonus is the answer to Connecti-
cuts problem and that such action
would not jeopardize our fight
against imitation"

Agree On
Relief Plan
BY JOHN A. REICHMANN
UNITED Press staff Correspondent

(Un1teu FresS stan correspondent
Washington, Sept. "a - (U.P) -
Agreement on United Nations re-
lief and rehabilitation administra-
ton, headed by former Governor
Herbert Lehman Of New York, ap-
peared assured today on the basis
Of q revised proposal prepared by
the U. s. State Department.
The agreement was presented to
the SO United Nations and II as
ISOLATED nations. Secretary Of State
Cordell Hull proposed that the
formal ceremony Of signing take
place at the White House early in
November.
The appointment Of Lehman to
head the United Nations body SEEM
ed certain, since representatives Of
China, Russia, Britain and the Uni
ted States have indicated they fav-
ored him.
The United States suggested that
the first session Of the council Of
the new organization, on which all
member governments who signed
the agreement would be represented
be held Immediately after the cere-
mony Of signing. The meeting would
probably be held at an as yet I'M
designated place outside Washing
ton.
1t Is expected that a joint resolu-
ton providing for U. s. participa-
ton soon will be submitted to con-
gress. Offlcials Of the State Depart
ment said Congress would control U.
s. participation since 1t would con-
troll appropriations for the coun-
try's share Of the activities.
The new draft agreement Is a re-
vision Of the first draft made public
June 10. Changes were based part
ly on the objections Of the smaller
nations, led by DR.. A. Loudon, Meth
erlands ambassador that the big
four"-Britain, China, Russia and
the United States-would have too
much authority.

Sterling Citizen, True Gentleman.

side. from that day Of long ago,
we had never seen nor met Bob
spiers. But we thought Of him
many times. we had q right to
think Of him, because he was one
fellow among the lot who stood
out In manhood and decency.
Never, did he speak disrespect-
fully Of any one; never did he do
anything to annoy any one: never
would he be O party TO anything
wrong or unlawful, and never once
did he lose the friendship and
goodwill Of his fellow beings.
we always had q fond spot In
our memory for Bob Spiers. We
cherished his company, we ad-
mired his ways, we liked the way
in which he kept his mouth shut,
ana we liked his faithfulness TO his
employers; he never shirked in
any work assigned him. He gave
in full and more, than he was
really supposed to give. He never
found fault, and he was never an
agitator.
we were sorry when we read Of
his death. He was entitled to
more In life, than he got, we be-
lieved. The newspapers said ne
was later employed at the plant
Of the Waterbury Manufacturing
Company. And wen wager ne
was the same Bob UP there, Just
as quiet and reserved as ever, be-
cause he was built that way, and
could not act differently.
Hail to his merno9yl
May he enjoy the fruits Of after
death, Just like the good souls
who preceded him on their way to
the grave.
