A gauge that will permit doctors,
for the first time, to know the exact
strength a patients muscle can ex-
ert was given its first public DEM
onstration yesterday afternoon at
Children's Hospital.
With its disclosure came predic-
tions that the device would elimi-
nate most of the human error in
judging muscle condition, and would
provide accurate statistical records
of muscle development o. deteriora:-
ton. 1t may have far-reaching sig
nificance in dealing with such dis
eases as infantile paralysis, Chill
drens Hospital officials said.
The device, called "myodyne-
meter" was demonstrated by its in
ventor, DR.. Willis C. Beasley,, who
has been working since 1885 in the
United States Public Health .Serv-
ices Division of Public Health
Methods. He said it represented
nearly three years of experimental
ton in his laboratory at the Ma
tional Institute of Health in Be
thesda. So far, only six models have
been built, while scientists study its
application to clinical problems.
DR.. Beasley tested the gauge on
josephine White, 9-year-old- daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. John E. White
of Wheaton, Md. Josephine was
stricken with infantile paralysis
last September and lost the use OF
her right arm. .,
At present, DIR. Beasley pointed
out. doctors have no better guidance
to the ravages left, by disease on a
patients muscles than the subjee-
tive, personal impression they get
from actually feeling the muscles.
Evening star., 1948-01-18

Individual Judgment, whether ex-
pressed as a per cent rating, a
numerical scale, or an adjective de-
.scription such as normal" good
or poor" makes uniformity and
and accuracy impossible.
With the new device, DR.. Beasley
said, a physical therapist with a
thorough knowledge of muscle be-
havior could be trained in two weeks
to substitute measurement of muscle
force in actual pounds of pressure
for the existing guesswork system
The machine is operated by a
physical therapist who presses a
small metal. device in the palm OF
his hand against the muscle to be
measured. While the patient ap-
plies full strength to move the
indicated muscle, a needle over a
scale on the face of the machine
is DETECTED in proportion to the
strength that is exerted.
DR.. Beasley said he began to
work on the idea when DR.. Don
w. Gudakunst, former medical di-
rector of the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis, dumped
the problem in my lap Research
has been supported by several
grants from the foundation, which
felt accurate measurement q, of
muscle condition was particularly
needed in treatment of polio cases

GSF Workers Strike.
Enters Third Week.;
2 Pickets Get Bond

The strike of United Cafeteria
Workers Local All (UPWA-CIO)
against Government Services, Inc,
was headed into its third week to-
Gay with no signs of a break in the
deadlock.
The Government building cafe
terias operated by GSI are providing
normal service with substitute per-
sonnel, according to a GSI spokes-
man, and only, few more cooks
and bakers are needed to replace
strikers.
Meanwhile, two pickets were free
in $500 bond each, pending a-jury
trial February II on assault charges
arising from an incident yesterday
outside the National Gallery of Art
The pickets, Queen Simmons, 25
Of the TOO block of Morton street
NV, and Carmela Leynes, 81, OF
the 1700 block of Fifteenth street
NV, both colored, pleaded not
guilty when, arraigned before Judge
George D. Nelson in Municipal
Court.
They were arrested on the COM
plant of Mrs. Catherine Shepherd,
81, colored, of 1922 Fifty-fourth
street NE, who told police she was
prevented from entering> the build
ing shortly before am. yesterday
as she was on her way to work.
The local union office issued a
statement accusing the complainant
of cursing and showing the pickets.
The union also charged the pickets
we're detained an unreasonable
length of time at the Woman's Bur-
eau without being permitted to COM
municate with the union or an
attorney.
The strike began January S. The
union asked a 15-cent hourly wage
increase. GSI offered 61a cents but
refused to deal with the union until
it's officers signed non- Communist
-affidavits. This they refused to do.
