YOUR CH|LD'S WORST ENEMY

HE disease which the American Heart
Il Association. calls childhood's greatest
enemy struck Ralph Carter years ago, when
he was seven. All that happened. in the
beginning. was that he caught cold and got
sore throat
Two weeks later the neighborhood physi-
clan looked him over and said he seemed a
little run down, but extra rest, good food
some fresh air and few vtamins ought to
fix him up. The next night, Ralph was run

In the morning. he cried when his mother
bumped his bed He seemed to be suddenly
representative all over He said his arms and
legs hurt awful"
The doctor sent Ralph to the hospital for
observation and tests On the second day in
the hospital. he told Mrs Carter: 'Your

ed and inf1amed and he must have absolute

told her. They were giving him large doses

tablets and keep him in bed. but RF rheu-
matte fever is an incredible disease. The
public has heard practically nothing of it
until recently, although it is greater killer
of children between the ages of five and Ia
than any other known disease 1t kills by
attacking the heart but. paradoxically, it
rarely kills the first time And unlike polio or
cerebral palsy it does its work without leaving
visible mark.
RF is a great disabler, and it is estimated

the disease - the majority with Scared and
defective heart valves as the result
Its cause is unknown. What is known is
that it almost always strikes following sore
throat, nose or ear infection or scarlet fever
I all caused by the germ, hemolytic strepto>
coccus. This microbe - or more precisely
one strain of it - is the trigger. The puzzle
here is that less than one out of 10 with such
a strep infection will get RF
RF strikes again and again. Unlike measles,
it confers no immunity. Unlike polio. it does
not make dramatic sweeps through commu-
mites. Unlike the strep infection itself, RF
is not contagious.
RF is primarily disease of the North, of
cities, of late winter and spring, of crowded
homes of the poor. And child is three times
more likely to have it in family where there
has been previous case
Il He Just Siclxly?
HE acute stage may follow fairly typical
pattern, as in Ralph's case; other times the
symptoms are hardly noticeable St. Vitus's
dance and disorders of the nose and throat
are common. Often the child is regarded as
lust sickly," and the disease goes nameless.
Aspirin. or one of the related salcylc-acid
compounds, is so effective in reducing the
fever and relieving the joint pain that it may
be an aid in diagnosing RF- if the drug
causes the migrating arthritis to subside.
Penicillin and the sulfa drugs won't faze
RF, and may even aggravate it. But
they're effective against strep infections
and SO may prevent RF.
Like TB, the best treatment for RF is bed
rest. At first, the patient may not even be
permitted to feed himself Later, he may sit
up. read, use pencil and play games in bed.
AS he improves, he will be given breathing
exercises and gradually more extensive work.
outs.
Doctors caution against making the child
afraid to do anything for himself. 1t is hard
for-parents to manage the childs activities
without, at the same time. making him self
conscious. To quote one authority, I'm the
long run. an RF patient is more likely to
suffer from bad mental attitude "a psy-
Geological Gripping - than from an actual
physical handicap"
RF Victims Have Been Nsslscted
HE public has maintained TB hospitals
everywhere for years. but there are very few
in the U. S. devoted to the treatment and
rehabilitation of RF children and adults,
Community programs for the detection
and control of RF have been started in some
states under the leadership of the Childrens
Bureau, state crippled childrens Offices state
medical societies and state chapters of the
National Society for. Crippled Children and
Adults So far, however. these programs are
isolated cases in desert of RF neglect.
Research in RF is another field that
needs exploring. Boston has made TO-
year study of 900 RF children. 1t showed
that child with RF had about fifty-fifty
chance of complete recovery Twenty per
cent died and Is per cent became invalids.
But IS per cent recovered - 439 being able

For Radio Listeners

Drama of the highest and most
dignif1ed type is making its first
serious large-scale bid for the plau-
dts of the video audience this
season.
This is a most interesting devel-
opment. In fact, there has been
considerable speculation regarding
the attitude of the legitimate thea
ter toward the medium of television.
Broadway actors took OF their
colored glasses long enough to take
q look at the bombarding electrons
and came up with an eye full. The
implications of their reactions to
television are discussed by The
Stars drama editor, Jay Carmody,
in his column on today's drama
page.
The fact is that speculation has
ended. The legitimate theater is
moving into the living rooms of
America and bringing with It its
valuable resources of production
techniques and acting talents. Out
standing evidence of this is the
Philco playhouse which begins a
series of weekly full hour revivals
of some Of the legitimate theater's S
most famous successes tonight on
WNBW (NBC) 9:00-lo:00. The first
production is television adaptation
of the George S. Kaufman-Edna
Ferber hit Dinner At Eight with
title rolls featuring Peggy Wood,
Dennis King. Mary Boland and
Vicki Cummings.
Next week Florence Reed and
Bramwell Fletcher will be starred in
their original Broadway, roles. in
Daphne du Maurier's "Rebecca."
AS far as the Philco Playhouse is
concerned, the play is not entirely
the thing. This marks Equity's first
formal association with television
from the performance standpoint,
which should assure no small de-
gree of success from the start. Fees
Of the performers are being turned
over to Actors Fund.
Bert Lytell will be the host for the
series. The Equity Television Com
mittee for the Philco Playhouse
lists as members Raymond Massey,
Ralph Bellamy, Louis Calhern and
Equity President Clarence Derwent

elaborate dramatic effort is ABCs

On the expensive side if you plan
