Combating Baby ls OK

TWenty-month old Sharl Madsen, daughter of MT. arfU Mrs. Ali Madsen, came back from Anchorage Wednesday with a dirty copper penny clutched in her hand.
 It was a very special penny, for Shari had it removed from her esophagus at Providence Hospital Tuesday afternoon, after a nasty trip to Anchor age with her father.
 Shari swallowed the penny Sunday night, after she found it on the top ledge of the book shelf which she reached for the first time in her young life.
 Because Shari was able to eat and breathe, her mother figured the penny would come out in the morning but when it didn't she took her to the doc tor who ordered an X-ray. That disclosed the penny in a place where only a esophagu- scope would remove it.
 Since none is available here, Shari was taken to Anchorage by her father, who arrived from his camp at Uganik Mon day night after bringing his boat the Poraris through the storm.

Washington Negro
Pupils Get
New School

WASHINGTON (ANP)- Wash
.ngton's Negro children, suffering
from a postwar school shortage,
now have one of the new type
functional schools which is the
type to be built in the city now.
The 10 room Negro school is
one of the first schools with new
type planning worked out by the
school superintendent and the dir
ector of public construction for
the commissioners.
Among the innovations introduce
ed in the school is the lack of
wall space which "casts shadows
it's bad for the children's eyes,.
The classrooms have windows from
floor to ceiling and wall to wall.
There are "a shades in each room
to regulate light according to
time of day and position Of the
sun.
Rooms are made lighter and
brighter by the use of pastel paint
for the walls, with soft gray doors
and trimming.
The heating system combines
heat and ventilation, bringing air
in from exterior vents, eliminating
the need to open the windows in
the winter.
Construction director H u S t o
said that the building is absolute
ly fire proof.

offset this, the diabetic is given
insulin taken from the pancreas
of animals. But usually a special
diet, with insulin injections, is
necessary to control the diabetic
condition.
Julie listened thoughtfully. When
I paused, she hastily assured me
that she loved her grandfather very
much and never meant to en-
danger his health. I told her I
understood how prowd she must
be of her cooking, which Mr..
Daniels said jules parents praised.
1t seemed to console her to learn
that my patient had told me of
her parents appreciation.
Satisfied also with my explana-
ton Of her grandfather's diet, I
heard her tell him, as they left,
that she was now learning the
proper way to cook vegetables,
which she was certain he could
eat.

The Road. 10 Health
By B. E. HOWELL, M. D.

BY B. E. HOWELL, M. D.
Oneof my patients, a diabetic
in his late sixties, came to my Of
flee recently accompanied by his
15-year-old granddaughter. He in
troduced me to her and said she
had offered to come along and
keep him company there and back.
Julie waited in the reception
room while her grandfather had
his checkup. Inside, Mr.. Daniels
told me he lived with Julie and her
parents, and things had been
happy and peaceful until recently.
Julpie had learned to bake pies
and cakes at cooking class in high
school and was doing all the bak-
ing for the family. But almost
every night at dinner~ Julie would
be very hurt, sometimes breaking
into tears, when her grandfather
turned down her pies and cakes.
theold genlteman's protests about
his diabetes made little impression
because Julie thought ga little
dessert would do no harm"
I told Mr.. Daniels he was right
to refuse the desserts and I con-
graduated him for keeping to his
diet, taking his insulin regularly,
and getting sufficient rest. Mr..
Daniels was my last patient that
evening and I walked out with
him to the reception room where
Julie sat reading a magazine.
When 1 asked Julie what had
her so interested, she showed me
an article. on cooking in the mag
azine. I told her I had heard Of
her cooking classes in high school,
and that seemed to remind her
of her grandfather's stubborn

eat my pies and cakes, and says
you told him he shouldn't, "she
said. "Couldn't he have some, now
and then, since he's taking in
sulin, anyhow"
~ wish I could say yes, julie"
l replied, "but your grandfather
must keep to his diet as well as
his insulin, if he is to keep his
illness under control. Insulin is an
aid in treating diabetes, not a cure
for the disease, nor does it always
fill all the needs of a diabetic
person. In most cases, as with your
grandfather, a diabetic has to skip
starches and sugars as well as
take insulin."
I told Julie that the body ordin-
arily converts sugar into the warm
tn and energy which it needs, but
in diabetes, sugar is not used
properly and is thrown off in the
blood stream or in the patients
urine. This happens because the
pancreas gland Of a diabetic fails
to perform it's function Of manu-

Medical Group
Tells of Need for
Negro Doctors

LOUISVILLE, KY. June 10 GAN
P)--Dr. Phillip C. Brooks, presi-
dent of the Blue Grass Medical
association, told delegates at the
annual meeting of the medical
group at the Central Louisville
Health center here last week that
retirement and death no doubt
claimed more Negro doctors than
were added to the profession last
year.
DR.. Brooks, who owns and oper-
ates a private hospital in Hopkins
vile KY, stated this situation is
reflected by a shortage Of Negro
doctors throughout the nation, es-
pecially in rural areas
He pointed out many cities with
Negro populations of 5000 to Is,
900 have no Negro doctors at all.
One city with about 100000 Negro
has only four or five Negro doc
tors, and a number of other cities
with Negro populations of about
100000 have no more than rs
Negro doctors.
eff health is to be improved or
even maintained" he declared,
"a way certainly must be found to
increase existing facilities so that
more Negro doctors will come from
medical schools each year.
