Officials at City, County Hos

lection which has killed Is in
fantS since December /.
A staff physician said a new
antibiotic is cutting down on
the deaths from staphylococcic
infections. The new antibiotic,
called kanamycin, is not on
the market.
The doctor said it was sent
here for investigation in the
hospitals infectious diseases
laboratory two months ago and
was pressed into service as soon
as its safety had been deter
mined.
He said that Of 20 infants
who have received kanamycin
there were only three deaths,
all reported earlier. OF those
three, two were so i'll the anti
biotic had little or no time to
work.
The third actually died from
complications of a burn, the
doctor said.
Three new deaths due to
staphylococcic infections were
reported yesterday. but a hos
pital spokesman later said one
of those earlier had been re-
ported in the'16 deaths. The
other two had other serious all
ments in a addition to the,
staphylococcic infection, he
said.
The staff physician said that
while kanamycin is being used
on infants who have the infec-
tons. it cannot reduce the
number Of infections occurring
In the over-crowded hospital.
He said isolation Of infants
suspected of having the infec-
ton is the hospitals chief
weapon against the outbreak.

his 17-foot kayak along at a
sizzling pace.
Redela is a native Of Tisza-
bud. Hungary, and was there
during the tragic revolt. About
his homeland he has little to
say, quite UNDERSTANDABLE, be-
cause his parents still are
there.
CanOeist Three Years
He played some soccer in
Budapest and took up canoe
ing about three years ago, join
ing a club there. When he
arrived in the United States
March 20, 1857, he settled a
while in New Jersey, then went
to Detroit. He couldn't find
a canoe club to his taste, how
ever, and wrote to the Hun
garian Sports Federation, which
recommended the Washington
club.
Redela hunks at the club and
is on the Potomac morning and
evening, padding about II
miles a day. Only a fair ca
noeist in Hungary where canoe
ing is a major sport as it is in
Finland, Germany, Denmark,
Czechoslovakia and Romania,
he quickly perfected his style
over here.
In his first race last year at
YonkerS, N. Y, Redela was
fourth. In his next he again
was fourth. Then at Newark,
N. j., he moved up to third.
When the Washington Canoe
Club held its regatta in June he
won his event, q victory he re-
peated in the Middle States
regatta in Philadelphia in July.
Third in Nationals
After that came the national
championships at Cochituate,
Mass. Although he could not
compete because he was an
alien, Redela got permission to
race alongside the other canoes
and finished third.
Finally came the North
American championships which
were held August Is at Lake
Dunmore, VT. Competitors are
made UP of first, second and
third place finishers in the ma
tional championships from both
Canada and the United States.
Redela again was barred
from the competition and even
denied permission to race
alongside. Indignantly he raced
anyway and finished an unofi-
