Editor, Filipino Forrtn
The Filipino-American Women's
Club wants to thank the Forum
for affording this opportunity to
thank all the people that bought
rattle and dance tickets and at
tended our dance on Sept. II to
raise funds for the Princesa Drill
Team.
We consider ourselves very for
tunate to have been able to give
the team $4,000, our profit from
the dance. Our thanks to all the
people, including the "Princesas'
who worked so faithfully selling
tickets. Without this kind of CO.
operation our purpose would have
been a flop.
We wrote to "a Filipino lodges,
mems and women's, two Filipino
recreation clubs and the Philippine
Consulate General asking for joint
cooperation in trying to raise $500
for uniforms, rain gear and mis-
cellaneous expenses for the COM
ing year. We are sure our purpose
was misunderstood, and if we hurt
anyone's feelings, we are sorry
we would not do anything to hurt
the Drill Team. We want no
glory for starting this drive, as
we know very we'll we are not
capable of sponsoring them alone
This should be community drive.
To give this courageous team
the same advantage as the ether
teams, we must pool our efforts,
not by talk, but by nianeY as we
have every reason to be proud Of
them. Their uniforms must be re-
placed; travel for the team has
not been the best. They need food
allowance; these things have been
put in the background. and the
Princesas have marched hrayely
on with patched uniforms, no rain
gear, and often on empty stom-
aehs. Why? We know why: be-
cause it takes money, and there
hasn't been enough.
They have shed real tears, and
we who have travelled with them
have shed them, too, when they
win a trophy, KNOWN the hard
ships they had to endure. It makes
it doubly hard when the compe' i
ton is with other teams who
travel and march with first-class

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Best Doctor May Be Your Own
By DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: My
husband has recently recov-
cred from a coronary throm-
bosis. Although we appreci-
ate what our own doctor did
: in pulling him through, we'd
appreciate it If you would
give us the name of the un-
questionably BEST heart
specialist in the United
States. Mrs. T., Los Angeles.
THERE IS NO yardstock
for accurately measuring the
best" This is not only true
in medicine. Ask yourself:
Who is the best lawyer? The
best engineer? The best busi-
nesSman? The best boxer?
The best speaker? The best
writer? .
You can't possibly come
up with the right answer.
1t is not only a matter Of
skill; it is a matter of the
personal opinion Of the one
making the choice. But you
are interested only in the
best heart specialist at this
time. I can talk about heart
specialists from personal ex-
perience.
I have been a cardiologist
and internist for over Is
years. During that stretch of
years I have treated thous-
andS of coronary patients. I
can tell you, without batting
the proverbial eyelash, that
for some of those patients I
WAS THE BEST HEART
SPECIALIST IN THE US.
But before writing another
line, I can also tell you that
for some others I was prob
ably an unfortunate choice
as a doctor. I may have been
the, WORST heart specialist
as far as they were con-
cerned.
The doctor-patient rela-
tionship is an intensely per-
sonal thing. Let's consider a
dozen very good heart spe-
cialists. Ask any member of
their medical society to
evaluate them as doctors,
and he will say they are
about equal in ability.
Yet, only one of them may
be the BEST for you.
even though they may all
interpret electrocardiograms
equally well; they know the
latest treatments.)
Then why is one best for
YOU? There may be one
Cor more) of many reasons.

Mrs. T, you say your hus-
bands doctor has Just
brought him through a seri-
Gus coronary attack. Yet you
are looking for the best
heart specialist in the United
States. AS far as your hus-
bands welfare is concerned,
you may be fortunate enough
to have the Number One
heart man right in your own
back yard! But. like many
others with their own doc
tor-you don't appreciate
him.
OF course, you have a right
to consultation. For peace of
mind if for nothing else. But
don't waste time and money
looking for the very BEST.
Somebody once gave this
definition Of the best:
Anyone who lives at least
100 miles out of town." Peo-
pie are impressed by "repu-
tationS" and distance.
Il have a breast lump"
writes Mrs. T. of Missouri.
"One doctor says Have it
out right away" and the
other says Forget it." What
shall I do?
THERE AXE TWO words,
I believe, that should be
stricken from every doctors
vocabulary: Forget it." That
holds true for whatever COM
plant the patient has. I
can't advise for or against
operation; but I can warn
you against taking the ad-
vice: Forget it."

DISILLUSION. One of the
first things John Ringing
North did when he took over
the operation of the Ringing
Bros. and Barnum g. Bailey
Circus in 1888 was to en-
gage Frank Bring En- Back
Alive" Buck. Buck, the apoth-
eosis of the white hunter,
was about the last of the
truly glamorous adventurer
types, narrates Henry Ring
ling North in THE Circus
Kings" written with Alden
Hatch.
II shall never forget the
day he reported at winter
quarters in Sarasota. So
great was his prestige that
the performers were in a
dither, and even the blase
walters in the cookhouse
were excited. The head chef
sent all the way to Tampa
for a steak fit to serve so
robust a character.
When Frank came into
the cookhouse with us, every
body was standing up or
jumping on benches to get a
better look. The chef asked
very deferentially:
"'How would like your
steak, Mr.. Buck? Very rare,
I suppose
Buck looked at him and
said apologetically:
my stomach is a little
upset today. May I have
some milk toaSt?'"

I learned recently about an

Mrs. j. PA girl belongs
with her parents until she
gets married. ! know that's
considered old fashioned but
modern ways aren't always
better than the old ones.
It's true we'd be lonesome
without Sylvia but we would
be willing to do whatever is
best for her. We can't be-
lieve it's good for a single
girl to be alone. thousands of
miles from her family, with
nobody to turn to in case of
trouble.
There are plenty of nice
American men right around
here to choose from. We
don't like Sylvia's going out
with foreigners. Sylvia should
take a second look at the fell
lows she knows.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
In the days when it was
unthinkable for a girl to
leave her parents roof until
she was married, the parents
took the major share of the
responsibility of finding q
husband for her. Perhaps
this wasn't q bad idea, but
it is totally unacceptable to
the vast majority of young
Americans today.
While we do not think it
is necessary to go globe
trotting in search of a hus-
band, the excitement of
travel and the necessity for
finding new friends some
times stimulates a girl to
change her outlook and this
helps her find that husband.
Many girls have taken over
seas jobs and then come
home and married the boy
next door.
If she has average COM
mon sense and maturity for
her age, Sylvia is unlikely to
run into serious trouble.
Probably her closest friends
of both sexes will be Ameri-
cans.
Sylvia stands a better
chance Of getting married at
home or abroad if she re-
leases herself from her dead
line and just concentrates on
enjoying her social life in as
relaxed a way as she can.

PRESIDENT TRIES
FOR SIX LOBSTERS
IN EVERY POT

NEWPORT. r. I. (AP).-
President Eisenhower has
a new recreation - lob
stering.
He not only catches
them in his own pots in
Newport Harbor, but also
relishes eating them, &C
cording to summer White
House sources.
He may have caught as
many as two dozen in the
last two weeks, six of them
in one pot.
Mr.. Eisenhower's inter-
est in lobstering was
kindled when he asked
about buoys marking lob
ster pots in the harbor.
Gov. Christopher Del
Sesto heard of the Presi-
dents interest and saw to
it that he got an honor
ary lobsterman's license.
Two aides were similarly
licensed so the President
wouldn' have to haul his
own pots. Traps were set
out and Mr.. Eisenhower
was in business.
