HE SAID THE suits were mostly of a monetary nature and said there are other suits from residents in other counties being filed over the matter. He said, though, that some people with whom easements had been negotiated are “not quite satisfied with the money they are getting since this is a one time deal.” Doll said most of the right of way for the line, which is to have 55 to 140 foot towers, has been completed south of 1-70.

Greencastle area fourth graders checked on heart computer
An estimated 200 fourth grade students in the Greencastle Community Schools have been tested for heart beat irregularities this month, in a Heart Sound Screening Program under the direction of the Indiana Heart Association. The testing utilizes a $4,000 computer called the PhonoCardio-Scan, and requires about four minutes per child. Wired suction cups placed on the child’s chest measure the pulse, and a special microphone placed over his heart “listens” to the heart sounds. The tiny computer then analyses this information and points out any existing abnormalties. Sponsored by the Putnam County Heart Association and endorsed by the County Medical Society, the program has the approval of Frank Ross, superintendent of the schools, it was announced by the Indiana Heart Associaton. The PhonoCardioScan is portable, weighing only 18 pounds and fitting compactly into a briefcase. It ranges from 70 to 90 percent in providing a correct analysis, which is a better per-

TERRE HAUTE-NINETY-THREE EMPLOYEES of General Telephone Company of Indiana, from the Southwestern Division, headquartered in Terre Haute, will be honored February 20 for their many years of dedicated service to the company, according to T.S.

formance than X-ray screening offers for tuberculosis or lung cancer. Another feature is that any time during a screening the machine is able, at the mere press of a button, to check itself for proper function. Operating the PhonoCardioScan was Mrs. Carroll B. Hammond, school nurse. It is estimated that three youngsters in every 1,000 suffer from an unsuspected heart disease. This may be from rheumatic fever which often results in scarred tissue in the heart, or from other inborn defects present, though undetected, since birth. There may be no outward sign until infection or physical stress puts them under pressure. Most children have had a heart murmur at one time or another. Ususally these are of an innocent variety and occur between the ages of three and seven. However, when they are not functional, or innocent murmurs, it is then imperative that professional care be sought to improve, arrest or correct the condition.
