Overgrowth of Scar Tis sue

By Herman N. Bundaaan, M. O. WE are all familiar with the fart that wound* heal by the formation nf arara. Bometimea. particularly in people of the dark akin race*, healing in a< ronipanied by an overgrowth of »car tinue. known a* keloids. A keloid Is at first deeply located in the skin. It has a firm, rub bery feel and often has a smooth red or pink top. It is usually limit-1 ed In its she by the area of the siar Keloid* most often follow injury to the skin, operation, boils, or treatment with an elertrte needle, but they may also arise in apparently normal skin Sometimes, when they are located over the surface of a joint, keloids may be thk k enough to iaterfer with Its motion Otherwise. Itching. and a bunihia Mamtim due to the ptechag of nerves, are the chief dlm-omforts caused by keloids. Just why some person* are susceptible to the development of these growths to not known, nor does there seem to be any advant age* in the preventive measure* taken before or after <be opratioc to her the keloid from developing.

mal and what is not. Whenever the American people come to believe there is no such thing as . right or wrong, normal or abnorI ma). those who would destroy our. civilization will applaud a major victory over our way of life." And the late Father Flanagan said "What a strangely unscientific argument it is one hears . . . that. . because many young people have failed to live up to certain standards, we should lower the stand- , a rds.” ■ ■ O-” ~-~o -- * "There'll always be a Neely." Some West Virginians may feel that way on learning that ex-Sena-tor Matthew M Neely has been nominated for his old post. Ever since 1912, when he was first elected to Congress, Neely has been almost continuously in office. He has been congressman, senator, governor and congressman again, with only occasional upsets, as wo -n he was defeated for the Senate in 1928 and 1942. Few states can show an office-holder with such constant success in winning a variety of important places Sentiment grows in Washington towards nationalization of the railroads. Within the last five years it has been necessary for the federal government to take over the roads when strikes threatened and several Congressmen favor permanent control. The railroads would then be tun like the Post Office and management chiefs would have to be O. K'd by congress. The railroad brotherhoods would come under civil service, with the right to strike taken from them, aa the Taft-Hartley law prohibits strikes against the government. If management and the brotherhoods refuse to settle the present dispute, Uncle Sam may find himself operator of the railroad system. One Russian gain which is not likely to cause new alarm abroad is the winning of the international chess championship. A tournament of five invited masters, held at Moscow, has ended the vacancy which had existed since the death of the former champion in 1946. This was Alexander Alekhine, an expatriated Russian, who died either by suicide or accident, it has never been certain which. His successor is another Russian. Mikhail Botvinnik, who took the lead at the start of the present tournament and was never headed. The Russian skill in chess comes partly from the fact that lotjg winter evenings contribute to the interest in such games. Also, the subject is taught in schools. Skill in chess, with its emphasis on patience and forelght. may account in part for the cunning displayed by many Soviet diplomats.

for a long time and has become firm and hard, the best treatment seems to lie to cut It out. if the edges of the skin can be satisfactorily brought together. U a new keioid then recurs in the area, immediate treatment with X-ray will usually bring satisfactory results. Sometimes, skin grafting may be necessary to cover the area from which the keloid has been removThe X-ray treatmenu are given at intervals of about three weeks, for a total of three treatmapts. If this doe* not bring satisfactory results. the treatment is repeated after a period of three months. In the usual cases, two such series of treatment are required The amount of X-ray necessary to get rid at the keloid Is. as a rule, well below the amount which would do any damage to the normal skin. It has been noticed that keloids on the face are more resistant to treatmart than those on other parts of the body. QUESTIONS ANO ANSWERS A. R.' What would cause the liver Ip enlarge?
