Problem Os Poor Circulation f '

MANY older people often suffer from decreased circulation to the legs. This disturbance in the blood supply may be due either - to hardening or spasip of the arteries, as well as to varicose or enlarged veins. A number of methods of attempting to improve the circulation have been employed, such as the application of heat, exercise, and the use of pressure. It is thought that some of these procedures may be harmful. Heat applied directly to the legs, while it may help the blood f:ow, carries some danger of dimage to the tissues. Hence, It is suggested that the heat be applied to the trunk or upper extremities. This, by reflex action, causes a marked increase in the flow of blood tothe legs and feet. . If’Jthe arms ire to be treated, the ‘legs and body are warmed Prith blankets and heating pads. - The flow' of blood to the muscles in the arms and legs rises wjien the body is heated, although to a lesser degree than occurs in the hands and feet. , The blood flow to the legs is incVeased by having the legs lower than the rest of the bpdy. If the legs are raised, the blood flow is. cut down. Alternating lowering and raising the legs thus has.been used id treating the circulatory ; : ' ■ . i ’ r '..

For a' of years he was engaged in the advertising; business at Evansville and later at Los Angeles.

difficulty in some cases. This type of treatment ! may be unwise in some cases, \ since the feet may be deprived of i|eded blood, although the blood td‘ the calf muscles is increased. Alternating pressure’ and release of pressure, asVip obtained bj using a rubber cuff around the Jeg, also may actually , decrease the blood flow to the legs. However, the pressure t does ' speed jip the rate of blood flow in the veins. On the other hand, light pressure, as with an elastic stocking, may be useful, it guts down the size of the i openings ■ through the veins, thus increasing the pressure of the blood flow through them. ‘However, this treatment should not oe employed unless the amount of blood being carried' to the legs by the arteries, is adequate, and only the doctor should be the judge a$ to the kind oi treatment to be employed in each case. .

CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX CHARY laid her palm against her cheek. "What I did to those plays," she said. I"I thought your performance unusually vivid,” McGann said. O'Callahan looked thoroughly puzzled. "Bits from things Chary did oh the radio," McGann explained. "They keep master transcriptions of all programs, mostly to guard against libel suits, and it was easy for Farwell, on the inside, to get playbacks and re-press what he wanted yesterday. Right, Frazier?" \ “I’m tuning out on you*” Farwell sneered. "This is longer than my commercials." McGann shnigged. "I learned at the radio station early today that Far|w ell was an accomplished mimic; When I got a chance to study the Tompkinu’ record —and Dink confirmed that it was Ronnie’s true voice—l knew that I had never spoken to Tompkins in this room. A good imitator was next choice. i "Then when I heard Chary’s lines homing over the phone, was Unable to break in and be gan to recognize some of them from plays she said she’d broadcast, I realized how it was being done. This place seemed by far the most logical source if Farwell was to cast her as a remorse-ridden suicide." i "That right, Miss ?” O’Callahan asked. ■ She nodded, her eyes immense in a pallid face. "Can I go now?" O'Callahan stood up> and held out \Ws hand to McGann. \ "You did very well, my boy,” he said magnanimously. “It would have taken us at least another twelve houris.” \ i “Awfully kind,” McGann murmured. He inclined his head toward Wexton. "Is Joe Pulitzer here all clear with the department?” \ “Certainly, certainly** A fresh smile went with the booming voice, "j can’t stay mad at a little journalistic enterprise. I was a newspaperman myself once, you know.” ? "Really?" -( "Absolutely. Sold ads for the Bronx Home News in the summer of 1907. I guess it stays in the blood." He beamed at Wexton. “We didn’t see anything In that desk anyway, did we?" 4 L "Nooo," Wexton said. "Not a thing.” \\ ' ; , O’Callahan waved a big paw at the man in blue. "Okay, Charlie, give your friend a hand there." § Chary had drawn away but she let McGann take her by the elbow. He said, \ “How about a cup of coffee?” '

I’ll drive you home and we’ll pick up something on the way.’*. .. , . | ■ I, "Deal me in,” Wexton said. ‘Tm not sjo pretty but I’m a hero.” Sunlight stabbed at their eyes as they emerged. Shutters clicked and a little group of men and women surged forward. One called, “C’mon, WextonL you rat, how about a statement?” “Mother, I’ve dreamed of this,” Wexton said. His* eyes 1 gleamed above their brown bags. “Sorry, gentlemen. No comment’’ They were still hooting as the convertible 'pulled away. McGann let the top slide back, and they drank in the cun-washed breeze. Central Park slipped past, cool and quick -McGann wound along the drives leisurely, letting their taut, nerves soften. Occasionally he glanced down at Chary, between them in the front seat. She seemed more relaxed but she would not meet his gaze. ' vL*. HO swung out Into the West Seventies and eased to the curb near: a restaurant, looking at Wexton expectantly. The reporter bristled. "You mean Tm back to a busboy again?” he demanded. ‘The pride of the Alamo?" "Three coffees to go,” McGann said firmly, “and no one will ever know that you came through that window* backwards.” ‘.l Wexton sighed and squirmed out. "Sees all, knows all, tells all. May you always have somebody to back over: a windowsill in your trying momjents.” > They; drank the hot coffee from cardboard containers and Wexton mused' ( happily over the morning finals, i The Blade headline was the biggest and blackest since the Ijast Armistice. He gloated over the opposition. “There’s a hot lead story,” he said. “Students riot in Bolivia*” "Where do you want to go?" McGann asked. Wexton decided to drop by the office to accept the plaudits of the multitude. They left him on the sidewalk there. McGann shook hands and Chary kissed him on the cheek.' "My backward hero,” she said. “It was nothing. Any time." As soon as they pulled away, she said, “I, suppose you think I’m an awful foot" McGann said, "Umm.” “It was just that you made me so mad—as if you took me out like a —a suspect, after you got through with Irma and that Rogers woman.” Another thought seemed to strike her. "I suppose your hat will be dry by cocktail time.”

“No," McGann said. "She can have it as a permanent trophy now. Is that why you checked out of the hotel in such a hurry before?” "Partly. It was hard to believe that you were so solicitous about my welfare.” Her lips relaxed in a tentative smile. “And the way you reacted to Frazier—well..."

Seeking To Coax 18 Japs To Surrender \ . I ■ • Last Os Survivors Os Jap Shipwreck paipah, Marianas, June 19X (UP) —United States military and civilian officials planned today an ‘invasion” of tiny bat and lizard infested Anathah island to coax *lB Japanese shipwreck survivors into believing the Pacific war really is oVer. The Japanese are the last bl 33 men who survived the sinking c f three Japanese cargo ships in Anathan harbor nearly seven years ago. They are ruled by a self-pro-claimed “Lord,” Nakagawa Ichin. a former seaman in the Japanese navy,J said to have threatened to kill anyone deserting to the Americans. y . Anathan is a volcanic Island five miles long two miles wide lying about 64 miles north of Saipan. Its highest point is 2,600 feet abpve sea level. The Japanese are known to be armed with a machine gun, two rifles, a brace of pistols and an assortment of knives, fasioned from parts of a ] B-29 which crashed on the island la|te in 1944. The knives are kept rust-free in the humid tropical climate by fresh lizard oil. . i \ 1 The U.S. “invasion” will bd in three stages, j The first took place last week when American officials put ashore waterproof box on Anathan beach which contained a letter to ibach man from the governor of Kanagawa, 4japdn. The letter ts-, cured the men that the Japanese government knew of their plight and that their families waited them home. Also enclosed 4’ e r o cherry blossoms and photographs pf loved oned. . The second stage is now being planned. It will be an air force “assault” with showers or leaflets telling the Japanese, “the war W over. Surrender and be taken home.” In the third state, an undisclosed number of ships will appear off )\nathan, fire salutes and then head at full speed for the east coast anchorage for a mass ingAmerican officials ido not know what to expect. A Japanese who surrendered last wieek when the box was put iasljore had 13 > knife Wotfhds and a broken back. His condition gave rise to suspicions thal “Lord” Ichiri may kill potential deserters among his followers and if necessary defend his kingdom clone. FUrthermore K it. is not known how much ammunition Ichiri has left nor where hie lean be found on the island. \ Meanwhile, preparations for the expedition gave; rise to renewed speculation that some Japanese may still be hiding on Guam.
