nW : — -v u; - — Plastic Replacement of Bone Aids Fractured Hip in Aaed

f 'nir ■ it HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. .RDLY a day passes but that dlscdveries helpful to people 11 hages are being brought i. For exampfe, plastics are help ng older people recover fractured hips which were ci-ly a serious problem. y, frabture is usually more us in an older person, for his pones and tissues dp not mend as quickly or &S well as those of the youth. This difficulty is multiplied ypjen the broken bone is as large anjd important as the hip joint, j i Enforced Inactivity |jlk further ganger comes from tfip enforced inactivity from this kihd of break. The old method of setting a break and putting it in tti cast meant that the person had th 1 lit in bed for a liong period of as long as a year, when the ■ I Healing was slow. |H An older person cannot stand this inactivity as well as a young Betson, and may develop many complications, such as pneumonia Ifid blood clots in the veins of the iwSs- Cipts are especially dangerhup as they may work loose and travel to the heart or brain. Hl Modern orthopedic surgeons did muett to overcome these danXk when they learned to set Sc ken hips with pins and nahs.

TJie deepest part of the ocean has just bejen found. A British Vessel which has been plumbing the Pacific, finds[ a depth of 35,232 feet some 200 miles southwest of Guam. The deepest stretch previously, known was the Mindanao Trench in the Philippine \ waters, which was 34,440 feet. Both are deep enough to swallow up the world’s highest peak; Mt. Everest in the Himalayas, which is 29,141 feet high and leaye never a trace. What a wonderful place —-after the Grand Canyon has been filled with discarded rajor/ blades —-to sink-all the rest of the junk in the world! —? —o m Theodore Hobrock, always abbreviated hi s r ~given name, , “Theo,” was a stalwart citizen of our; community, active all his life [ in and 10ng associated with the First State Bank of this city. Prominent in his neighborhood and church, M r - Ijlobrock was a representative of the sturdy - I T families in Root township who devote their energy to agriculture pursuits and\ furtherance of basic t factors which help build better communities. Since 1921, he was a director of the First State Bank z and served as vice-president of this financial institution for the past 17 years. His unexpected ' death occurred just a few 1 hours after he, had attended a monthly meeting of , fellow directors and spreads sorrow in this community. He, will long be remembered for his participation and devotion to • interests that contributed to the progress of this community. , — 0 — i Advirtising stimulates sales . and biiles keep a business going ‘and growing. Merwin Deehter of Indiana; univereity's business school, is/conducting a three-day advertising and sales School here, iii cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce and the 'retail merchants. Through the courtesy of the Citizens Telephone Company, \ rooms above the utility office huve;' been made available for ' guests to attend Mr. Dechter’s short course in advertising and i * retailing. Decatur has the; repu- ■ tat ion 1 of being one of the most progressive shopping centers in the state ami merchants who wish to ‘.’ki|ep up” oh the latest metiibds - ■ J ‘ ; L /, i- V in merchandising will benefit from i the business talks of ! the; sajes attend last eyeping’s lecture, check in tonight and Thursday at the Telephone Company’s' conference room. . s.

■ I Many older people who would not have survived a broken hip were walking again soon after surgery. Serious Problem Remained 'V. A fractured head of a thighbone remained a serious problem, however, even with pins. Many times, after pinning;, the head of the bone would die and doom the person to became a permanent cripple. A plastic bone replacement can now be used in this complication. The head of the thigh bone (femur) is removed land a plastic head inserted in its place. With this type of operation, an aged 1 person -can walk within three weeks of the time of the fracture. \ Thus, orthopedic surgeons and mdderri chemists have worked together to overcome a dangerous threat to older people, and hate actually lengthened theit lives. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS D. W.: I have been told that I have fibroid tumors of the womb. Is there any way in which I can have this condition cured except by surgery? Answer: Usually, the best treat- ; ment for fibroid tumors is their surgical removal. However, cer- • tain cases can be helped by ri- ; dium or X-ray treatments. ‘
