Painless Childbirth Has Certain Hazards
By HERMAN IL lUNDESEN, M.D. "-PAINLESS" childbirth can be harmful to both the mother and baby if the wrong technique is used. Unfortunately. there are mothers who at times refuse to tolerate a little pain during birth. 1 know most of you mothers don’t realize that you can stand pain-relieving drugs much better than your unborn baby. No Ideal Drug While many drugs have been used to give labor relief, no drug has been found to be Ideal for this purpose. If given too early, some drugs may prolong labor. Others may make the mother-to-be noncooperative and extremely restless. This may change what would have been a normal birth into an abnormal one. Also, if a drug is given too close to the time of birth. ths baby may
biles. The plan is to catch the chronic traffic taw violators. A conscientious citiaen won't mind, because he tries at all times to abide by the law. A few reckless, careless drivers will say it is unfair. If it reduces fatalities, accidents and highway hazards in general, certainly it should be given a trial. 0 o The United States Senate has opened its extra special session to determine whether that body should censure one of its members, Sen. Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin for conduct unbecoming to a Senator. It isn’t so important what the actual outcome of this unusual meeting will be. The important thing is that Justice be dofie. It that group of men studies the question before it and renders a just decision, then the government will have functioned properly. If the members vote from a strictly political standpoint on the question, the entire affair will be a waste of money. We shall all await and see. 0 o / There is much evidence around Decatur that home owners are burning leaves on local asphalt streets. This is not only a violas tion of a city ordinance, but it is an expensive practice. The intense heat from the fires causes irreparable damage, which only replacement can adjust It means an additional expenditure by the city to repair the damage, when this money could be used for other needed street improvements. Arrangements can easily be made to have the leaves hauled away, or burned in a place, not covered with blacktop. - -» o—' O' — —• The bird and small game hunting season opened today in Indiana. Before Oe season closes there wll be deaths and injuries in parts of the state as the result of carelessness with guns. Hunting is a great sport. Hunters are urged to be careful. Treat your gun with caution; as the deadly weapon it is. Don’t take chances. Remember; in addition to your regular hunting license, it is necessary to get a federal license to kill ducks and certain other birds. Read the Indiana game laws, —provided by your agent who issues your license. Ask for permission to hunt and treat the other man's property as if it were your own. Obey no hunting signs. With just a few little precautions, you'U have a better time and make it much easier to hunt the next time.

Another Problem Some drugs may also cause an Increase in the amount of bleeding at the time of delivery. I believe a mother should be willing to stand a little pain if she may be virtually assured that her baby will be born alive. And 1 think most mothers will agree with me. QUESTION AND ANSWER Miss O.

SYNOPSIS Norman Brandt and nurse Cynthia Doyle had first met at the scene of an accident near Washington. D. C. He'd tried to date" her. to pay her court, but Cynthia's romantic Interest centers about Dr. Sellers with whom she works at the clinic. CHAPTER SEVEN CYNTHIA did not wrench free from the doctor now. Her cheeks were scarlet, her eyes blazing, yet she felt both angry and glad. Maybe she was waking mm up; "You cast vrtif Me *to do unything,’ she said. "At least, not tike that Maybe 1 will take a vacation a little -later on. As for coming to my senses, 1 agree with you it's about time 1 did. 1 like the work tn the clime, yes; 1 love the children. But I’m not just an—an old automaton, like you. I—l'm a woman, as well as a nurse.” To nef dismay, she found her voice breaking; she telt like a tool But ne could not talk that way to her, snake ner when she should be shaking nim—and the thought of going away from mm, when ne made It an order, was unbearable. For *it was Walt she loved, not just the clinic. “Well now, see here." His whole manner had changed; he was no longer the physician comforting a sick, or unruly, patient He had always thought ot Cynthig„M._jL rock: she was so dependable, so strong, tor all ner femininity—a wonderful nurse and pnys I c a 1 therapist But she was just a girl, he could see now. A mighty pretty one. with ner eyez misty with tears, ner cheeks so tike a rose petal ... He nad never taken time to realize just how pretty hu young assistant was. He took out his pocket handkerchief, but instead of handing it to I ner. ne placed one big hand firmly , on her shoulder and with the other I dabbed at those tears. “I’m sorry it I got rough.” His voice was gentle. “I’m just a big lug. You take your vacation whenever you want to. And when you do. I'll be sunk. I know you could find much easier work, work that would bring you much more money as well—but I’d be lost without you, Cynthia." That was a little better. And it was wonderful to have him practically put ms arm around her, dry her tears. Nurses did not shed them, but women did. Sometimes j they were a woman's best weapon against a man. , - “I—l won’t do anything—in a hurry,” she promised. But she had ! won too much to give in altogether, or too soon. “Good! Now then, take my hanky—blow your nose.” That sounded again like a doctor's order to a wilful child, but tie amended It by adding, "And get your things —let the test of the tidying up go until morning. I'U walk home with you. We'll atop somewhere and have coffee, or dinner, if you ilka." Cynthia blew her nose obediently. She returned his handkerchief. Her eyes, looking up into his, were clear once more; they were a soft violet-blue, not black with anger or wounded pride. "Some ether time," she said. "I'd love to have dinner with you, Walt, but I'm having it with someone else tonight.” "You mean—some other man?" "Well, yes.” CoPi-nzhL ISH, by

What is the suggested word* ing to engrave on the announcements of the second marriage of a widow of mature years?
"Oh. I see.” The young doctor's voice was not his professional one. It sounded tike any average man's who might be annoyed at having been refused a date and who finds himself jealous at suddenly discovering there’s another man in the picture. “Is it anyone I know?" Walt asked. —— ———: "In away,” Cynthia said. "It‘s the man Whose car ran into Julius. You see, t Jntfl WlgwitfUl WMh, 1 mean, when 1 stopped by the hospital to see how Julius was getting along." “1 see." The young doctor’s tone was still unprofessional. It did not sound as though he “saw” at all. "I’m rather surprised,” he said, “that you would let a man like that take you out to dinner." “How do you know what kind of man ne is?" Cynthia found herself defending Norman BrandL "He can't oe much oi a man, driving around town like a maniac, running down children. He s probably a rich playboy." “1 don't Oeheve be la” Cynthia continued to defend Norman. She could not tel] Walt that Mr. Brandt had not been driving the car., “I ' don't believe tie la a playboy. And ' 1 doubt U be is very rich. Anyway,” she added, smiling slightly, “I believe 1 can choose my ' friends —” ”1 suppose that’s right” Walt’s 1 tone was even gruffer; that deep ' scowl bad etched itselt between ms eyebrows. He did not like the idea ot Cynthia s being friendly I with thia fellow, even if she did m--1 sist he was all nght "Well, per--1 haps we can have dinner together some other evening,” ne suggested. "Say, next Friday?” r ' “Friday would be fine." Cynthia realized that this made It a date, naming the evening. Always before when they had seen each i other outside the clinic, it had just i been accidental or at leakt not planned. ' Her meeting with Norman 1 Brandt had been accidental, al- ■ though she had bad a suspicion ’ that perhaps he had visited the hospital hoping to sev her, as well as little Julius. Julius, childlike, had given this away. ■ His small face, with the large dark eyes, had lighted up when 1 Cynthia had come into his room. 1 "It’s the Nurse Lady!” be bad cried. “I knew you’d come to-see i me. I told Mr. Brandt 1 knew I you’d come. Nurse Lady.” “Os course I was coming to see you, Julius.” Cynthia had given ’ the child an affectionate paL She had thought. Well, 1 must have • been under discussion! I She bad thought how nice It i was that the little boy could have i such a light airy room. It was i filled with flowers which she supI posed have come from Norman Brandt—possibly some from the • actress, Reba Raye. Cynthia had brought the little boy some fruit, i which she had placed in a bowl on the bedside table. She also had brought him some picture books. “Oh, thank you, Ndrse Lady!" Julius bad said when «he r showed , the books to him. “1 love to hear stories—can you read one to me? 1 told Mr. Brandt bow nice you are. 1 told him you're nice to all I us kids.” The big dark eyes were Adelaida Humphries Distributed by Kin,

filled with adoration as they looked at the pretty young nurse. “Ot course I'll read you a story." Cynthia had thought it would be hard to retuse him anything. He had looked so small in the long, high bed. His leg was In a cast clear up to his hip. He would have to lie flat on his back for many weeks. —- — “1 told Mr. Brandt about the time you, came to pur ffouse,” the little boy had gone on, "when ‘mama was so sick. And how you brought a bagjet of groceries and even fixed our supper, and how you sent*-some wood and coal 'cause our house was cold." "You shouldn't tell all those things to a stranger," Cynthia had said. g, "Oh, but Mr. Brandt’s not a stranger,” the child had protested. "He comes to see me every day. He s a swell guy,° Mr. Brandt is." "Has he been here today ?” Cynthia nad asked. * - Juh us had shaken his dark, curly head. “No. He asked what tune 1 thought you’d come. Nurse Lady. 1 told him you couldn’t come till the dime closed. Pm sorry if 1 shouldn't ot told Mr.. Brandt all those things." 4 Cynthia had said it was all right: she could not scold Julius. She nad read him a story and had beenabout to start another when Norman Brandt had put in an appearance. He nad pretended to be quite surprised at hnding her sitting by ;Juliuss bedside, and Cynthia had i teen amusco at his-pretense. They 'had chatted a while and Norman (had shown them how to work a puzzle ne nad with aim: and as soon as she could, Cynthia nad said she would have to leave. Norman had followed her outside the door. That been when he had asked her to have dinner with mm the following evening. He had eaid, “You might as well say yes. I won’t take no. I’U just keep on asking you.” Which was one reason why Cynthia had said yes. She suspected that he would be just that persistent. She might as well have dinner with him and get it over with. She would tell him that it was impossible for them to be friends. Os course, as she had realized afterwards, she would have to be subtle about it. She could not just come right out and say, “See here, we can't be friends; you belong to Roz." - It might not seem quite fair for Cynthia to be having dinner with Norman under these circumstances. But she had to straighten things out. And now Walt felt the same way about it—that she shouldn't be friends with Norman Brandt, or even have dinner with him. However, Walt really had no right to dictate who her friends should be—or with whom she should have dinner. Maybe it would do that young doctor a world of good to know that some other man thought of his assistant nurse as an attractive and desirable dinner companion. Certainly Walt had seemed a bit annoyed. And had it not been tor her date wtth Norman, he might not have suggested that they make a definite date tor Friday. So Cynthia decided it was just as well she had said yes. 1 (To Be Continued; is VsatuTM arsdicats. , j
Mayor Houk In Testimony At Murder Trial Bay Village Mayor Qives Testimony In Sheppard Case CLEVELAND (INS) — Dr. Sam Sheppard's "best friend” testified today he appealed to the young osteopath to confess the bludgeon murder, of his wife, if he were guilty, and was told: , “I couldn't have done it and 1 didn’t do it." The friend, Bay Village Mayor J. Spencer Houk, said at the trial of the accused wife-killer that he pleaded with the defendant on July 21 “on a friendship basis" to talk. JUnder defense cross-examina-tion, Houk declared that two fishermen on a pier near the Sheppard home told police around 6:45 a.m. July 4th they saw “two people near the Sheppard beach some time earlier.” The.all-important question of the exact time the two unidentified persons were observed from a distance of 200 yards was not asked. The murder was committed between 3 and 5:50. a. m. Dr. Sheppard claims the killer escaped along the beach of his Lake Erie home, after knocking him out. __ Houk also testified that "some footprints” were observed on the beach which led to the pier where the two men were fishing. The mayor’s wife. Mrs. Esther Houk, told the jury of seven men and five women that Lake Erie was "very rough" and the waters were “pounding” against the breakwall at 3 a. m. the morning of the murder. She said both Sheppard brothers, Dr. Richard and Stephen, roamed through the house for nearly two hours before the coroner arrived at the scene. She said Dr. Steve took away Dr. Sam before coroner Samuel R. Gerber came at 8 a. m. Relating the conversation which took place at the Bay Village city hall, the slow-talking state's witness declared: „ “I asked him if he had ever had a better friend than I and he said ‘No, did anyone question it?' “I appealed to him on a friendship basis and said, ‘Sam if by any chance you did this, come out and say it and if it was done by you it was done in a bitter rage." and with his entire family and friends 'being brought into- it, I said if he did it and came out and admitted it. we'd all still be behind him. ’ .■ • “I suggested he leave because (didn't know what was coming

CHAPTER EIGHT SINCE she could not let Norman Brandt call for her at the apartment, because of Roz, flor at Che clinic, because ot Walt, Cynthia had said she would meet him at a little,, Italian restaurant tn the neighborhood. 1 bate all this secrecy, she thought, as she changed her clothes in the dressing room at the clinic. But this will put an end to it. She could not get herself rigged up like Roa in ner black and sequins, but Cynthis was especially fond of her beige spring suit. She bad a pretty eggshell blouse to go with It, and her small, ofl-the-face green bat was comfortable and becoming. As an added dash, she wore a tiny Boutonniere of pink and blue bachelor button*. And at least she had her shoes on, she thought, as she looked around tor Norman. He was wailing. He was perched on a bign stool at the counter chatting chummily with the tat proprietor, Papa Pinelli, as everyone called him. The restaurant did not have much class, but the food was excellent. And Papa Pinelli was related to the Mancinis. "1 was afraid you wouldn’t show 'up," Norman said, getting off his htgb stool to greet her. His eyes smiled down into hers as though to say, Here we are in on another secret. Or perhaps she Imagined this because of ner own guilty conscience. No doubt he tiftd that same way ot looking into every womans eyes—Roza and Reba Kaye's, ahd goodness knows how many other*. "1 told you I'd come," she said, “though 1 shouldn't have.” “I'm glad you’re the kind of girl who keeps her word,” he replied gravely. “As tor why you shouldn't be here—is there a law against it T Papa Ptnclli tells me he has the best spaghetti in the country. And I'm mighty fond of spaghetti.” Papa Pinelli bustled out now to escort them to a choice table. He recognized Cynthia, as almost everyone in the neighborhood knew the “Nurse Lady" by sight. She sometimes ate tn his rcstaurant with Nora when they did not feel like cooking. It was not swanky enough for Roz. She would

next He then said the real reason he came to the office was he felt Dr. Alan Moritz, of Western Reserve university had interviewed him and had expressed a rather acute interest in me. I told Sam 4, wasn’t surprised because I had just learned he had mentioned my name." Houk was enraged by Sheppard family hints that he might have, been involved in the Fourth of July murder of pregnant Marilyn Sheppard. The mayor took a lie detector test given by Dr. Morits and was cleared of any implication in the brutal crime. Chief defense counsel William Corrigan demanded a mistrial, claiming, the questions asked of the pale, sickly-appearing witness were irrelevant to the murder, case. Judge Edward Blythin overruled him. Indiana Ranks Tops In Army Recruiting M/Sgt.

Norman said, it it suited her, be believed a booth would he cozier than a table. “And we want to be cozy,” he said, after they were settled in a booth and Papa Pinelli had taken their order. "We want to make up for all the time we ve lost. Start at the beginning, Cynthia, and tell, me all about yourself." This was not the conversation she nad planned. “There s nothing really to tell,” she said. “1 come from a small town an Indiana. A large family, three brothers and two sisters—” “Don t tell me there are more al home like you!” That was an oldie, but she had to smile. She told him one sister was older, married, with' three youngsters ot her own; the other was still in school, studying to be a teacher. And besides these, there were tier mother and dad, a grandmother who made ner home with them, and numerous aunts and uncles and cousins, all living within a stone's throw. “It sounds nice,” Norman said approvingly. “It sounds American —and wonderful Why did you ever leave it to come to Virginia and make othe: people's kids well ?

Churchill Is Still Optimistic On Peace Expresses Belief Peace Is Possible LONDON (INS) — Prime minister Sir Winston Churchill has expressed again the belief that ‘t'he powers of west and east ought to try to live in a friendly, peaceful way with each other." But he stressed that such a peace was possible only it the free nations were dealing from a position of strength. The nearly 80-year-old Sir Winston spoke Tuesday night to a distinguished gathering in London’s rebuilt Guild Hall, the traditional seat of the city’s government. The occasion was the annual Lord Mayor’s banquet which customarily is used by the prime minister to make a foreign policy - statement. Sir Winston, who it is known would like to cap his half-century career by taking part in the creation of a sustained period, of peace, cheerfully admitted: “I am an optimist.” From that position, he declaared: 'We might find ourselves in A few years moving along a broad, smooth causeway of peace and plenty instead of roaming and peering round along the rim of Hell. . .
