New Location For Burned-Out Case Mike Shannon, owner of the Blackstone cafe,' stated today that he will re-open his case business at a new location on North Second street sometime in April. Shannon stated that he has leased the building owned by Carl Gattshall at 254 N. Second street: which was formerly occupied by the Salvation Army. A permit hearing is scheduled for March 24 before the local alcoholic beverage board. The hearing - will be held to transfer his former li-

cense to the neyv location. Preparations are now being made by workmen to salvage several pieces of equipment first believed lost in the 3100,000 fire which gutted the inside of the former Blackstone case in the Lose building* and damaged the Lose apartments and Wagner’s cigar store. Shannon stated that if his liquor license transfer is approved by the local beverage board and the state alcoholic beverage board, he expects to re-open for business duiing the first part of April. Wagner’s cigar store, also heavily damaged in the huge fire, reopened last Friday after being forced to close for nearly two

months for re-decorating and rebuilding purposes. Sutton’s Jewelry store is still in the process of remodeling, and painters have finished repainting Schafer's store. However, both business establishments are open for business. The A. S. C. office, located above Sutton's, is also finishing the re-painting task forced upon them the fire. Begun’s Mens Store is also being repainted. At the present time, workmen are engaged in repairing the upper story over the cigar store. At least one member has health insurance in about 73 per cent of all American families. *

John Foster Dulles Slightly Radioactive WASHINGTON (UPD - Secretary of State John Foster Dulles has been slightly radioactive since Tuesday when he received an injection of ray-emitting gold at Walter Reed Army Hospital. But there has never been a time, authorities said today, when President Eisenhower or other callers couldn’t have looked in on him with complete safety. They could, in fact, have perched beside his bed for hours without suffering any detectable effects, but “it would not have been good medical practice,’’ one expert told United Press International. For 10 years it has been standard practice when cancer patients are treated with radiogold to isolate them to some extent. Attendants who administer the injections handle them with great care and wear lead aprons. This is to keep them from getting radiation doses greater than the “permissible maximum’’ set for such workers. Visitors, if the patient is able and willing to receive any, are required to keep a certain distance from the bed —a distance usually marked by a line drawn in colored chalk. Visitors who disobeyed the rule would not receive enough radiation to sicken .them or even to produce effects detectable by the most sensitive tests. But they would get some, and good radiation safety practice forbids that they get any dosage which can be prevented. Radiogpld is administered as infinitesimal particles suspended in a liquid which, in Dulles’ case, was injected into the abdominal cavity. It also is used in treatment of chest cancer. It is not a cure, but rather a palliative. Its radiations attack free-floating cancer cells and so help to curb spread of the disease. They make the patient more comfortable by tending to reduce accumulation of fluids associated with abdominal cancer. ■• . ; - “ Vvl B UNVWIn the story about Miss Bobbielou Butler, who won a sweater on WANE-TV’s Dance Date, it was erroneously stated in Wednesday’s edition that Miss Butler danced with her brother to win the prize.
