POWER CITYNÍwS

SPRINGDALE, PA. AND VICINITY

by

Edward A. Mattie Branch 296

A number of our members have (asked me about the New Name Contest that was held last year. Apparently this is a closely guarded secret, for I have been keeping close tabs on the Journal for some hint ■as to the results of the contest. The only hint that appeared was in the minutes of the Board of Directors’ meeting- which stated that they will receive another report on the congest in September. So you can expect this matter to be a long drawn-out affair. It would have been nice to have the new name announced at the banquet in Columbus, Ohio.

COMING EVENTS

On May 22nd, Arthur Nagy and his orchestra will appear at the Home.

The picnic date for Branch 296 is Sunday, June 15, at Horvath’s Grove. Kolbász, stuffed cabbage, etc. will be served. Music by Arthur Nagy and his orchestra. So keep this date in mir nil

BOWLERS

Our howling team will be on hand

‘in Columbus for the tournament. Members on the bowling team are Jim Borasso, Jim Balku, Louis, Antal, Jesse Barta, Nick Koricich and Ed Mattie.

SENTINEL

By: ANDREW JANOVICS, Manager

This month’s article will be short as not much occurred during the (month.

Bowling is finished for this season. We men were not able to get (the women completely down from the first place averages. In the final scoring on individual averages Margaret Fodor came in first place, Bob Zubor second and Ollie Kunstadb 'third. The winning- team, members of which all received trophies, was Marge Fodor’s team. My team was 'tie with hers for the first place, therefore we had to play three extra games and, sure enough, they had (to win. But, best wishes to all the winners (and losers too). As you read this the bowlers are about or. their way to Columbus, Ohio for (the tournament, with hopes of bowling- well. From our branch there will be five men and five women. Let’s wish them lots of luck.

As I will be in Columbus May 29th and a few days thereafter with the bowlers, if any of you have any

important branch affairs that have to be taken care of kindly contact our President, Mr. Joseph Irockv, or our Secretary, Mr. Louis Barna ,'at Eastgate 7-7794, who will Bte kind enough to give you their willing cooperation.

In April 1952, our member Ladislaus Csontos passed away to his eternal rest. The funeral services were held from the Hollerbach Funeral Home on Armitage Avenue. To his dear widow, Mrs. Elizabeth Csontos, we extend our deepest sympathy. May He Rest In Peace.

This is written before our Maymeeting in the new hall. I do hope that many of you were present and (that many more of you will come Ito our social to dedicate our new hall on the third Friday in June. Refreshments will be served at a nominal cost. Come one, Come ALL! Bring your friends. June 20th in Room No. 2 of the Social Turner Hall at 1651 West Belmont Avenue.

COUNTY MEDICAL SOCIETY

Measles is practically universal.

* » *

Ninety five out of every 100 adults living in cities, and a slightly lower percentage of rural) residents have had the disease.

* * *

Measles is found in all parts of (the world, in every climate, race, nationality and at every social and economic level.

* * *

All persons are considered susceptible until they have had the measles, although most babies born of mothers who have had the disease are immune for the first few months of life.

* * *

Owing to uniform susceptibility, measles is extremely communicable.

* if. *

In cities, over half of the cases occur in children under five years of age.

* ¥ *

Permanent immunity usually follows recovery from the first attack of measles.

* ¥ *

The characteristics of measles include fever, catarrhal inflammation of eyes, nose, and throat, congestion of the mucous membranes of the nose and mouth and later eruption on the skin which spreads to all parts of the body.

* * *

These symptoms appear about /ten days after exposure to the disease and the rash breaks out about fourteen days after exposure.

Measles renders the patient especially susceptible to secondary infections such as laryngitis, bronchopneumonia, encephalitis.

* %. * *

Preventive measures include protecting young children from exposure to contact with others who have fever and acute catarrhal symptoms, and immunization of infants and children under three years of age.

* ip *

There is no effective drug for measles after the disease has developed, but rest in bed, adequate .'food and fluids, and prelection of the eyes are beneficial.

* if. *=

In cases involved with complications, medical supervision is important.----------------------DAUGHTER OF EX-BRANCH OFFICER DIES AFTER OPERATION
