When the gunman was unable to open the door, Castellucio said, he said he would surrender and begged not to be shot. Castellucio and the woman's hus band, Walter, 39, then grappled with him and seized his gun. Slightly cut about the face.

Vierra was treated at Highland Hospital before ne was taken to the city jail. John C. Osborne, 50, of 1645 47th the bartender at the Jubilee Bar, identified Vierra as the man who entered his bar about 1:15 a.m. and threatened to shoot if Osborne i didn't turn over his money. The bartender at the Club Ninety-Eight, Nutce Castellucio, 38, of 2020 98th told po lice that Vierra entered shortly before the 2 a.m.

I He said he left the sate un locked and walked back to the bar when Vierra puljed a gun from his coat and ordered him to turn oyer the Castellucio said he told Vierra he; didn't know the combination, but the gunman insisted that he return to the rear The bartender said he went back to the office as directed. But instead of getting the money put, he slammed the door of the safe and 'grabbed a 'pistol se learns from the family that, after a dizzy spell, blackout, or perhaps a fall, there came changes in character and perhaps ability to work." He said onset of the disease possibly can be delayed by avoidance of arroverweight condition and reducing the amount of fatty substance, cholesterol, in the diet. Dr.

Alvarez said that medical reports indicate that much of the disability on the first day of such a stroke is due to shock or edema and "remarkable improvement" has been seen after the prompt administration of cortisone. Other later treatments suggested include taking an iodine compound or thyroid gland substance to improve the circulation and reduce the blood cholesterol. i He emphasized that the effects of such a little stroke can be exaggerated and that belief that a third stroke is fatal is "old folklore." "I tell my patients of some of the many persons I have seen who. after a stroke, became remarkably wejl. I may tell of Pasteur who, for 27 yeaxs after his big stroke, did much' of his best I Writing the Journal of the American Medical Dr.

Alvarez said: The condition usually appears in susceptible persons after 38 years of age although it has occurred in persons in their 20s. Some victims live1 25 or more years after suffering the first such little stroke and some persons have been known to survive as many as 50 such strokes. i persons go as long as 10 or 15 years between strokes and some lose symptoms quickly and improve strikingly after a little i "In tnillions of cases little thromboses (blood clots) in the brain slowly, over the course of 10 or 15 years, pull a person down, slow' him up, age him. and eventually kill him." he said, adding: i little stroke may be expected whenever (1) a man or woman past 38 or so has a mental and nervous disability that is out of all proportion to the little indigestion, abdominal or thoracic pain complained oiJ (2) a nervous breakdown a queer group of symptoms come suddenly on a certain, day, and (3) one flnoe Easier ityfledl 1104 WASHINGTON ST.
