Doctors also do not know now to treat the persons still hospitaliied with symptoms of high fever, congested lungs, and chest pains, Bachman said. "Some are getting antibiotics and some aren't and that hasn't had an effect one way or the other," be said, There are no signs that the outbreak was abating. A 73- year-old Philadelphia woman died Tuesday night and a Pitts- burgh man died early today, bringing the death toll to JJ. "The disease has not leveled off," said Bachman. "Appar- ently both the number of deaths and the number of new cases have Increased and are increas- More than 1,000 federal and state medical researchers have been nwbUizgd to identify the disease.

At the federal Center for Disease Control in Atlanta, researchers planned today to examine the Brst cultures grown from tissue samples tak- en from victims of the IDness. The cultures could provide a due. "We an ruling out nothing," said Dr. Walter Dowdte, direc- tor of virology at the center. "This couM be anything from an Infectious disease to a tot- to." AD of the known victims of the disease including two hospitalized in New Jersey and one In New York attended or wen in some way connected with a state American Legion convention in Philadelphia that ended 11 days ago.

It was earner reported a Con- necticut man also had the dis- ease, but Connecticut health of- ficials later said he does not have It The 21st victim, James Syket, 79, of Pittsburgh, died early today at Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh. Hospital officials said he had attended the convention and showed the same symptoms as other vic- tims. There has been no confirmed evidence of secondary spread of the disease, Bachman said, but he added that it was still too early to discount the possi- bility that the disease may be spread to others. In an Interview early today, however, a state health depart- ment spokesman said there were six unconfirmed reports of the disease among people bi Philadelphia who did not attend the convention. "That has not been verified," said the spokesman, Bob Cos- tello.

"It looks like It might be so." All 'of the vtctunt have ex- perienced the same flu-iilie symptoms; headache high fe- ver, rnngested ones and chest pains Bachman said those symp- toms are.consistent with the. swine-type flu that appeared in New Jersey this year, prompt- ing plans for a nationwide Im- muiusanon program. They are also consistent with viral pneu- monia; he said. BILL'S STANDARD SERVICE STATION is Superior!

In the wake of increasing surrounding the strike by members of the' United Paperworkers International Union at Kern's Bakery in London, the management of Kern's has potted a reward of for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for various shootings and bombings In widespread areas 'of Uw county.

Anyone who has Information regarding these alleged arts should contact either the state police, the sheriff's office or city police In London. Several Kern's workers stffl on the job, Including recant hirees, have apparently been the target of dynamitings and throughout the county in the days since the walkout began.

"We could hire twice si many guards as we have now," said Oakes "It's prefectly legal and we will (hire twice at many) If we have to." Oakes said there was no' violence in the county before the walkout began. "I think it's evident what's behind Into," he added. 'The attacks are directed at Kern's employes." Plans for a boycott of Kan's products will be the unton's next step If tht dispute cannot bt solved at the bargaining table.

Stewart said he will contact local councils of the AF1XTO In Kentucky and the state council urging support of an organised boycott. .1 think that will bring Kern's to their knees real quick;" said Stewart, who added that he would Inform George Meany, pttaUant of the AFM30, about the possibility of a national boycott. Abrams said UPW was taking steps across the state to inform people about Kern's brand names In an effort to gat a boycott underway. Whits and other relatives of striking workers have appeared in local stores and supermarkets asking shoppers hot to buy Kern's products. Larry Brock, president of Local 1771, said he was "con- fident" about the outcome of At walkout and acknowledged contributions from the United Mine Workers Union and the UPW local at the Champion paper punt.

"We're lighting lor the county and everyone In the county," concluded Brock as the audience rose to Its feet in a standing ovation for the local union official. lAbrams assured the workers that the strike was "legal and authorized" and urged them to attract support of laborers from other companies in the London area. "We do not Intend to leave Caron Spinning," arid Abrams, "and we believe we have tht support of the majority of the employes at Griffin Pie. And we have plans for others." "As long as you people want us," said Henderahott, "well stay in this community, whether it's tunMivw, next week or next year."
