High ranking United States Army and Navy officers planned a visit today with the Duke of Windsor in Nassau be for setting out on a exploration trip to find suitable defense bases on the outlying Bahama Islands.

Phillips to handle 100 angry students from South Hills High School who picketed his home. Phillips gave the students an impromptu lecture on "The American Way," telling them that "Good Americans" use petitions to settle their difficulties. One of the youths had threatened to "knock the house down" if Phillips' wife didn't withdraw her petition to change the school's name to "William Menard Davidson School," in honor of a former education official.

Then Phillips invited the pickets to fill their pockets with lucious apples and pears from trees on his lawn. That went over big. The students agreed to try petitioning.

New War Burn Treatment Revealed to Physicians Philadelphia, Oct. 2, (JP) A new method of treating burns, which Dr. Walter E. Lee of Pennsylvania Hospital declared would be of great value in wartime, was described to the four day annual convention of the Pennsylvania Medical Society. The treatment, announced by Drs.

Lee, J. Russell Elkinton and William A. Wolff, adapts the use of blood plasma which can be separated from the liquid part of the blood and if necessary carried onto battlefields. Dr. Lee explained yesterday if SLIGHT PAUSE FOR A WHEEL True kin' on down front street, this truck broke a rear wheel just at the Walnut street bridge and just at the morning rush hour.

So if you were caught in a traffic jam, this is the reason. that the plasma is injected into the viens where it acts as a kind of suction pump, drawing back into the vessels blood which has spread out into surrounding tissues. It is used in conjunction with chemicals applied directly to the burned areas. Dr. Temple Fay, professor of neurosurgery at Temple University, described an adaptation of the "frozen sleep" technique to relieve pain from fractured skulls, tumors and incurable neuralgic disorders.

A device resembling a hood is fitted over the patient's head. In side the hood are coils through which ice water is circulated, reducing temperature of the head and neck to 40 degrees farenheit. The patient does not become unconscious and Dr. Fay said some neuralgic sufferers have been relieved of pain for from one to several, months. York Doctor Warns Dr.
