The superintendent of the hmpilal visited the room and l introduced the two physicians to each other. The superintendent said "What's he got, a coronary?" On learning that this was the case. he said, "Oh. that's nothing. I've had a half dozen coronary attacks. I go to bed for a month. and then come back to work." Naturally. this was cheering naive to my friend. As this lying in bed with nothing to think about but his heart siroke is bound to depress the heart pat- ient. scme months ago I described what is ral1Pd "cororlary armchair” treatment for coronary thrombosis which is now being used by many -heart specialists in both hospital and private practice. It nlighi be well for the sake of the morale of these patients if they were given this treatment: it would give hope and assurance. 1 am therefore repeating some of the facts about coronary armchair ther- apy as given a few months ago in the Journal of the American Medi- cal Association by Drs. Samuel A. Levine and Bernard Lawn. Peter Bent llospital and Harvard Uni- versity. Boston. ' It is only fair to state that while complete bed rests is the usual treatment in an attack of coronary tlirombcsls. these physicians state that the sitting position i.n a Chair with feet off the floor prevents a part of the harm of strict bed rest. The prompt improvement shown by some patients desperately ill with congestive heart failure after being placed in a. chair is particularly impressive. This method of treat- ment also appears to have benche- ia.l effects upon the psychological tmental and emotional) state of the patient and facilities rehabili- tation irestoration to health and to work.) In 81 cases of acute coronary thrombosis. Drs. Levine and Lawn report '79 patients were kept in chairs for varying and increasing portions of the day. beginning not later than the first week of the at- tack usually within the first three days. The other two patients stari- ed sitting up on the eighth and ninth days. All the other usual methods of treatment for coronary thrombosis were employed. No complications due to the armchair treatment were observed and no evidence could be found that the armchair treatment was responsible for any of the deaths that occurred during this E Engagement ' i I i of ' iNotl'e Dame Academy.

Y WHAT NEXT 1' ANSWER: When will she get around to sug- gesting you to give up breathing? You alone. Jerry, can decide how much Eva is worth. but my guess is that from now on. you won't be able to do anything you like. What Eva doesn't think of, folks will. Of course, giving up these things won't do any harm, and if the girl is honestly convinced that she objects tolthem on moral or religious grounds. her requests are justified. However. if her idea is simp- ly to mold you into a cazbon copy of her sedate fam- ily, better watch out. l-lenpecking comes easy-and has the darnedest habit of sneaking up quietly. Muriel Nissan DEAR MISS DIX: I'm qmte an agraotive girl of l6. A very nice boy of 17 has just. moved illto our neighbcrhood. and while he's very irlcndiy when we meet. hes never asked for a date. How can I become acquainted with him? CHRISTINE ANSWER: Since hes a newcomer to the neighborhood. wouldn't it be nice to suggest a picnic so he could get to meet the other young people? You have overcome the first obs-tnclc by getting him on a friendly speaking basis; take advantage of the opportunity and invite him to a get-together. This could be a simple barbecue in your own backyard. n square-dancing session in someone's recreation room or. as suggested. a picnic or beach party. DEAR MISS DIX: My 20-year-old sister lms been going for the past year with a young man of 26. They date at less: twice a week. but the man has never mentioned an engagement or marriage: My sister has asked where she stands with him. and his answer is that hes not ready to settle dmvn.
