Home Care Takes Polio Therapy into P March of Dimes Has Therapists' Training Program "Polios are the bravest kids in the world. If you could see the fight they put up to get back in the swim of life, there isn't anything that you wouldn't do for them." The speaker is Miss Lois Olmsted, superintendent of physical therapy for Orange county, under whose jurisdiction and care will come all of the polio patients stricken during the present epidemic. "Amost everyday of the year," Miss Olmsted said, "some child or adult in the county is on his way back on the road to living a useful life due to the rebuilding and retraining benefits of physical therapy. Basically," she said," physical therapy is the art of helping patients back to the maximum use of their bodies." The physical therapist explained that the four therapists working out of the county health office take over all the polio cases in the county after they are over the acute hospital period. When a patient is ready to go home the therapist assigned to the case checks at the home to see what is needed, such as hot packs, hot pack machines, wading pools, wheel chairs, hospital beds, or whatever. The therapists begin the Home Care program as soon as the patient arrives. Since only four therapists must care for such a large number of patients the Home Care plan is the only method for sure continuation of the therapy program she explained. The Home Care plan is basically teaching the mothers, fathers or EVERYBODY WATCHES — Little Paul Murillo, 3, severely stricten with polio, nonchalantly reclines in his wading pool as his five brothers and sisters look on as he receives physical therapy treatment from Miss Lois Olmstead, supervisor of physical therapy for left to right, sy. 2; Phyllis of the children rillo. Santa A The therapist assigned to the case checks at the home to see what is needed, such as hot packs, hot pack machines, wading pools, wheel chairs, hospital beds, or whatever. The therapists begin the Home Care program as soon as the patient arrives. Since only four therapists must care for such a large number of patients the Home Care plan is the only method for sure continuation of the therapy program she explained. The Home Care plan is basically teaching the mothers, fathers or relatives how to apply hot packs, how to massage stricken limbs and generally how to be a therapist on the home front. The professional therapists then make periodic returns to the home as often as the particular need may be, some need more close attention than others, Miss Olmsted said. During the final stages of recovery the patient is taken to a private orthopedist or orthopedic clinic and they also return once a month to the Crippled Children's Service Clinic for a check-up. From the time they leave the hospital until complete rehabilitation as nearly as possible—the patients are followed. Those with paralysis are checked to full growth and all others for five years. Physical therapy, Miss Olmsted explains, although old as a healing art, is new as a profession. As a profession, she adds, it was born in the 20th Century. During the last few years, doctors have begun calling for large numbers of specialists trained to give physical therapy—which includes use of heat, light, water, electricity, massage and exercise. In Orange county, the super-intendent said, three of the four therapists are paid directly by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, which gets its operating funds through the March of Dimes drive which runs from Jan. 2 through Jan. 31. Miss Olmsted explains that physical therapy differs from nursing, although it belongs to the same "family," and medicine is the father of them both. Due to the acute shortage of physical therapists, the National Foundation for the Infantile Paralysis in 1945 embarked upon a nationwide physical therapy training program for which more than $2,000,000 has been allocated up to the end of 1945. By the late spring of 1952, more than 1800 scholarships have been awarded under the Foundation's program. The March of Dimes campaign beginning Jan. 2, in the county will provide funds for the therapists who care for the many patients who have been stricken. Stanley Bates, county campaign chairman declared.

Technical Defect Bars 'Freedom of Choice' Ordinance Santa Ana voters will not have opportunity at the April city election to basel on the "freedom of choice" ordinance, which would have allowed hotels and restaurants to refuse service to whom ever they chose. Santa Ana city council has rejected the proposal to place the proposed ordinance on the ballot on technical grounds. City Attorney John Colwell reported to the council that proceedings with respect to the ordinance were defective, and advised further that the ordinance was not proper legislation within the meaning of the initiative and referendum provisions of the state constitution.

The boy's mother, Mrs. Maria Magdalena Flores, 30, waited in a corridor outside the operating room. She had read of the operation Dr. Grant performed more than a year ago on Donny Morton, a Canadian boy, and wrote the surgeon asking his attempt to save her son's life. SA Ordinance To Outlaw Noise Noise of all kinds may soon be outlawed in Santa Ana again, as the city council gave first reading to a new anti-noise ordinance to replace the old one, recently held unconstitutional by City Judge Ronald M. Crookshank. The old ordinance was knocked out because it merely contained a blanket prohibition against loud noise in general, without specifying agencies or implements, or other sources of such noise. That Judge Crookshank held, was not enough. The new ordinance should be specific enough to suit anybody. It lists, as unlawful, the noise from auto horns, radio and TV loud speakers and public address systems, phonographs, stream whistles, motor exhausts, animals and human yelling or shouting, loading or unloading, and just about every other imaginable Imperial Paper Wins Access to Public Records EL CENTRO, Jan. 7 (UP)—police chief of Imperial told superior court today he has opened his office records to public inspection. Officials of the Imperial Press and Morning Post, both published in El Centro, had informed Superio, Judge Luray Mouser, the chief, Elmo Sherman, had used permission for reporters to check the records. On Dec. 24 the judge issued writ ordering the chief to make the records available to the public or show cause why he had done so. The writ was retracted today and the chief told judge his records have been done so since the order was issued. There is no doubt public records should be open to inspection. Judge Mouser declared. Carl Shoos, co-publisher of newspapers involved, said action was taken to defend right of the public to free access to actions of public officials is a significant victory on a snail front in a big war.

Willis Warner Reelected Head Of Supervisors Willis H. Warner of Huntington Beach, representing the Second District, was reelected chairman of the board unanimously when the supervisors held their biennial reorganization Tuesday. Warner has served as chairman for 10 of the last 12 years. The chairman is elected every two years, as new terms of office start under the stagger system of electing supervisors. At the end of his present two-year term in 1955, Warner will be up for reelection to the board, as will Supervisor Heinz Kaiser of Costa Mesa, from the Fifth District, and former Chairman William Smith, Orange, representing the Fourth District. Smith, now president of the State Association of County Supervisors, will have served nearly 30 years on the board then and may not be a candidate again.

No Compliance, No Subdivisions, Supervisors Rule Two large subdivisions proposed for Costa Mesa by the Republic Construction Co. and Diller-Kalsman Co., both of Beverly Hills, must comply with conditions imposed by the county planning commission, or there will be no subdivisions, the county board of supervisors ruled Tuesday afternoon. Both subdividers appealed to the supervisors from planning commission requirements that sewer lines and connections be provided, and, in case of the Diller-Kalsman subdivision, lot sizes should be increased from 6000 square feet to 7200 square feet each. Diller-Kalsman Co., previously had not objected to the sewer requirements, but added that item to their complaint Tuesday. Republic Construction Co., which proposed subdivision of 125 acres into 532 lots on 19th street west of Palencita ave., adjacent to the proposed Newport Beach dump site objected to the requirement of sewer lines and connections, claiming it would cost $240 per lot since the tract is outside of Costa Mesa Sanitary District and a mile from a trunk sewer line. Diller-Kalsman Co. protested both the requirement of a larger lot size and the sewer requirement. But the supervisors were adamant, and on motion of Supervisor Heinz Kaiser of Costa Mesa denied both appeals.
