Pounds of Thrust
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. GD — An
advanced Saturn rocket, design
ed to carry men on round trips
to the Moon, will stand more

The first stage of the C-5 will
have five engines with a total
thrust of 7.5 million pounds. The
second stage also will have five
engines, generating one million
pounds of thrust. The third stage,
composed of one engine, will have
200,000 pounds of thrust.
The C-5 is being developed by

March of Dimes Mothers Hold Key
In Fight Against Crippling Disease
Some two million March

symbolic Golden Key of
Hope, will appear on Amer

end of January asking sup

and polio.
Why do these women brave

Mrs. Phyllis Sublett of Evans

Since then 1 have learned that
these malformations, and hun

afflict one out of every 18

each year.
“These children need help,
their parents need to know
where to find the specialists
who can give prompt and effec

that the March of Dimes sup
ports work in clinics to im
prove treatment, in laborato

building a network of diag

to make new knowledge avail
able to everyone, not just those
fortunate enough to live close
to great medical institutions.
‘The March of Dimes already
supports nearly 50 centers
throughout the country, and
many more are being planned.
“That’s why I’m in the Moth

this help and hope exists. I

it can be prevented or cured.

Marching Mothers across the
nation have similar reasons.

Strange Medical Case
Ends in Death for Dentist
CLEVELAND, Ohio UR — The
expected end came Friday night in
the strange medical case of Dr.
Jerome Streem, 37.
The dentist, whose heart and
breathing stopped twice within
24 hours and once resulted in a
trip to a funeral home, died at
Mount Sinai Hospital.
After a thorough check, hospital
authorities reported the death—
nearly 128 hours after a doctor
mistakenly had declared the pa
tient dead at his home in subur
ban Cleveland Heights.
Dr. Streem, who gave up his
dental practice more than 10
years ago when felled by mul
tiple sclerosis, never regained
consciousness. He was in a coma
in the latter stages.
Ironically, Dr. Streem’s father,
Harry, 72, was discharged from
the same hospital Friday after
more than a week’s stay for a
heart ailment. The father, aware
his son was in critical condition,
was given the news of his death.
But relatives kept him shielded
from the bizarre circumstances,
fearing it might have an adverse
affect on his condition.
Funeral services were set for
[ Sunday at the Miller Memorial
Funeral Chapel. It was at that
mortuary that the strange turn of
events occurred last Sunday.
Seventy-five minutes after a
doctor had checked Dr. Streem’s
respiration, heartbeat and pulse, a
funeral attendant was wheeling
the stretcher into the preparation
room. He was startled to see the
form breathing.
Two brothers, Leon and Larry
Miller, administered oxygen, used
closed heart massage, and sped
Dr. Streem in an ambulance to
the hospital.
The following day Dr. Streem’s
breathing and heart stopped again
—but only “for a minute or two,”
according to doctors. External
heart massage, oxygen and an in
cision of the windpipe did the
job. Later that day the patient
was breathing without aid.
But doctors were frank in say
ing chances were “very slim” for
recovery.
