Show V Thursday, November 1 8, 1 Ben Lomond Beacon 976 Page 3 Doctor proves a whiz at mending bones by Glen W. Perrins, the is there a doctor in the house? ... This may be the first call in an emergency. The second call years ago in the Ogden Old-Tim- area world sports was, Where's Zeke? Or if it was a bad accident that needed someone who was a whiz at fixing broken bones or solving real problems, the call was, .Wed better find Zeke. Of course, the man they wanted was Dr. Ezekiel Ricker Dumke, a native of Wisconsin and a former Colorado athlete and football star at the Denver University who came to Ogden shortly after the turn of the century. He was a familiar figure at most sports events and was on hand usually when a football player needed help after hard tackh or when a baseball player with a hot beaned was pitch or a wild throw. Dr. Dumke was a great friend of newspaper men like the late A1 Warden, dean of Intermountain sports writers who used to get him tickets for state and national sports events and for the World baseball Series games. Before the davs of television, ran the newspapers giant World Series Playograph, acting out the games from the news center on the second floor of the Kiesel building for the crowds on 24th Street below. One day the wind blew part of the Playograph sign down and hit a sports fan below on A1 play-by-pla- y the head. Luckily, office, well see if we can do something about your leg. Jimmy sold his papers faster that day than he ever had done before after he learned that the man who talked to him was Dr. Dumke, the former Chief of at Camp Orthopedics Houston, Texas. Jimmy Dr. remembered reading in newspapers how this skilled surgeon had helped so many wounded American soldiers. Jimmy peddled his red wagon to the Eccles Building elevator and soon was in Dr. Dumkes office. Dr. Dumke examined the newsboys leg whicn years earlier had oeen badly burned and crippled. We might be able to mend have it as good as new hope, he told Jimmy. WeU go to the Dee Hospital and operate, and Ill bet well have you walking around with your papers without your red wagon. And thats just the way it turned out for Jimmy. After two operations and some phsyco theraphy, Dr. Dumke had little Jimmy walking around selling his papers on the street corner again, all of this was entirely without cost. Jimmy is now a successful businessman in Los Angeles. For many years he took time Dumke was on hand, said A1 Warden later, and Zeke took such good care of the man he saved us from a big lawsuit. Crippled Little newsboy gets a helpful customer Paper, mister. Read all about it, cried a crippled little newsboy in a red wagon one morning in front of the Eccles Building in Ogden. It was Jimmy, a happy, cheerful fellow despite his crippled leg, greeting his early-hou- r customers with his usual friendly smile. Jimmy was a familiar figure on the 24th Street of corner Washington Avenue, and many readers tipped him an extra nickel or two for their papers. On this day, his new customer patted him on the head and then looked at his crippled leg., You know, young man, he said, one of these days if voull come upstairs to my lucky-for-Jimm- y every month or so to phone Dr. Dumke and ask how he was doing and to thank him for fixing his crippled leg. Braves Snowdrifts Zeke made house calls to see sick patients in those days, even if he had to brave snowstorms to visit patients who were as far away as Idaho. For example, one cold winter day an elderly woman in Malad suffered a severe gallstone attack, so serious that her family feared that she would die unless Dr. Dumke could call to help. When Dr. Dumke was ill with a heart attack, his patients sent him so many flowers that his room was a veritable flower garden of roses and carnations. Accidentally he learned that one of the hospital nurses was going to get married the next day. Say, why dont you get marped here, he told her. Ill line up all these flowers for your wedding, and well make it a colorful ceremony. The nurse bought the idea, and Zeke headed the in a reception committee wheelchair, not only giving the couple his best wishes, but a wedding and honeymoon trip besides. The delighted couple was married in his room at the St. Benedicts Hospital. Cancels medical bills When the Great Depression hit United States, collecting doctor bills was so slow that many patients paid their medical bills with eggs, chickens and produce. Many had a difficult time even surviving without the added worry about payments on doctor bills. Dr. Dumkes office girls were surprised one day when Zeke asked them to show him the stack of bills they had on hand. That day the highway department reported the snow had drifted so high in the Idaho area that it would be impossible for Dr. Dumke to make the trip. However, Zeke knew some of the road crew and persuaded them to help. He knew he could help the woman if he could get through and operate on her. Taking courage the road the way crew especially for Dr. Dumke. As they cut through the huge snow drifts in the road, he followed closely behind them in his car. Working together as a team, on that cold, wintry day, they made the impossible house call, and saved the patient's life.

Johnny is now a millionaire in Amarillo, Texas, and often thanks Zeke for it. Fisherman on the Hebgen Dr. Dumke was a man who loved to fish the Madison and Snake rivers in Idaho. His Cabin on the Hebgen was enjoyed by his family and friends through the years. Many of the doctors who attended the annual meetings of the Ogden Surgical Society (which he helped organize in 1946), would join Zeke after meetings at Cabin on the Hebgen. Not only did Dr. Dumke enjoy fishing, but he taught his wife and family to fish and to enjoy the sport.

Teaches how to save money Another young Ogden newsboy who was a real hustler at selling papers, yet who was nearly always broke found a valuable friend in Dr. Dumke. One day, Zeke, who was interested in him and his as a youthful ability salesman, asked him: What do you do with all your money, Johnny? I give it all to my father, he replied. Dr. Dumke said, Johnny, you come with me. Ill take you to my friend in the bank, and hell tell you what to do with your money. Then Zeke took the little newsboy to see a banker-sport- s fan, William Loos at the First Security bank and handed him some money. Here, Bill, we want to start a savings account in he said.
