J. Rand foundation, Cleveland. The mattress, constructed of Vel-oa Firestone plastic film; consists of a series of air cells one and inches in diameter running its width transversely. Alternate cells are connected to a manifold which forms the edge of the mattress. The two systems of interspersed cells are alternately deflated and inflated at short intervals by a small electrically driven pump. This action produces a massaging effect on the patient's body. Bedsores, which result from the death of tissues due to inadequate nutrition from impaired circulation, have long been a worry to physicians. In the past the only possible relief came from the manual turning of the patients, so as to relieve body pressure points on the mattress. With the shortage of nurses in many cases preventing proper attention to this detail, a mechanical solution to the problem which is plaguing hospitals all over the nation was sought. Clinical tests have been made with the mattress since July, 1947, with very satisfactory results. Numerous patients, whose condition predisposed them to bedsores, have been placed on the mattress. Some were suffering from paraplegia,' others had traumatic "spinal lesions, others were recovering from fractures. Some could not be turned manually because of the traction employed in the treatment of their . fractures. In the group placed on the alternating pressure mattress no additional precautions were taken to prevent bedsores and none developed. Many patients with already developed bedsores have been placed on the mattress and their sores have healed well. In addition to serving as an aid in the prevention and treatment of bedsores, the mattress reduces considerably the amount of nursing care required in these cases. one-quart- Reflex Action at Movie Touches off Old Pistol - NEW YORK. Reflex action touched off by the exciting climax of a movie thriller resulted here in the accidental shooting of Edward Ryan, 10 years old, by his playmate, Martin DeAngelis, 9. The shot, from an antique revolver, echoed through the Superior Theatre, Third Avenue, just south of 31st Street, at 2:40 p.m. It halted the show. About 200 persons, mostly youngsters, were in the audience. The manager, John Hofeditz, hurried to the children's section, and assured the wildly babbling youngsters that there was no danger. From the fourth row he took the wounded boy and his frightened companion and drove them in his automobile to Bellevue hospital. The show resumed. Edward was rushed to an operating room. There was a gash on his left cheek and the lobe of his ear was singed. Seven 'stitches were taken in the cheek and then radio patrolmen took the Injured boy to bis home at 211 East 33rd. street. ?
