It's still hard for me to believe that not one person in all of Lakeland Park is in­ terested in doing the Lakeland Park News. It is not a hard job. The only reason I don't want to do it anymore is that I have a lot of other interests which take up a lot of my time. Also, I think the column could use a fresh ap­ proach right now. I hope to receive some calls. Spring Grove Eva Freund 675-2135 Plan Father- Son Breakfast At Parish Hall The annual Father-Son breakfast will be served by the Christian Mothers Society in St. Peter's parish hall following the 9 a.m. Mass on Sunday, March 25.

MISHAPS AND ACCIDENTS Sorry to hear that Mrs. Anna Ron's experiences coincide with,those of our usual city Fire Departments. For thousands of lives are snuffed out and millions of dollars in property, plus forests, are ruined each year. The PTA in all 50 states are now campaigning against this terrible foe of mankind. Free yourself from this mon­ ster by use of the booklet below. By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE L-526: Ron G., aged 35, is a member of a city Fire Department. "Dr. Crane," he began, "our station has made 3 runs this week to homes where fires were started by cigarette smokers. "In the first case, a woman was smoking in bed and fell asleep. Her lighted cigarette dropped from her fingers and started the blaze. "Before we could get to her, she was dead from smoke inhalation. "The second alarm came from a rooming house where a college student was smoking while seated in an upholstered chair. "He dozed off and his cigarette ignited the chair. "Apparently, he was so dazed by the smoke and fumes that he lost his sense of direction. "For we found him seated on the floor of his clothes closet, with the door shut. He must have thought he was going out to the stairway. He was also dead. "The third case was an elderly man who was lying on a davenport, smoking and watching TV. He also must have fallen asleep and thus dropped his cigarette. He was so badly burned that he later died in the hospital. "In all these cases, severe Agger broke her arm and wrist, the result of a fall. Also that Bill Leonhardt broke some ribs due to a slip on the ice. However Bill is up and about and healing fine. HOSPITALIZED Walter Kowalski is in St. Therese's hospital, Waukegan. He is a heart patient and will undergo surgery. CLUB Mrs. Emma Kattner en­ tertained members of her club on Sunday afternoon of last week. Cards were played and prizes went to Eva Freund, Jean Lay and Mame Hoffman. The club will meet in April at the home of Agnes May. CANCER CRUSADE Burton Twp. Chairman Eva Freund and Crusaders Orian Brown, Emma Kattner, Agnes May and Mae May attended the kick-off dinner Monday night. Door to door crusading will begin in April. All contributions will be appreciated. damage was done to the homes before we could put out the fires. "We find that cigarette smokers cause the majority of our fires." FIRE DAMAGE Literally billions of dollars worth of fire damage to our dwindling forests, plus fac­ tories. homes and schools, are thus due to carelessness by smokers. When I was in Los Angeles for a recent lecture, I happened to overhear a radio announcer mention that "over 400 fires have been caused this month in our area by smokers." Even if cigarettes offered no health hazards to mankind, their terrific property damage by fires would indict them. Teen-agers will thoughtlessly flip a lighted cigarette butt out the window of their moving automobile, just as they toss out empty beer cans. The beer cans pollute the beauty of those scenic high­ ways but usually do no further damage. But those cigarette butts start forest-fires and ignite ripe grain fields. They also ignite dry grass which often spreads to valuable home and faetory sites Last fall I saAv an 80-acre field of ripe corn that would probably have yielded 100 bushels per acre, but it was charred by a grass fire that some careless smoker had started by tossing his cigarette butt out the car window. The PTA organizations in all 50 states have launched a vigorous campaign to 'educate school children against the unhealthful habit of smoking. Senior Citizens May Make Claims For Tax Refunds Senior Citizens who paid Illinois income taxes on pen­ sions in 1969 and 1970 may be eligible for a refund, reports State Rep. Cal Skinner, Jr. (R- Crystal Lake). Several months ago, the Illinois Supreme court ruled that the state cannot impose income taxes on pensions, profit sharing proceeds, stock bonus plans, bond retirement plans, other employee benefit programs or on capital gains resulting from the sale or rental of farm property. About 200,000 Illinois residents are estimated to be eligible for refunds averaging $50 to $75. A deadline for applying for the refund has been set for April 15 by the Department of Revenue. Claim forms can be obtained from the depart­ ment's office at 160 N. LaSalle in Chicago.

Another 100,000 never did succumb to the TV stress on tobacco, so that means about 60 percent of all our physicians are now non-smokers. Among dental surgeons, too, 65 percent are now non- smokers. An A.D.A. announcement says one-third of all dental surgeons never did take up this nuisance habit. And of the two-thirds who did smoke, half of that group have quit, so 2 out of every 3 dental surgeons are now free from tobacco addiction. Thirty years ago I started hammering away against the tobacco habit, both in this column and in my monthly essay for a dental journal. It looked for years as if I were a lone voice in the wilderness, but now the smokers are PAGE 5-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, MARCH 23, 1973 decidedly in the minority, for about 70 percent of all Americans do not smoke at alL So send for mv booklet "How to stop the Tobacco and Liquor Habits/' enclosing a long stamped, return envelope, plus 20 cents.
