H@eM Program (Continued from Page 1) John Sterling, Crystal Lake, treasurer of the six-year-old organization, called 1965 a banner year in many respects. He said it was the most successful in terms of number of people served, in being able to enlarge the staff to serve the growing demand for psychiatric help, and in ability to expand, th£ program of service. » In addition, new quarters in offices .rented from the McHenry. hospital will be ready this spring, enabling expansion of such services as group psychotherapy. Sterling , reported how the State of Illinois assists with a percentage of the Mental Health center's budget. Each year the administrator files a budget and the state gives a portion of that total providing the Mental Health center first raises a fixed amount. Sterling said the referendum to be Voted on fn the fall is being proposed as a way of having a comparatively small tax approved by citizens to help finance the efforts in mental health care. He emphasized that the Mental Health center would be only one possible beneficiary of such * a tax and that the board should not figure any financial assistance in this regard in its upcoming budget. Aid to retarded children and treatment in other areas are among mental health problems the new program could benefit. Virgil Pollock, retiring president, praised the county board of supervisors for its wisdom in approving the referendum for /Citizen consideration this November. "One aceomplishmeWt is that the board is more a\Mare of the mental health problem and wants to work toward solutions."

Mrs. Barany, who will be 70 on March 28, first began to have severe heart trouble last May. Prior to that, she had had palpitations from time to time, but being an active and energetic woman, she had ignored these. Then, on May li), while working in her garden, she attempted to pick up a twenty-five pound bag of fertilizer. She lost her balance and fell over backwards. "I didn't feel so well after that," she said. And from then on, her condition progressively worsened. "I had trouble breathing and soon I was gasping for air." Mrs. Barany was admitted to McHenry hospital, where her condition was diagnosed as congestive heart failure due to mitral insufficiency. The mitral valve which regulates the flow of oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart was not c l o s e d p r o p e r l y , c a u s i n g a back flow of blood into the heart. Mrs. Barany now had extreme shortness of breath, could talk for only a few minutes without becoming breathless, and had increasing palpitations. She needed oxygen to breathe each night. It was then that Mrs. Barany's physician arranged for a consultation with a member of Mount Sinai's" full time medical staff. Ten days later, on Nov. 19, Mrs. Barany was transferred to Mount Sinai Hospital Medical center. Several weeks of medical treatment followed and then on Dec. 21 open heart surgery was performed. The operation was done using a cardio-pulmonary by-pass in which the function of Mrs. BararW's Jieart and lungs was taken over by the heart-lung machine. The defective mitral valve was removed and the artificial valve was sewn into place.
