Birth Control Pills Linked _ With Death

NOTTINGHAM (AP)—An in- quest into the -death of-an-Eng- lish housewife was told that ft micht be linked with the baking of birth control pills.

Coroner Anthony Rothera re- corded a verdict that Mrs. Cyn- thia Leigh,-22, died from throm- bosis. and then said:

“It is important that some publicity be given to this, not 80 much as-a-warning that peo- ple should not take contracep- tive pills, but so they can ap preciate that there is a possi- bility of these- unfortunte con- sequences.”

Pathologist Dr. G. F. M. Hall said “there have. been reports ‘recently: in the medical press of @ possible association between contraceptive pills and throm- bosis

“Because of. this I made in- quiries and found Mrs Leigh was taking these pills . my feeling is that the association is just too much to be a coincl- dence.”

GREAT INTEREST 2 {

The potato show at Dundas has always been a centre of interest and the man who wins the grand | championship is acclaimed for | his skill in selection as well as | production, for skill in selecting the sample counts almost as much in the final analysis, as the productive quality of the var- fety of potatoes and the fertility of the soil in which the spuds are grown.

The extension of buffding ac- commodation has kept pace with the rest of the development at Dundas. It’s-a far cry from the early shélters that-were erected for serving meals, lunches -and selling drinks and ice-cream, to the buildings that are aveilable for the general agricultural fair as it is known today.
