PCB tests show 4 rivers within limits MILWAUKEE (AP) None of the fish tested in an independent investigation for toxic PCBs in four southeastern Wisconsin rivers contained the chemicals, in excess of the safety limit recommended by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The tests for PCBs polychlorinated biphenyl were made in the Manitowoc, Milwaukee, southern Fox and Rock rivers. The Fox and Rock flow into Illinois. A Milwaukee newspaper, saying it commissioned the tests, reported that all of the samples were within the limit of five parts per million as set by the FDA and the state for fish sold commercially.

PCBs have been used since the 1920s in paints, electrical equipment, hydraulic fluids, duplicating papers and for other industrial purposes. Production stopped in 1970 when the chemicals' toxic threat to the environment was made public. Canada now has a limit of two parts per million for commercial fish consumed by humans. High levels of PCBs were discovered earlier this year in the Sheboygan River, which flows into Lake Michigan. The newspaper said its tests were made in five areas which the Natural Resources Department has not yet investigated.

The five sites and the results are: The Rock River north of Beloit. 1.98 parts per million. The Manitowoc River 15 miles upstream from Lake Michigan. 3.4 ppm. The Milwaukee River in Fredonia, .89 ppm.

The Fox River south of Waukesha. 4.53 ppm. and the Fox near Wilmot, .77 ppm. Tuesday, Sept. 12, 1978 The Post-Crescent, Appleton-Neenah-Menasha, Wis.

A-11 How Britons talk pinpoints homes (c) New York Times news service LONDON If an Englishman says he has a skullache, he is describing more about himself than a pain in his head. He is also announcing, perhaps unwittingly, that he is from East Anglia. And if the same man adds that he is going home to mash a pot of tea, he is pinning down his origins even further western Norfolk, somewhere around the village of Grimston. But a mere 16 miles away, at Great Snoring, they would make fun of that kind of talk. People there headaches, not skullaches.

Furthermore, they don't mash their tea at Great Snoring; they, draw it. A book published here by Croom Helm Ltd. puts the traditional speech patterns of the English people on the map. Called Linguistic Atlas of England," it shows the older people use words in every corner of this stunningly diverse little country. The book, which is scholarly, heavy reading, is expected to be a gold mine for social historians and students of language history.

Scholars who have tried to trace the speech patterns of English colonists New Englanders, for example have long been stymied by the lack of just such an atlas in the mother country. Any gifted amateur can tell where a Englishman is from by his pronunciation. The atlas goes further. It maps vocabulary, syntax and grammar, as well as pronunciation. It also traces the origins of words to Old and Middle English.

Norse, French, etc. The book is the culmination of more than 30 years of work. It was compiled by group of scholars engaged in the English Dialect Survey, a project begun in 1947 by Prof. Harold Orton. After he died in 1975.

the work was finished by scholars at Leeds University. The atlas stops at the borders of Scot- Pre-surgery program on second opinions is a flop (c) New York Times news service WASHINGTON In an effort to reduce the thousands of lives lost and billions dollars wasted each year be cause unnecessary surgery, a growof ing number of medical insurance plans are both encouraging and paying for the costs of having a second opinion on the need for major operations. Yet this seemingly obvious self-pro tection mechanism has been a flop. with only about of beneficiaries taking, Illinois, advantage of of the 20,000 subscribers to Blue Cross- Blue Shield who underwent surgery recently, only 14 had asked for second opinions before the operation although it would have cost them nothing. Similarly, of 4,000 persons in New Hampshire and Vermont who underwent surgery during a one- month trial run of the second opinion benefit, only one person asked to be examined by another specialist.

The value of the second opinion has been demonstrated through pilot ects in New and Detroit underwritten by federal funds in which it was found that the second opinions did not confirm the initial recommendations for surgery in out of every four cases. Now the Depatment of Health. Education and Welfare, which backed the projects, is extending them nationwide with a telephone hot-line campaign to publicize both the value and availability of second opinions. Nationally, nine million Blue CrossBlue Shield subscribers are entitled to second opinions in fact, the health insurer will even pay for a third opinion if necessary and the number will be over 10 million in a few months. Other health insurers also offer the benefit.

The hot line, 800-325-6400, will pro vide information about the benefits of second opinions and where they may be obtained. expanded use of second opinions IS of benefit to all Americans, not just those who may face surgery and its consequences." said Joseph A. Califano secretary of HEW. He pointed out that millions of dollars in tax funds would be saved if second opinions de terred surgery for persons covered by Medicare and Medicaid. A congressional investigating com- land and Wales.

Even without those Celtic contributions, it records astonishing variations in speech. The field workers interviewed older people in 313 places, mainly farming villages with stable populations. They interviewed city people in four places: Leeds, York, Sheffield and the London borough of Hackney. For the interviews, Orton and another language scholar, Eugen Dieth, devised a questionnaire with more than 1,300 questions. For example, the interviewers asked each person what he or she called a pea-pod, as taught by their forebears.

They got eight different answers across the country, from on the Scottish border to "shuck" on the south coast. The word for lavatory is also different in every region. In Norfolk it is "petty" (apparently the French petit) but just to the south in Suffolk it is "privy." The northerners call it the "nessy," from "necessary." The field survey was carried out be tween 1950 and 1961. Orton surmised that the 1950s offered the last chance to study the old rural speech patterns. The shifted their residences considerably during World War II.

The mobility continued after the war and was accentuated by television and the growth of other forms of communication. The atlas includes four sets of maps 473 in all recording vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar and syntax. Your Social Security To get card, you must prove age, identity, citizenship Everyone who applies for a Social Security number must provide evidence of age, identity and U.S. citizenship or residency status, Leonard G. Anderson, Social Security district manager in Appleton said recently.

This is so, regardless of the person's age or place of birth. In addition. applicants must come into the So cial Security office when applying. according to Anderson. The idea behind these procedures IS to protect a person's Social Security record, to prevent anyone from misusing or abusing another person's Social Security number and to assure that the record is complete and accurate.

A person who needs a duplicate Social Security card to replace one lost or to show a new name must present evidence of his or her identity before the new card can be issued. In addition, the person's application will be checked against Social Security records before the new card is issued. Anderson said that people should allow plenty of time to get a new Social Security number or duplicate card. It takes about six weeks to issue the number and deliver the card after all required evidence has been submitted. The best evidence of a person's age and U.S.

citizenship IS a birth certificate. This should be submitted whenever possible. If this is not available. other documentary evidence can be used. Evidence of identity should include documents which show the person's picture, signature, date of birth or age.

or other identifying information. People not born in the U.S. should submit evidence of their U.S. citizenship or their immigration documents showing they are lawfully admitted to the U.S. The Appleton Social Security office is located at 720 W.

Appleton 54912. mittee concluded last year that In 1976 unnecessary surgery accounted for 2.4 million needless operations in which 12.000 died as a result of surgery that cost $4 billion. The drive for second opinions has been supported by many health groups such as the American Society for Internal Medicine.

relatively low use of second opinions by persons facing surgery, the benefit is rapidly increasing in availability. Two years ago, only nine Blue Cross-Blue Shield plans offered the benefit. The number now IS 27. The second opinion concept was given a big boost by a New York State law enacted two years, ago directing health insurers the benefit available to subscribers at no extra cost. Although subscribers are under no obligation to abide by the opinions of the consultants.

their operations will be paid for even if they are performed against the advice of the consultants. To assure impartiality, none of the consultants are allowed to perform surgery if it is not done. Walter J. McNerney. president of Blue Cross- Blue Shield, said that while savings of from $750 to $1,500 in hospital costs alone would be saved by each operation not performed.

the amounts of money actually being saved are not known. conclusions on the amount of unnecessary surgery and the effectiveness of presurgical consultation pro will have to await further he said.
