...name has practically become synonymous with fighting. Last week Pabst reluctantly sponsored one more fight-the first proxy fight in its 94-year history. The ring was a igth-floor hall in Chicago's Merchandise Mart. In one corner was short, pudgy Pabst President and Chairman Harris Perlstein, wearing grey suit, tan shoes and grey tie. In the other, the challengers: Robert and David Pabst, the grandsons of the Pabst founder, Fred Pabst, and Otto and Carl Spaeth, son and grandson respectively of the founder of Premier Malt, which bought out Pabst...
...Pabst-Spaeth group blamed Perlstein for the fact that the company has dropped from No. 1 in 1949 to eighth among U.S. brewers, last month reported a loss for 1957 of $2,871,200. The stock has dropped from 32 to 4. Fearing for their 25% share of the stock, the Pabst brothers enlisted the aid of the Spaeths to unseat Perlstein as president at the annual meeting...
Easy Victory. When the bell rang last week, Perlstein swarmed all over the opposition, won an easy knockout. His slate of directors polled 56% of the votes cast. After the count, the vanquished did not even get the chance to speak; when David Pabst tried to make a statement for the record, Perlstein cut him off-in the interest, he explained, of a brief meeting...
...palsy, doctors need to know the precise cause of each type of case. One school of medical opinion has held that birth injury (usually from high forceps) is the commonest cause; also, that the nature of symptoms depends on just which part of the brain was damaged. Dr. Perlstein long ago became convinced that these were oversimplifications, set out to pinpoint cause and effect in the only way possible: study the living patients in detail, keeping a minute record of symptoms, then examine their brains after death to see which symptoms go with what type of brain damage. Parents...
Tentative Conclusions. From the specimens examined in Chicago and similar registries in Washington and Los Angeles, Dr. Perlstein has already drawn correlations that will require revision of some long-held ideas. Forceps deliveries, he believes, account for less than 3% of cerebral palsy, although a total of 60% of all cases can be traced to some kind of damage at birth-notably brain hemorrhage and contusions during a difficult delivery, and oxygen starvation (which in its turn may have a multiplicity of causes). About 30% of cerebral palsy is caused, Dr. Perlstein believes, by the mother's illnesses during...
