A research study for a potential new treatment for Alzheimer’s disease is looking for qualified people to enroll.

The START (Synaptic Therapy Alzheimer’s Research Trial) Study is testing an investigational treatment to see if it can safely slow memory loss from Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It lasts about two years and you will be asked to make about 24 visits to the study site to see doctors who will closely monitor your health. By participating, you or your loved one could be an important part of finding new treatments for people with AD.

To qualify for the study, you or your loved one must:

Be between 50 and 85 years old.

Have a diagnosis of mild AD dementia, OR a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD, OR memory concerns noticed by another person.

Have a study partner who can come with you to some visits and take part in some testing.

There are more requirements to qualify for the START Study. The screening process includes testing. Someone on the study team can discuss the testing with you.

To learn more about the START Study, visit START-Study.org or call 1-833-START-33. STUDY SITE INFORMATION

Though no one knows the true origin of the first scavenger hunts, which evolved from folk games, Elsa Maxwell has been credited with the creation and popularization of the scavenger hunt in the 1930s. Elsa Maxwell was dubbed “hostess with the mostest” and had an affinity for throwing luxurious and entertaining parties. She often organized scavenger hunts for the guests that involved roaming around town, seeking objects from a list.

THIS MEMORIAL DAY, WE HONOR THE LATE BATAVIAN,

Edward Joseph (Cichowski) York

CAPTAIN EDWARD J YORK OF THE 17TH BOMBARDMENT GROUP CREDIT AIR FORCE HISTORICAL AGENCY

During World War II, Genesee County rallied to do its best and our community supplied many heroes. One courageous pilot received the Distinguished Flying Cross for his efforts in what was considered the “most daring stroke” of World War II.

America needed something to li its spirits a er the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Jimmy Doolittle and others planned a raid on the capital of Japan and trained B-25 Mitchell twin-engine light bombers to take off from a Navy carrier. One member of this raid was from Batavia – Eddie Cichowski. History records this 29-year-old as Captain York, a squadron commander who became Doolittle’s operations officer. Local Daily Newspaper articles document his education and military career. He was known as Cichowski until the Doolittle Raid when he began using the surname of York.

Edward J. Cichowski was born on August 16, 1912 in Batavia, son of Ignatius and Tekla Cichowski. His father was a Polish immigrant who arrived in the United States in 1905. e family lived at 101 Harvester Avenue and Eddy graduated from the Batavia High School at the age of fi een in June 1928. He was remembered as an excellent student especially gi ed in mathematics. A er completing high school, he joined the Army and later attended the United States Military Academy at West Point. roughout his

DOOLITTLE RAID CREW 8 ON THE DECK OF HORNET

CAPT EDWARD J YORK AND COPILOT

e April 18, 1942 raid was the first attack against the Japanese homeland in World War II and it did much to raise American morale. Accounts of Doolittle’s raid recall that the aircra carrier, Hornet, was spotted by a Japanese fishing boat, which caused the planes to take off prematurely. e sixteen B-25 Mitchell bombers dropped incendiary and high explosive bombs on oil refineries, steelworks, factories, and electrical power plants.

e raiders were able to fly over Japan but a er 13 hours alo and out of fuel over China, eleven of the pilots told their crews to abandon the plans. Most of the crews parachuted without injury. One raider was killed in a hard landing, one crew was captured and the pilot and engineer were executed. Four planes crash-landed and two crewmen died in one of the crashes.

LT ROBERT G EMMENS IN FRONT ROW military career, he served his country well.

Captain York was the pilot for the 16th aircra and was able to land it safely near Vladivostok in the Soviet Union. York and his four crew members were taken prisoners because the Russians had not yet declared war on Japan. Russia was engaged in a war with Germany in the west and could not afford to have a battle with Japan in the east. York and his crew were interned for 14 months until they escaped into Persia (now Iran).

Aboard the Hornet on that fateful day was another Batavian, John H. Richter, Aviation Machinist Mate, First Class. He lived at 7 Franklin Street and like all of his fellow shipmates, he kept the closely-guarded secret of the Doolittle Raid.

e Hornet was lost in the battle of Santa Cruz on October 26, 1942 during another successful mission against the Japanese. As the Hornet sank, Richter was rescued by a destroyer and later returned home to Batavia to visit his family. One can only speculate on the chance meeting of 21-year-old Richter with York aboard the Hornet and the exchange of Batavia news they might have shared.

At the age of 72, a retired Air Force Colonel, York died at his home in San Antonio, Texas, a er a heart attack on August 31, 1984. In honor of the 60th Anniversary of the Doolittle Raid and York’s heroic involvement, the “History of Flight” Air Show from Geneseo flew B-25 Mitchell Bombers over the Genesee County Bicentennial Parade on July 13th. All who attended the parade witnessed history as these planes graced the sky and took a moment to pay tribute to the brave Genesee County man who flew in a plane just like the ones they saw in the famous air raid of World War II.

Not Everyone Who Has Artery Blockages Requires Surgery

Q. A.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I have HIV and pulmonary hypertension. I was part of a research study, and a scan found blockages of about 50% in my carotid arteries. I’ve never had any symptoms or a stroke. Do I need to have surgery? -- V.P.

ANSWER: In general, screening for blockages in the carotid arteries that provide blood flow to the brain is not recommended, but occasionally, I do see people who get the diagnosis made as part of a study or as a result of a diagnostic test that was performed for some other reason. Screening means that there are no present symptoms, and the management of asymptomatic blockages is different from symptomatic ones. Not everybody with blockages needs surgical intervention. Guidelines recommend against surgery in people with no symptoms who have less than 70% stenosis. Only when the blockage is greater than 70% is surgery considered.

Medical treatment is effective at reducing the risk of a stroke and includes a high dose of a potent statin agent, aspirin, the careful control of high blood pressure and diabetes (if appropriate), quitting smoking, a healthy diet (such as Mediterraneanstyle), regular exercise, and weight reduction in some people.

HIV itself increases the risk of stroke by about 40% compared to people without HIV, so it is appropriate to be more aggressive at reducing risk factors.This is similar to what we see in people with chronic inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, who have a higher heart disease and stroke risk than what would be expected based on their other risk factors.

Your HIV provider may wish to consult an expert in cardiovascular disease prevention to help you reduce your stroke risk, although many HIV experts are also skilled primary care doctors themselves. Keeping HIV under control (ideally with no detectable virus) may help reduce inflammation and consequently bring down the additional risk of heart attack and stroke associated with HIV.

DEAR DR. ROACH: My spouse is frustrated by a nagging case of plantar fasciitis. It’s been continuing for five or six months now. No amount of stretching, icing or resting seems to help. They are considering using a plantar fasciitis sock device that holds the foot in a specific position to provide relief. I am wondering if you could provide any other suggestions on how to reduce or eliminate this problem. -- M.R.

ANSWER: Plantar fasciitis is among the most common causes of foot pain, with nearly 1% of people complaining of plantar fasciitis pain during the previous month. Inflammation and pain most commonly occur at the bottom of the foot, just in front of the heel. The pain is often worst during the first step in the morning.

Rest and cushioned shoes or heel pads are helpful for most people. I am cautious about recommending stretching, especially when the pain is severe, as overdoing stretching can make things worse.Still,most people find stretching to be of benefit.

When symptoms do not get resolved with conservative management, I refer patients to a podiatrist. Some people just take a long time to heal, but 80% are better within a year. When conservative measures have failed to bring relief, your spouse’s podiatrist might consider an injection of a steroid.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2025 King Features Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

Act of Kindness

Recently, while dining at T’s Restaurant in Webster for breakfast, I had to help my husband sit down in the booth, and cut his pancakes and bacon for him. He has some disabilities. When we finished, the waitress came by and said that we were all set regarding the bill. I looked at her, puzzled, and she told us that another patron had noticed how I had cared for my husband, and paid our bill! We were so taken aback by that gesture. Our deepest gratitude and thanks to that kind soul. May God bless you!

Carwash

Please don’t pull in close behind the automatic car washes. I can tell you when you prepaid every month and you have to go through and trigger it to your windshield tag, it never works the first time. I have to back up and try it again. With somebody so close behind me I can’t back up and I’m stuck there. In other words, it never works the first time; you have to back up and try it again every single time. Please give us space.

Auction Never Paid for My Goods

An auctioneer came to my home and told me he could sell all the things I had to sell, giving me 75% of the money he received and he’d keep only 25% for himself. I said good. He seemed like a decent man. October 2024, he loaded a large trailer with all my stuff, including a bedroom with all the furniture. They were in my garage about four hours taking everything they could. To this day, I haven’t gotten anything from him. I do have pictures of all the stuff they took. I don’t know what to do at this time. Do not trust anyone who comes to your house telling you they want to auction off your goods as they did mine. Be aware and beware.

Should indoor cats wear flea collars?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: At my cat’s last veterinary visit, it was recommended that she wear a flea collar or get a monthly flea treatment. “Belle” is a completely indoor cat and has never had fleas. Why do I need to prevent her from getting them? -- Carla G., Gulf Shores, Alabama

DEAR CARLA: While it seems totally reasonable to not treat Belle for fleas, there is always a risk of getting them. This is the same logic behind routine vaccinations -- it’s unlikely that an indoor cat will be exposed to rabies, but there is always a chance.

I’ll give you a personal example. Last fall, I took care of a friend’s dog for a few weeks while they were away dealing with a family emergency. On the first day, I noticed that “Kerry” was chewing on his tail and his hair was almost gone at the base of his tail. I knew right away that he had fleas, and a visual check confirmed it. All of my pets are treated for fleas, even though my cat stays indoors. With my friend’s permission, I treated Kerry with a topical flea treatment and kept him separated from the other pets for a few days until no live fleas could be found in his fur. I also monitored all my pets for fleas during his visit.

I hadn’t planned on Kerry arriving with fleas, but his owner had forgotten to give him his monthly flea treatment for a couple of months. This unplanned situation could have been a real problem for me and my pets.

There’s an old saying that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” and that is certainly the case with fleas, which can be hard to eliminate from your home once they get a foothold. There are many options today -- not just collars -- to prevent fleas from getting on your cat. Talk to your vet about the treatment they recommend for Belle.

HOW TO HOST A MEMORABLE MEMORIAL DAY BBQ

Create a red, white and blue burger: No barbecue is complete without delicious burgers cooking over an open flame. Those burgers can give an extra nod to the Stars and Stripes by showcasing the nation’s well-recognized colors. Place your grilled burger patty on your bun of choice. Top it with raw or grilled tomato slices (red), a slather of mayonnaise or a more dressed up aioli (white), and some blue cheese crumbles (blue). Carry the color theme over into a side salad as well, with your favorite greens topped with beets, blueberries and chunks of feta cheese.

Retirement: Now at?

Some of us are new to retirement and the questions quickly become: Now what? What do I do with my days? Do I continue to set the alarm for the same time in the mornings?

If you planned in detail for your retirement and have a long list of things you intend to do, you know where to begin.

But the questions about what to do with our retired days can be poignant for those who perhaps didn’t have a choice about retirement. Maybe there were health considerations. Maybe there were expectations of retirement upon reaching a certain age in a certain career. But for whatever reason, here’s retirement, ready or not. Now what?

Start with a piece of paper and a pen. Make a list, the longer the better, of every interest you have. Ideally, somewhere on that list are the makings of worthwhile activities that are physical, social and mental.

Here are some random possibilities: explore photography, teach swimming at the YMCA, write a novel, knit or crochet hats and mittens for the local Santa fund next winter, create a family scrapbook with genealogy information and photos for the next generation, play pickleball at the rec center, become a Citizen Scientist (see CitizenScience.gov), join a walking group, take a pottery class with a grandchild.

Then there are the all-important brain-stretcher activities: learn to play piano or guitar (or brush up on old skills), take a college course, play chess online, take a computer class to upgrade your skills, learn a language online (see Duolingo.com), read a book a week or start a book club.

My personal list includes dogs at the animal shelter.There are lots of dogs who need to be taken on adventure walking afternoons to pick up their spirits. I can do that a few times a week.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT MEMORIAL DAY

Confederate soldiers were honored, too. Confederate losses during the Civil War outnumbered Union losses, and those losses were not forgotten by southerners who survived the war.History.com notes that,in 1866, the Georgia-based Ladies Memorial Association, one of many similar organizations to arise in the aftermath of the war, pushed for a day to honor fallen Confederate soldiers.In fact,these efforts are believed to have influenced General John A.Logan.In 1868,General Logan, a Civil War veteran who was then serving as commander-in-chief of a group of Union veterans, ordered the decoration of Union graves with flowers on May 30.The day would ultimately be known as “Memorial Day.”
