Pumping bot examined. Students at Georgetown University Hospital gather around Chester Antos, another student, while they examine a newly devised Emerson suction pressure apparatus used to stimulate circulation in legs and feet when certain diseases threaten to neccessitate amputations. The "boot", invented by Dr. Louis A. Hermann of Cincinnati, induces circulation by alternately increasing and decreasing air pressure. It is considered a consequential physiological development by doctors who examined it here, 11/12/35

Leg saver. Chester Antos, student at Georgetown University medical school, photographed with the newly devised Emerson suction pressure apparatus which designers believe will prevent amputation in many cases. The mechanical "boot" is to be used in treatment of severe cases of peripheral vascular diseases. The device was developed by Dr. Louis A. Hermann of Cincinnati. By increasing and decreasing the air pressure alternatively, the "boot" tends to stimulate circulation through the leg. The pump boot is a gift to Georgetown University Hospital from an alumnus. 11/12/35

Vacuum shaping machine. Flat carcasses taken from the storage racks are placed in this vacuum machine in which two things happen. First a combination vacuum suction and squeezing action pulls the tire into the shape it will always have in use. Second, an airbag is forced into the inside to provide inside strength for the curing step. Firestone (General) Tires, Akron, Ohio
