(AP) — Health officials confirmed Tues- day that a 17-day-old boy died from meningitis, making him the fourth victim of the rare disease in Syracuse within the past month. Onondaga County Deputy Health Commissioner Dr. David Brittain said officials are now trying to determine whether the infant died from one of the same two strains that led to the other deaths or whether officials are dealing with a new, third strain.

As part of a forum titled \Ig- norance is Not Bliss,\ Novello and Sheehy used both stark statistics and humor Tuesday as they answered the question posed by the forum, \What Will You Need to Know by 2002?\ The increasing numbers of post-menopausal women, many of whom will remain in the work force longer than men, domestic violence against women, reproductive options that still lag behind western Europe, breast cancer and AIDS were among the issues raised at the New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center's 10th annual Women's Health Symposium. Sheehy, author of \The Silent Passage: Menopause,\ painted Motorman murder trial goes to the jury both a troubling and engaging picture of coming decades when she said post-menopausal females, or \wise women,\ will become more dominant Novello, who said one woman in eight now faces breast cancer, said women have put their own health concerns aside for too long. Two out of five women will have some type of cancer in their lifetime, she added. For centuries, women past childbearing age were often deem- ed sexually unattractive and ir- relevant, Sheehy said. But with the rapid aging of America, such women will be more prevalent than ever before, she said. By 2005, she said, 82 percent of all women will work and many of them will be in their mid to late 50s. \Baby boomers will transform our perception of menopause in the next years,\ said Sheehy. \Offices and boardrooms will be lighting up with hot flashes.\ Sheehy said one group of women she met insisted they don't have hot flashes, they have \power surges.\ - Sheehy, 54, regaled the audience with a lengthy fantasy about an ideal future for older women, one in which Cosmopolitan magazine might feature an article titled, \Sex and the 65-Year-Old Gal.\ \Menopause will then not be so much an end of life but rather a bridge to a second adulthood,\ Sheehy said. \If 45 is the old age of youth, then 50 is the youth of your second adulthood.\ But Sheehy also warned that the graying of America has not always benefited women. In her research, she said she's often found \bag lady fears\ beneath the surface of apparently secure, middle-aged women who are afraid of what could happen to them if they are divorced or widowed or lose their jobs. Novello also stressed that a lack of financial security for women often leads them to neglect their health. \I would like to correct a very pervasive idea,\ Novello said. \I often hear that poor people won't comply with medical protocols or regimens. Maybe they can't.com- ply *- not that they won't, but' can't Maybe they ctui't afford the bus fare, have no baby sitter, can't miss work, can't pay for drugs or checkups. Can't, not won't\ Novello said women must stand up for themselves — and their health. \I think it's time for a little rage,\ she said. \In women it's called PMS. In men, it's called initiative. Women have had enough rhetoric. It's time for ac- tion.\ City Health Commissioner Margaret Hamburg, Con- gresswoman Nita Lowey and Florence Haseltine, founding president of the Society for the Advancement of Women's Health, were among the other speakers at the symposium. SanMurs NEW YORK (AP) — Jurors have begun deliberating the fate of the subway motorman who was driv- ing a train that crashed, killing five people and injuring more than 200. The jury began considering murder charges Tuesday afternoon against Robert Ray, who was allegedly drunk when the crash occurred. The panel recessed after three hours without reaching a verdict and was scheduled to re- sume talks this morning. In closing arguments, Assistant District Attorney Daniel Brownell said that Ray acted so irrespon- sibly by driving drunk that the killings were \equivalent to an intentional act\ Ray, 39, on trial in Manhattan state Supreme Court, is charged with five counts of murder and numerous counts of assault in the derailment and crash just after midnight Aug. 28, 1991, at the Union Square station. Ray denies being drunk at the train's control. He contends that he was so upset after his southbound CRT No. 4 express train crashed that he fled the scene and drank at least four 16-ounce cans of Colt 45 malt liquor. •Noting that Ray offered no help to anyone as he fled, Brownell said, \The ship's captain was the first to get in the lifeboat and get out.\ Brownell recalled that a lex- icologist, Dr. Marina Stajic, testified that Ray's blood alcohol level was two to three times the legal limit for drunkenness when he was tested 13 hours after the crash. \I've been drinking all day,\ Brownell quoted Ray as telling police during questioning. \I don't know how much I had to drink before work. ... I know I must have dozed off when I miss- ed those two stations in the Bronx.\ Ray overshot two train platforms in the Bronx when he began his shift, and crashed the train later that night in downtown Manhattan. Ray's attorney, Michael Parson, argued that prosecutors did not prove the defendant was drunk at the train's controls. He said they showed only that he was drunk when he was tested. About six hours after the acci- dent, \police questioned Ray under very impaired cir- cumstances,\ Parson said. \He stank of alcohol. Detectives could smell it four feet away. In that confused state he said things.\ In the written statement he gave police, Ray said, \I'm an alco- holic and I need help.\ Ray also had slept only about 2 '/i hours the afternoon before arriving at work at the Woodlawn station around 11:35 p.m., Parson said. It was the lack of sleep, not alcohol, that caused him to doze at the controls, Parson said. \Nobody who saw Robert Ray (the night of accident) thought anything was wrong,\ Parson said. He said transit officials were looking for a scapegoat. \They need someone to blame,\ the lawyer said, because they don't want the public to think the transit system can be unsafe. \Even if he was intoxicated, it still wasn't murder,\ Parson told the jury. \Robert Ray is guilty of nothing more than a tragic mistake, He will live with it forev- er.\ Clean, Dry Building in Ray Brook.
