REPORT OF SPECIAL MEDICAL EXAMINATION
Purpose of the Examination
.
To determine Mr. Goans present physical condition with special reference to his
perit reported pneumoconiosis attributed to exposure while doing insulation work over a of 43 or 44 years
The patient states that he has worked as an insulator since a young man less than 18 ye of age during the period of World War I. He says that over these years he has used many different kinds of insulating materials particular asbestos and corrugated paper duringearly years and during the last four years or so has been concerned mainly with fiberglass insulation He says that he has worked in all kinds of construction including ships and public buildings Usually the work has involved the insulation of pipes and
boilers rather than walls Frequently the work involved insulation of both hot and cold
air duct lines He says that frequently there was dust and sometimes he was required t
-
work in relatively closed poorly ventilated spaces
He considered himself to be well and had no complaints until recently He says that abc
three or four years ago his union made arrangements to have members take rays once
a year at the Kaiser Hospital in Oakland California He believes that his first ray w
made about three years ago and that he had never had an ray of the chest made before He was told at that time that there was evidence of some dust in his lungs at first only
on the bottom of the lungs but in more recent years that this was worsening and that it involved not only the bottom but also the top of the lungs When informed that there
was progressive disease he went to see a physician in San Francisco
Doctor Walter Kolman 3490- 20th Street Doctor Kolman confirmed the diagnosis and
advised Mr. Goans to discontinue his work and to apply for disability benefits The
patient states that he has been eager to continue working if possible until the usual
retirement age of 65 years but of course he is not willing to run any risk of serious
pulmonary difficulty He says that it is not possible to escape all exposure to dust in his
that in this occupation and
he would not be able to find a job

A hearing on the amended Application of Robert 0. Goans is scheduled before
the California Industrial Accident Commission on September 16 1963 in
Room 3000 of the State Building 111l Jackson Street Oakland at 9 A.M. Both Armstrong and Armstrong Contracting and Supply Corporation are named in the Application
Mr. Goans was employed by Armstrong Cork Company for a period prior to March 31 1955 from June 21 1955 to November 2 1955 and from October 21 1957 to November 22 1957. We say for a period of time prior to March 31
1955 because we are unable to determine just how long due to the records
being destroyed in accordance with our established retention of records schedule Even though we have the employment dates for 1955 the records
showing wages earned during 1955 have been destroyed
Mr. Goans was in
Corporation from
the employ October 1
