tons (r-il By SHERMAN PLIMPTON ; Hollywood and the romance magazines will be unhappy to learn that secretaries are not interested In having oflice ro . mances with their bosses. This is the word that came out ot the convention of the National Secretaries Association in Washington, D. C. One young lady said, "Most secretaries are glad to leave their bosses, after eight hours." . This is a nasty blow to the modern Cin derella story. If it is taken . seriously it will ruin more movies than loud popcorn bags do.

It was done by television, us ing a color process developed by the Columbia Broadcasting sys tem. And it proved whatever the immediate commercial fu ture of color television may be that this form of video already is of value in teaching surgical techniques. The viewing screens were set up in the Blltmore hotel. The television camera- itself was 23 blocks away, trained on an op- erating table in Memorial hos pital. The surgeon was Dr. Alexan der Brunschwig,, a famous can cer expert The woman, about 51, was unidentified. She had agreed in advance to allow the operation to be televised, hoping It would be of value to the as sembled doctors. "This Is in no sense a cure," explained Dr. Brunschwig. "Her case is nopeiess. Kadiation nas failed. She is in pain, and this operation will relieve that" He spoke through a microphone attached to his throat. The cam era showed only his hands and the patient's abdomen as he swiftly made his incision. Huge Mass Removed Opening the body cavity, he discovered the malignant tumor had spread through most of the woman's lower organs. The tis sues stood out in clear relief un der color television. But when ever the camera switched back to black-and-white, they came al most indistinguishable. Quickly, cutting here, putting clamps there, he freed the ma lignant mass. Its size drew a gasp from the audience. To remove it the surgeon had to take out the cervix, bladder, and part of the colon and intestine. "Now we have taken out all the tumerous tissue visible to the naked eye," said Dr. Brun schwig. His Inference was clear there were other malignant ar eas impossible to reach with the knife. The blue-black cancer spots on the excised organs show ed clearly on the screen. "There is some question as to whether radical operations of this nature are worthwhile," the sur geon said, calmly, as he sewed up the severed blood vessels. "But we learned something from them. And some patients have lived more than two years are still alive after such oper ations. "The patient Is relieved of pain and restored to usefulness for a time at least In any case we don't philosophize about it too much. We do for each individual what we can." And the picture faded from the screen as the 3urgeon went about the routine task of sewing up his patient Later that day I sat before an other TV set and watched Notre Dame sink the Navy at footbal, 40 to 0. It's an eerie thing tele vision, catching. a life and death drama in the morning, football In the afternoon. All through the same I kent thinking of the unknown lady in the hospital, who can't live very long but at least won't hurt for a while. I wonder what she will do with the time she has left?
