Blakesle. AP Srlenea Editor DENVER . - tP) A new-snow-white, plastic lung material that docs most everything except breathe was shown to the Col orado Sate Medical Society meet ing here. The white stuff replaces lost lung tissue when part of a lung is collapsed in treating tubercu losis at the National Jewish Hos pital, Denver. Dr. Allan Hurst, medical director of the hospital, planned the exhibit. Same as Flesh The plastic is soft as flesh. It is about the same weight as lung tissue. It is odorless, taste, less, non-irritating and perma ncnt. It is porous, with thousands of fine irregular holes, closely re- semnnng real jungs. ine lung s natural fibers grow into the syn thetic sponge and anchor it in place. The result is a repair job that fills out a damaged lung to its natural shape. Without repairs of this sort, a person becomes slab-sided, with a hollow instead of the usual chest bulge. The new plastic is the latest of many medical attempts to solve the lung repair problem. It was invented by Lawrence Heightshoe, a Denver plastics company man ager. He is a World War vet-1 eran, disabled in that war. Made In Oven Heightshoe has a private lab oratory in Longmont, near Den ver. But he made the first batch of lung filler in his wife's kitch en oven. The new lung has been used on human patients, replacing bub bles of lucite, which are light weight plaster spheres about the size of golf balls. The substitutes lung problem is world-wide, for lung collapse for tuberculosis alone is done on hun dreds of thousands. Cancer oper ations are adding more. The handmade American glass industry is largly concentrated today near Wheeling, W. Va., close to despite of the world's finest 'silica sand, principal ingredient of 'glass. State Denies Shelfon Case SALEM UP) The State Civil Service Commission has refused to erant a hearing to Earl R. Shelton, 31, state hospital attend ant who was fired Sept. 6 on charges of cruelty to patients. The commission said it did not give Shelton his hearing because he is a conditional employe, in stead of a regular employe. Con ditional employes are those who hold their jobs without taking civil service examinations, iney don't have the same hearing rights as employes who hold their jobs through examinations. Examinations never have been given for the hospital attendant jobs, but the commission hopes to begin them in November. Robert Johnson, state civil ser vice administrator, said the com mission could grant a hearing to a conditional employe if there was evidence he was fired for political, racial of religious rea sons. But the law doesn't com pel the commission to do so. Johnson explained that Shelton submitted no evidence that poli tical, racial or religious issues iirsra invnlvpH. W. Sflirf he ffflt nO evidence of any kind from Shel ton. All Shelton sent the com mission was a request for a hear ing. Johnson said. Dr. C. E. Bates, hospital super intendent, confirmed for abusing patients. McSata did not ask for a hearing. The Hopewell Village furnace in Pennsylvania made cannon and shot for George Washington s sol diers at Valley Forge. Refinery Blast Kills Three FORT WORTH. 'Tex.
