MERCY PLEA
Doctors Send Call for Drug
To Help Pain-Ridden Child
Denver, June 29 (U.R) Denver doctors sent out an urgent plea
today for 20 grams of a new miracle drug which may mean the
difference between happy health and a life of pain for a 5-year-old
blue-eyed little girl.
Doctors at Denvers' children's hospital wanted the few grams
of Compound a hard-to-gets-
miracle drug now manufactured lflArJn- L-.rr Dnrlu

the fight for life being waged by
Sharon Kay Reed of Yuma, Colo.
The drug, of which less than
a pound has been produced so
far, is needed to cure little Shar
on Kay of the rare Still's dis
ease, a form of rheumatoid ar
thritis which has filled her life
with suffering since she was
only 18 months old.
Sharon Kay, who looked for
ward to her fifth birthday Fri
day through racking pain, was
brought to the Denver hospital
by her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
John Reed of Yuma, on Feb. 26.
Her tiny body was twisted so
badly that her hip joints were
fixed at a 90-degree angle and
her knees were drawn up near
her chin.
Through continued applica
tion of traction and treatment
with metallic gold infra-red and
pool methods, specialists have
been able to straighten her body,
but the disease is "chronic and
progressive" and Sharon Kay's
future is still dark.
Doctors trying to cure the lit
tle girl took heart with a dis
closure by the Mayo Clinic in
Rochester, Minn., that Com
pound E has proved effective in
cases like Sharon's.
Taken from Deschutes
The Dalles, Ore., June 29 (U.R)
A body recovered from the east
bank of the Deschutes river was
identified here Tuesday as that
of Gordon Hall, about 60, who
disappeared March 11 from an
auto camp at Maupin.
The body was sighted Sunday
by fishermen at a point about 20
miles from the mouth of the
river and was recovered yester-
day by Sherman county Sheriff
Norman Fields and Coroner
Bruce Alley, Everett Cantrell
and Gill Pausch of Grass Valley
In investigating Hall's disap
pearance, authorities followed a
theory of suicide since Hall is
known to have been despondent
as the result of poor health.
