"He was just a ghost of a little , boy when he came," Dr. May sn recalled. 1 Dr. May said he used skin from the child's own back for the first operations to cover w Dom armies, legs ana part oi his thighs. "Then I ran out of skin," the doctor explained. J To add to the dilemma, part bi of the area from which the good J skin was taken failed to heal be ih cause of Melvin's condition. Mr. May said In desperation he decided to use the skin of another person, though such grafts, ha emphasized, do not al ways take permanently except with identical twins. Melvin's father, Martin, vol tintered and came to Philadel phia for the operations. Rev oi IK Film Processors Set Strike Date New York.

Gronchi said a new vote would be taken today. He said he hoped the cancelled vote was "an error," caused by the fact that deputies were casting bal lots simultaneously for two mi nor laws. The ballot was cast on a mo lion of the Christian democrat party for approval of the treaty, after the chamber had defeated a motion by Palmiro Togliatti, communist leader, for a rejec tion of the pact. The vote on the Togliatti motion was 318 to 159, with 13 abstentions. Italian Foreign Minister Carlo Sforza told the chamber earlier he was "astounded" by Russia's note protesting ratification of the pact. .

Portland's federal post No. 97 has approved a bonus resolution for introduction at the state convention. It favors a maxi mum payment of $600 on a basis of $10 for each month of do mestic service and $15 for each month of overseas duty between Sept. 16, 1940 and Dec. 31, 1946. Veterans who lived In Ore gon at least a year prior to their entry into military service and were honorably discharged would be eligible under the Legion post plan. The post also called for the convention to work for refund of surplus payments on national service life insurance. It said a faulty actuarial table on which premiums are based, had result ed in $2,000,000,000 surplus ac cumulating. The supreme court has ruled it may be paid ' as dividends to policy holders, the post resolution said. It charged the veterans administration has delayed the dividend payments for "political reasons." Vacuum Plan for Hoppers Vetoed Stopping southeastern Ore- gons grasshopper invasion by using the vacuum cleaner prin ciple has no appeal for Gover nor Douglas McKay. He thinks it might not work, and it would cost too much. The governor said F. W. Ro- dolf of the U.S. army engineers! in Portland, suggested the hop pers could be sucked up by vacuum pumps attached to jeeps or trucks. Then the in sects would be ground up and sold to the game commission for fish food. The governor said he checked with the bug experts at Oregon State college, and that they didn't think too ' much of the idea, either.

Elliott Forces To Hold Rally Portland, July 21 W) A pub lic rally in support of Sheriff Mike Elliott has been called for Sunday. Recall petitions are being cir culated against Elliott. Leaflets distributed yesterday called the meeting for Sunday afternoon in a public park. They said the sponsor was the legal defense movement, an organiz tion known also as the citizens' action committee. County democratic central committee chairman Nicholas Granet, who last week said he was Elliott's spokesman in all matters connected with the re call, said he had no knowledge of the rally. The leaflets urged opposition to "Invisible government" that had already put a democratic county treasurer out of office after his election last Novem ber. They said the same forces were working to oust the young democraitc sheriff. For the love of Mike, come and bring your friends," the announcement said. Meanwhile, recall committee chairman T. L. Gatch, retired vice admiral, said about 2,200 signatures on recall election pe titions had been sent to county election officials for verifica tion.
