EYES OP SLAYER
10
Man Executed by Firing
Squad Bequeaths Tissues
to Science Fifty Blind
Hope for Operation
8 AN FRANCISCO. Not. 1. (UP)
The eyes of a man executed by a
sherUf's firing aquad In Utah for
murder were brought here by United
Airlines last night to be used In an
effort to restore eight to one or two
blind persons.
The slayer, John Deerlng, willingly
gave his eyes to science. Utah doe
tors decided to send them to the
anonymous Ban Francisco doctor who
Is developing an operation In which
the corneal tissues from the eyes of
the dead are transferred to the
sightless eyes of living persons to
restore their vision.
.Many Blind Hope
More than 00 blind persons are
waiting hopefully here for such oper
ations. The patient or patients who
will benefit from Deerlng's act have
not yet been selected.
On their arrival here, the eyes,
already , packed in Ice to preserve
them, wen placed In a hospital re
frigerator where they will be kept
at below-freezing temperatures. The
success of the operation depends on
keeping the corneal tlssuse alive, and
freezing accomplishes this.
The doctor, whose skill already has
restored vision partially to three per
sons, was not certain the long dis
tance transfer would be successful.
First Test
"We wish to examine the eyes
carefully, as this Is the first time
sny such long distance shipment haa
been made," he said.
He Indicated, however, that If the
shipment did not damage the tissues,
sn operation, or possibly two, would
be performed within the next day or
two.
The Rev. U. O. Harding, a Port
land, Ore,, clergyman, was the first
to benefit from the doctor's skill
here. After tissues from the eye of
a dead woman had been transferred
to one of his eyes, Harding left for
homo able to see dimly after 40
years of blindness. Two other persons
also have benefitted similarly.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1, (UP)
Mrs Vera O'Hennsan. 65, arrived at
an emergency hospital in two sec

O'Hennssn In person arrived first.
Then, after a hurried trip to her

GEESE AND DUCKS
PORTT-aAND, Nov. 1. (UP) Wil
liam Rush, district director of the
United States biological survey, said
today after a return from a tour of
game refuges that "the program of
game conservation Is bearing fruit."
He said there are about 500,000
ducks at Malheur lake and 200,000
geose. The' Sacramento valley rofugo
and Tule lake have tho biggest con
centration In years, he added.
"Oregon and California hunters are
having good shooting," Rush de
clared, "The public shooting section
of the Tule lake refuge Is being
visited by about 1.000 hunters daily.
The flights of birds are denser this
year than ever before."

MEDFORD DEALERS
Three smart new 01damobi.ee for
1039 two sixes and an - eight all
offering a fresh new note In modern
streamline styling and much that Is
new in mechanical design, make thetr
public debut today at the Medford
garage. 131 North Bartlett, local Olds
mobile dealer.
Among the high points of Interest
In the cars with which Oldsmoblle
starts Its 42nd model year ae:
Addition to the line of a brand
new six cylinder car which brings
Oldsmoblle quality to the low price
field.
Introduction on all models of the
"rhythmic ride," a new perfection
of road ability and riding comfort
resulting from quadrl-coll springing
In combination with four separate
stabilizing factors built Into the
chassis.
Attainment of perfect steering ge
ometry through a new hook-up em
ploying a relay link with twin tie
rods of equal length, termed "dual
center-control steering."
Introduction of handl - shift as
standard equipment a replacement
of the conventional gear shift lever
by a short, horizontal manual shift
arm on the steering column.
Continuation as an optional extra
on all models of Oldsmobtle's auto
matic safety transmission which pro
vides Important added advantages In
performance, operating economy and
ease of control.
The low priced six. known as the
Series Sixty, la powered with a newly
developed "econo-master" engine of
00 brake horsepower designed to pro
vide top flight performance at mini
mum operating cost. A large six.
developing 05 horsepower and with
a wheelbase of 120 Inches, is desig
nated the Series Seventy, while the
110 horsepower straight eight on the
same wheel base has been named the
Series Eighty.
All three series bear a general
resemblance In the graceful treat
ment of flaring, low-valanced fenders,
smartly tailored metal trim, smoothly
contoured all-steel turret top bodies
and safety steel wheels with massive
chromed hub caps. The front end of
tho hood curves downward to meet
the narrow, die-cast radiator grille,
creating a fleet, close-to-the-road
Impression and affording the driver
a marked advantage in foreground
visibility. The aprons on either side
of tho radiator grlllo carry low, bullet
typo headlamps, recrmed above hori
zontal chromo louvers which provide
additional nlr Inlets for efficient en
gine cooling.
Among tho. many new Oldsmoblle
developments for 1030, tho one which
probably will draw major attention
la the "rhythmic ride" and the means
by which it has been achieved. The
"rhythmic ride," according to Rook
Emerson of the Medford garage, offers
an entirely new cencoptton of motor

ing comfort which results from the
absolute control maintained over the
action of the "quadrt-coU" springs by
the various stabilizing devices de
signed and built Into the cnassis.
Coll springs now are employed both
front and rear. The front wheels are
Individually sprung (knee - action),
while a traverse axle connects the
rear wheels. All four of the coll
springs have a constant rate of
deflection a feature impossible of
attainment with leaf springs because
of lubrication and friction variables.
With four coll springs, however, en
gineers previously have encountered
difficulty In controlling the roll and
sway which are Inherent In the ac
tion of this type of spring. To control
this tendency, Oldsmoblle engineers
have developed the following stabil
izing factors:
Vertical or up and down movement
of the car body Is restrained by dou
ble action hydraulic' shock absorbers
of a new and more effective type.
Pore and aft movement Is pre
vented by two sturdy stabilizing arms
which grip the rear axle close to the
wheels and are pivot-anchored to the
frame cross-member about halfway
forward on the chassis.
Side to side motion is blocked bp
a lateral stabilizer arm at the rear
of the chassis. One end la fastened
to the axle and the other to the
frame.
The tendency of a car to roll or
sway on curves la resisted In the
new Oldsmobiles by a spring steel
stabilizer bar at the front of the
chassis.
All four of the stabilizing units
of the chassis are rendered perma
nently silent by being cushioned in
rubber. And, since coll springs have
no friction points and require no
lubrication. Mr. Emerson points out
that the 1030 Oldsmoblle "rhythmic
ride" Is a permanent, bullt-ln feature
that will last unchanged for the life
of the car.
POLICE RADIOMAN
BEND, Ore.,. Nov. J. (TJIM Wil
liam R. Patton, chief technician of
the short-wave radio division ope
rated Jointly by the state police and
highway departments, suffered a
badly crushed leg when he was
struck by an automobile on The
Dalles-California highway seven miles
north of here last night.
Traveling south, Patton came upon
an automobile wreck in which a
car and truck were involved, but In
which no one was hurt.
He started to set up his portable
short-wave broadcasting outfit to
call for a wrecking car to aid those
involved In the collision, when a
machine driven by the Rev. O. W.
Reynolds of Silver Lake came along.
Rain had made the road slick,
and tho Rev. Reynolds was unable
to stop his car before It struck Pat
ton, who was brought to a Bend
hospital.
