Dr. Karl M. Bowman of the University of California's Lang ley Porter clinic told the 106th annual American Psychiatric as sociation that the drug antabuse, now used in some sanatariums to help cure chronic drinkers, may be "toned down a little so it can be sold over the counter in drug stores." Doctors Acclaim Drug Bowman, also head of the uni versity's medical school psychia tric department, said antabuse, 'the chemical name of which is tetraethylthiauramdisulphide, is . a relative new drug. Many doc tors have acclaimed it as the best treatment known for alcoholism. When administered properly, K makes a patient violently ill if he drinks anything containing alcohol. "Right now the drug definitely is dangerous unless administered by a physician," Bowman said. "It could prove fatal if given to someone with a weak heart or other serious internal ailments." (Armt Telephoto) MAROONED SHEEP Over 50 farm animals, mostly sheep, were marooned on this barnyard island as flood waters continued to cover The Red River Valley along the North Dakota-Minnesota border. Al though the National Guard and Coast Guard have evacuated ani mals in critical areas, their operations have been hampered by blis aaxd conditions. Note snow on barn root. Foreign Jets May Be First Used on Domestic Routes Washington, May 4 OI.R) Foreign-made planes may be the first jet transports to fly on do mestic air routes, it appeared to day. U. S. airlines originally had hoped to borrow air force B-45 jet bombers for experimental use as domestic transports. But the budget bureau has ruled that "commercial" models must be used. Sens. Edwin C. Johnson (D., Colo.) and Owen Brewster (R., Me.) now have introduced a bill calling for a $12,500,000 appro priation for planes, especially jets. The bill would earmark at least $1 million of the fund in flying jet planes over domestic routes, without passengers, to gather operations costs and other data. Lines Must Wait Government sources said U. S. lines either must wait until the bill is enacted and some manu facturer builds the jet transports or they can obtain foreign jets. Ironically, American manufac turers originally supported the bill as a means of hastening the day when they could build and market jets. British and Canadian manufac turers already have jets flying and might consider it good busi ness to make their ships avail able to the U. S. airlines. Bremerton, Wash., May S (U.R) Capt. William Edward Sul-. livan, 52, commander of the Puget Sound naval shipyard, died at the U. S. naval hospital here today.
