Woman as Pof of First Space Ship
Not Taken as Summer Light Headedness
G
By H. D. QUIGG
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) Women!
Look alive! You may be the first
sex to get out of this world.
That is, if the men who build
O and send out our first space ship
q will jus pay attention to reason
q and don't let their masculine
6 pride stand in the way of prog-
q This is no pipe dream. It's the
considered opinion of one of the
0 country's rocket experts that a
owoman would be better suited in
body and mind than a man to
O
pilot the first space ship.
Serious Thinking
"Q The expert is Kurt R. Steh-
ling, rocket engineer with the
Bell Aircraft Corp., Buffalo.
N.Y. He realizes that speculation
about women space-travelers
might be taken as summertime
light headedness, but he's been
G doing some serious thinking
2 about it.
"You have to be careful," he
"A lot of
it wo-
g said in an interview.
folks just can't picture
men being pioneers in space, but
G a lot of women will agree with
you, even if the men don't."
Stahling, asked at the outset
to comment on a report that a
well-educated woman probably
would be the first human being
to make a space flight, replied:
"It might be very much so.
I've thought about it, asked my
self the question, talked about
it with my wife and other peo
ple, and considered it while look
ing over the reports we get on
space- medicine.
"It's surprising how well ad
justed a mechanism a woman is,
as compared with a man. And
the first time in a space ship, be
lieve me, is going to be pretty
rough.
"Several things enter in. For
one thing, it's been shown that
women can take some of the
physical conditions involved in
space travel better than men
they have ability to withstand
acceleration, sudden changes of
speed. Then, there's the respira
tory factor.
Smaller Lungs
"Their lungs are not so big, so
the amount of oxygen per unit
pound of weight is not so much.
In space, theres' no way to re
plenish the air from the outside,
and no way for radiation. Wo
men's temperature is a little bit
lower, they don't perspire as
much, and they can adjust bet
ter to sudden changes in tem
perature." Of course, he added, it's ex
tremely important to cut down
the weight of a rocket, and de
signers always are looking for
ways to cut down the payload.
A well-trained woman pilot
weighing only 100 pounds would
be a big saving in the load to
be hoisted off the earth.
"One big point is the psycho
logical factor," Stahling said.
"Women don't break under cer
tain psychological strains, dur
ing the way it was found., they
stood up better to bombing and
other homefront stresses.
"In space, the absence of
weight, for instance, might im
pose a severe psychological
strain."
Myocardial Infarction
Found To Mean Nothing To
Some Medical Patients
Tuesday, August 23, 19SS
MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TJUIUR TtTM
By DELOS SMITH
United Pdess Science Writer
New York U.R) A curious
physician has found new evi
dence that pain is not so much
what it is as what it means.
Pain is in some cases a
myocardinal infarction, which is
a mouth-filling phrase. But the
myocardium simply is the muscu
lar tissue of the heart and in
fact is a patch of dead or dying
tissue therein, caused by an in
terruption in blood supply.
To most people, myocardial
pain means what five alarms
mean a disaster is impending
if it hasn't already happened.
The curious physician has been
studying people to whom myo
cardial pains seems to mean
nothing.
Immune to Pain
He is Dr. Walter E. Marchand,
chief of medical service in the
Veterans Administration psy
chiatric hospital at Bedford,
Mass. His people are psychotics
victims of several mental dis
orders. Of these people who have had
myocardial infarctions since
1947, 8.25 per cent of them had
their infarctions without pain
an astonishing proportion to any
heart doctor (as this writer found
out by inquiry) and which should
astonish any layman when he
visualizes functioning heart mus
cle and the sensations an infarct
should produce.
"I believe that psychotic pa
tients, although they perceive
painful sensations, do not react
to pain because of the fact that
the meaning of pain is actually
lost to them," said Marchand in
his report to the New England
Journal of medicine.
As he pointed out, there "is no
wholly satisfactory explanation
for such occurrences." Myocar
dial infarction is without pain to
a very small percentage of its
victims in the mentally normal
population. For his psychotic pa
tients, he speculated that flaws
in their body chemistry may
have caused diffuse damage to
cells of the brain cortex which
"could account for the loss of
meaning of pain."

O wood that usually amain foreigners

Written for The. United Press
Hollywood (U.R) There's
a, only one thing in the United
& States which has been very
good for me that I'm afraid of.
That is. the perennial gossip-and-
rumor mill.
'it's very flattering to find my
self, suddenly the center of col
umnists' attentions wherever I
go. I'm grateful for it.
Proof of the value of publicity
came to me shortly after I ar
rived in New York. I'd done
"Robert Montgomery" and "Sus
pense" TV shows when a na
tional magazine ran a layout on
me. Director Philip Dunne saw
it and suggested I be tested for
a contract at 20th Century-Fox.
Others saw it and my shows, and
y I had offers from practically
6 every studio in Hollywood.
It's Important
o So I do know that publicity
is important, but the personal
o rumor type is what bothers me.
And, believe me, the New York
i rumor mill is no different from
the Hollywood one. Every time
I -lunched with an agent, a TV
O director or producer, although
it was made strictly business,
it was made to sound strictly
personal in the columns.
But to be tagged as a playgirl
when you're working like mad
to learn your craft, to gather
experience and credits, is dis
concerting. You begin to won
o der when you see yourself tag
Q ged a "romantic twosome" with
tt variety of men whether a
producer thinking of employing
o you won't classify you as too
0 interested in the social butterfly
life to concentrate on a part.
No Safety in Numbers
A classic example of the ru
mor mill came when I went to
my first Hollywood premiere at
Grauman's Chinese Theater. It
was the charity opening of
"Daddy Long Legs," and my es
corts were Gregory Ratoff, Leon
Shamroy and Richard Todd all
very happily married men. I
naturally thought there was
safety from rumors in numbers.
But next thing I knew there was
a column item to the effect that
Richard Todd and British actress
Dana Wynter had ignited.
Richard and his wife and I
happen to be old chums. Since
he had returned to Hollywood
for a single day's added scene
with Bette Davis for "The Vir
gin Queen," Mrs. Todd remained
in London. Richard flew home
next morning to join her.
No Femme Fatale
While I'm naturally excited
about playing a femme fatale
who falls in love with a man
she knows is married in "The
View From Pompey's Head," I
don't fancy being tagged one in
real life.
And when my agent, Charles
Feldman, takes me to a dinner
party where I can meet motion
picture people who might think
of me for future roles, that
doesn't make us "a romantic
duo."
Please don't misunderstand.
At this point. I'm most grateful
for any notice I receive. But
why not hold the romantic ru
mors until they're warranted, or
even interesting?

Americans arrived.

And he .kept right on protesting
