SIXTEEN MEDrORD OREGON) MAIL TRISUN8 Tu4tT. Jinner- UST Army Seeking To Recover Document On Missile Data Washington U.R) The Army is trying to recover copies of a secret document containing guided missile information which fell into unauthorized hands in an apparent "violation of secu rity regulations." Army Secretary Wilbur M. Bruckcr announced an investi gation of the leak Monday night and said a senior officer is being questioned "among others" con cerning the matter. Document Unidentified Me identified the officer as Col. John C. Nickcrson Jr., 41. chief of the field coordination braenh, Army Ballistic Missile acency, Redstone arsenal, Hunts ville, Ala. Brucker did not identify the leaked document other than to say it "apparently contained se cret information" about Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson's Nov. 26 directive setting forth which guided missiles are to be under Air Force control and which under Army control. The document "was discov ered in the hands of unauthor ized persons," Bruckcr said.. He said the Army would not comment further while the in vestiaation is in progress. It "ii taking prompt steps to retrieve anv copies of the document vi hit h may have been dissemi nated." he said. Master of Science Nickcrson, a Kentuckian, was graduated from West Point in lfl:i8 and holds a master of sci ence deqree in aeronautics from the California Institute of Tech nology. He served in the research and development division of Army Ordnance before going to Hunts ville. His decorations include two Silver Stars, a Bronze Star and a Croix de Guerre with star. Experimenting With Hypnosis as Anesthetics Substitute Revealed New York (U.F The first ex- periment with hyposis as a sub stitute for anesthetics and pain deadeners in a hospital emer gency room showed that it work- I ed almost equally well in two ! kinds of cases. . These were persons with bro I ken bones and persons with wounds which required consid ! erable stitching. The emergency surgical treatment should have been painful. It wasn't, under hypnosis. Dr. L. Goldie experimented with emergency room patients as they appeared, without mak ing any effort to sort out those who appeared "susceptible" to hypnosis from those who might not have been. Injury Typ. Important Susceptibility, he found, seem ed to have little to do with whether hypnosis would prevent a person from feeling pain dur ing a painful operation. What seemed very important was whether the patient had an in jury which obviously required immediate surgical attention or 25 NATO Airfields To Be Built in Germany Bonn, Cermany ((j.R) An additional 25 NATO airfields will be built in West Germany in the near future at a cost of some $:!57 million, according to in formed sources.

Broken bones and spectacular wounds requiring sewing im press the patients who have them; they're keenly aware that something catastrophic has hap pened to them. But abscesses or a splinter or a nail in the body, doesn't seem as immediately threatening. With these latter Goldie avoided the nonsensical palaver usually associated with hypnosis. With the patient on the table, he. held him in con versation. He asked if the patient had a vivid imagination, if he could imagine himself relaxing on a bed or on a beach. Often, continued the doctor to his pa tient, you don't feel the shoes on your feet or the clothes on your body unless you think of them. So it is with all sensations. So it can be with surgery, said the doctor, adding that the pa tient must .speak right up if he felt anything in which case he would be given an anesthetic. The doctor then told the patient to pick out a way of distracting his thoughts from his injury either to relive in his imagina tion a time and place when he felt utterly relaxed, or to con centrate with each breath on re laxing every muscle. He used this hypnosis on 28 cases of broken or dislocated bones with only two failures. The patients varied in age from three years to 57. The effective rate for 95 persons with wounds requiring sewing was almost as impressive. Dr. Goldie worked in ' the emergency room of a big London hospital. His report was pub lished by the British Medical Association. He specified that his results were experimental and he hoped that "further work will remove hypnosis and related phenomena from the position of a medical curiosity, impractical in use and unsavory in -reputation."
