Sir Eden Begins Series of Tests Boston (U.R) Sir Anthony Eden began a series of medical tests today in a new attempt to heal the abdominal ailment which forced an end to his politi cal career three months ago. The former British prime min ister arrived by plane Sunday from New Zealand. His post-retirement vacation there - had been cut short by recurrence of fevers apparently caused by a digestive ailment for which he has twice undergone surgery. The long-time crown prince of Britain's Conservative Party, now 59, slept throughout most of the last leg from Vancouver, B.C. of his 10,000 mile flight. A heavy tan belied his illness, but, Eden, for many years the very model of a proper British diplomat, faltered slightly as he left his car at New England Baptist Hospital, and his at tempted smile was weak. Lahey Clinic surgeon Dr. Richard B. Cattell, who operated on Eden for a bile duct obstruc tion in June 1953, said his pati ent seemed "comfortable" and was "in no pain." He was or dered to bed immediately to rest for the medical tests. Sergeants Seely, Gildesgard and Mitchell; and Officers Elroy P. Erickson, Robert F. James, Berle E. Stevens, Ted H. Whistler, Robert Allen and Tusow. A recent feature of the train ing program has been instruc tions from several Medford at torneys on court and legal pro cedures.
