Ten County Residents to Donate
Blood for Open Heart Surqerv
Ten Jackson county resi-1 solution, for use in the heart-
dents Tuesday will donate AB
Rh negative blood to be used
in open heart surgery "Wednes
day at the University of Ore
gon medical school hospital in
Portland, the Red Cross has
announced.
Medford is one of five
places from which 23 units
needed for the operation will
be collected. Others are Klam
ath Falls, Grants Pass, Coos
Bay and Roseburg. All the
blood will be collected Tues
day since blood used in open
heart surgeries must be less
than 24 hours old.
The surgery Wednesday
will be on a 12-year-old south
ern Oregon girl.
After blood is drawn from
the five communities, the Civ
il Air Patrol will fly it to
Portland, where a volunteer
driver from the Portland-Mult-nomah
County Red Cross
chapter will deliver it to the
University of Oregon medical
school hospital.
In Special Bottles
Most of the blood will be
dravn in special siliconate

lung machine which oxygen
ates and circulates blood
through the patient's body
while the heart defect is being
repaired.
Some blood, however, will
be drawn in the usual ACD so
lution in the regular bottles
for use in direct transfusion
during or after surgery, if
necessary.
On the morning of surgery,
the heparinized blood is
placed in a warm bath to
bring its temperature up to
normal body heat. This must
be done slowly so as not to
destroy the cells, and takes
about IVz hours.
Preliminary Phases
During the preliminary
phases of the surgery, the
heart-lung machine is assenv
bled, the pump primed with
the heparinized blood, now at
body temperature, and a test
run of the machine on a closed
circuit is made, after which
two tubes from the machine
are attached to veins in the
patient's heart. A third tube
is attached to the femoral ar
tery in the groin.
After the machine is started,
the aorta is clamped off, shut
ting off the blood supply and
a paralyzing agent is injected
to stop heart action. Then the
machine takes over while sur
geons open up the stilled heart
and repair the defect.
When the incision in the
heart itself has been closed,
the clamp is removed from
the aorta, the rush of blood
quickly washes out the par
alyzing agent, and the heart
once again commences its
beat. However, the machine
may be turned back on sev
eral times for a brief moment
before the surgical team is sat
isfied that a sufficiently nor
mal rhythm has been estab
lished. Important Factor
Unfluctuating blood volume
is an important factor in the
success of open heart surgery.
Blood loss is measured
throughout the operation and
even a slight loss is quickly re
plenished by direct transfu
sion. Standby units of ACD
blood are always on handin
the operating-room.
Open heart surgeries have
been performed at the Univer
sity of Oregon medical school
at the rate of almost one a
week since last April. -

collection operation here in

Gold Hill Man
Named President
Of Motel Group
Ed Bolt, operator of Home
stead on the Rogue, Gold Hill,
was elected president of the
motel, resort and trailer park
operators of the Oregon Mo
tor Court association at its
14th annual convention in
Portland recently.
Bolt succeeds Harry Cum
mings, Portland.
One of the state's most ac
tive tourist promoters from
southern Oregon, Bolt told
delegates at the convention
that their greatest opportuni
ties are ahead. He pointed out
that what they say and do,
and what accommodations
they offer, will have a lasting
effect on the millions of guests
from outside the state who
will help Oregon celebrate its
100th year.
Urged To Take Lead
He urged that all operators
of public accommodations take
the lead in preparing unlimit
ed hospitality for the extra
influx of visitors, whose opin
ions and memories of Oregon
will depend upon the attitude
of every citizen in the state.
Ted Hallock, state coordina
tor for the Oregon Centennial
commission, challenged motel
operators from all parts of the
state with the task of being
gracious hosts to the 8 million
visitors expected in 1959.
Hallock pointed out that the
mere provision of facilities
and the physical acts of han
dling the number of people
expected to require the best
efforts of everyone engaged
in the business of housing
and serving them.
Other sessions of the con
vention were concerned with
problems of handling Oregon's
guests, including credit card
service, advance room reser
vations, swimming pools and
adequate furnishings.
Interest Booming
In History Books
Concerning State
As Oregon prepares this
year to roll out the red car
pet for its centennial anniver
sary in 1959, interest is boom
ing in books about its his
tory, according to Miss Helen
Websterj director of the Jack
son County library.
"Oregon became the na
tion's 33rd state a century
ago as a result of some of the
world's toughest pioneering
wagon trains cutting through
snow - covered passes, ships
hazarding the mouth of the
mighty Columbia, settlers
struggling for, wilderness sur
vival." So Nancy Bedingfield
reminds us in the foreword
to her compliation, "Oregon's
100 Years in Pictures."
The latest book on Oregon
history to be added to the
Jackson County library, this
is a collection of early en
gravings and photographs be
ginning with a portrait of
Capt. James Cook who sighted
the Oregon coast in 1778 and
continuing its illustration of
scenes and events in Oregon
up to the present day.
Other Books
A number of other books
on Oregon were added to the
library during the past few
weeks. David Lavender's
"Land of Giants," based on in
tensive research, tells the
story of the Pacific Northwest
from its first discoveries to
the present day. It is a long
and complicated tale of brav
ery, corruption, and greed
for fur, fame, glory, gold, and
souls.
The story of "John Mc
Loughlin, Father of Oregon,"
as told by Robert C. Johnson
also has an authentic back
ground to make it a story of
the entire Oregon country, not
only a biography. Robert
Stuart's journey of discovery
is related in Kenneth Spauld-
