They'd call a plastic sur geon. , Sometimes these "recon structive" surgeons use their techniques to bolster a wom an's ego and dimensions. Or to right a nose bone that is a bit off center. Most of their time, however, is spent putting broken body parts together and correcting serious mistakes of nature. Such - work demands that a plastic surgeon be artist and inventor. Take a case that Drs. Gor don Davenport and Frank D. Bernard, of the University of Wisconsin Medical School, re cently faced. The tip of the patient's nose had been sheared off in an auto accident. . The problem: Find suitable tissue to fashion a new nose Up.. , , Skin from parts of the body normally covered by clothing was ruled out because it rare ly matches color or texture of face skin. - Most skin that matched could not be spared. They finally settled for the ear lobe. Ear lobes work successfully in cases involving injury to the nostrils, or the fleshy end of the nasal septum, the par tition between the two nasal cavities. Transfer Skin - Surgeons transfer skin and underlying fat from the ear lobe. A tongue-in-groove tech nique shapes the ear tissue to fit firmly into the damaged portion of the nose. . Dr. Clarence R. Straatsma, associate professor of plastic surgery at New York College of Medicine, has used skin be hind the patient's ears in nose reconstruction cases. . He sometimes uses skin from the upper eyelid, in some cases, removing half the skin, without disturbing eye lid function. Automobile accidents, ac cording to Dr. Straatsma pro vide a steady stream of pa tients with severely injured noses. Fights, especially mug gings, also are a source. How to repair missing or deformed ears is a problem that has caught the imagina tion of a group of doctors in Pittsburgh, Pa. This condition occurs about once in every 20,000 births. and Ross H. Musgrave have developed a three-stage opera tion for such children. Seven ty boys and girls with this de formity have gone through the surgery. Nine were born with both ears deformed or missing. Two joined curved rib car tilages, taken from the child's own chest cage, are used for the basic framework of - the new ear. ' Under study at Duke Uni versity Medical School is the use of calf bone to replace bony defects in the face, or to fill in defects caused by re moval of cysts in upper or lower jaw and in skull defects resulting from operations. Expert Lists Tips On Accident Prevention New York -(UPD- If accidents happen in your kitchen, you may want to heed these tips on kitchen . safety suggested by Employees Mutual Acci dent prevention specialists. Keep handles of pots and pans turned away from, the edge of the range and out of reach of children. Use flat bottomed utensils that do not tip easily. Control the temperature of hot fat. Put out a grease fire by covering pan or sprinkling it with baking soda or salt. Study directions for using steam equipment such as pres sure cookers before trying them. Keep openings clean in pressure release valves. ' Fol low usage instructions exact ly. Protect fingers when using slicers, choppers, grinders. Never force food down a grinder. If candles are used on the table, light them just before the meal is ready and put them out right after. Don't use candles near curtains. f Using the Noodles New York (UPD Exotic noodles pep up a dull menu, tieat l tablespoons olive or salad oil with i .cup butter or margarine. Add 8 ounces (about 4 cups) cooked fine egg noodles, i cup chopped onions and 1 garlic clove, finely chopped. Cook over medium heat, string constantly, until noodles are lightly browned and onions are tender. Add 2V2 cups chicken bouil Ion, 1 cup light cream, and 1 package (10 - ounce) frozen peas. Cover and cook until noodles are tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper. "Pink Heather," a new alyssum is one of the All-America Selections for 1959. The first end only pink alyssum, this new color in an old favorite flower has proven in tests to be an easy-io-grow flower for edging borders, walks and flower beds. Alyssum Is Award Winner . A new alyssum "Pink Heather" in one of the AU American Selection introduc tions for 1959 according to an announcement from Harris burg, Pa. The All -American selections are sponsored by four Seedmen's association in the United States and dozens of new flowers and vegetable varieties are entered in the competition each year. The 1959 winning alyssum is the Gem, or mounded type. The color 1 s heather pmK, deep in tone in cool weather or normal mid-summer, turn ing to deeper pink towards fall. All-America reports that Pink Heather makes a splen did, uniform edging, is free flowering over a long season and is an easy flower to grow. It does well in almost any soil, and may be seeded di rectly in its desired location. Sweet alyssum has been a garden favorite for years, plant breeders have developed more useful and colorful vari eties, showing a solid blanket of blooms of only 2 or J men- es height with a spread of a foot or more per plant, to others of 4 to 6 inches with neatly mounded plants. Lilac coloring was the first addition to the whites. This progressed to violet in Violet Gem of the 5 to 6 inch types, and finally the All-America winning violet Royal Carpet with dwarf est habit of growth. Flowers and vegetables en tered in the All-America com petition are tried out in 26 locttions for flowers and 23 trial plots for new vegetables Resident judges have two years in which to compare the entries with the nearest similar kinds already in com merce, to score and evaluate and to comment on each one, - 4 r Home Economics Said Asset for Older Women United Press International New York -(UPD The older woman will find her years an asset in the field of home eco nomics, says Barbara Hall, home economist for the Con tinental Can Co. "A more mature woman knows what she wants and is willing to accept any assign ment," Miss Hall said in an interview. "There are few prima donna jobs open in food technology, and an older wom an's experience -helps her do a better job." This is true, Miss Hall said, whether evaluating new food containers from a woman's viewpoint, writing package la bels, testing products in a va riety of containers, develop ing recipes or taste-testing. r When it comes to taste- test ing, however, there's no such thing as a feminine advantage. "We've found that men and women are equally good tast ers," she said. "Contrary to popular belief, smokers' taste buds are not harmed by use of tobacco. Some experts can smoke right up to tasting time without affecting their judgment as long as they do not smoke during the tast ing session." 4 Figs and Cake Soft dried figs make a won derful addition to quick cof fee cakes. Use the recipe on bisquick mix package, adding small pieces of figs and a lit tie grated orange rind to the dry ingredients. If figs are not soft as they come from the package, boil about 5 minutes in water to cover before cut ting. Serve warm squares of coffee cake for breakfast. Re heat remainder for a break fast treat.
