San Francisco-Evangelist Billy Graham, about an eye ail ment that forced him to take a rest: "The Lord allowed this to happen to let me know I have only one calling in life-to preach the Gospel." MAIL TRIBUNE, Mtdford, Oregon, Monday, January 19, 1959 S 7W Washington-Adlai Stevenson, on this country's defensive action in the cold war: "We have reacted to countless Soviet initiatives; acted on our own initiative barely at all.

New York OJPD An expert medical opinion of what it was that permitted a man to I"" s live over 107 years is: The man was slight build; he had the habit XJ 1 -'J- of regular ex Is X. prrise and a f 7 p u uusupmiM a . t i tude to- r& i i : . J , wdiu me, buu he came of a Daloa Smith lone - lived family. The opinion is that of Dr. Paul Dudley White, Presi dent Eisenhower's heart con sultant. The man was Charley W. Thiery of Boston who died last March 16 of pneumonia, 105 years after pneumonia almost killed him when he was a babe of two. In the Day's Hews By FRANK JENKINS A Soviet scientist, quoted by Moscow radio, thinks there may be oil and gas on the moon. He has been research ing the pockmarks on the moon's face, which have long been referred to as craters, and thinks they may be exits for natural gas. This would mean, he says, that in the direct vicinity of these craters one could ex pect to find deposits of oil. HOW to get. the oil HERE where we can use it? He doesn'tgo into that. He thinks the moon's oil and gas could be used as a source of energy . on the moon itself. There are quite a few prob lems up there, you know. Among others, the moon HAS NO AIR. Air would have to be manufactured. So far as known, the moon has no water. So water would have to be manufactured. And so on. rLE Russians aren't doing all the pipe - dreaming. Americans are taking a hack at it Scientists of the Lockheed missile systems division down at Sunnyvale, in the Bay area of California, think that in maybe a decade the space art will be so advanced that man can build a laboratory some 500 miles up from the earth. How? Well, first we'd toss up a sealed compartment in which men could live. Then we'd toss up other compartments, which would be caught up there in the wild yonder by men on the first compartment -much, presumably, as a rivet- catcher on a high building catches red hot rivets tossed up to him by his assistant. These components would be put together to provide quart ers for a crew of ten scientists The cost? About two billion bucks. ' f ????? ? Wait a minute. You haven't heard anything yet. DR. JOHN LYMAN, asso ciate professor of psychol ogy and engineering at UCLA, speculates that space travel ers of the future might be QUICK FROZEN like a can of pea soup before starting on the trip to the stars. The space tourist's body, he says, could be reduced to a temperature of say minus 300 degrees until all chemical body activity has stopped. He adds: '- "At the end of a THOUS AND YEAR trip to some other world the process could be reversed, by inductive or in side heating, thus bringing the temperature back to normal and apparently leaving the spate explorer NO OLDER physically than when he start ed his trip." HMMMMM D'ya reckon man might - be getting too big , for bis britches? f I ' ft Of I 4 of Man Between those two bouts of pneumdnia; he was almost uniformly in excelent health, a fact to which While certi fied after investigating his life history. White knew him intimately from his 100th birthday onward and vouched for the mental and physical vigor of his last years. Closely Studied Rarely does a centennarian come under such expert medi cal scrutiny for so long White examined him repeat edly and occasionally "demon strated" him to medical col leagues. Thiery was closely studied in life, and there was a thorough autopsy. Thus a highly qualified per son - was enabled to pass on the reasons for the long life and good health of one per son. But White grasped this opportunity . cautiously. He qualified his opinion with "probably" and specified that his three points only "con tributed" to longevity. White noted without com ment that Thiery himself be lieved his lifelong abstinence from tobacco and alcohol was helpful. Thiery also credited his lifelong tendency toward nervous indigestion, which prevented him from ever overeating. The doctor agreed on that. ; V ' Did Bachelorhood Help? Thiery never married. White noted that he had often said his bachelorhood had nothing to do with his long evity, and to this White ap pended no comment. "By the grace of God," was one of the answers Thiery gave when asked how long he had managed to live so long. Of this White said: "Such a reason is, of course a com bination of the influence of heredity, an escape from ser ious accidents and fatal in fections, and the effect of the way of life." ' Thiery's heart was medi cally examined for the first time when he was 100. White was the examiner and found minor irregularties but the heart was of normal size and blood - pressure was normal. There was an annual heart examination thereafter which showed little or no change. If pneumonia hadn't killed Thiery, "he might haye lived another few years in twod health," White said, in report ing on his studies at a recent medical meeting. The autopsy showed only a moderate de gree of "hardening" of the heart arteries, although it re vealed that he had had the blocked-artery type of heart attack at' some unknown time. , i -'. .- - .' There were not symptoms -and he never knew 'it. The Federal government now spends more onthe pur chase of . paper towels than it did on the whole federal budget in . George Washing ton's day.
