t Doctors Can Know Nitroglycerin Role Inside Human Heart Delos Smitb By DELOS SMITH " UPI Science Editor . New York -(UPS- Every doc tor knows nitroglycerin can do big things inside human hearts. But now, for the first time, all doctors can know just how this working s? chemical com- pound of dy- namite does them. ' This news from inside human hearts be longs to Drs. Norman Brach feld, John Bozer, and Richard Gorlin who got it by running instrumented tubes through arteries and into hearts. The technique is quite safe, relatively new, and is piling up more and more inside knowledge of the most pub licized and sentimentalized of our organs. The hearts belonged to 10 men. Four were normal and the other six had only minor defects. Once the tiny-diameter tubes were in place, the men let a nitroglycerin pill dissolve under their tongues. Offer Less Resistance Almost immediately their heart muscles began taking more oxygen out of the blood. The flow of blood through the hearts increased and the scientists "presumed" this was caused by the increased oxy gen consumption. At the same time, the heart blood vessels enlarged and thus offered less resistance to the flow. of blood. But the work rates of the hearts re mained unchanged which meant the work was done less efficiently. Nitroglycerin is one of the most commonly prescribed heart medicines. It relieves the choking sensation of an g i n a or "coronary insuffic iency" and the crises of very high blood pressure so quickly that persons given to those conditions carry the pills with them, just in case. But for such a widely used About three-fourths of the states engage in growing to bacco crops. medicine, very i ti 1 e was known 'about how it worked. The scientists, who work at Harvard Medical School and the U. S. Navy hospital at Portsmouth, N. H. were the first to study nitroglycerin in its direct impact on human hearts. .. ' Stretches Blood Vessels Since its effect on the heart was discovered in 1867, it has been classed as a stretcher of heart blood vessels, and that it is, of course. However, Brachfeld, Bozer and Gorlin showed this was a secondary, effect and its big effect was to increase oxygen use by the heart muscle. From the medical x stand point the importance of this was the demonstration that nitroglycerin is not "a pure dilator of heart blood vessels, because "a pure dilator" would enlarge the, . arteries without changing the heart's rate of using oxygen. Under many circumstances, tnat's a useful thing for doctors to know. Previous studies were han dicapped by less exact meth ods and the necessity of using animal rather than human hearts. As a result, their find ings were often contradictory. And so the picture was any thing but clear and many un supported assumptions were being made as to what nitro glycerin didn't and did do in side hearts. The scientists re ported their clearing of the picture to a technical organ of the American Heart associ ation. ' Centennial Offers Son ething-forrEveryone. MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford Or.

Wayne Dailard, Exposition executive producer, said he also expects to sign Lawrence Welk and Fred Waring. In addition to hundreds of commercial exhibits, ranging from a $160,000 exhibition home to a vast General Mo tors exhibit, there will be doz ens of educational shows. International Garden Along with an International Garden of Tomorrow, contain ing 5000 of the newest rose hybrids and thousands of rare and exotic plants shipped from around the world, there will be an atomic energy ex hibit, a Frontier Village, an Adventureland and a Gayway of rides. Through Adventureland will be a narrow gauge rail road, over which will run three full trains, one a model of a mid-1 9th century steam train. A new expanded-shale wall, built of blocks designed for the Centennial, , will enclose Adventureland. : The Exposition site is just across the Interstate Bridge from Vancouver, Wash., on Highway 99. Here is enough parking to handle 17,000 cars, plus additional space for any overflow. Special Trains Special trains will haul Centennial visitors free from the parking area to the Ex' position, a quarter of a mile away. Handling the crowds will be a police force large enough for a city of 10,000.. Firemen will be quartered on the Ex position grounds for the dur ation. " ' ' An Aqua Center, across the street from the Centennial, will be the scene this summer of the National Outboard Mo tor Boat Races. Special sight seeing trips may be made from the center and other points. Watershows are planned on the week ends. Nearby will be a Navy exhibit, along with defense department exhibits of the latest missiles and oth er modern weapons. A huge natural resources exhibit, showing off all of the PICK UP THIS WINDOW GLEAM-VP TEAM TODAY! state's built-in assets, will oc cupy a wing of the Exposition hall in a huge panoramic dis play. ; Most of the counties in Or egon, along with the state of Alaska, are planning displays to show off special features of their areas. Connecting all these points is a communication system, large enough to take care of j the telephone traffic of a city of 4,000 people. In addition special microwave towers are being erected to relay televis ion shows, such as the Art Linkletter's Hpuse Party that will originate, at the Exposi tion for a week .during the summer.- . In order to coordinate all of the hundreds of events, spec ial information centers have been set up around the state on the main highways enter ing Oregon. Oregon expects 6 to 8 mil lion visitors this summer. Housing them will be a gigan tic job. A housing information center has been set up in Port land. When hotels, motels and trailers are filled, some 5,000 private homes will be made available for the overnight guests. v Spend Two Days It is estimated that an aver age family will need to spend more than two days just look ing at all of the exhibits at the Exposition and Interna tional Trade Fair in Portland. Downstate, each county and more than 165 cities have special Centennial committees who have completed programs ranging from gold panning expeditions to rebuilding the business district as a replica of the Old West. . A state co ordinator who handles all of these activities estimates that $2 million in directly raised funds or donations has been spent on .local celebrations outside the Exposition in Portland. Centennial commission e r s estimated the Portland Expo sition value at $20 million, in cluding the value of the 11- acre livestock Exposition hall that was renovated at state expense and leased from non-profit group. History nas not Been ne glected. Most communities have marked historical sites never before posted with signs. Every classroom is Or egon - an estimated 18,000 - received a special Centennial lesson plan kit to help teach ers put over the story of the state. Three special plays about Oregon's history have been written and distributed for classrooms. Schools Set Up Schools have been set up by restaurant owners, motel op erators, police forces and taxi firms to teach their employees more about the , history and facts of Oregon so they may- intelligently answer tourist questions. Most major magazines have run special features on either Oregon history or the Centen nial. Thousands of stories have been published by the nation's leading newspapers. Special radio programs have gone out over the country's networks. Outdoor advertis ing has been used extensively. The latest publicity stunt is the trek of a wagon train that began a 100-day journey from Independence, Mo., his toric starting place of the Oregon Trail, to Indepen dence, Ore. Advertising Budget Overlaying all the public ity, is a quarter of a million dollar Centennial advertising budget for ads in national publications. This is in addi tion to advertising done by the State highway department and private firms. All this effort has not come easily. Oregon had no one with experience in putting on a- Centennial. Persons were hired from other areas who had taken part in various ex positions and trade fairs. As in all such undertakings, there have been disputes, dis agreements and shifting of personnel. But now the big jobs are done. All that re mains are hundreds of details, being handled on a daily basis by a management committee of the Centennial commission and by a staff of some 507 employed Centennial workers and planners. "(John Snider, Medford mayor and a com missioner, is a member of the management committee.) ' Construction phase of the Exposition, now running ahead of schedule, will finish by May 15, when exhibitors will start moving in displays already designed and a build ing for erection at the Ex position. A huge mural, covering some 500 feet of the face of the Centennial building, will be erected June 1. It, along with five major sculpture .pieces, is being done by pro I fessiona) artist under direc tion . of architects who have planned the Centennial lay out. The commission has let con tracts for concessions with an eye toward holding down prices. Also special effort is being made to provide rest areas for the Exposition vistors. You'll Like...

"V, Why is the printed word - so important in advertising? ONE OF A SERIES ANSWER: THE DAILY NEWSPAPER IS THE GREAT EST ADVERTISING MEDIUM for many reasons. One of them is that it carries the power of the printed word. People believe in a message that is permanent; one that is written. They understand it better. Also, the newspaper because of its permanence lets the reader choose his own time for absorbing the message. And once put down it can always be picked up again. The message that lives is the message that is written in the newspaper. MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE
