The Neophyte, with cx steeplejack Lee Quinn and a crew of four young women aboard, dropped its sails off Oahu Sunday. Quinn radioed that he would pull into Hono lulu Harbor today. The ketch set sail from San Francisco Bay Dec. 27 after Quinn recruited the all-girl crew on the theory that fe males were more "docile" crewmen. The radio message ended nearly two weeks of silence from the Neophyte. On Jan. 1 a naval vessel encountered the ketch but no word had been heard since then. Quinn plans to pick up his wife, Mary Ann, in Honolulu, sign off his distaff crew and proceed on to the South Seas. On board during the 2,100 mile voyage, besides Quinn, were Giselle Mayer, 22; Jack ie Miller, 24; Susan Bird, 20, and Mrs. Carol Hope, 20. SECTION B PAGES 1 to 8 Medford Tribune MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, JANUARY 21, 1063 The Medical Roundup Emeritus Consultant In Me die Inn Mayo Clinic Emeritus Professor of Medicine Mayo Clinic (Register and Tribune Syndicate, 1B63) Em Endometrioid Can Caust Sterility Endometriosis is a disease of young women in which bits of the endometrium or lining m e m brane of the womb get out through the two fallopian tubes and start growing on the inner lining of the pelvic cavity, perhaps around the ovaries or on the large bowel. These little masses of dis placed cells are called choco late cysts. In many cases, they caure no trouble, but in other cases, they cause pelvic pain, irregu ular and troublesome- men struation, and an inability of the woman .to get pregnant. Treatment today usually consists of slopping ovulation for 6 months with the new drug Enovid. With this treat ment, the chocolate cysts will shrink up. On stopping the use of the drug, improvement often continues for a long time. Today, surgeons are less inclined to operate than they used to be, and especially if the woman wants a child, every effort will have to be made to avoid removing the pelvic organs. What Is Chronic Bronchitis? Several doctors from Tu lane University have recently commented on the fact that in many cases a disease that looks like chronic bronchitis is really a pulmonary em physema, a disease in which the lungs have lost much of their elasticity and hence are having difficulty in getting the air out. Also, in cases of emphysema thousands ct the tiny air sacs in the lungs arc so damaged by disease that they do not do a good job of arcating the blood.' In the last few years we physicians have become more and more alert in diagnoring emphy sema. By chronic bronchitis, phy sicians mean an inflammation of the inner linning of. the bronchi, or the tubes that car ry air into and out of the lungs. There is -often sortie over-secretion of the tiny glands that keep the lining of the bronchi moist, and this leads to the formation of sputum. The patient is likely to have repeated attacks of coughing, associated perhaps with mod erate amounts of whitish spu tum. These persons are prone to get "colds, when they may have some thick or yel lowish or greenish sputum that has pug in it. These peo ple arc likely also to have their bronchi irritated by sub stances that pollute the at mosphere, like smog. They can be much injured also by cigarette smoke. Not Enough Blood When shortness of breath occurs, one fears that cither the airways are .getting nar rowed, or many of the alveo lae (air-sacs) are being de stroyed, or there is not enough blood flowing through the tiny arteries that line the air- sacs in the lungs. When all the patient has is X-ray examination of the chest is likely to show nothing abnormal; but if there is much emphysema, thj X-ray man will note, first, ' the lungs are too full of air; also, perhaps, that the midriff, or diaphragm, is lower than it should be. This is because the inelastic lungs remain ex panded; they do not contract well to force the air out. In cases .of chronic bron chitis, "bronchograms"-which give a picture of the "bron chial tree - can be made by first injecting some material, through the throat into the bronchi, and then making X-ray films. These will show if there is much bronchiecta sis - a disease in which some of the bronchi are dilated and perhaps full of pus. Because X-ray studies will not' show the earlier changes produced by chronic bron chitis and emphysema, in or der to detect these, a specialist in lung diseases may h-ve to use tests of lung function. He can determine the lung vol ume, the degree of so-called ventilation of the lungs, and the degrees of distribution and diffusion of the gapes in the lung. Unfortunately, these tests have to be made by experts using special instruments, and hence they are not available in all cities. Much study is needed in this field.

Eugene-IUPll-Tho office of President Arthur S. Flemming of the University of Oregon said Sunday that any frater nity at the school found guilty of hazing its pledges will be closed for one year unless there were extenuating cir cumstances. "Any fraternity that has en gaged in hazing activities in connection with its initaton ccremones has violated a pol icy of the University of Ore gon," the office said in a pre pared policy statement. The office said that any ac tion taken would depend upon the findings of an investiga tion into hazing by Donald DuShanc, dean of students at the university. The investiga tion began following a meet ing of the school's interfra-, ternity council tribunal Thurs day night to look into charges of hazing against three frater nities. "There is no place on the University of Oregon campus for any group that engages in hazing practices and thereby demonstrates its utter lack of concern for the dignity, worth and wcllbcing of individuals," the statement added. The office said that frater nities found guilty would be closed for one year beginning March 251 Truman Making Rapid Recovery ' Kansas City, Mo.-IUril-Form-cr President Harry Truman, 78, recovering rapidly from a hernia operation, was report ed in satisfactory condition today at Research Hospital. .The former president, who underwent a two-hour opera lion Friday, bounced back quickly.
