In the Day's News
Denver - UPI) - William
Grigsby, who for three weeks
survived a precedent stccing
operation to give him a new
liver, lost a battle with pneu
monia Monday night and died.
The 47 - year - old Denver
County Jail janilor was the
first human to live through a
delicate liver transplanting,
patterned after a scries of suc
cessful kidney transplants at
Denver in recent months. His
doctors had hoped he would
continue to improve, but he
contracted pneumonia last
week end in his sterilized
room at the Veterans Admin
istration hospital.
An autopsy was ordered,
and the results were expected
today. One of the surgeons
involved In the case said the
cause of death was not deter
mined definitely, "but as near
as we can tell, it was pneu
monia." Transplant Successful
He said Grigsby was hav
ing no trouble wilh the liver,
but had been "deteriorating"
for 24 hours before his death,
which occurred about mid
night. "Technical aspects of the
transplant were entirely suc
cessful," the surgeon said.
"More liver transplants will
be tried. There are certainly
plenty of people who need
them."
Grigsby was dying of can
cer, which had destroyed a
third of his liver, when doc
tors at the hospital suggested
the transplant. He agreed
readily and the operation was
performed May 5. Another
patient who had an incurable
brain tumor volunteered to
donate his liver, and it was
taken out moments after he
died and placed in Grigsby's
body.

A research report issued
recently by the American
Cancer Society contains this
paragraph:
"Cigarettes, along with
substances in the air and in
food, contain agents which
can produce cancer in certain
experimental animals. These
agents are known as carcino
gens." the report then adds:
"CITY AIR supports car
cinogens too. Dr. Paul Colin
of the National Cancer Insti
tute, has poduced genuine
lung tumors in mice by first
infecting them with flu and
then subjecting them to sim
ulated CITY SMOG."
This osteoporosis, deriving
its name from two Greek
words, causes POROUS bones
that break easily especial
ly from a bad fall.
WORDS are indeed interest
ing Innls.
They help to describe ac
curately the interesting things
that are going on in this fas
cinating modern world
which is finding the answers
to so many of the problems
that troubled the ancient
world.

Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF-
ATOWN IN SOUTH DAKOTA was in the process of elect
ing a new mayor and board of advisors, and Mrs. Hub
bard thought it would be educational to take her seven-
year-old daughter with
her to the polling booth.
On the way home the
daughter asked, "Mom,
do you always vote for
the men you love most?"
"Whatever put an idea
like that in your mind?"
wondered Mrs. Hubbard.
"Well," said the daughter,
"I saw you put kisses
next to their names."

THE MORAL?
It seems to be this:
Both cigarette smoking and
living in big cities are BAD
HABITS to be avoided, if
possible.
QUESTION:
What's a carcinogen?
Webster says it is "any sub
stance that produces cancer."
HERE DOES this word
carcinogen" come from?
It comes from the Greek
KARKINOMA, a cancer.
Where does karkinoma
come from?
It comes from the Greek
KARKINOS meaning a
crab.
Words are interesting
things, aren't they?
INCIDENTALLY,
A word has
a new
just come into
the news.
it is OSTEOPOROSIS.
It was used the other day
in Chicago by Frederick J.
Stare, of the Harvard Uni
versity school of Public
Health. He was addressing the
Illinois State Medical Society.
He told his hearers:
"Usually we think of fluori
dation merely as a preven
tive for tooth decay in t h e
young. But, while it is far
too late for fluoridated water
to do the elderly any good
in the prevention of tooth de
cay, it is a great help in of
fering them another impor
tant type of protection.
"Fluoridation will prove
most helpful to those who suf
fer from OSTEOPOROSIS,
WHICH CAUSES BONES TO
BREAK from routine falls.
Seventy - five per cent of the
nation's aged suffer from this
disease."
He then added:
"Proper amounts of fluorl
dation taken through water
supplies OR AS A SEPA
RATE SUPPLEMENT help
to prevent brittle bones for
persons over 60 years of age.

" tion, where does this word
OSTEOPOROSIS come from?
It derives from the Greek
OSTEON, meaning bone, and
the Greek POROS, meaning
"passage." It is described by
Webster as "an absorption re
suiting in an abnormally por
ous tissue."
1I10ST of us think of tissue
as fleshy tissue. Webster,
however, defines it thus: "an
aggregate of cells, with their
inter-cellular substance, form,
ine one of the structural ma
terials of a plant or animal."

It returned to the House

representation that we have
witnessed, part icularly in
Eastern Oregon, in the sale
of subdivisions." He said all
parties involved, including
the real estate industry, have
accepted the Senate version
The subdivision bill would
require developers to file no
tice of their plans with the
state real estate commission

If he thought it necessary
the commissioner then could
make an investigation or re

The measure also includes
sections aimed at false adver
tising, conditions regulating
