SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23. 1955 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE SEVEN t ... WW pf' if RALPH WHITE, operations foreman of Carlson Construction Company, handles the boom truck winch to hoist one of the last 537 poles of the 69 kv transmission line into place to bring rural electrification to north Lake County. The new 150-mile system will be energiied follow ing dedication ceremonies Friday, October 28, at Silver Lake. Power Line Vcrk Pushed PORT ROCK Work by Carl son Construction Company on the power transmission line from La Pine to Fort Rock for Midstate Electric Cooperative is nearing completion. Wire stringing was within live miles of the Fort Rock substation last week. Hard digging and the loss by fire on September 5 of the com pany's two-ton truck equipped with a swinging boom kept the company from finishing well ahead of the deadline, accoring to Ralph White, operations foreman. Of a total of 537 poles' for. the distributive system, holes 'for 300 required more than 60 sticks of dynamite on the average, one hole required more 'han 60 sticks. Sand layers gave trouble, also. White said, often making a second blast' Ing necessary. "l,osing the truck slowed things down." White said, "and there Is no replacement available. Distri buting poles was much faster and Cole-setting much easier with the swinging boom since a 45-foot pole weighs about 1.300 pounds." No injuries have occurred on the job and, according to White, the company has an accident-free record for the past three or four years with no lost time because of personal Injuries. The Cyclone Fence Company of Portland Is erecting a fence around the'substation this week.

Virginia Parker News Reporter effect, "borrows" the heart and lungs of a donor lying alongside dim In the operating room. Tie method was developed by a Minne sota team. The idea of the technique Is to Interconnect the blood systems "of patient and donor in such a way that the blood supply to the pa tient's heart can be cut off without endangering his life. This allows surgeons to operate within the heart in a virtually bloodless field. Dr. H. E. Warden and several colleagues said Iwo-'.hlrds of the 43 children survived and now have comDarativelv normal hearts. Most of the operations were defects In the muscular wall separating the heart's right and left chambers, They said a simple mechanical pump helps transfer blood from the patient to the nonor so that it may pick up oxygen in the donor's lungs before being returned to the patient s arteries. Of vital Importance In the devel opment of the technique, they re lated, was the fmdm that llle can be maintained during the proced ure with onlv one-emhth o one fourth the usual volume of circu lating blood. In some cases, they said, the human donor can be eliminated with use being made of reservoirs of compatible oxygen-rich blood' in stead. a , - In another report to the meet ing.
