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.

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

reported encouraging results in at

Heart Assn., said that 65 to 70
per cent of the men who suffer a

such as President Elsenhower has
had can "return to their original
occupation." But he said they must
live and work "in moderation."
