OREGON nnnnn U5CDCAR5 BP """-" "v Tool find it' a breeze to pohr Science Trying To Learn How To Speed Healing By DELOS SMITH NEW YORK (UPD- The pos- tibility of science learning how to shift the gears (so to speak) in the body chemistry of an injured person in order to speed the heal ing of his wounds has been raised by experiments with "growth chemical of cows in the bodies of white rats. This chemical, a "hormone, In abundance in the infancy and youth of all animals and people, It keeps the pertinent body chenv Istry geared to the business of providing chemical building blocks without which the tissues and organs could not expand in growth. When full growth is ac complished, the hormone goes into short supply and the high gear is disengaged. Presumably these building blocks are urgently needed by wounds and the more the chem istry provides, the faster Ihey heal. So Dr. John F. Prudden, Genlaro Nishihara, and Lourdes Ocampo of Columbia University's College of Physicians and Sur geons put it to the test. They took 168 rats which were almost identical as to strain, age, and weight. One half of them were injected daily with cows' growth hormone and this was be lieved to have made them young again in stepped-up supplies of building blocks. A long surgical wound was made along the belly of each rat Seven days were allowed for the healing process to lake its course, and then all the wounds were tested to determine the ten sile strength of the new tissue which was knitting the two sides of the cuts together. The tensile strength in the wounds of all the treated rals was greater than that in the wounds of the paired controls. On the average it was 8.8 per cent greater which showed these wounds were healing that much faster. This the scientists took as a clear demonstration that they had shifted rat chemistry over to speedy tissue-building. At this stage, the experiment can't be tried in people because cow growth hormone seems to be inactive In them. However, Prud den and his associates, in report ing to the American College of burgeons, said they had reason to believe that It would be' active if larger doses were injected into them. Larger doses could mean peril, and they said they were still engaged in preliminary stud ies. The chemistry involved is that of nutrition. It has two sides. One tears down your food into its very basic chemicals, amino acids and such. The other side takes those basic chemicals, or "building blocks," and makes new cells and tissues with them Growth hormone is one of the many body-regulating chemicals manufactured by the pituitary gland. Ultimatum Given Board ST. LOUIS fAP-A federal ap peals court directed today that the Little Rock school board take positive steps to accomplish inte gration of the Little Rock School District. The court did not spell out how this shall be done. Instead the three-judge division of the U.S. Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals left this up lo Arkan sas District Judge John E. Miller and the school board itself. The court assailed Arkansas Gov. Orval E. Faubus and the Ar kansas State Legislature for their efforts to use public school build ings for segregated schools through the Little Rock Private School Corp. The appellate court directed Judge Miller to issue an injunc tion against the use of the public school buildings for this purpose. The court said the U.S. Supreme Court already has made clear that the constitutional rights of Negro children cannot be nullified by state executive, legislative or judicial officers "through evasive schemes for segregation. It was not clear what effect the appeals court opinion will have on a private senior high school oper ated in Little Rock in a building purchased from the University of Arkansas. This school is operated with funds from private contributions. The three judges who handed down the unanimous opinion today are M. C. Matthes of St. Louis and Harvey M. Johnsen and Jo seph W. Woodrough, both of Oma ha, Neb. Rightists For Integration Seeking Seats In France Police Note Vandalism Two cases of forced entry into unoccupied cars were reported to city police over the weekend, as well as two instances of window breaking. ; McKinley Baker, Baldwin Hotel, reported Saturday morning that he discovered nis car, wmcn nad been parked during the night on the hotel's parking lot, with its door handles twisted, and right front window and wing window shattered. Contents of the car had been ransacked, but apparently nothing was taken. Sunday morning, C. B. Gorsch summoned police when he discov ered that a wing window had been broken out of his car during the night, apparently an act of van dalism committed with a chain and padlock. The car was parked by his home, 646 California Ave nue, when the incident occurred; apparently nothing was stolen. Carl Younger reported Saturday that windows at his home, 213 Washington Street, had been bro ken by rocks during his absence that afternoon. On Monday morning. Calhoun's Floor Coverings. 357 East Main Street, also had a window broken, apparently by a whiskey bottle thrown from a passing car just before 2 o'clock. ' ALGIERS (AP-Righlist favor-' ing integration with France make up the vast majority of those run ning for 70 seats In the French Parliament from Algeria and the Sahara. There is no sign that any parly or candidate seeking inde pendence for Algeria is contesting the election. A last minute rush before the deadline Sunday midnight wound up with' 5S party lists filed from Algeria's 18 election districts. Unofficial tabulations early In day showed total of 190 candi dates 131 Moslems and 59 Europeans. Police Hold Oakland Man OAKLAND (UPP -Police held Harold Stearman, 46, on a mur der charge today lor a shooting fpree that resulted in the death of his estranged wife. Fatally wounded In the shooting Sunday night was Marie Stear man, 44, who had recently separ ated from her husband and was planning lo move to Phoenix. Mrs. Stearman was attending a family party in her honor at the home of her sister, Mrs. Hita rcr retti, when Sterman arrived and demanded that she leave with him. She refused. Stearman then shot hrr through the head with a .38 caliber pistol, police said. Her brother, Albert Tracy, 4(i. rushed lo protect her and was felled by a bullet which truck him in the chest. He was in critical condition. Police arrested Stearman a few minutes after the shooting at a liquor store, where he had just bought a bottle of wine. Commies Insist Troops Leave TOKYO AP - Red China in sisted acain today that United Nations troops be withdrawn from South Korea and that the north and south be united through neutral-supervised elections. t The demand was contained in a rote from Red China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Rntijh charge d'affaires office in Pciping. It was broadcast by Peiping radio. "The Chinese People's volun teers , have already completely withdrawn from Kores," the note said. Sell pups of other pets In a hur ry to lilt buyers. Dial TU 4-alu and place your Classified ad now. The last day of registration started slowly. Up to noon only nine party lists were turned in and 31 were filed between 9 p.m. and midnight. Seventy deputies will be named lo the French National Assembly in Paris in the elections Nov. 28- 30. Algeria proper will have 67 and 3 will be from the Sahara, which is administerad separately. The proportion of Moslems to he elected has been fixed by law at two-thirds of the total. This will mean 46 Moslems will be sent to Paris, 44 from Algeria and 2 from the Sahara. A preliminary check of the can didates whose backgrounds are known, and of the names on the party lists, showed the dominant tendency was rightwing and fa vorable to the integration of France with Algeria. Most of the parties were never heard of until the last few days. The majority of the candidates, especially the Moslems, are total ly unknown outside their own areas. Most of the party lists had titles which tied them to the rightwing Algerian Public Safety Committee movement which sparked the re bellion last May and helped push Gen. Charles de Gaulle back to power. It was only in the last hours before midnight that it became clear there would be a large enough number of party lists to make the election at least off! cially valid. There had to be at district for a valid contest. Only in two voting districts. Orleans- ville and Tiii Ouiou, were single lists entered. In a directive Oct. 9, Premier de Gaulle specified that "all tend encies" must be able to express themselves in the election. Later this was Interpreted officially to exclude the Communist party and the Algerian National Liberation Front iFL.Ni. The FLN is the power behind Algeria's 4-year-old rebellion. Hut his desire for a hotly con tested campaign to get a true rep resentalion tor Moslems seemed to he doomed. Moslems make up ! per cent of Algeria s four mil' lion voters. The registration period showed a general Moslem reluctance to get involved in the election. Some Europeans here have termed the elections a farce. WOUND REBEL LEADER BONN, Germany (UPD Amei in Ait Ahrene, spokesman for the Algerian rebel government, was shot and seriously wounded Wednesday in an assassination at tempt outside the Tunisian Em bassy here. Eddie, Liz Plan To Wed NEW YORK fAP - Actress Elizabeth Taylor plans to marry singer Eddie Fisher within a month, the New York Post said today in a dispatch from Hollywood. "That comes from the best of sources," said the story by Sid ney Skolsky. "Ever since Eddie's September breakup with Debbie Reynolds, he and Liz have been practically in separable. Skolsky wrote. He s always over at her house, and the crowd that travels with him is of ten there, too." 1 He added that Fisher may seek a quick divorce in Mexico. "Lawyers for both are working to effect a settlement,. and Debbie is not playing hard to get along with." Skolsky said. "In fact, it looks as if Debbie has some plans of her own and is as anxious as Eddie to get the divorce." Theft Oddity Noted By Police Oddest theft of the weekend re ported to city police took place at Lee's Drive In, early Sunday. A man and a woman, both described as being "pretty drunk." took off immediately after having been served by a car hop, and the es tablishment was minus the coffee, cups, spoons, sugar glass and tray Fortunately, police said, neither used cream. Otherwise, automobile own ers were the principal sufferers from the light fingered members of the community over the week end. Hubcaps were reported stol en from a car at 429 South Sev enth Street Saturday morning, and from another vehicle, belonging to Dean Gordy, 4405 Bishce street which was parked in Ihe Alameda MonClair section during Saturday night's football game. Saturday morning Robert Ford. 1132 Eldo rado Avenue, reported a tire and wheel had been stolen from his car parked by his house. Three Hunters Pay $25 Fines TULELAKE Three California hunters paid $25 fines each on their recent appearance before Judge Victoria Thaler in justice court here. Danile Slade Frost and Richard George Miletich, both of .Moun tain View, entered pleas of guilty I to shooting waterfowl after legal closing hours and paid $25 fines. Leon Howard, Marin City, was apprehended by U.S. game man agement agents and California game wardens and charged with hunting waterfowl with a shotgun capable of holding more than three shells. He, also, paid a $25 line. Army Pushes Orb Testing CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP The Army pushed ahead with plans for ;'s first moon rocket launching today after the latest Air Force attempt fell far short of success. Maj. Gen. John B. Medaris, Army missile chief, said so far the Army is on schedule. Some of the equipment needed to blast a satellite around the moon al ready has been shipped to the cape. If all goes well, the Army prob ably will make the first of its two attempts about Dec. 5 when the planes of earth and moon again are in the best position. The Air Force has had three tries and came closest on Oct. 11 when Pioneer I traveled an un precedented 79,000 miles through space. Air Force missilcmen pored over flight performance data to determine what caused a power failure in the third stage of the Pioneer II rocket early Saturday morning. Instead of firing a satellite about 220,000 miles to the moon. the rocket fizzled at an altitude of 1,000 miles and disintegrated in the earth's atmosphere. Big Auction Sale Viewed NEW" YORK (UPO ,The auctioneer who presided over the biggest sale of paintings in U. S. art history is polishing up his gav el for another sale that may break the world art auction record. When hotelman Arnold Kirkc- by's collection of 29 oils by French modern masters is sold at the Parke-Bernet galleries here Nov. 19, Louis J. Marion will be doing his best to coax theobids above a 2 million dollar total. He says the auction fever is running high. Marion auctioneered the $1,708,- 530 Georges Lurcy sale of 65 French paintings at Parke-Bernet two years ago and set a new American record. The world rec ord for an auction of oils was set in London Oct. 15 when collectors paid $2,186,800 for seven French paintings from the Jakob Gold- schmidt collection. Jovial Lou Marion, 50, isn't making any personal predictions although he is a top appraiser who has evaluated such collections as those of J. P. Morgan and King Farouk during a career with Parke-Bcrnct that began when he was 16. "The Kirkeby sale will be on the highest level of excitement," said the red-haired auctioneer. "Every painting is of the first quality, and this wasn't true of Ihe Lurcy sale. It's really going to test my mettle. I won't be able to let down for a minute."
