8 HERALD AN'D NEWS. Klamath Falls. Or Frirlay. Nov. B. PAGE 9 A New Penicillin Said Versatile Against Ills WASHINGTON AP - The re cent development of synthetic penicillin may open the way to more potent drug weapons against a variety of maladies, even in cluding cancer, a scientist said to day. The possibility was raised by Dr. Henry Welch, chief of the An tibiotics Division of the Federal Food and Drug Administration, in an address prepared for the seventh annual symposium on an tibiotics. Medical scientists from the United States and 22 foreign countries are attending. Through chemical sleight-of- hand, Dr. Welch said, it might be possible to take the basic com ponent of the new man-made pen icillin and build it into innumer able substances having the safety features of penicillin but far more versatility than it has against disease germs. Experimenters already have thown that various forms of the new synthetic penicillin can be made by altering the "side-chain attached to the basic structure, Dr. Welch said. "Perhaps here we have a key that in the near future may open the door to a broad-spectrum pen icillin, to antifungal penicillins, antiviral penicillins or even to penicillins active against tumor cells by the correct manipulation of the 'guiding side chain,' " he added. Expanding in an interview, Welch said it might be possible to link the basic structure of the synthetic penicillins to certain chemical components of some of the newer and more versatile na tural antibiotics. These newer drugs, he said, at tack more and different varieties of germs than any of the penicil lins but all can produce unde sirable side effects. Conceivably, he said, the undesirable charac teristics of the newer drugs could be eliminated by linking them with the new penicillin base. A number of antibiotics hav been developed which can fight cancer cells, but most of them are far too toxic to use, Welch said. He added that if the cancer- attacking component of such drug by combination with a synthetic penicillin base, it might then be possible to give patients large quantities of such drugs without causing harm. the Tar Completes Trip To Tahiti PAPEETE, Tahiti (API-Day ton John Lalonde, 35, can't get enough of the sea.

British Wartime General Criticizes Ike WASHINGTON (AP)-Prcsidcnt Eisenhower never had a golf club in his hands from the start of the invasion of Europe until the defeat of Germany, the White House says. Eisenhower was Supreme Allied Commander in Europe at the time. In a book published Monday. Viscount Alanbrooke, wartime chief of the British general staff, criticized Eisenhower's leadership during the period before the criti cal Battle of the Bulge in Novem ber 1944. Alanbrooke wrote that there was a "very unsatisfactory state of af fairs in France with no one run ning the land battle. Eisenhower, though supposed to be doing so, was on the golf links at Rheims Neuropsychiatry Director Gives Views Of Criminals PHILADELPHIA (AP) Por trait of a criminal: Emotionally immature, aggres sive, impulsive. These are certain character traits common to almost all criminals says Dr. John G. Tor ney, a psychiatrist and director of the neuropsychiatric division of Quarter Sessions Court here. Dr. Torney has examined over 4,000 criminals since W53. "Almost all criminals are emo tionally immature," says Dr. Torney. "They approach adult situations in a childish way, "When a child wants something he cries until he gets it. When a criminal wants something, he uses whatever means, are most readily available. He is-not willing to put off satisfaction of the need until it can be done in a socially accepted way." On aggressiveness, Dr. Torney says: "Criminals have no respect for the rights of others. They think only of themselves and they often become violent when they can't have everything their own way." The third character trait, im pulsiveness, means criminals act without thinking of the ' con sequences to themselves or to others, explains Dr. Torney. Dr. Torney said that criminals behave the way they do because they have not developed the social controls necessary to avoid crime. He said that most of the time this is because of environmental in fluences the home and the school. "Sometimes the battle to instill social responsibility in a child may be lost by the time the child is nine years old," declares Dr. Torney. "In too many cases we have found that a person behaves in a criminal manner because he was allowed to grow up willful, selfish and unrestrained and not because he is insane or mentally impaired in some other way. "If we made parents do their job properly by punishing them for their failures there would be fewer criminals." entirely detached and taking practically no part in running the war." This did not say in so many words that Eisenhower was play ing golf, but it has been generally interpreted that way. Eisenhower made no reply to the charge, and at first his press secretary, James C. Hagerty, said he never would have any comment on Alanbrooke's book. But Thursday, at a While House news conference, Hagerty was told a reporter had checked into the matter and found that Eisenhower played very little golf during the war. ' Hagerty hesitated, then said: "Well, I think I can say this: Somebody has exaggerated it From the time the Allies landed in Europe until the victory was won the President didn't have golf club in his hands, much less play at a golf course." The invasion was in June 1944. and Germany surrendered the fol lowing May. Another White House official, who was with Eisenhower then, noted that both in England and France Eisenhower's headquart ers were located on ruined golf courses. The golf course at Rheims was not playable at all. Analysis Of Balloting Gives GOP Little Hope Eloise Journey To Be Probed LOS ANGELES 'API Was year-old Evelyn Itudic s cross country jet flight a runaway or a publicity stunt?

A city ordinance makes it a misdemeanor to give police a false report. offered little advance light on next year's contest for the presidency, with some exceptions they seemed to reconfirm today a situation disappointing to the GOP: The Republicans still are hurt ing politically in the cities. Their own strategists had said an urban revolt fed the Democratic con gressional landslide in 19,8. Officially, leaders of both par ties claimed the results augured well for their side. Democratic Chairman Paul M. Rutler said the elections reaf firmed what he called a mandate given his party in 1958 and dem onstrated the "vigorous good health of the Democratic party as it prepares the momentous campaign of I960." Sen. Thruston B. Morton (H-Ky), the Republican National Chair man, sized it up this way: "Modest Republican net gains in New York, New Jersey, Pennsyl vania. Massachusetts and Ohio. Roughly a stand-otf in Connecti cut. In Indiana, Republicans had a statewide gain of six mayoralties, but despite this net figure, showed net losses in cities of 25,000 and over. "In my own stale of Kentucky an expected Democratic split did not materialize and the Democrats won the election according to form.

This was interpreted generally as an indication that Rockefeller's state income tax increase was not as unpopular as the Democrats supposed. Outside of New York, however.
