Drug Fails,
Girl Dies
Of Cancer
ROCKFORD, III. lUPH
j Diane Lindstrom, 18, who
; spurned a leg amputation to
.' stake her life on the controvor-
sial drug krebiozen, died Mon-
day night of bone cancer.
Miss Lindstrom lost her ycar
J long battle against a malignant
tumor of the right thigh at
J Rockford Memorial Hospital.
She had been in the' hospital
J about six weeks.
. Last March, the pretty high
: school coed faced a terrifying
? decision either have her leg
! amputated or face the risk of
dying before she reached her
; 23rd birthday.
Her family physician, Dr.
: Robert E. Heerins, who first
detected the tumor last Janu
I arv, said Plie cancer was "se-
vere" and urged her to have
the operation.
Two days before the sched
; u led amputation, Diane called
! it off. She said she would ra-
ther die than have her leg am-
.putated.
Missile Goes On Wild Ride,
Valuable Nose Cone Lost
CAPE CANAVERAL (UPH
, Ocean - spanning rockets have
been flying for seven years, but
they still occasionally run afoul
of accidents some of them bor
: dering on the unforgettable.
" An advanced - model Atlas
missile that started off on a
rather "routine" flight sudden-
ly went haywire at Che edge
-. of space Monday night, and ru
ined a multi-miHion-doIlar test
'. for a new nose cone and pack-
ages of scientific experiments.
In the process, the silvery gi
; ant treated observers to a
r space show spectacular in widc-
screen proportions. This one
probably will be remembered
j alongside a Saturn "super -
booster" that dumped 95 spark
'. ling tons of .water in space and
a Polaris missile that landed in
". a river near Cape Canaveral.
The 82-foot Atlas, an "F-mod-i
el" gcncratinkSRD.OOO pounds of
t!hrust, made a normal blast-off
" and appeared to be flying in
- fine style toward a target 5.000
miles away until its "oul-
board" booster engines dropped
c away.
The booster separation was
1 planned, but what happened af

i. Atlas suddenly began tumbling
end over end, wildly out of con
S'trol. " Abruptly, the normally serene
ionosphere at (lie top of earth's
Y atmosphere was turned topsy
. turvy. Churned by both the
speed and the heat of the high
flying Atlas, the rarefied gases
boiled up and sent luminescent
ripples soaring across scores of
miles.
The turbulent display flared
again and again, like bluish
mud frothing from a warm gey
ser, earh time the Atlas made
one tumble about one every

He also challenged President
Kennedy to say if solicitation
of funds from such sources by
cabinet or sub-cabinet officials
would be condoned.
A spokesman for Wirtz said
the labor secretary did not in
tend to withdraw and would at

had screened the invitation list
in advance to make sure that
Treatment Of 'Bursitis"
Rapped By N.Y. Surgeon
SAN FRANCISCO tUPli - A
New York surgeon called upon
his medical colleagues today to
junk the term "bursitis" as a
diagnostic tool in the treatment
of sore shoulders.
"The word 'bursitis' as it's
commonly used," said Dr. Har
rison L. McLaughlin, "is the
most harmful factor in the
treatment of sore shoulders.
Bursitis is merely a symptom of
some primary cause."
Also, McLaughlin said, the
overwhelmingly common pri
mary cause of the sore shoul
ders so often found among middle-aged
Americans is a small
calcium deposit that almost al
ways will go away if you leave
it alone.
McLaughlin, a professor of
orthopedic surgery at the Pres
byterian Medical Center in New
York, discussed shoulder ail
ments at a press briefing at the
49th annual clinical congress of
the American College of Sur
geons. About 11,000 fellows of
(he college surgeons from (he
three seconds. Then, it was
gone covered in blackness
when Hie rocket exhausted its
fuel.
Bits and pieces of the errant
rocket tumbled into the Atlan
tic Ocean off Florida's cast
coast, well short of its planned
target area near Ascension Is
land, off the west coast of
Africa.
The Air (Force was at a loss
to explain what happened.
The mishap cost scientists
and technicians the nose cone
and the packages of measuring
devices, all of w hich they had
intended to recover.
no labor leaders, government
employes, registered lobbyists
listed in the Congressional Rec
ord or trade association offi
cials were being solicited.
John Sharon, Washington law yer
who is chairman of the re
ception, said that he and J. Ed
ward Day, former postmaster
general, screened the list care
fully to omit anyone "we knew
to have a matter currently be
fore the senator's committees
or Hie labor department."
Sharon said in an interview
United States and 79 foreign
countries are in San Francisco
(his week for the congress, (lie
world's largest of its type.
McLaughlin said the ailment
commonly known as bursitis
can be caused by many things
injury to tendons, infection,
gout, rheumatoid arthritis, tu
mor or tlte mysterious spontan
eous stiffening known as frozen
shoulder.
But usually, he said, it is
caused by painfully inflamed
calcium deposits on the tendons
betw een the shoulder socket and
the top of the arm. This ail
ment is exceedingly common
among those over 60.

Contributors to Williams' 1958
campaign and Sew Jersey Gov.
Richard Hughes' 1961 election
fund and a "group of people

Cut In Half
The list o! a "couple thou

to about "900 or 1.000" by elim
inating lobbyisfs, trade associa
tion officials and those with
business pending beSovc Wil
liams' Senate committees or the
department, he said.
Sharon said there was "ab
solutely" no intention to solicit
funds from lobbyists or trade
groups, but he added: "If wc
made mistakes, we've made
mistakes." He declined to make
the guest list public because
"it's not fair to the people who
have contributed or arc being
asked to ccmribute."
Bolton charged last Wednes
day that Wirtz tut a "new low"
in Kennedy administration tech
niques for raising political
funds. Bolton's office, however,
declined to make public the
names of lobbyists or trade as
sociation representatives he ac
cused Wirtz of soliciting for do
nations. He said disclosure of
the names could be "embar
rassing" to those invited.
LAST OF THE POSSE The onfy survivors of the posse
that ran down the Indians involved in Ihe LiWle High
Rock massacre east of Eagleville in 1911 met recently
to autograph ihe book, "Frozen &rais," written by Ken
neth Scott, former Eaqle ville resident. The book is an
account of the massacre of four Eagleville ranchers in
the winter oi 1911 and the subsequent chase io find
the renegade Indians responsible for the slaughter. Both
Charlie Demick, left, and O. D, Van Norman, n'gfif,
served on the posse from the time the search began for
the missing ranchers to the time of the gun battle and
capture of ihe Indians.
Selling 61 Home Doesn't
Relieve Vet Of Liability
Merely selling his GI home
docs not relieve Ihe veteran of
his liability to the Veterans .Ad
ministration, U. J. Novotny,
manager of the Portland VA
Regional Office, said recently.
Too alien veterans who have
sold their federal GI homes
learn later that the buyer has
defaulted on the loan, the mort
gage has been foreclosed, a de
ficiency resulted and they are
liable to VA for payment of the
claim VA had to pay to the
lender, he said.
Oregon veterans should under
stand this UrnvnugWy when dis
posing of their GI homes, Novot
ny emphasized.
The veteran may be released
of the liability to the Veterans
Administration vl his loan is cur
rent and if the purchaser has
obligated himself by contract io
purchase his property and as
sume his liability.
In addition, the purchaser
Y
must satisfy the VA that he is
a good credit risk.
Oregon veterans may apply
to the VA nr a release irmm
liability by submitting a writ
ten request addressed to Man
ager, Veterans Administration
Regional Office, 20ft SAV. Fifth
Avenue, Portland, Ore. 97204.
The request should include (lie
VA loan number if known tit is
shown on the reverse of the
certificate of eligibility', the ad
dress oi tbc property, the name
and address of the proposed
purchaser, and the name and

that voters in (he 1064 presiden
tial elections should not "be
compelled to chose between ex

business convention:
"The America!) people should

President Kennedy "does not

... It is evidenced to tte de
