DR.. LORENZ OVERWHELMED
BY WAVES OF CRIPPLES

/ ligaments. Dr. Lorenz called attention
to the scars left from previous inef-
fectual operations with the knife when
attempts had been made to transplant
tendons.
While the boy lay stretched flat on his
back the surgeon raised the left ankle
by means OF q block. Then he applied
the full weight OF his massave body
upon the lads left knee, which was
flexed and held clear Of the table by
about six inches with his elbow rest
ing upon tho kneecap, DR.. Lorenz thrust
himself vigorously downward upon the
bridged leg, sprlnging It up and down
time after time until the straining Of the
overtaxed tendons seemed almost Wis
ible to the eye.
Then the attending surgeons turned
the boy over upon his face With the
refractory leg still lacked up upon the
block. DR.. Lorenz renewed his crushing
pressure, exerting It this time behind the
knee upon the hamstrung muscles Of the
thigh. After he had completed this
operation the master turned over the
an@sthetized newsboy to the house sur
geons, who, as they already had dono in
the case OF the little girl, set about in
casing the lad in a plaster cast to hold
the knees in their present over-corrected
position. He predicted recovery within
a period Of about six months.
SO clamorous was the throng eager
for clinical examination that the ex-
pert, with only a moments rest, turned
directly from the operating table to his
new task. He had completed the two
operations in slightly less than one
hour.
DR.. Herman Freuenthaa. OF the house
staff, earlier in the day had appeared
at tho hospital doors still gowned in
his white togs and cap. His purpose
was to select from tho waiting crowds
cases that seemed to him most urgent.
He found II no easy task. No sooner
had he appeared than every mother in
the multitude, some of them mistaking
him for DIR. Lorenz. thrust forward
her own stricken child.
