Vital Organ of Chicken
That Never Lived Thriy-
ing at Rockefeller Insti.
tute Under Carrel's Care
Connective Tissue
Keeps Spreading
Surgeons Theory That
Life Can Be Sustained
Indefinitely Is Helped

Dr.. Alexis Carrel, who is to sail fo,
France soon, will leave at the Rookie
feller Institute laboratories one of the
surgical marvels Of the age. 1t is the
heart of a chicken that never lived. al.
though its heart, which was removed
from the embryo in 1912, still beats
and adds to its tissue in special con,
talner at the laboratories. The orrar
has been nourished artifcially fol
eight years.
Long before the World War Dr.
Csrrel startled scientists with the an
nouncement that he had kept portions
of animals hearts alive for months
while immersed in a special antiscntic
solution, and that these portions, afte,
a comparatively short time, surrounded
themselves with living cells and grew
to more than sixty times their original
size.
NOurished in His Absence
When the war took the famous sur
geon to France, not to return except on
"'ieA iiPS uilli1 ISIS, IL was supposed q
that his experiments were abandoned
Information now available shows that
under DR.. Carrel's direction the en-
bryo chicken heart which began its
life eight years ago has been regularly
fed and cared for until at present the
scientist has gone further than ever
to prove the possibility Of his claim to
Immortality for individual living
tissues.
AT the Rockefeller Institute yester-
day it was impossible to ascertain how
long DR.. Carer expects to remain in
France on his present voyage
\ DR.. Carrel was awarded the Nobe
prize in 1912 in recognition of his
surgical achievements, notably the
transplantation Of organs and the
suture of blood vessels. He had sue
cessfuily interchanged the main artery
and jugular vein of man. without hat
result, and had grated the leg of {
dead fox terrier on to the body of =:
living terrier.
On January II, 1912. DR.. Carre
began his experiments with the hear
OF an embryo chick. This tiny bit Of
life was placed in test tube and aftel
two years the tissue cells had multi
Piled actively to produce large
amount of connecting tissue. At the
beginning of the third year expert
ments showed that its proliferatinf
power had increased instead of dimin
ished, as might have been supposed.
Comments on His Work
At this time DR.. Carrel announced il
scientific circles:
"The fact remains that during the
third year of Independent life the con.
nective tissue shows greater ACTIVITY
than at the beginning of that perIoe
and is no longer subject to the in
fuence of time. If we exclude acci
dents, connective tissue cells may pro
hferate indefinitely"
The reticence of the Rockefeller In
stitute to give publicity to the eight
year old wonder chicken heart has in
creased speculation since the war as tt
whether it had expired during the long
sojourn of the scientist abroad. The
information that it still lives ane
grows indicates that the Carrel theory
Of tissue immortality is upheld, at leas
so far as experimentation can show
