NERVES SWITCHED
LIKE WIRES IN BODY
Scientific Tests Reveal Rat
Using Front Legs Through
Back Ones.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 25.-Zoological
proof that living nerves can be switched
like telegraph wires was presented to
the American Association of AnatomiSts
meeting here today.
II the nerve naturally controlling a
muscle Is destroyed another nerve can
be substituted by operation and will
operate the muscle very well.
These switches have been made and
their success verified at Yale Uni
versity in the Osborn Geological Lab
oratory. Donald H. Barron. who con-
Quoted the experiments, reported them
to the anatomiSts.
The Yale operations go far toward
settling a medical question Of imme-
diate human application. Years ago
DIR. Harvey Cushing of Harvard Uni
versity cured a man of twisted neck
by an operation which switched con-
troll of the faulty neck muscles from
a diseased nerve to a healthy one.
Diffieulty Raises Doubts.
But since then some others have
had difficulty in repeating DR.. Cush-
ings results. a circumstance that raised
doubts whether the nerve switching
was the real explanation.
On experiments on rats at Yale the
nerves controlling the movements OF the
fore legs were disconnected. They were
replaced by nerves from the hind legs
At first the disconnected front legs were
virtually paralyzed-out of control. AS
the new nerve line strengthened the rat
learned to use it to send signals to his
fore legs. Some animals regained vir-
tually full control of the legs.
surprising feature Is that these rats
send the messages to move their front
legs right through the hind leg nerve
channels without seemingly confusing
the rear members.
Indication of Tests.
The value of rats for these expert
ments lies in the opportunity to dis
cover whether the signals are leaking
to the front legs through some unsus-
pected nerve channels
Rigorous tests indicate that the other
nerves carry no signals and that the
entire front leg orders" are transmit
ted via the hind legs
Switches to certain other muscles
show the same kind of results

the country of wildcats.
