claim cure.
Some Success Reported.
Another team of scientists re-
ported some impror ement In
mental patients under a some
what similar technique.
Since that time, however, there
have been only a few reports of
such experiments in medical
literature. One doctor here says
he believes the mental disease
studies have been abandoned.
The pioneering studies on can
Ger and mental disease were
largely overshadowed. some doc
tors say. by the finding that
localized refrigeration" of cer-
tain parts of the body could pro-
vide means of "shockless'
anesthesia - particularly valuable
in performing certain types of am
putation.
In the frozen sleep" technique.
the temperature of the body is
lowered about 10 or Is degrees
below normal to slow down or
ganic processes without endanger-
ing them.
In the case of cancer, which Is
a wild growth of cells, the intent
is to check that activity without
affecting normal cells.

The experience Of a Chicago
