 The reporting o f i CTS de- clared that modification of the existing project at Cordova can not be justified at the present time.

SewGrci Residents To Ger BCG Shofs

BCG, the tuberculosis shots which have proved so success IuI wherever given, are to be given so residents O. Seward the latter part oI April, accord ing to Mrs LaPreal Bic, Public Health Nurse. BCG apparently bestoWs lifetime immunity to persons taking 1t and has been used regularly for the past two decades in Europe, particularly in the Scandinavian countries, which have thereby reduced their incidence of tuberculosis to one-half of one per cent of the population.
 In 1887, according to Mrs. Bic, BCG was used on control groups in southeastern Alaska and the results, as checked over the past 13 years, have been favorable.
 BCG is administered only by especially trained teams of med ical workers. One such team will be in Seward the latter part of this month and Mrs. Bic urges Seward residents to take advantage of the valuable inn munization shots which will be administered without charge.

Human Arteries
Frozen for Later
Surgical Use
BY the Associated Press

DENVER, June 2.-University
OF Colorado research men have
found a method to quick-freeze
sections of living human artery
for use later in patching clogged
bloodlines.
DR.. Henry Swan, head of the
schools surgery department, re-
ported the discovery to the Med
ical Alumni Association last night.
He said it is the first time
science has frozen, then restored
adult tissue. Successful freezing
Iof living tissue has been accom-
Iplished before only with embry-
onic or cancerous tissue, he said.
DR.. Swan explained that graft
ing of arteries is not a new sur
|gical technique. But arteries
normally are stored in chemical
solution and have a usable life of
only few weeks before tissue
cells break down.
The surgeon said the quick
freeze method appears to offer the
possibility of indefinite storage.
1t still is being investigated.

DEATH CERTIFICATES

For some reason, some Of our To-
cal Presidents are becoming a bit
negligent in reporting deceased
members of their local lodges. If, in
the event, a lodge loses a member,
let it be locally or out of town, it is
the duty of that local President to
riotify the Office that he or she has
a deceased member and it will take
more than the allotted 8 days to get
the death certificate, etc, into the
office.
We had a letter from one Of our
local Presidents, a few days ago,
notifying the office that he had a
member to d lie in January, 1850.
This is absolutely gross negligence
on the part of this local President.
Suppose all of the local Presidents
in the Association would do as this
President has done, it would not be
very long before we would have no
Association. Presidents, when you
get to the place where you do not
have time to attend to the business
of the local lodge, as it should be
attended to, do think til ia you
should notify the lodge in order that
they might do the next best thing.
