FAMOUS FABLES
BY z. E. EDGAR

WEAKNESS: Before the open.
ing Of the 1854 World Series be.
tween Cleveland and the New
York Giants. the Indians man.
ager AL Lopez sent one of his
coaches to scout the New York
club.
In particular. he was eager tc
learn any weakness of Willie
Mays, who had performed as
founding, featS during the sea-
son. The coach came back with
plenty Of information about the
Giants. but about Mays weak
neSS-nothing.
Willie's performance in the
Series was little short Of miracu-
lous. His hitting. his throwing
and his sensational catches left
the Indians bench stunned.
In the second inning Of the
fourth and final game, CIeve-
land had a man on third with
two out. The batter rified a shot
to centerfield. Mays shared 1t.
Then, forgetting that his catch
ended the inning. he fired the
ball home, to keep the man on
third from scoring.
Returning to the dugout. the
Indians coach went up to Lopez
and said:
We'll, I've finally discovered
Willie's weakness. Al. He can't
count"

lay open the heart and make
whatever repairs were necessary
inside.
Mechanical stand-ins for the
heart are here at last.
With the aid Of a heart lung
machine, University Of Minne-
sofa surgeons have been per-
forming q variety Of hitherto
impossible heart operations on
a regular three-times-weekly
schedule. since last spring. Since
spring also. surgeons at the Mayo
Clinic at Rochester, MINI, have
been working on a similar sched-
ule with another heart-lung
mechanism. The two institutions
together have done nearly $50
operations with heart lung ma
chimes. Other medical centers
have performed over 100 more
with similar devices.
Fascinating Story
Heart lung machines are at
once a great scientific and
surgical breakthrough, and a
fascinating story. Because Of
quirk OF human anatomy, they
defeated the efforts Of a small
army Of researchers in half a
dozen countries for almost 20
years.
The troublesome quirk Of ana
tony was the arrangement Of
the heart and the great vessels
that carry blood to and from the
body and lungs. A Stand-in for
the heart alone would be awk-
ward to connect to the patient
and would put a lot Of tubing
in the heart surgeons way. The
heart stand-in had to fill in for
the heart and lungs both; that
is. it had to be a heart-lung ma
chine.
1t happens that the action OF
the heart itself was not espe-
cially difficult to duplicate; there
were several types Of pump that
could be used. Duplicating the
job Of the lungs-supplying life
giving oxygen to the blood-was
another matter entirely.
The problem was finally solved
in several ways. In the Mayo
Clinic heart-lung ma C h in e
developed by DR.. J. H. Gibbon
of Jefferson Medical College,
Philadelphia. blood moves in
thin film down stainless steel
screens in a plastic oxygen tank.
In the Minnesota machine. de-
vised by group under Drs. c.
Walton Lillehei and Richard L.
Varco, oxygen is bubbled into
the blood in tube coupled to an
ingenious trap for removing
dangerous excess bubbles. Other
heart-lung machines employ still
other oxygenation arrangements. |
Ready to Give Up
The heart-lung machine prob
lem was not solved, however. be-
fore nearly everyone concerned
was ready to give up. For, as re-
Gently as three years ago. almost
no laboratory could consistently
keep animals alive with them.
DR.. Gibbon, who had worked
longest and gone farthest. had
performed one operation sue
