Russian, said Mrs. Roosevelt
had watched with him COM
plete medical films made by the
Russians Of their transplant
operations, but did not witness
any Of the actual operations. as
he did.
DR.. Gurewitsch said he saw
several dogs with two hearts
at the Russian laboratory and
lone of them had been alive
for 80 days. He was very chip
per and had two different
pulses.
Actually, DIR. Gurewitsch
said, the transplanting of
hearts is more dAicult than
the transplanting Of heads "be-
cause there are so many big
vessels that have to be tied"
The overall aim Of such re-
search, DR.. Gurewitsch said,
is to enable surgeons to take
healthy limbs from a body just
after death and transplant
them to q living person.
Limb Transplant
He explained the problem
faced by medical researchers:
1.-THE human brain is dead If
it doesn't have a supply Of blood
for 10 minutes. The cells die
forever. But q human limb,
for instance an arm or leg. will
live for 100 hours after death
without the cells dying. Yes,
it will live that long.
Therefore. theoretically, we
should be able to try to take
a human leg from a dead per-
son and give it to somebody
who needs a leg instead Of a
wooden leg. Now this kind Of
thing is the ultimate objective
Of this kind Of surgery.
But this is Just the first
step. There are a number Of
aspects of this problem that
must be solved. There are
more problems than just the
technical problems involved.
But nobody can underestimate
what the Russians are doing"
The Russian accomplishment
was reported yesterday in a
broadcast by Radio Moscow.
The broadcast said a puppy's
head has been successfully add
ed to an Alsatian dog and both
the dog and the extra head are
doing well. In similar opera.
lions previously. the Moscow
radio said, the dogs had not
lived for more than six days.

How ridiculous can manage
