Research Center, Inc, of assembling them
all in a revolutionary type of institution
which will be cheap to build and simple to
operate, yet give the best medical care.
DR.. Louis NJ Orr, President of the Amer
lean Medical Association, believes the Ato-
medic idea offers the only solution to our
twin problems of high medical costs and the
doctor nurse shortage. For that reason, he
has suggested that the Medical Director
of Atomedic, DR.. Hugh MacCuire, invite
executives Of the nations top SO corpora
tions to meeting where both doctors will
ask the help of American industry in plan
ming and building the structure. 1t will be
held in Washington, January 20.
One for every neishbOVhood?
The Montgomery unit may cost millions
of dollars, but once the pilot model is ready
and running, mass production can begin
and costs plummet.
The Atomedic Hospital is designed for
mass production. 1t consists of "a identical
segments (23 patients rooms, one ofice)
which interlock like pieces Of jigsaw puz-
zle. Big cities and rural areas alike can use
the same 24-room arrangement. In cities,
many can be scattered around the neighbor-
hoods - instead of having one big Medical
- Center downtown - while any section with
a population of $500 or more will be able
to afford at least one.
Running costs also will be cut by the
hospitals astonishing ease of operation.
The conventional hospital has "a workers
available for each patient - mostly kitchen,
laundry and maintenance help. But the
Atomedic Hospital will use disposable cellu-
lose-6ber ''linens" and disposable eating
utensils. Frozen foods, prepared elsewhere,
will be stored in the patients own freezer
in the wall of his room, and tipped, auto
matically, meal at a time, into wall
cooker Result: staff of less than %,
including doctors and nurses, where the
present 23-bed hospital needs almost 90.

via a closed-circuit color TV camera and
intercom in each room. They will never
have to walk more than 80 feet to reach any
patient Result: few doctors and nurses
can care for q patients around the clock.
Finally, the danger of transmitting infec-
ton from outside will be virtually elimi-
mated. Visitors will not walk down long

sonnel. Doctors and nurses will stay in the
center control area, while visitors walk
around the outside rim. The hospital will
be kept germ-free with ultraviolet light or
small cobalt-6O radioactive unit, which
will sterilize the air and instruments.
These are just few of the startling, but
practical, features to be built into the Mont
gomery hospital. Even more startling is
the Atomedic plan for the future:
Once the idea has spread, and there are
100, thousand or 100 thousand Of these
inexpensive hospitals across the country,
the next step will come. Instead of the trans
ducers reporting only to the local switch
board and tape units, they will also be con-
nected by ng-distance telephone lines to
giant regional computers - which will con-
tain, on tape, the sum total of our most
modern and specialized medical knowledge.
Coming: The eIeeironies doctor
Each incoming impulse will trigger a
response, and instantly, without the pos
sibility of human error, the most advanced
information on those symptoms will fash
back to the patients bedside!

tools but research tools as well. Every

elicit a response based on present knowl-
edge it also would add to the medical
lore already stored, analyzed and catalogued
on tape.
The same system would give us a con-
tinuous up-to-the.minute medical census.
Epidemics would report themselves. Man.

gency, just how many able-bodied persons
we're available in an area, and just how able
bodied they were.

see the magic transducers worn by every
person, sick or well. The computers could
handle that load, too; and we might look
forward to the time when doctor would

same thing - nothing.
We are beginning to wonder

returned empty-handed, the

big, beautiful deer grazing in

pen back home in Southern
Maryland.
This year, my neighbor up the
road, aware of my reputation as
the big game hunter of our Sec
ton, pleaded with me to come
up to his place and shoot a big
buck that had been parading
around his farm for the past six
months. OF course, this was too
tame for Ole Gene.

Despite HetzePs great game
the win was a team effort for
the Bears. George Manger got
IA points and Is rebounds,
Bobo Berger scored 10 points,
and John McConnaughey, sur
prise starter, got nine.
The Bears teamed up to do a
fine defensive job on Bladens-
burg's AIl-Maryland Tommy
Barrett, holding him to seven
points. According to Barton, no
special defense was set up for
Barrett, only the usual pro-
cedure that the player into
whose area of the court Barrett
went was to play him man-for-
man. Bob McConnaughey and
Berger generally picked him
up, and effectively kept him
from driving in.
One spectator especially ap-
preciative of Hetzel and his
teammates was Tommy Nolan,
the former coach at Georgetown
University.

pect," Nolan said, land saw

That's the day that Landon
School of Bethesda visits De-
Malta in a battle between the
two best high school teams IN
the metropolitan area. Spin
garn is the only other team In
their class, and it plays neither
Landon nor DeMatha.
It's pretty early to start
thinking about basketball games
in January, but this one shapes
up as something special. After
the Bears smashed the defend
ing Maryland State and b
County champ, Bladensburg,
1887, last Friday at Landon, it
was easy to get the idea that
the Landon students are looking
forward to the Stays.
The game may be a tossup,
since DeMatha has already
established itself as a superior
team with three wins in as
many games. However, Landon
will not be an underdog to the
Stays or any other team.
At Their Best
The Bears were almost a per-
feet team Friday, at least for
this early in the season. They
led all the way, taking a 1876
lead at the end of the first quar-
ter and stretching it to 72-2S
when Bear star Fred Hetzel
left with 5:28 left in the final
period. With the victory the
Bears stretched their winning
streak to 13 in a row and
avenged their last defeat, a 55-37
trouncing by Bladensburg last
year.
Hetzel was something special,
scoring 81 points to equal the
Mustangs total. He scored 10
in the first period, nine in the
second, and then erupted for a
magnificent 10 point perform
ance in the third period. He
made 16 of % shots, and five of
five from the free throw line.
In addition, the 6-foot 8 senior
grabbed Is rebounds and con-
trolled the blackboard as he has
never done before, Led by Hetz-
Ell, the Bears outrebounded the
Mustangs 1924.
Hetzeps rebounding showed
UP more than in mere numbers.
He was knocking balls away
from potential Bladensburg re-
Founders, and following up his
own shots for easy baskets.
Erred was never very aggres-
sive before, but now that he's
playing football, he's doing a
much better job" said Landon
Coach Eddie Barton, repeating
q statement made earlier in the
season. "Once he found out that
he could get knocked around
and not get hurt, he doesn't
mind fighting for the ball"

AFIELID
in Maryland

Dear season is over for an
other year and both the game
wardens and the deer are heav-
ing a sigh of relief. It's been
a tough one for them.
For the warden it's 15-hour
a day, in which he might ar
rest a few gunners. dress out IL
legal kills and transport them
to some charitable institution,
fight a forest fire started by a
careless hunter, and go home to
very late supper Then, he's
called out to apprehend night
hunters, trying to blind a deer
before shooting it.
1t isn't any easier for the
bucks either. Being shot at by
everyone is bad enough. But
burning down their homeplace,
binding them with bright lights
while they feed at night, and
not letting them get any sleep
during the day, is enough to
give any deer ulcers.
The Hunter
What is a deer hunter, what
kind of a man is he?
Most of them are sportsmen,
who wouldn't shoot a doe or
button buck, but would tramp
through three-foot of snow for
hours, after rising from bed at
three in the morning, just to
get a shot at big buck.
His wife is far outshone when
it comes to wearing flashy
clothing. / once saw a hunter
wearing red boots, yellow pants,
a green shirt, and a red-checked
hat in local mountains. The real
pay-off was the pink ladies' UNI
brella, with tassels, he was hold
ing to keep the rain off him.
Deer hunters are avid read.
ers and the more they read the
greater becomes their confusion
about which is the most safe
color to wear while cunning.
Years ago only red was consid.
cred safe. Later, yellow was
proven the brightest color. Then
deep orange was at the top OF
the parade, and now brilliant
orange is the latest discovery
You can trace the findings OF
this experiment by looking al
some of the hunters. Just to be
sure, they'll be wearing a little
of each color. OF course, there's
the non-conformist who wears
camouflage clothing. He figures
if they can't see me, they won't
shoot me.
Each hunter knows his rifle
is the best for the job and car
recite bullet speed, trajectory
and muzzle velocities to prove
it. But some smart country kiC
will always show at the check
ing station with his 20 gauge
shotgut, probably missing a CUR
sight, and a trophy buck tina
was felled with a handmade
pumpkin ball. This is ignored

Then there are decisions for
hunters to make. Take the ex-
ample where a local warden
caught couple of deer hunters
in a field at night, shining a
light on a deer. Wardens closed
in and found no guns in the car,
but nearby lay two very expen-
sive rifles.
'Who owns these guns?"
asked the warden.
whats the fine for spotlight
ing?" one of the cars occupants
asked.
The warden explained the
amount of the fine and the
hunters claimed the rifles and
were arrested for spotlighting.
Later they explained the guns
were more expensive than the
fine, so they took the cheapest
way out.
Hunting Tip
If you are one of those rab'
bit hunters who leaves lot OF
hair on the meat when cleaning
it try wetting the fur before
hand. The wet hair has less
tendency to stick to the flesh,
and won't fly around the area
when you are skinning, particu
larly helpful if you're in the
house.
