Navy Brings Up Diver
With Bends in Good Shape
BY WILLIAM BASHAM
Star Stan Writer

Floyd E. Goines came up"
in good shape at 1910 am,
today, as the Navy put it.
Mr.. Goines, 26, former po-
liceman, is a professional skin
diver, but he ran into trouble
with his air apparatus Monday
IN an Oklahoma lake and sur
faced too fast from an 80-foot
depth. He was flown to the
Naval Weapons Plant here and
immediately placed in a de-
compression chamber operated
by the Navy School of Deep Sea
Diving.
The Navy took him down"
to l65 feet. Some of the ter
rible pain was quickly removed
from his nearly paralyzed left
side. He stayed in the huge
tank 80 hours and % minutes.
Hospitalman 1/c Roger Chris
tenSon, a diving veteran him
self, observed the patient at
close range.
Early this morning Mr..
Christensen was stricken with
a mild case of the bends" in
both his knees and was put
in the decomposition chamber
for a 4-hour treatment, the
Navy disclosed.
The Oshkosh (Wis.) sailor
entered the chamber at 6:04
am. and was released at 1921,
the Navy said.
Still for 10 Hours
Outside the tank through
out the vigil for Mr.. Comes
were several doctors and their
assistants, holding stop watches
and charts as they peered
through small portfolios of the
chamber to look at Mr.. Goines,
who hardly stirred the first 10
hours.
A doctor said the diver was
suffering from an air embolism,
meaning he had an air bubble
lodged tightly in blood vessel.
The tanks job was to make
the bubble small enough to be
absorbed by the blood. Once
this was done, the pressure .,
paralyzing his nervous system
would lift.
Late Tuesday, the Okla
hon1an started to take notice
of his surroundings. His Navy
companion produced a deck of
cards and they played poker
as Mr.. Goines slipped his re-
stricted diet of juices. When
ever the diver got a sharp stitch
in his limbs. the hospitalman
called through a speaker Get I

,HoSpitalman Christensen
didn't realize it, but he was
consuming a lot of coffee.
The heavy stimulation got ,
him jumping" as he put it, {
so he opened a hatch which :

of water and took a swim for
about 10 minutes. Mr.. Comes {
was eager to follow, but the {

nicely. The pair doggedly (
