Mental institutions used it. 1t
was used as a baby-Sitter and
as an anti-emetic in pregnancy.
Manufactured by the ton, it
was sold without a doctors pre-
scription.
But when a manufacturer
asked for a release from the
Food and Drug Administration
to sell the drug, FDA resisted.
Called Contergan in Ger
many, the drug was introduced
as DiStaval in Britain, Softenon
in Portugal. Kevadon and
Talimol in Canada - whose
drug laws are almost identical
to those in the United States.
Considered Here
DR.. Frances Oldham Kelsey,
a Canadian native employed at
FDA here as a medical officer,
was assigned to consider a re-
quest from the William S. Mer-
rell Co. for use of the drug in
the United States. 1t was being
manufactured and used in
clinical tests here-aS Kevadon
That was September, 1860.
Under law, if FDA takes no
action in so days, the drug is
marketed.
At the German Pediatric
meeting in KasSel, two ply
sicians we're reporting two
cases of phocomelia, Greek for
seal flipperS."
In this birth defect, infants,
if they live, have withered
arms and legs like those of a
seal, or none at all.
1t was to be months before
physicians were to discover
that the mothers of rapidly in
creasing numbers of malformeS
infants which may reach
5000 or more-had taken tha-
lidomide in the early months
of pregnancy.
Safety Not Proved
In Washington, DR.. Kelsey
meanwhile returned Merrell's
application, routinely pointing
out where she felt research was
necessary to prove thalido-
mide'S safety. She was well
aware of the drugs wide use in
Europe, but her job, she in
sisted, was to judge a drug by
the scientific proof.
DR.. Kelsey wondered about
two things: the effects of long
use of the drug and its effects
on pregnant women. Like most
drugs, thalidomide probably
would pass from the expectant
mother to her child.
She was skeptical also be-
cause the drugs main effect
as q sedative-did not show up
in animals. They could not
be put to sleep with it. Maybe
DR.. Kelsey thought. the drugs

additional reasons to senC
Merrell's application back To-
more work.
In 1859, in Germany, there
had been II cases of phocome'
liza. In 1860, the number grew
to more than a 100.
TingIing Hands
In 1861, a form of polyneu-
ritis appeared: tingling hands
sensory disturbance and later
atrophy of the thumb and
motor disturbances from con-
tinuous use of thalidomide.
In February, 1861, DR.. Kelsey
was shown a British medical
journal because it related to
another application she was
handling.
AS DR.. Kelsey thumbed
through the pages. she came
to a report on thalidomide-
related polyneuritiS. Now, at
last, she had plenty of argu-
ment against the drug.

the Johns Hopkins University
noted last month in a review of
thalidomide, the link between

hitter, but he actually didn't
That was the managerial Il
caused endless poSt-ganle COM
ment after the Giants So tri-
umph yesterday to square the
series at three each. Houk must
have been asked the question
at least so times, but he never
wavered.
This was the situation:
The Giants scored three runs
in the bottom of the fourth on
a walk, two singles, a double
and Ford's error. OF the five
hits off Ford, two were deep
infield shots and one was a
bad-hop single.
In the top of the fifth Roger
Maris broke up Billy Pierce's
perfect-game bid with a solid
home run. Elston Howard was
safe on an error and Bill
Skowron flied out. With Ford
on deck Pierce started pitching
extra carefully to Clete Boyer
and finally made 1t an inten-
tional pass.
That brought up the pitcher
with two on. two out and his
team two runs behind.
Every eye on press row was
on the Yankee dugout. but Out
stepped Whitley, swinging his
bat as he took his choppy little
steps to the plate. He popped
UP.
Everybody who later asked
the big question had in mind
game No. 4 when Houk lifted
Ford for a pinch-hitter in the
bottom Of the sixth in Yankee
Stadium with two on, two out
and the score tied.
Yogi Berra hit for him and
walked, but the next batter
grounded out. The Giants
scored four runs in the next in
ming off Ford's successors and
squared the series.
4 =
According to Houk, the situa-
tons were not nearly as COM
parable as the inquiring press
made out. This was Houk's
thinking about yesterdays sit
uation:
I'VE still have four more in
nings to hit against a pitcher
who we regard as seven-in-
ming pitcher. We have to get
them out in five more innings.
"Why should. I sacrifice the
best pitcher on my staff for a
Ipinch-hitter at a time like that?
The ball game is not even half
over.
$50 If the pinch hitter doesn't
get a hit, we're still trailing by
two runs, they have five more
cracks at US, and my best pitch
er is sitting on the bench, out
of the ball game.
II never gave 1t q second
thought, and I wouldn't if the
situation came UP again."
Dark was asked If he was
surprised when Ford batted for
himself.
81 was hoping Ralph would
take him out for a pinch-hitter,
but I didn't think he would"
Dark said. II would rather have
had Ford out of the game as
far as we're concerned. He's
their best pitcher and natural
ly we respect him more than
anybody on their staff"
II think Ralph made the
right move by leaving him in, "
Dark added.
Houk didn't add this. but it
is obvious that he might have
been influenced by a lack of
confidence in his bullpen. Mar
shall Bridges is not the re-
lever he was earlier in the
season. While Jim Coates
moved down seven straight
hitters when he did relieve
Ford, he has been inconsistent.
Luis Arroyo can't even get
the ball up to the plate, and
Tex Clevenger and Bob Turley
are not much more than bat
ting practice pitchers. Roland
Sheldon and Jim Bouton
haven't even had their jackets
off in the series.
If Ralph Terry gets in
trouble today, Houk indicated
that Bill Stafford, the Yankees
third starter, will be his No. l
