Brooklyn Doctors
Waited 18 Months
To Try Transplant
By FREDERICK M. WINSHIP
NEW YORK (UPD—The sur
geons who performed America’s
first heart transplant had been
ready for 18 months to attempt
the pioneering surgery, awaiting
only a patient with a failing
heart and an available donor at
the same time.
The chance came Wednesday.
But the implant of another
infant’s heart into the chest of a
two and a half week old child
failed.
The baby who received the
heart died six and a half hours
after the surgery was com
pleted.
The daring operation was
tried three days after surgeons
in South Africa implanted a
dying woman’s heart into the
heart of a 55-year-old man. He
has survived.
Kantrowitz Heads Team
Dr. Adrian Kantrowitz, a
renowned U.S. heart surgeon,
headed the team that attempted
the transplant Wednesday in
Maimonides Medical Center in
Brooklyn.
Kantrowitz said that when a
baby with a defective heart
valve was born at Miamonides
two and half weeks ago, an
intensive search was launched
for a suitable heart donor.
"We scoured the country for
two weeks, asking rospitals to
tell us whether they had any
children born with brain da
mage incompatible to life;”
Kantrowitz said.
"A hospital in Philadelphia
called and said they had a boy
of this sort born Monday, and
we spoke to the parents who
were intelligent and understand
ing,” Kantrowitz added.
Names Withheld
Names of the two infants and
their families were not re-
vealed.
The surgeon called reporters
to a news conference Wednes
day afternoon to describe the
case. Gravely, he announced:
“Ladies and gentlemen, I’m
sorry. I’m afraid we have bad
news, not good news. Hie baby
is dead.”
"We consider this a failure,”
he said. “The baby seemed to
be ' doing reasonably well
following the operation but the
heart suddenly stopped. Resus
citation was attempted without
success.”
Sherman said the parents of
the recipient child were notified
two weeks ago that the chances
of their baby’s survival were
“extremely slight” without the
surgery planned by the medical
team. At that time cardiac
transplant had never before
been attempted anywhere in the
world, he emphasized.
HONORED OPERA
After it was premiered at the
New York Metropolitan Opera
House, Samuel Barber’s opera,
“Vanessa,” was performed at
the Salzburg, Austria, Festival,
the first American opera to re
ceive this honor.

Water Running
Again In Ocilla
OCILLA, Ga. (UPI) — Resi
dents of this small Georgia
community could turn on water
faucets without feeling guilty to
day for the first time since last
Saturday.
The 3,000 townspeople had
only enough water to "wash
faces, cook and drink” for four
days after the town’s water
pump broke, city officials said.
A spokesman for the city said
residents voluntarily rationed
their water until a repair crew
from nearby Albany could re
pair a bearing that burned out
in the town’s water pump.
A small auxiliary pump was
used during the four days but
city officials said it produced
barely enough pressure to get
trickles of water into the
homes.
Utilities Supt. John Hartnett
said things began returning to
normal late Wednesday when
the bearing was replaced.
