Patient Dies
Artificial Heart
Verdict In Doubt
By DARRELL MACK
HOUSTON (UPD—The first
human to be given a heart
made by a fellow human died
Tuesday. But the verdict on the
artificial heart—which kept him
alive until a human donor could
be found—remained in doubt.
Haskell Karp, 47, of Skokie,
111., lived twice as long with the
artificial heart as with the
transplanted organ he received
Monday morning.
But the man-made device
which its designer said could
have prolonged Karp’s life for
up to six months is coming
under attack from the National
Heart Institute and Dr. Denton
A. Cooley’s superiors in Hous
ton.
Preliminary Cause
The preliminary cause of
Karp’s death was given as

rejection complicated by pneu
monia and kidney failure but a
complete autopsy was sche
duled.
Both the NHI and the Baylor
school staff have questioned
whether Cooley and Liotta
failed to follow prescribed
medical guidelines in using the
artificial heart.
Dr. Frank Hastings of the
NHI in Bethesda, Md., said
Tuesday any medical innovation
such as an artificial heart
developed in whole or in part by
institute funds must go through
rigorous tests and evaluations
by persons other than the
developer before it can be used.
The institute is very strict on
this edict, Hastings said,
because there appears to be a
tendency for doctors to use
these innovations Immediately
after development.
The aim of the institute,
Hastings said, was to safeguard
the patient.
Asks For Report
And, Dr. Theodore Cooper,
director of NHI, said he had
written Dr. Michael Deßakey,
president of the Baylor school
asking for a report on the heart
used in Karp. He said he had no
evidence at this time that any
violation of the guidelines had
occurred, and his request for a
report was routine procedure.
Dr. Deßakey also established
a set of guidelines for members
of his staff which, it is being
claimed, Cooley and Liotta
violated.
Deßakey’s rules prohibit staff
members from using an exper
imental device in surgery
without the approval of a
committee of Baylor doctors.
The artificial heart Implanted
in Karp was never presented to
such a committee and Liotta
said Deßakey was not even
aware the device existed until it
was placed into Karp.
Karp lived 63 hours with t/e
artificial heart and 30 hours and
20 minutes with the transplant
ed heart of Mrs. Barbara Ewan,
a Lawrence, Mass., housewife.

United Press International
The yellow roses are in bloom
in San Antonio; residents of
Spring Valley, 111. (population
5,500) are in the midst of a
citywide cleanup campaign; a
lady in Lexington, Mass, saw a
rosy finch.
Tens of millions' of other
Americans enjoyed spring in
their own way today. United
Press International, stirred by
the bright skies and balmy
temperatures, contacted a num
ber of them to talk about it.
“I’m going out to Beaver
Lake to fish for bass now that
I’ve painted all the woodwork
around home,” said Tito Mora
ni, a post office official In
Springdale, Ark., which claims
to be the chicken capital of the
world.
In Springhill, La., “the home
of the world’s largest paper
mill,” Banker H. Ray Lewis
helped his 13-year-old son plant
his first, vegetable garden along
the backyard fence after a busy
day making loans to homeown
ers on a “fix up, paint up
binge.”
Spring Spreads
Spring, three weeks young In
the South, spread to the
northern limits of the nation
bringing new life after a winter
of near-record adversity. Good
weather was the rule in most
places.
In Kirby, Mont., 300 new
calves were added to a herd of
I, cattle on the Lazy T
Ranch.
“And we’ve got more on the
way,” said ranch owner Walter
J. Taylor. “It means nothing
but work until next fall, then
maybe I’ll take a vacation.”
While the hills were barely
green in Montana, San Antonio
was lushly emerald enhanced by
blooming bridal wreath, laurel,
redbud, yellow roses, peach,
cottonwood and mesquite. Mrs.
Peter Hobson, an artist, was
outdoors at her easel.
“I always feel more like
painting when spring comes,”
said Diana Hobson. “I get a lot
more work done when the
weather is lovely.”
Near the monument of the
Minute Man beside “The rude
bridge that arched the flood”
the crocuses were in bloom just
11 days before the anniversary
of the Battle of Lexington,
Mass. Mrs. Olivia Vuilleumier
of Lexington prepared to rake
her lawn for the first time with
gratitude in her heart.
Saw Rosy Finch
“We’re all very grateful here
for spring after than long
winter of snow—four feet! It
has been never been deeper in
my lifetime. The jonquils are
almost out and today I saw rosy
finch. That’s very unusual. We
generally just have purple
finches.”
And in New York, you could
tell it was spring. The Mets lost
their eighth consecutive home
opener.
Their conquerers this time
were the Montreal Expos, brash
interlopers from the North,

seeking their first major league
victory.
To be fair, the Mets made it
close, scoring four runs In the
ninth inning to close the margin
to 11-10. But no true Met fan
expected a victory.
At the end of the game, 45,000
winter weary fans breathed a
grateful sigh of relief and filed
out of Shea Stadium joyfully
looking for other harbingers of
spring-like crocuses and rose
buds and robins on the wing.
