picture gadgets, accompanied by
nine experts, will visit Puerto

and Mexico.
The tour is co-sponsored by E.
R. Squibb and Sons International
Corp. and the International Gen
eral Electric Co., Inc. They'll tele
vise operations in the five Latin
and South American nations, with
20 TV receivers all tuned in. The
receivers will be set up in hotels
where medical conventions are
going on, for the doctors to study
up on the latest surgical tech
niques.
Two cameras are used in the
system. One, directly above the
patient, is constantly focused on
the incision. Viewers can watch
the surgeon’s hands at work, the
forceps holding back the skin.
Ocassionally, the second cam
era goes into action. It is set on
a movable dolly, and is used to
bring the surgeon’s face or the
oxygen tank as they're turned on
or nurses takifig the patient’s
blood pressure. The second cam
era also focused on the chief sur
geon as he held up, one by one,
marble-sized gall stones.
The surgeon is also equipped
with a chest microphoone, so he
may add comments from time to
time. The regular commentator.
in a room “off stage,” did most
of the talking, but every once in
a while the surgeon put in a few
sentences.
“These knots,” he said, as his
colleague began tying up John
Doe’s wound, “are tied with
square*knots secure over a double
hitch.”
Medical students in hospital
galleries could only caich a flash
of the actual operation. Mostly,
they got a good view of the sur
geon’s back. But this new tele
vision method gives them a clear
picture. They can see everything
from the initial incision to the
final stitches.

Ends lfs Obscurity
By RICHARD KLEINER
NEA Staff Correspondent
Korea isn't a hermit any more.
the site of the world’s newest war
was long known as the “Hermit
Kingdom,” but today its era of ob
scurity is at an end.
In many ways, Korea is one of
the toughest spots on the globe
tfor a modern war. It's a rough
mourtainous country. It has vast
tracts of craggy wilderness, just
right for guerrilla activity. And,
being a peninsula, it has a long
hard-to-defend coastline.
But it has a climate much like
sections of the United States. In
the summers, the mean tempera
ture is a comfortable 75. The win
ters aren't much different from
those along the Atlantic coast of
THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
the U. 8., with a mean tempera=-
ture of 33.
There is a very rainy season—
late spring and summer—when
about 22 inches of rain fall. But
even so, the annual raiifall of
Korea is just abofit what Mid
westerners consider normal.
Korea isn't a big country as
countries in Asia go. It's just a
bit larger than the state of Minne
sota. Crammed into that space are
almost twice as many people as
live in the state of New York.
Most of them are farmers, like
their neighbors across the yellow
Sea in China, And, again like the
Chinese, their main foods are rice
and fish. Until a few years ago,
Korean boats ranged far into the
Pacific on lengthy whale-hunting
trips. Nowadays, however, the
fishermen are content with small
er catches, mainly food fish.
..The mountains of Xorea, inci
dentally, have long been looked
on as a potentially tremendous
source of minerals. Coal is mined,
but much development is needed
before the industry can reach its
peak. Other minerals known to
exist in the Korean mountains are
iron, copper, gold, silver and lead.
Another product that is found
in the back country of Korea is
wild animals, Tigers abound, and
leopards are so numerous that
they occasionally find their way
into fiul, South Korea’s leading
city its capital until the Com
munist invasion,
Seoul is a big city, even as
American standards go. Its popu~
lation of more than 936,000 puts it
above Cleveland, 0., which is the
gixth largest city in the U. 8.
But Seoul, and the rest of Ko
rea, can’t compare to the United
States when it comes to standard
of living. Such things as telephones
and radios are still luxuries in
Korea, And education, while im
proving, is not universal. Only 25
per cent of the children of school
age were enrolled, at the last
count,
The Korean race is small, physi
cally. The average man is only
5 feet, 4% inches tall. But they are
strong, a fact emphasized by a
Korean who won the grueling
Boston Marathon this year.
Women in Korea still occupy
a very inferior position. Most girls
marry when they are 16, and are
expected to have iarge families.
Many Korean homes are small
factories, for home industry is
thriving. They make bomboo
blinds, hats and mats; pottery;
grass-cloth; and brass bowls. Silk
worm raising is another profitable
small industry.
Korea’s contribution to world
wide history up until events of
recent days, has been littie. But
torse boat. This unigue craft,
shaped like a turtle, was the
world’s first ironclad vessel, built
in the 16th Centfury, and it once
helped Korea repel a Japanese in
vasion force.

Barracuda sometimes herd
schools of small fish into shallow
water, keeping them there until
ready to feed, according to the
Encyclopedia Britannica,

don’t know where to go.”
Like displaced persons the world
over, the 200 inhabitants of Wal
lula must find new homes next
year,
Water, not bombs, is responsi
ble for the evacuation of one of
the state’s oldest settlements,
To satisfy the Northwest’s
growing need for power and navi
gation facilities, the Corps of En
gineers is constructing McNary
Dam on the Columbia River near
Umztilla, Ore. Plans call for the
dam to be in operation by 1953.
Water backed up by the damr will
flood the small railz-oad village.
Located rear Old Fort Walla
Walla which was founded in 1817,
the towr: has always been a rough
and ready place,
“Years ago,” one old-timer
boasts, “this town had the longest
bar in the state and one of the
smallest jails in the world, But
that jail was mighty.”
Chief income for the town was
derived from the freight and
transportation companies who
used the town as a transfer point.
At first a landing site where
river boats transferred their car
goes _to freight wagons, the town
later became a rail center.
“Mules and horse teams would
line up for a mile waiting to be
loaded with cargo from the boats,”
F. Lindley, a native, remembers.
“Wagon teams carried freight as
far north as Montana.”
When the railroads reached
Wallula, the town’s population
dropped almost 100 percent,
“The first railroad didn’t have
too much success,” a former agent
recalls. “It was a ‘rawhide’ line
built by the Baker Railroad Com
pany in 1875. One bitter winter
in the ’7o’s, hungry coyotes ate the
rawhide off the tracks and put the
company out of operation.”
At present the Union Pacific
and Northern Pacific railroads use
the town as an icing and freight
transfer point. No one has report

Edward K. Ross, the town's
justice of the peace and an early
settlor, is waiting to see what the
two railroads do. “They have to
relocate their tracks. Most of us
hope they’ll keep some kind of in

An elementary school built at a

“It's too bad we didn’'t know
