16 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, April 13, 1959 Kidney Transplant | | | Saves Youth's Life By ALTON BLAKESLEE BOSTON (AP) -- Riteris lay dying. Today tory. His reprieve -- whe he had given up hope -- was a new tri- umph in giving people borrowed human spare parts. John has a new kidney, bor- rowed from his brother Andrew. It is the first time that a kid- ney has worked normally when borrowed from anyone except your identical twin. A near-deadly bath of x-rays apparently turned the trick and repealed nature's law that you cannot get a new kidney, heart or glands except from an identi- cal twin. FRATERNAL TWINS John's brother Andrew is a fraternal twin, not an identical But the x-ray bath apparently knocked down the mechanism which ordinarily would make John reject his brother's gift John went home Saturday to Milwaukee, escorted by Andrew The victory was won by John and a team of physicians, sur- geons and othpr specialists at Peter Bent Brigham _Hospital DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 1.

The idea behind the hunt is to replenish the supply of head- pieces worn by the guardsmen.

Pear- son has béen asked to call a na- tional conference of all groups interested in social reform. The request was one of several passed Saturday at the annual convention of the Eastern Ontario Liberal Federa- tion, held for the first time out- side Ottawa. The resolution said the confer- ence would be held under the Liberal »arty but all groups world participate as equals. Three motions dealing with li- quor licence recommended changes in existing legislation to prov uniform criteria for granting licences by the licens ine board and ra ¢ the stand ards of licensed premises: a sys- tem of appeals from decisions of the licensing board and a system of appeals from summary convic- tions by magistrates and lower courts on offences under the Li- quor Control Act and the Liquor Licensing Act. The convention supported an immediate increase in pensions of all retired Ontario civi'! <~rv- ants and uniform pensions within each classification of eligible pen- sioners. It reaffirmed its belief in the right of workers to organize and bargain collectively within the law to improve wages and work- ing conditions in a union of their own choice. Ontario Liberal Leader Wintermeyer forecast that a "re- vitalized and redetermined Lib- eral Party" will win the next provincial election. John National | He repeated the election prom- ises he made at a recent one- day convention in Toronto and said the east-west Highway 401 would be completed within two years of the election of a Liberal government. He said Premier Frost should call for a Dominion-provincial conference of fiscal affairs. The federal government had given Ontario only $14,000,000 additional under the Dominion - provincial taxation agreement although the province had asked for $100,000,- 000.
