The young medical student, who Aid Ret By HAROLD MORRISON WASHINGTON (CP) -- First it was cats, then skunks, beaver, racoons, monkeys and finally humans, The year was 1949 and Dr. Murray Llewellyn Barr of Bel- mont, Ont., was hot on the trail of what seemed to be a cur- ious difference in body cells be- [tween male and female ani- mals, He applied bits of matter of one animal and then another to the microscope. He scraped tis- sue from the nerve. cells . of cats; from the stomach, muscle and other parts: of the bodies of other animals, and later, from the skin of humans. "We couldn't get him out of the laboratory," recalled Mrs. Barr, a. one-time nurse and mother of four children. "I thought we'd have to move a cot in there for him." The years of intensive re- search by the University of Western Ontario professor paid off.

As a result, new efforts are expected to be made either to break the blockade against di- vorce bills now before Parlia- ment by marathon sittings or convince New Democratic MPs to lift their blockade voluntar- ily. At the same time, a "free vote'--in which the party lead- ers will advise their followers to be guided solely by their con- sciences and not by party loyal- ties--may be called on a bill aimed at giving the Senate sole authority to dissolve marriages that could be identified by the dyes it absorbs.

Two other outstand- ing world figures who carried the 54-year-old doctor's work a step further are Dr. Jerome Lejeune of France and Dr. Joe} Hin Tjio of Indonesia. They got similar awards Thursday night. Dr. Lejeune discovered chrom- osome abnormalities in. mongo- loids and Dr. \Tjio discovered the exact number of chromo- somes in man--46.
