Youth Stabbed in Heart
Saved by Doctor's Skill
NEW YORK. Feb. 3 (AP).—
“I thank the doctor from the
bottom of my heart; from the
bottom of my punctured
heart.” ,
John Micallef, 17, grinned
when he said it. But there was
no reason to doubt his sin
cerity.
Five days ago, he was stabbed,
for 53 cents. Doctors said the
blade punctured his left lung
and the left ventricle of his
heart. He had no blood pressure
when he was brought to them.
He was not breathing.
Today, he expects to be home
in 10 days.
It happened this way, the
New York Daily News reported:
John, a blue-eyed youth who
immigrated here two years ago
from the Mediterranean isle of
Malta with the seven others of
his family, went to a store
I Tuesday night and paid $3 for
an installment on a ring for
[his girl. His three older broth
| ers accompanied him.
Knifed in Chest
As they sauntered home along
Third avenue on Manhattan's
upper east side, five young
toughs confronted them. One

I backed John into a doorway,
bared a knife and demanded
i money.
John gave him 53 cents, all
he had left. The tough shoved
the blade into his chest, then
fled.
! John, hurried to Metropolitan
Hospital by an unidentified
motorist, was not breathing
I when he reached the emergency
room. He had no pulse.
Dr. Mark Anapoell, 29, senior
chief surgical resident, was
■ summoned.
“We inserted a tube into his
mouth and down his throat.”
the doctor said. "I gave him
mouth -to- mouth respiration.
Manual pressure was applied to
the heart wall. An eight-inch
incision was made into his left
side to get at the wounds.” ■
The doctor said he put his
left index finger over the punc
tured ventricle to stop the
bleeding, and massaged with
his right hand. Five minutes
later, the youth regained
consciousness.
"A priest.” John muttered,
“I want a priest."
Heartbeat Returns
John’s heart began to beat
wildly, Dr. Anapoell said, and
the doctor ordered anesthetics
to put the victim into un
consciousness.
An hour and a half later,
the punctures and the incision
had been closed, the collapsed
lung had bee reflated. A tube
leading from’ the chest cavity
*was left in place so that un
wanted air could escape.
For almost three days, John
lay in the recovery room with
one physician or another near
him.
Yesterday, the youth was
taken to the men’s ward where
he will remain until he can
return home and get well
enough to go back to work.
Soon, another installment
will be due on his girl’s ring.

State Judge
Bars CORE
In Alabama
MONTGOMERY. Ala, Feb. 3
(AP).—A State judge issued a
court order today prohibiting
the Congress of Racial Equality
from operating in Alabama.
Circuit Judge Walter B. Jones
signed the temporary restrain
ing order barring CORE—spon
sor of Freedom Rides into Ala
bama last May—at the request
of Attorney General McDonald
Gallion.
A few hours earlier Secretary
of State Bettye Frink rejected
a CORE application seeking to
register to do business in Ala
bama as a foreign corporation.
In December Judge Jones is
sued a permanent injunction
forbidding the National Asso
ciation for the Advancement of
Colored People from function
ing in Alabama.
In addition to its attack on.
separate racial facilities at bus
stations here last May, CORE
was accused by Mr. Gallion of
sponsoring the current sit-in
movement at Huntsville.
“We have no room In Ala
bama for such groups who seek
to create racial agitation, vio
lence, and disregard local and;
State laws,” he said.
Race riots erupted in Mont
gomery last May 20 when a bi
racial group of Freedom Riders
arrived by bus. Limited martial
law was declared for a week and
several hundred United States
marshals were rushed here.
Observer Makes
Bow as National
Sunday Weekly
The National Observer, a
national Sunday weekly pub
lished by Dow Jones & Co, Inc,
makes it first appearance to
day.
A standard-sized newspaper
with six columns instead of the
traditional eight, the Observer
plans a maximum of 32 pages
an issue with no more than 16
pages of advertising. The price
per copy is 25 cents.
The Observer noted in its
initial editorial that it was
taking the form of a weekly
paper, “our oldest form of
journalism.” But, it said it
would differ from the familiar
weekly paper “in that our com
munity is the whole Nation.”
The newspaper is being
printed and distributed from
three Dow Jones plants in
Washington, Chicago and
Chicopee Falls, Mass, and all
copies are identical in news and
advertising matter.
Six stories, three pictures and
a brief foreign news summary
appear on the front page of
the first issue. The lead story
is an account of the spread of
police scandals across the
Nation.
On the feature side, there is
a front-page story on spring
fashions and articles elsewhere
on bridge, books, movies, sports,
theater and the like.
7-YEAR-OLD GIRL
FOLLOWS ADVICE
TOO LITERALLY
TORONTO, Feb. 3
Someone told 7-year-old
Heather Whyte last night
to “get lost.” And she did.
Two hundred policemen
and Civil Defense corpsmen
conducted a lengthy search
for her today, after she had
been missing all’night, and
found her at the home of
a friend.
Police said whoever told
Heather to get lost was
only joking.
Year at Sea Is Enough
For Girl 'Mess Boy'
HOUSTON, Tex., Feb. 3 (AP).
—Boys—not girls—usually an
swer the call of the sea.
But Agatha Johnson, 23, is
an exception. The blond, blue
eyed lass always wanted to see
the sea.
“And oh boy, have I seen it,”
she said today.
Last year—3o,ooo miles ago
—the California college student
interrupted a trip from San
Francisco to New York to sign
on a Norwegian ship at New
Orleans as a mess boy. Since
then she has seen the Coral
Sea, the South China Sea, the
Sea of Japan and a lot of ocean
between.
“Now I just want to see a
bit of land for a change," she
said with a sigh.
Her ship, the SS Gisna, is
docked in Houston now. The
next stop is New Orleans and
the end of Agatha’s wandering
for a while.
"I’ve got to go back to
school,” she said, “apart from
the fact I can't take any more
seascape.”
Someone suggested "it might
be good fun to work on a ship
and see the world,” she said,
“so I signed on as a mess boy.”
That means she waits on
! tables in the junior officers’
mess. And it means she has
had some memorable experi
ences.
“I ran into a number of very
romantically-inclined young
I men,” she said.
Laotian Leader Gives
Cease-Fire Approval
LUANG PRABANG, Laos, Feb. 3 (AP). Gen. Phoumi
Nosavan, the right-wing strongman of the royal government,
gave the international control commission a go-ahead today to
seek a cease-fire at Nam Tha, but fighting increased at the out
! post village in northwest Laos.
Maj. Gen. Bounleuth Sanichanh, commander-in-chief of the
Laotian army, who declared
several days ago the village 100
miles north of this royal capital
would be defended at all costs,
landed at the Nam Tha airstrip
under mortar fire to inspect his
troops.
Officers accompanying him
said rebel Pathet Lao and Com
munist forces fired three rounds
from their 120-mm. mortars
from positions about three
miles away as the general
landed, but did not hit his C 47
transport.
Patrol skirmishes and small
arms fire increased in intensity,
other officers reported, but gov
ernment defense lines were said
to be holding firm.
Gen. Nosavan, deputy pre
mier in the pro-American royal
government, told newsmen he
had agreed to a suggestion of
the Indian - Polish - Canadian
control commission that it go
to the Plaines des Jarres, rebel
VFW Head Hits
Extreme Right
The National Commander
in-Chief of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars last night called
on his organization to take a
"serious look at the resurgence
of pseudo-Americanism harm
ful to our national posture.”
Robert E. Hansen of South
St. Paul, Minn., Issued the call
as the VFW prepared to open
its annual midwinter confer
ence, with more than 600 State
and national leaders meeting at
the Sheraton - Park Hotel
through Tuesday.
The VFW chief expressed
concern at the rise of the ex
treme right wing. Noting that
his organization passed its first
resolution calling for abolish
ment of communism in this
country in 1926, he said:
"There is no organization in

The record has been con

resolution at the last national
convention which reads:
“Some organizations in the
I United States are resorting to

; name-calling methods, using
innocent, loyal people as their
targets. Such acts are un

"We fight communism, but

[ methods, such as lies, threats,
force, appeals to prejudice and
to the baser emotions. The
VFW condemns any organiza

ACCOUNTANTS RISC
TO PRCSIDCNCICS
Recently Lynn A. Townsend and Gerald L. Phillippe, both account
ants, became presidents respectively of the Chrysler Corporation
and the General Electric Co. Such a choice is logical because the
Accounting Department provides the best possible schooling for
managerial positions. Accountants have also headed such cor
porations as American Cyanamid, Celanese Corporation of Amer
ica, Crucible Steel, Ford, General Motors, National Biscuit, Western
Union, to name just a few. The list of accountancy trained men
and women who have risen to executive posts in
business and government is a long one and includes
hundreds of Benjamin Franklin graduates. A par
tial list of these successful graduates will be found
in our Bulletin which is yours for the asking.
