PSgs At Duke Suffer Heart Kiiacks For Science's Sake NEWTOUK By inducing heart attacks in pigs, Duke University . scientists have learned that a drug long used to subcbe dangerous heart beat insularities may also be effective in preventing them in the first place.

ChoosI pigs because their coronarjsystem is similar to man's, :&erDuke team pro duced heart attacks in the animals by placing a tiny con strictor around the main coro nary artery. The constrictor is made of stainless steel with a casein or Ameroid centerpiece. It has a small V opening in it so that it can be slipped over the blood vessel. Initially it does not interrupt blood flow. But over a period of between 24 to 48 hours, saline in the body causes the centerpiece to swell and close until finally circulation is stopped and a heart attack is produced. Disturbances in the action of the heart constitute a ser ious complication of heart at tacks. Approximately 20 per cent of fetal heart attacks are a direct result of uncontrolled irregular heart beat, authori ties maintain.

"It seems reasonable to assume," said Dr. James Mor ris, one of the researchers, "that with early treatment with quinidine, this large num ber of deaths might be pre vented." Doctors face an extremely difficult task in attempting to interpret the sequence of events which lead to heart attacks. For this reason, they hesitate to evaluate the ef fects of any drug in the heart attack patient without first studying its action in labora tory animals. In studies done elsewhere, the heart attacks are induced during surgery. The Duke method is different in that the animal has fully recovered from the surgery and is up and walking about in a cage or chamber when the heart at tack occurs. Dr. Morris said that seven " of 20 pigs treated with quini dine survived total shutdown of the artery, compared with : three of 20 pigs not given the drug It was also found that quini dine Increased survival time . among the animals that did not recover. In this group, ani mals treated with quinidine lived an average of 31.3 hours compared with 19.7 hours for those not treated. Dr. Morris emphasized that this type of research does not necessarily assure that quini- dine will be effective in hu mans with abnormal heart beats after the onset of a heart attack.

College fraternity scholastic averages in almost two-thirds of the nation's higher institu tions where chapters are lo cated exceeded the respective All Men's Averages for the previous academic year, ac cording to an analysis releas ed by the National Interfra ternity Conference. A total of 295 institutions with fraternity chapters re ported comparative figures for the academic year 1964-65, the highest number since records have been accumulated by the scholarship reporting service of 1 the Conference. During the year, 62 per cent of the re porting institutions showed campus fraternity averages above the All Men's Averages, involving 3,159 individual fra ternity chapters. The campus - wide fraterni ty scholastic average lead has been going up steadily over the All Men's Average in re porting institutions for the past decade according to the analy sis. The previous two years, the lead held at slightly over 59 per cent of the institutions reporting. When compared on an indi vidual chapter basis . nation wide, and disregarding cam pus averages, the fraternity scholastic averages have maintained a par relationship with All Men's Averages for the past several years. Dur ing those years, as many fra ternity chapters throughout the country were above the All Men's Averages as were those below it. In the academ ic year 1964-65, the. figure was 49 per cent of all fraternity chapters nationwide, while the previous two academic years the figure hovered approxi mately at the 50 per cent mark. A decade ago, only 44 per cent of the chapters were reported over the All Men's Average. In 1964-65, 43 institutions qualified for the Summa Cum Laude rating for superior scholarship where every fra ternity chapter on their re spective campuses exceeded the All Men's Averages. Of these institutions, 7 achieved this signal honor for Jthree consecutive years. They in clude University of Akron, Ar kansas State College, George town College, Murray State College, Texas Technological College, Wisconsin State Col lege at Stevens Point, and Wisconsin State College at Whitewater. No North Carolina College was on the list. Of the 61 national general collegiate fraternity organiza tions, 29 had over a majority , of their individual chapters averaging higher than the All Men's Averages on their re-, spective campuses. In threes cases Alpha Delta Gamma; ! FarmHouse, and Phi Lambda Chi every chapter in their or? ganizations was above the All Men's Average on their respective campuses. ur.
