Dr. Crile Crisler, resident in surgery at Johns Hopkins Hos- pital, guest speaker yesterday, discussed recent developments in heart surgery. He used a series of slides to illustrate his talk and finally concluded with a running commentary as the heart transpla.nt was pictured. The Cumberland Rotary Club, which ordinarily meets at 12:15 p.

each Tuesday at. Central YMCA, was host for yesterday's meeting. Although the Rotary Club provided the largest single group yesterday, other service clubs also were represented. There also were a number of women in attendance including nurses and members of the Epsilon Sigma Alpha sorority which is sponsoring a Heart Fund benefit dance. Surgery Benefit Dr.

Crisler said that heart surgery can benefit most pati- ents with congenital defects, most patients with diseased heart valves and some patients with coronary artery diseases. Among the new developments which he illustrated with slides was the artibicial heart valve which can be implanted in a heart. The major trouble with such valves is that clotting often occurs. Another slides diagram trac- ed the development of cardiac pacemakers which began with transitorized device carried in a pouch. This was developed in 1957.

Dr. Crisler paid tribute to the cooperation of engineers with the medical profession in the development of these devices. Doctors know what they want but it takes the particular skills of engineers to develop them, he said. The Hopkins doctor had a sample of an artificial heart with him yesterday. There has been considerable experimenta- tion with artificial hearts im- planted in dogs but they are still! considered relatively crude de- vices.

Experts believe that with- in three-to-five years the artific- ial hearts may-be developed suf- ficiently to be implanted in hu- Bcrnslein.jman beings. When he began discussing secretary, and Earl M.

Patronage Grab Battled By GOP Republicans Assail Emergency Label By GEOIJGE BOWEN ANNAPOLIS (AP) numbered Republicans battled Tuesday to slow down a patronage reach by the crats by challenging its con- stilutioinality. Minority party representatives assailed the emergency label on a bill lo allow Democratic Gov. Marvin Mande! to appoint two Democrats instead of one on the three-member local boards of election supervisors. By declaring it an emergency, the bill would become effective immediately upon passage and would not be subject to petition to a public vote.

The attorney general has been asked for' an opinion on its constitutionality. The nominations by Mandel are due in the Senate by Feb. be the featured speaker at thei meeting of the Western Mary- land Section of the American Chemical Society Thursday at 1. Without the emergency vision, the patronage bill would not become effective until July Mason's Barn. Thursday's program will be- gin with a social hour at p.m.

Cabinet System For 246 State Agencies Urged By JOHN WOODFIELD ANNAPOLIS (AP) A com- mittee studying reorganization of the executive branch of state government released a report Tuesday suggesting the estab- lishment of a cabinet system.

asked Don R. Kendall, speaking for the Republican State Central Committee. If there isn't any, he said, the bill then was a "cheap grab for patronage and a pelty power play." What the Democrats are try- ing to do is amend the law they passed only last year which de- fined the majority party as the one whose candidate was elect, ed governor. The law also al. lowed the governor to appoint two members of his party as county or city election super- visors and a third from the other party.

Definition Involved The Democrats want to rede, fine the majority party as the one to which the incumbent governor belongs. This would give Mandel 24 additional nomi- nations as supervisors. "If Spiro Agnew had stayed on the job as governor you wouldn't have this problem to- day," Sen. Roy Slaten, D-Balto County, told Republicans at the committee hearing. Sen.
