(AP) There is a problem of overcrowding in the University of Wisconsin Medical School these days, not of students but of cadavers. "There has been a flurry donation forms during the last ment said anatomy depart- chalrman Dr. David Slaulterback. "We are presently operating at our highest levels." Donation forms are filed with the department, mostly-by persons over 65, although some are frotn people in their 20s.

The bodies are claimed after death if relatives have no objections. Slaullerback said the department receives about 50 donation forms a month now, and has at least 2,000 on file. That compares with not more than" 25 incoming forms i 1972 and a file then of about 400. That's some cause for conc SJautterback safd. "We're going to have to do some very careful looking at what's going on." The school uses about 80 cajtavars a year, four students per body, compared with 22 in 1958.

The bodies for dissection in beginning medical school anatomy courses and in medical research. The number needed has grown proportionately with the enrollment in medical school. "It's such a delicate subject," Slautterback said, stressing careful balance between the number of cadavers needed and the number donated. He said no one wants to offend potential donors by turning down a contribution, r.or do they want solicit contributions openly for fear of being swamped. The (rend to reply on donated cadavers is relatively recent.

In the not too distant past, the anatomy department. depended on unclaimed bodies received from state Now, veterans benefits 'and government aids help pay for funerals. No one is paid for the contribution, Salutterback said. "None of us wants to be in the business of trafficking in bodies; that's horrible," But, considering the cost of a funeral these days, donating a body to medical research could be quite an inflation fighter, although Slaulterback would not call it a motive for the donation. "We make a point of not inspecting people's motives very closely," he said.

"1 can't imagine that the primary motive is the cost of a funeral."

The consumer may gel a little less for his dollar, but we think 'this other problem is of much greater importance," said C. Colton Carr, laboratory chief for the department, of the work on the contaminated feed. Tens of thousands of farm animals, including at least 10,000 cattle, already have been destroyed because they ate feed laced with a toxic fire rctar- dant. Another 9,000 cattle have been quarantined by the state and may face eventual slaughter and mass burial because their bodies contain unsafe levels of the chemical, Carr said most of the tests which what are he suffering deal with called "economic dentally mixed with animal feed in lieu of a nutrient.

The chemicals were distributed by the Michigan Chemical Co. in St. Louis, which faces a $277 million lawsuit from the state, Farmers are seeking $15 million from the chemical company and the farm agency. Department officials said they have transfered five chemists from other duties onto the feed problem.
