House Approves Measure for
Governor to Issue Complimentary
Hunting and Fishing Licenses
JUNEAU — A bill which
would permit the governor to
issue complimentary hunting and
fishing licenses to distinguished
guests of the state passed the
House by a vote of 25-42 Wednes
day.
But it was subjected to some
legislative sharp-shooting before
it got by the lower chamber.
The House amended out a
clause in the measure which
would have exempted the guests
from payment of non-resident and
alien big game tags.
One of the measure’s authors
Rep. Harold Hansen objected that
such action would reduce the dis
tinguished visitors to the scale
of a “bunch of hunters.”
“All this bill tries to do is to
grant the governor the privilege
of extending a courtesy — the
courtesy of the State of Alaska—
to distinguished guests,” Hansen
said.
“I am sure such visiting digni
taries would be willing and able
to buy their own big game tags,”
said .Rep. Jay Hammond, who of
fered the 'amendment.
Rep. Forbes Baker said that
since the bill limits the governor
to 20 complimentary licenses, he
figured the governor might have
a problem in deciding who would
be important enough to receive
one.
Rep. Robert Blodgett spoke in
favor of the bill, but aeain.ct the
amendment.
“This measure would not only
foster national good will, but in
ternational good will as well,”
Blodgett said.
“It is possible that Nikita —
who lives across the pond from
my village — might go hunting
on Kodiak Island after the great
brown bear.”
“If Khrushchev would come to
Alaska, I’d go along with this
bill,” remarked John Hellenthal.
“If the governor issued Khrush
chev a complimentary big game
tag, we wouldn’t have to worry
about the next election,” retorted
Republican minority leader Bruce
Kendall.

New Laws
On Adoption
Pass House
> JUNEAU (If) — A bill codifying
[ and updating Alaska’s laws on
adoption passed the House unani
mously and was sent to the Sen
i ate for consideration in the upper
chamber.
The measure was the result of
; extensive research by both the
, Judiciary Committee and the
Health, Education and Welfare
Committee.
It makes a number of changes
in the State’s present adoption
laws. These include:
1. “Selling” a child, or accept
ing compensation in excess of
r actual medical, legal or living ex
, penses is a misdemeanor.
2. A mother’s consent for the
. adoption of her child cannot be
r obtained until two days alter
the birth of the child.
3. A court may determine with
in 30 days after the presentation
of a petition for adoption whether
the petition will be granted. At
the end of the 30-day period, if
all is in order, the adpotion will
be final. Appeals may be made
in the same manner as provided
for appeals in other civil matters.
4. The law limits the child’s
right of inheritance to the adop
tive parents only.
Before final passage, the House
amended out a clause in the bill
which would have permitted the
court to direct that a social study
be made on the proposed adoption.
It was argued that the courts
already have the right to order
such studies.

have anything to do with these
cases,” said Rep. Wm. Erwin in
speaking for the amendment.
Rep. James Parsons replied that
he could see no reason why law
makers objected to such a per
missive clause “when these studies
are mandatory in many other
states.*’
“Alaska isn’t ready for these
pre-adoption studies,” said Rep.
John Hellenthal.
“They might be needed 10 years
from now — but not while we're
still a frontier country.”

X-RAYS AND YOU-I
i Walt Disney Techniques (Plus Time Lapse
Movies) Help Medicine
Nearly everybody has seen the
alow motion or “time lapse”
tnovie films that show the beauty
of the plant kingdom in its
growth. Flowers open before our
eyes and plants twist and turn in
their growth toward the sun.
How is it done? Very simple.
Photographs are taken at periodic
intervals and then are run to
gether on film. This compresses
time and allows the human eye
to perceive change and growth
otherwise invisible.
This movie technique has been
known for some time. But to Dr.
Howard J. Barn hard, radiologist,
University of Arkansas Medical
School, this posed an interesting
question. Why couldn't this same
time lapse technique be applied
in his medical specialty, radi
ology? Dr. Barnhard, in his pro
fession, studied x-ray films of
bones and other structures of the
body in diagnosing disease. In
addition, why not use x-ray film
in the same manner that, say
Walt Disney does in animating
his nature films? Three years ago
Dr. Barnhard began to study this
project which combines anima
tion with time lapse photo
graphy.
In a recent report on his results,
Dr. Barnhard said the findings
have shed new light on bone
growth and the healing of frac
tures. Besides this, he said the new
technique is proving very useful
in research and teaching.
Describing the project, Dr.
Barnhard said the procedure in
volved making x-ray films of a
fracture in an experimental ani
mal's foreleg at intervals during
a period of observation lasting
weeks or months. The interval
x-ray films were then put together
like the separate frames of a mo
tion picture, which would create
the impression of movement.
Since the eye more readily per
ceives motion than still images,
the process of change is actually
intensified to the observer. Thus,
the doctor shows bones clearly
growing together right before
your eyes.
This is the first in a series of
reports on recent advances in
the diagnostic and therapeu
tic use of medical x-rays.
Today's report discusses a
new way to study bone
growth. Subsequent articles
will deal with heart disease
and cancer. n
According to Dr. Barnhard,
this method of time lapse study
can be applied to many bone pro
cesses, such as normal bone
growth and development, normal
fracture repair, and healing across
a bone defect and bone diseases.
New uses could be found as well.
They would include a wide field
of medical research such as stud
ies of the effect of stapling the
growth areas of the bones during
the growing period, the response
of various parts of growing bone
or mature bone to irradiation, the
reaction of joints to foreign mat
ter, and the study of bone tumor
growth and its response to treat
ment.
Thus, a simple idea acquired
while watching a movie proved
to be an exciting and successful
medical project.
