Acupuncture Puts Scientists On Pins and Needles Study
By SHARYN BALLARD Kansan Staff Writer
In a few years, being "on pins and needles" may no longer be a worn-out clinic about a state of emergency. A someday refer to relief from pain
From behind the bamboo curtain has come the news of a mysterious anesthetic—acupuncture.
Anesthetists and medical scientists are beginning careful study of this Chinese pain-killer by which surgery can be per-fered, in some slender needles inserted in particular places in the body.
Western medical men are often accused of but the public leaped onto the idea, according to Dr. Kasuki Arakawa, associate professor at UCLA.
"EVERYTHING that's new and makes such great ideas by the pulpit comes from hypnosis a few years back, has caught the public eye," said Cynthia.
"A new bride is always nice and sweet when she is first married. In a few days, the husband finds out whether he has a special gift or a nagging shrew. Acupuncture is the same. It is hailed now by the public as a great new anesthetic which will cure all. Medical people will study the bone and remain skeptical," he said.
Acupuncture seems to have some effect as a pain-reliving remedy. Akraka said, although the practice it does not work for everyone.
"APCUPUNCTURE is practiced in other Southeast Asian countries, but was considered quackery. We did not even study in medical schools and are not chiropractic healing is in the United States," Arkawaka said.
He plans to go back to Tokyo to
further investigate the technique at the College of Acupuncture this summer.
The art of acupuncture has been practiced for 5,000 years, but only since 1963 has acupuncture been accorded an official accord according to Chinese reports.
"AT AIST," it thought maybe hyponasis was behind the no-pain step. "You can jump from China where they acupuncture on a horse, and the horse showed no pain. That man should have been hyponasitic you couldn't hypnotize a horse."
The Chinese have a theory that the needles act through 12 pairs of meridians or ducts that lead to specific internal organs, and that they flow from the needles acts to restore a healthy balance of life fluids.
But no meridians or ducts show up under the best electron microscope, and most doctors have generally reputedly good effects from medical acupuncture to suggest that someone cares to help you.
"Some doctors believe acupuncture may be an electrical anesthesia." Arakawa said, "but there are many other theories."
the major factor in any illness
is what we must not be
misguised.
chiropratologists might start using
acupuncture on people who have
not been properly diagnosed.
What seems to be a chronic pain
thoroughly research and find out all we can accord to acupuncture, he said. "After all, pain is a very important factor in any illness."
HOWEVER AMAZING and astonishing this pennemonon is, Arakawa warned against a tool that can cause acceptance of acupuncture.
"Perhaps the cancer could have been removed if it were caught in time, but instead of being properly examined and treated, the patient might have needed lessly the treatments and die needlessly."
'First of all, we must
"Even though there are risks involved in any use of anesthesia, it is the most important and safest method for the avoidance of pain."
Editor's Note: This is the fifth in a series of articles on industry and business in Lawrence.

Kansan Staff Writer
it takes more than people to support a community. The amount of industry located in a town often can make or break it. Burnett Instruments, a unique product of hometown entrepreneurship, contributes to the lawrence stability of Lawrence.
Medical Supplies Made in City
Disposable plastic medical instruments from this Kaw River town company are used daily by a physician in Bangkok, Thailand. The team checks the burners in Canberra, Australia, a doctor uses Burnett equipment to set an athlete's fire. They move the patient away in Capetown, South Africa, a patient blesses the moist mechanical warmth applied to his arbital hands during weekly exercise. His burnett equipment is used.
Nearly $1.25 million worth of equipment will be shipped this year to markets that include Japan, Thailand, Australia, South Africa, most European countries and in the United States.
Burnett Instruments, since 1970, a division of C. R. B. Card, N.J., manufactures three sets of instruments for the instruments for one-time examination use, orthopedic equipment that makes hospital cast rooms' obsolete and more accessible, also primarily disposable.
BY FAR, the bread-and-butter
beetle is equipped with a
species speculum for use in
all routine vaginal examinations.
According to Jim Macdon plant
manufacturer, all these plastic instruments are
shipped from Burnett's plant at
Sacramento.
Burnett produces the SPECLITE, a light source for CORET, which provides 360- degree anal inspection; and a NASA-SPEC, a nasal diagnostic examination tool. Other products burnett offers.
The disposable line of plastics is designed to prevent cross infections and free skilled personnel from coming in contact, and the lastic allows more patient relief from thermal heat than do traditional metal instruc
shields, toe caps and cast-related equipment.
Martin said in a recent interview that the company was founded in 1961 by Gene Burnett, a former representative for a manufacturing concern. Burnett grew up in Lawrence, attended public schools here and decided to start this family enterprise at home.
The company's local orientation is characterized by close ties to the KU, both of which are on the receiving end of the Burnet's enterprise.
Although Burnet Instruments banks only operating capital in Lawrence, because it is a division of the company, about $4.000 worth of business per month with the Lawrence training firms of Graham Ship Lawrence and Lawrence Freight Line, Inc. Martin declined to reveal Burnet's share of property taxes to support the City of Lawrence.
A Topeka contractor built the ocean shell for the squash but it was an all-local effort of Lawrence builders that completed the building.
All 30 Burnett employees live in Lawrence or the Lawrence trading area. The majority of the non-union workers are women. Martin said the routine, quality control plastic assembly seemed to be the best in Iowa. Five men have been interested in jobs on the assembly line.
THE employ cafeteria in the new 12,000 square foot addition completed last January is stocked with food purchased from Lawrence grocery stores and restaurants. Packer Plastics, inc., another local company, supplies a large portion of the raw material
Council Meeting Planned
A University Council meeting meeting at 23 p.m. today in 108 Sheldon to discuss desirability of an ad hoc committee to investigate University
"We don't know why the Council should reconsider a committee that proved but whatever their reason we maintain our commitment to ensure that we are a mattee," said Michael Bradley, member of the Haiphong group.
The Sen-Ex worked with the Hapathong Coalition to establish and investigate research projects on their social implications.
At the meeting the Haiphong Coalition will attempt to present a plan for enhancing their demands for an investigation of University violence.
Coalition though had been dissatisfied with the progress of Sen-Ex concerning the research committee.
The Coalition thought that some worthwhile plans had been made for the research committee. They made it clear however that any reduction of the committee's function or its size would be considered an example of bad faith on part of the University.
"We hope to be able to participate in the deliberations of the University Council," said Professor Richard Sack, who it that it is imperative to careful study research which is taking place on campus and feel that researchers and other concerned members of the University Council benefit from a careful study of the implications of that research."
goal of the research committee was "to assist in the utilization of research in the interest of mankind."
Bradley said that the broader

Campaign for Donations To Fight MS Underway
The Douglas Chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Association is finishing a three-year campaign to raise funds to fight MS.
Last night was the focal point in the effort, when more than 390 house canvas for contribution. Larry Beeh, chairman of the local chapter, said he expected to mount collected later this week.
More than 393 block workers volunteered through telephone solicitations. Heeb said. Most of the volunteers are house-to-house campaign. They left self-addressed stamped envelopes so contributions could be mailed to Mrs. James Huff, UMS chief officer, UNM MS associator treasurer.
HEEB ALREADY has some encouraging results. Edgar Wolfe, professor of English, was in charge of collecting conference materials for Kansas faculty and staff. More than $700 has been sent by KU people so far, surpassing the amount donated last year.
THE THIRD portion of the fund-raising effort consists of MS 'treasure chests' placed in more than 20 law offices. Lawrence. Next week, those banks will be picked up and donated in them will be counted.
Hebre reported that there were two more phases of the Douglas County chapter's campaign still in progress. Corlett Cotton, making an effort to get contributions from commerce and industry.
According to Heeb, 60 per cent of the collections will remain in the local area to help fund perennials for victims. The MS Association's Home Service Program helps provide for persons confined in wheelchairs therapy in their homes and at an MS center in Topeka.
The other 40 per cent of the donations goes to the national organization, where it will help finance research by such groups as the American Psychological Associations in finding cures and therapies for multiple sclerosis.
