Nobel Medical Prize Given For Heart Work
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - (UP) - A German doctor who discovered a new method of diagnosing heart and pulmonary ailments and two American physicians who brought the method to a high state of perfection were jointly awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize for medicine today.
Prof. Dickinson W. Richarson, 60-year old professor of medicine at Columbia University, Frenchborn Dr. Andre Cournand, 61, his associate for 25 years at Columbia, and Germany's 52-year-old Dr. Werner Forssman, shared the $38,833 prize.
Their method involves catheterization of the heart—The slipping into the heart of a tube which permits study of the internal conditions and enhances the value of diagnosis. The medical profession has called it a milestone of medical progress.
Dr. Forsman evolved the method as a young doctor in Berlin in 1929. His colleagues at Eberswalde surgical clinic failed to support him in his research and he experimented on himself.

Nixon 'Shifty,' Stevenson Says
En Route With Stevenson—(UP)—Adlalai Stevenson, using some of his sharpest language of the campaign, denounced Vice President Richard M. Nixon last night as a "shifty" exponent of expediency and a man of many faces.
He said in Flint, Mich., the vice president was unfit for the responsibility of public office and warned that if Republicans are reelected that Mr. Nixon might become president "at any moment."
"Who can say that they have seen his real face," Mr. Stevenson said. "There is no man who can safely say he knows where the vice president stands. This is a man of many masks."
