problem because its plastic and metal components are inert and are accepted by the body.
Schroeder, who had been given less than a week to live with his own diseased heart, was kept on a respirator to help his breathing, and the air tube running down his throat allowed him from talking. He was tranquilized to minimize discomfort from the breathing tube.
The respirator tube will be removed in a day or two, Lansing said, but the two plastic air holes that enter Schroeder's skin in the chest move from the heart must remain for the rest of his life.
SCHROEDER WAS BEING supported by a $40,000 console beside his bed, but doctors hope to be able to use an 11-pound, shoulder-carryed device for a few hours at a time. The portable unit developed in West Germany will allow the patient to walk around.
THE JARVIK-7 ARTIFICIAL heart was working normally and doctors started to increase its output slowly to bring closer to normal. This allowed the heart through Schroeder's veins every minute.
Lansing said Schroeder's kidneys and lungs were functioning satisfactorily, all though X-rays showed some blood residue in the lungs. A second drainage tube was inserted in his chest and a later X-rhy showed the lungs were clearer
Barney Clark, the retired dentist who received the first permanent artificial heart two years ago, had a variety of postoperative complications and finally died of tuberculosis colon infection caused in part by heavy antibiotic use to quell pneumonia.
Clark's widow, Una Loy, praised Schroeder's family members for their courage and said the mechanical heart worked well for Clark despite his problems.
"HE HAD SO many complications," she said from her home near Seattle. "That's what made it so hard for him. I hope Mr. Schroeder doesn't have complications like that."
"I would hope he lives for six months," Cooley said. "But a year's survival might be a bit too much to expect."
In Houston, Denton Cooley, who performed two temporary artificial heart implants in 1969 and 1981, said he would be surprised if Schroeder lived a year with the mechanical heart.
Cooley also said Schroeder probably would spend the rest of his life in a hospital and would have had a better chance at long-term survival had he received a human heart. Survival teammates was ruled out because of Schroeder's age and the fact that he had diabetes.

or racks disappear," he said. "I guess that's all part of being a newspaper."
But one member of Praxis, a student group that publishes a left-wing newsletter, said about U. Press, "It's not a newspaper. It's a propaganda sheet."
STU SHAFFER, one of Praxis' editorial staff members, said many people might call Praxis' newsletter a propaganda sheet. But the way U.S. Press is distributed gives the paper an 'unfair advantage' over other ideologically oriented publications, he said.
"With the papers sitting there, free for the taking, they've more or less got a captive audience," he said. "That's one of the ironies of a free press. If we had the money or the backing, we could do something like this, too."
Praxis publishes its newsletter four times a year at a cost of 50 cents an issue. About 250 copies of each issue are printed and distributed at local outlets, Shafer said.
Kirk Kidwell, U.S. Press managing editor, said last week from the publication's offices that he would be back to work next week.
present the Judeo-Christian ethic in national and international news coverage.
MOST PUBLICATIONS HAVE a "humanistic" philosophy that views man as the center of the universe, said Kidwell, who is a born-again Christian.
"But the paper is not targeted to just Christians or Jews or Catholics or Methodists; it's targeted to the general population, 'Kidwell said.' We believe there is a national conservative voice in the service of a popular, general interest newspaper."
The paper runs several domestic and international news stories in every issue, as well as sports, entertainment, comics and a crossword puzzle.
About 100,000 copies of U.S. Press are distributed to 88 cities across the United States.
U. S. Press regularly runs first-person inspirational features, "Proverbs for Living and a column by Bishop Clark, Bishop Kirkwell described as a "Christian Dear Abby"."
THE PAPER DOES not label itself as a religious or conservative publication, but Kidwell said he didn't think that misled readers.
"It's definitely a conservative paper. If you read the paper, you see that we don't hide that fact," he said. "USA Today doesn't label itself as America's liberal daily."
The paper's publisher, Jim McCotter, is a pastor and the president of Great Commissions inc. which Kidwell described as "an amazing company" that reached the world with the Gospel.
Great Commissions attracts subscribers or U.S. Press and organizes church conferences.
Jay Smith, Prairie Village graduate student and treasurer for the New Life Student Fellowship, said that several members of the fellowship met the paper's organizers during a summer leadership training conference in Washington, D.C.

Mother of slain twins links coins to suspect
By United Press International
HUTCHINSON — The mother of twin boys abducted and slain with their teenage baby sitter testified yesterday that a bag of coins taken from her house the day of the abduction matched some coins allegedly cashed in by the suspect.
Deborah Vogelsang, the twins' mother, solemnly glanced back and forth between her questioner and Arnold Ruebke Jr., the 18-year-old man accused of killing her sons, Andy and James Vogelsang, 2, and their baby sister, Tammy Mooney, 18. The victims were from Arlington in south central Kansas.
The first day of Ruebke's preliminary hearing began yesterday with testimony from Vogelsang; Bill Lorg, who was Mooney's boyfriend; and Randy Smith, who discovered the bodies Nov. 1 several hundred yards from the Vogelsang farm.
Arlington on Oct 29, the day of the abduction, is charged with three counts, each of first-degree murder and kidnapping in the shotgun slayings.
Ruebke, who moved to Kingman from
Frank Meisenheimer, assistant Reno County attorney, alleged during opening arguments that Rueckel had cashed in the contents of a cloth pouch filled with penny and other coins taken from the Vogelsang house.
Vogelshang testified that about $5 in pennies, a couple of mickels and a Mercury-head dime stored in a purple pouch were on a bedroom dresser the other day when she left for work. When she returned to evening, the pouch was gone, she said
After the arrest of Ruebke on Nov. 4, Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents showed her several pennies and the Mercury-head dime, which appeared to be among those she had in the pouch, Vogelsang testified. Several of the pennies were corroded to a green color, which helped her identify them, she said.

portion of the building's maintenance expenses would result from non-athletic department use.
The Sports Pavilion may be open to the public by fall 1985, Johnson said. The amount of time the public can use the Sports Pavilion has not been determined.
Gary Stolts, chief analyst for the state budget division, said his office's recommendation was made to generate discussion, not notation. KU money to maintain the Sports Pavilion.
Stotts said the state wanted to discuss the
Sports Pavilion's maintenance and utility costs to help establish a policy for maintaining other public buildings built with private funds.
"We really haven't taken a position," Stotts said. "What we have actually done is a lack of position. We find it a better tool, and we discuss it and we keep things out of the budget."
Nitcher said discussing budget requests was a valid reason to omit a request from the budget proposal. But financing maintenance was not part of the monies was a long standing policy, he said.
