WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING Plastic Surgery Regcues Wounded | A flier comes to Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead, Eng- land, minus a nose and goes out with an even better-looking one fashioned from his hip. Men who have lost their eyelids and weep constantly as a result, stop crying. They are fitted with brand new lids made from the in- . side skin of their arms_ Miracles of plastic surgery are taking place in this remote Eng- lish village. More than 7,000 op-- crations Lave been performed since the hospitai was opened four years -ago. Most of the patients are men who have looked in the mirror and said: "I'l never be able to work again or marry. I won't even be able to face "other people." * * . Yet, after one or two operations they are amazed to find that they have enough confidence to go, al- ways with another patient, to a factory where they work in pairs. Some, awaiting further sur- gery, may have wire cages on the lower half of their faces instead of jaws. They my be facing twenty- five more operations extending over two years, Yet many have been offered post-war jobs by the factory management. Fliers with hands burns, with blackened faces, re- ceive new skin. Half a missing hand is made out of thick skin from the stomach, a part of the green from ply. New eyebrows are made from a patient's hair. Noses come from hips, because the hip is casy to get at and is easily carved, = * . . Somehow this hospital manages to be a cheery place. Patients won't brood in solitude over their disfigurement. They can always fiad someone else who is worse _ body that has a good blood sup- off. They roam the town, going to dances and "drinking beer at the pub. An RAF sergeant lives with them as their father confessor, and, if necessary, their companion on "binges". They ¢an have beer at their mess; and they wear their regular uniform instead of dreary "hospital blue." They play bil liards ard cricket and read, not discarded novel. that people have given away to clear their book- shiclves, but current best sellers. Precision Bombing In Spite Of Clouds The BBC said last week a new instrument that helps Allied bombers * strike targets through thick clouds and fog was describ ed by a Swedish scientist as a "telephonotographic ' apparatus with infra-red rays." The unnamed scientist's de. scription of the secret weapon published in the Dagens Nyheter of Stockholm declared it enabled the RAF to 'carry out precision bombings on Berlin in spite of clouds and obscurity." "Thanks to this apparatus, the pilots inside the planes above the clouds can study their. course just 'as if they were looking through ordidary eye glasses," the scientist was quoted as say- ing in the broadeast recorded by B.S.
