TO PROVE SHOCK THEORY
DOCTOR OPERATES ON HIMSELF (United Service) (Received 9.5 a.m.) LOS ANGELES, Sunday. TAR. ROBERT NEALE, a surgeon, has always believed that the shock patients suffer following major operations is due more to the anaesthetic than to the operation itself. In order to prove this theory, Dr. Neale operated on himself for appendicitis. Next day he said: " I feel like rising and walking. I am sure I have the strength. I certainly won’t stay in bed the regulation 10 days.”
