Dr. McDermott heads the medical team trying to keep the woman alive. The patient,, suf- fering from a diseased liver, was said to be near death when she agreed to the procedure, known as a “porcine liver per- fusion.”

If she survives, the woman would be the first one saved by ‘the new technique. But Dr. Mc- Dermott said it is already a success, from a scientific view- point.

But because it's just a hobby he’s stil] eating, and he likes the work

“A man who takes the time to turn out the best just can’t compete with the cheaper out- fits now coming in from China,” he says. “‘Those Chinese outfits, including the case, sell for less than’ I pay for the wood.”

Mr. Irwin served an appren- ticeship in blacksmithing and carpentry for the carriage-mak- {ng trade in Lucknow, Ont.. and later worked. on construction jobs

Since his retirement he can usually be found in the work- shop behind his Shakespeare home, seven miles east of Strat- ford, amid an orderly litter of violin parts, special wood and tools

DIVIDED CITY PROSPEROUS

Ancient Jerusalem Becomes Boom Town

By DAVID LANCASHIRE

JERUSALEM, Jordanian Sec- tor ‘AP'i—The Holy City, where Christ lived and died, has be- come. a boom town

Built on Biblical history and ringed with guns against the threat of war with Israel, Arab Jerusalem is ignoring the dan- ger. spreading in all directions and welcoming more than 1.000 tourists a day.

“The city hasn't been so pros- perous since the’ Romans '‘eft,” says one official.

Jerusalem has even called in a British city planner to control the growth. Thickets of new ho- tels are springing up—including one atop the Mount of Olives— fleets of American cars honk past donkeys and women bal- ancing pots on their heads. and new suburbs sprawl! outside the ancient city walls. Inside the walls, encircling the most hal- lowed shrines of Christendom, the medieval city is untouched.

AS IN BERLIN

Jerusalem is divided between Arabs and Jews, with an armed barrier running through its cen- tre. much like Berlin, with the old city of the Bible on the Arab side. Israel's half of the city is expanding even faster than Jor- dan's

The boom on Jordan's side 1s caused by tourists who come to explore the ruins of ancient civ- llization, such as the red-rock desert city of Petra, and the pil- grims.who throng to pray at the manger in Bethlehem where Christ was born. or the iomb in Jerusalem where he was bur- ted. Last year the visitors spent $15,000,000.

“The tourist industry is the only resource Jordan has got,” says Abdul Rahman Aburabah of Jerusalem's tourist author- ity. “It is more than the basis of our economy—it is our life

“And. praise God, the tourist business is very good.

HAS 6 HOTELS

“In 1949. after the war with Israel, we had only one recog- Rized tourist hotel, on this side. Now we have more than 60, and

venir shops then and 140 now.

as well on another instrument, | even a better one. Mr. Irwin re- | called a visitor who brought him a $9,000 violin—‘‘that’s what he said he paid for it’—who was unable to “get what he wanted from it.”

The man discovered he could play better with one of Mr. Ir-

win's violins. “But he didn't leave the $9,000 instrument ly- | ,ing around.”

| Mr. Irwin said the best violin wood is imported from Europe —maple for the back, sides and | neck, and spruce for the top. He said he has repaired hun- dreds of violins ‘but never seen a genuine Stradivarius.’ There are a lot of fake antiques. Mr. Irwin, who once played for dances; said the advent of the guitar and jazz have ousted the violin. He still visits local fiddlers’ contests but does not compete The “old timers” young fellows now, he said. | And he has never tried his | hand at making a bow—‘‘that's a field for other experts.”

_Now we have dozens of travel agencies and 200 licensed guides

“We. had... 387,000. visitors in “1964. including 247 Russians, and we will have more this year.”

Despite the boom, visitors in- side the massive stone walls can visualize Jerusalem as it was 2,000 years ago, for many of. the sights. are. the same Christ must have seen on his way to the cross:

Vaulted, shadowy streets and teeming oriental bazaars, tato- oed Arab women in embroi- dered gowns, tribesmen in des- ert headdresses driving flocks of sheep through ‘winding alley- ways.

The street of sorrows, retrac- | ing Christ's final footsteps, is! rudely accented with James Bond movie posters and sou- venir shops, and the blare of transistor radios mingles with the scene of incense and spices. but much of the old feeling is there still : !

TAIPEI, Formosa (‘AP'—The Chinese Nationalist government suspended operations by the Taipei Stock Exchange for 10 days Tuesday. The action was taken following allegations of manipulations by speculators who created artificial booms which, when punctured, caused heavy losses to genuine inves- tors. The government dismissed Lin Chung-yung, chairman of the stock exchange.
