Escaped ii. S. Soldier Teiis 0f Torture

By Btlll Swinton

WONJU. Korea. Feb. 21 -(AP) -An escaped American soldier said today Chinese Communist troops drenched him with gaso- line, set him ablaze. and then laughed when he begged them to end his suffering with a bullet.

Cold and suffering from third- degree burns. Pte. Robert J. Philiptpen. 20. of Long Beach, N. Y., reached American lines north of Wonju after more than ii doz- en unsuccessful escape nttempts.

He said he was one of a. group captured during a Chinese assault Feb 13

Here is Philippcn'e story:

"I wasina jeepwitha machine- gun mounted on it. Suddenly eight Chinese with automatic weapons stepped in front of us. They kill- ed the other three men in the jeep with me...

"One tried to grab my wrist watch and found I was still alive He poured gasoline all over the jeep and set it aflre, leaving me in the jeep. I managed to fall out of the Jeep all in flames. I looked for a spot of snow to put out the flames. I found a little and rolled off into I. ditch.

"For a minute I was afraid they would shoot. I thought the fire would kill me anyway. But they didn't. They laughed. They stood there and laughed.

"I managed to find another bank of "snow. I rolled in it too. I got up when I thought the fire was out and started to run. The flames started again. I rolled in the snow-ibutthefire still caught again because of the gas. They were all around and I didn't ivant to move. A few ran past me. i begged one to shoot me but he ran past me. '

"I lay there a couple of hours. I raised my head and saw a couple of huddles they had taken prison- er. I raised my arm and waved. They came over and saw myl

clothes were all burned off. Then they (the Reds) permitted me to crawl back on the road. ' '

"We lived on a handful of rice. or anyi.hi'ng we could find lying! around... .

"Last night I got on this road. that leads to Wonju. About 300g came past in groups of three and, four. I'd get down in the ditch and make out I was dead. I kept doing that all night.

"This morning I spotted a plane. I waved and walked one-' half mile. I ran into some Ameri- cans and Frenchmen.

"I was so happy to see them I Just cried."

Daring Attempt To Save Life Of Woman Fails

PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 2i--(AP) '-A 32-year-old woman died today despite a daring lifesaving attempt by Frankford Hospital doctors who pumped her blood through a dead man's kidney.

The doctors didn't give up on their technique. though. They con- tend the experimeni, was not sitc- cessful in saving the woman's life because there was too great a lapse of time between the death of the man and the time his kid- my was put to work to purify her blood.

At the time of the woman's d-eatih doctors said the kidney still was functioning but not efficiently enough to remove the accumulated impurities.

The kidney was removed from the body of Wayne H. Deveney. 30-year-old truck driver killed in a highway accident. and used to try to purify the blood of Mrs. Richard Irvine, mother of three children.

Deveney was killed shortly be- fore 4 am. The kidney was re- moved at 4:46 s.m.. and 15 min- utee later Mris. Irvine's blood be- gun to flow through the spare kid- ney, kept "alive" in I special ap- psretus.

The spare kidney was placed on a clay filter inside a glass jar. Tries carried blood from Mrs. Irvl.ne'a arm into the kidney 'erl- ery. out lie veins and back again into Mrs. Irvine's Inn.

The kidney was kct alive through use. of a salt solution. dripping mate it from an electrically-cosh trolled-device which also kept the kidney warm and moist at a tem-

name not be made public. said that he believes the operation would pivve successful if there were only a brief time gap be- twccn death and removal of the kidney.

The nature of Mrs. Irvine's ail- mcnt was not made public. but the doctor said she could not have

lived because of impurities in her-

blood stream caused by non-func- tionlng of her kidneys.

He said that if the woman's life had been saved, it was likely that her kldneys could have been re- stored to normal usefulness.

There have been -other types of techniques used in similar ail- ments but in none of these was use of the kidneys restored.

In Chicago. an experiment was tried eight months ago during

, which a dead woman's kidney was

transplanted into the body of Mrs. Tucker. 44.

Mrs. Turcker is alive and well. Doctors at Chicago say their tests show the transplanted kidney is functioning. lg nvpllced one of Mrs. Tucker's kidneys, destroyed by disease.
