D., Feb. 17.—Near- ly 1,600 examinations were perform- ed by the state public health labor- atory during January, rding to Dean H. E. French, of the State Uni-| versity School of Medicine and the main laboratory of the state public health service. In December 1441 ex- aminations were performed.

In addition to the examinations just spoken of the main laboratory und the branches prepare and send out outfits, containers, etc. includ- ing media for diphtheria Every doctor in the state has oppor- tunity to be in contact with the la- boratories and may be supplied with tubes of media and with outfits for sputum, and for blood for the Widal and Wasserman tests. Further, Dean French says, while the reports of the laboratory are or- dinarily sent to health officers and physicians, it welcomes inquiry re- garding water and water supplies, and regarding the hygienic produc- ton of milk, from any citizen of the state. It will make the necessary ex- aminations for any person in the state, send him literature, and dis- cuss his problem with him. Another kind of service which the laboratory would like to extend is a regular examination of the water and milk supplies of neighboring cities. It would be glad to confer with city health officers or city councils and to undertake a service of this kind, Dean French states, TO AMPUTATE FEET HELD IN CAVE IS PLAN (Continued from page one) that an autopsy be held on the body by three physicians to “determine the cai f death, to locate any pos- sible injuries and ti find if there was any trace of poison.” Dr. Hazlett, Dr. W. E. MeWilliams of Broadhead, Kentucky, and Dr. W C. Simmons of Vine Grove, were se- lected for this purpose. Lie In State Meantime tentative arrangements fo: the body to lay in state in the Cave City High School for two days were announced by T. J. Gorby, a friend of the family. Four ministers, pastors of churches in this region, will conduct the fun- eral services and the body taken to Mammoth Cave burial grounds and laid to rest beside those of his moth- er and sister. It was announced late last night that Lee Collins, father of the vic- tim, was considering having the fun- eral services in Crystal Cave, which Floyd discovered, and interment at the cave where Collins died. Johnny Gerald one of the outstand- ing figures in the carly rescue ef- forts, will be the first to go through the victim's clothing. In doing so Gerald will abide by the wish of Lee Collins. “Floyd had a habit of carrying everything he had with him” Mr. Collins told Gerald. “He carried his money, his, beads and any other val- uables he owned. I want you to go through his clothing for me first.” It had been intimated that Floyd and Gerald had not been good friends and by others that Gerald had, hindered, rather than helped, in the rescue work, * Now, with Floyd dead, Mr. Collins took this means of expressing his faith in Gerald by asking that he} represent the family. Not Sure Of Time How long Collins has been dead may never be determined exactly, ac- cording to Dr. Hazlett. “It is .impossible to determine from’ an examination of the head alone how long Collins has been dead and even when his body is brought to the surface and examined our calculations may be two or three days off,” he said when he emerged from the shaft this morning. “The temperature in the cavern is ideal to preserve a corps.

Governor W. J. Fields sent personal a little handful of men at first, and then General Denhardt, commander of the 75th Infantry Brigade, was or- dered to take supreme command of the situation. The rescources of the state were thrown behind the rescue efforts. Dr. W. D. Funkhouser, of the Uni- versity of Kentucky, came in as the state’s geologist, and Mr. Carmichael, general superintendent of the plant at Kyrock, who had come here as an individual, joined forces with the ate and Wag put in charge of the rescue operations. 3 Rescue Work Organized Meantime the unorganized efforts of individuals to drag Collins out through the natural tunnel had been replaced by an organized force. But this force was unequal to the task of overcoming one obstacle after another that was placed in the way of those who tried to save the trap- ped explorer. Nature had laid its trap in the first place so that no one could get to it. Collins was: in the narrow passage between the rescuers and the rock that held him down. When hepes were high that they soon could get to the boulder, a cave-in closed the passageway. This was cleared away only to have an impenetrable one dumped into the crevice, completely cutting off the prisoner from the outside A shaft was started a few feet from the mouth of the cave and for some 10 days workers slowly dug their way toward the cave. Time after time, just when the workers be- lieved the end of their long fight was at hand, nature played another trump and delayed the day when Col- lins was to be found. <j Today, however, while the miners kept digging away, the break came. Under the weight of the miners the limestone roof of Sand “hole” as the workers, called it, gave way, and at last revealed the victim, May Have Jury Probe Preliminary plans to hold’ an in- quest at the mouth of the cave were made this evening. It probably will he six hours, however, before the passageway to Collins can be enlarg- ed sufficiently to permit a first hand medical examination. Physicians then will crawl to Collins and de- termine if possible when he died. As soon as the body can be brought to the shaft, T. C. Turner, magistrate for District Number 6, will assume charge of it. The body will be brought to the surface and another medical examination will be held for record purposes. Turner said a jury might be im- panelled at the cave, and the inquest completed on the scene of the fata- lity. If it becomes advisable to make a medical examination at Sand Cave, the inquest will adjourn probably to Cave City, where witnesses will be heard to complete all eviderice relat: ing to the case. A local committee will take charge of the body after the inquest and it will lie in state in the gymnasium of the Cave City high school for one day. General Denhardt, Carmichael, Dr. Funkhouser and Captain Alex M. Chaney, and J. C. Polin were group- ed around the top of the shaft when the word came up that Collins had been found. Announce Discovery Carmichael, Dr. Funkhouser and General Denhardt walked down the. track about 35 feet and Dr. Funk- thouser, who had a paper pad and pencil in his hand, scribbled down a few notes. About two minutes were consumed before Dr. Funkhouser walked over a pile of earth, raised his hands and made the announcement to the news- ermen. At 8 o'clock Captain C. E, Francis of Bowling Green, medical officer of the 149th Infantry, Kentucky Na- tional guard, volunteered to go into the shaft and was given permission by General Denhardt. Major M. M. Noss, also of Bowl- ing Green and a medical officer of the same regiment and Dr. C, C. Howard, Glasgow, representing | the Collins family, and Dr. W. H. Haz- lett, Chicago, stood at the mouth of the shaft while Dr. Francis was mak- ing the examination. At 3:35 p, m. Captain Francis came to the surface and reported that when he arrived at the heading he found it was impossible for anyone but a small man to reach Collins.
