Brownsof | Newark, N. J,, under local anesthesia | only, discussed his feeling with doc- tors and nurses—was described by the staff of Beth Israel Hospital yester- day. Completely Recovered The operation was performed on Feb, 27, The patient recovered so except for the fact that his wife is herself in a hospital with a broken leg, he now would be at home under her care, More than a year ago Brown was forced to leave his furniture shop when his right side became paralyzed. He complained of terrible headaches land sometimes was seized with epi- leptic fits. Then his memory failed him and he fell into a semi-stupor. Finally*he was taken to Beth Israel Hospital for an operation. Because of his weakened condition, it was decjd- ed that he could not stand a general anesthetic. During a period of lucidity, Brown was informed that if he wished to live he must submit, under,local anesthe- sia, to a two-hour operation, Brown, who is 49, sald he had become re- | coneiled to the idea of death and that he would play his one chance. He promised to co-operate with the surgeons., He was told to tell them whenever he felt the anesthesia wear- ing off and warned that an unexpect- ed movement on his part would mean his end. Relaxing as directed, he was placed on the operating table, the skull trephined and the ébrain covering re- | moved until the tumor was revealed. Dr. Emil Altman, hospital neurologist, who has diagnosed the case as one of a large tumor, saw revealed a tumor two inches by four, and three quarters of an inch thick. Dr. K. Winfield May, the operating surgeon, continued steadily at his work, pausing only when the patient asked for more anesthetic. Finally the tumor was removed and bandages wrapped tight. Brown safd the first result he no. Then he regained his memory grad- ually. First came to him the name of his eldest child—then those of all his family. Eventually his whole past was again restored to him. Then his paralysis disappeared and now he can move about freely. He is cOnvalescing at a home in White Plains, waiting for his wife to return from the hospital. $300,000 FOR NORMAL SCHOOL Two Wings of Dormitory May Be Eliminated If Decision of Commit- tee On Education is Adopted.
