Science Attention Focused On Muncie Babe's Life Hinges On Untried Drug Muncie, Ind. Oct. 23—tl'P)— Science focused its attention today on the lifemr-deaUi battle of a still unproven drug against a dis ' ease ravaging the body of a 17-month-old Muncie baby. As doctors, biochemists, drug laboratories and even federal researchers watched for signs of Improvement, tiny Gayle Eleanor Harvey passed Into the «Titl«-»»l stage of tubercular meningitis, heretofore almost universally fatal. Gayle, daughter of a former women’s army corps member ami Sgt. Thomas Harvey, a paratrooper killed in Germany, tossed fit- i fully In her Ball Memorial bos pita) room unaware of the Im-', portanre of her case to human kind. Hope for the infant's survival was pinned on the still fully tin tried drug known as streptomycin. an earth mold product which bas reached only the stage of curative development us had pen! -Ulin two years ago. Whether Gayle Ilves or dies, physicians said, results of using streptomycin In the case will pro vide valuable da'a for future use of the drug. Streptomycin was <leveJo|H-d two years ago liy Selman A. Wakeman, dean of antibiotic research at the r. s. agricultural experiment station at New Brunswick, N J. Gayle lay in a coma as streptompcin wus injected i.-i'o her muscles every three hours. A daily spinal injection of the medicine also was given If resells were negative, the coma would grow more complete until the final hour. The baby was given the drug for the first time last Thursday af'er her physician. Dr Gerald Young, scoureil the nation for a sufficient supply. As she went in | I to the tlijrd. most dangerous stage of the disease, her condition was ' critical. Doctors hoped that the mold derivative would <|estroy tula-rcu |ous bacteria which attacked membranes of the Muncie child's hraln. Last ImcemlM-r. three Philadelphia scientists employed streptomycin successfully in treating typhoid fever. The Mayo Clinic tried it on 34 tuberculosis pa'-I tents, finding if did its best work against the little known forms of, the disease — urinary, skin and miiitarv.
