Bulletins stopped by DARRELL GARWOOD WASHINGTON (UPI)—Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhowe’s unflagging will to live has carried him through the greatest crisis of his life, his doctors reported Tuesday. So “favorable” has his recovery been that they discontinued daily bulletins on his condition. Eighteen days after the former President suffered his seventh heart attack, the final bulletin issued from Walter Reed Army Medical Center said: “General Eisenhower had a comfortable night. Progress continues to be favorable. Daily releases will be discontinued unless there is a significant change in his condition.” The team of doctors attending the 77-year-old Eisenhower has refused to speculate on whether he can resume a relatively normal life. Asked that question last week, they said it was too early to tell. Critical Danger The last serious incident of heart irritability— very rapid heart action—occurred last Saturday. The doctors had described the heart flutterings as “a constant and critical danger.” The dramatic turn for the better in the general’s condition occurred on Aug. 26, when the heart irritability was reported to have ceased. At one point in the crisis the general’s condition was so serious that consideration was given to a heart transfer operation. But it was ruled out as too risky in view of Eisenhower’s weakness and his age. Eisenhower had been on the critical list during the lastest stage for nearly three weeks. Reports on his condition were issued at a rate of three or four a day and most of them were extremely gloomy. It was felt that he had no chance of rallying. Arrangements for his funeral were made but not publicly announced. Resume Reading But his remarkable hold on life never ebbed. By last weekend, he was able to sit up in bed, to converse with members of his family, to enjoy music and to resume reading the western novels which had been a source of relaxation for years. Eisenhower's first heart attack occurred 13 years ago, three years into his first term as President. He was stricken in Denver in September, 1955. He recovered well enough to seek and serve a second term in the presidency.

Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF rpHERE’S a sweet young thing on the West Coast who’s a -1- mighty unhappy girl these days. When the doctor she was engaged to called the whole thing off, he not only demanded that she return every present he had given her but he also sent her a bill for 61 visits. * * * Forrest Tucker, making a movie in New York’s lower East Side, sought a sandwich in a small delicatessen. It was supplied rather grudgingly, but the proprietor gruffly refused to furnish any mustard. Tucker went back to the set and recruited two extras who were dressed as cops. They handcuffed Tucker, marched him back to the delicatessen and demanded of the owner, “Is this the man who demanded mustard?" “That’s the guy. Why?” asked the owner nervously. The “cops” explained, ‘‘He just murdered a man up the street who refused him mustard." The proprietor produced a bottle of mustard in three seconds flat—then burst into tears. * • * Bob Considine recalls one erudite fight announcer who grabbed the microphone before one twelve-round bout to identify the veteran challenger as "A man who, like old wine, goes on forever” and then identified the site of the fight as “Pompton. Heights— where Washington once slept. You all know Washington, dontcha? He’s the guy that freed the slaves.” © J9W, by Bennett Cerf. Distributed by King Features Syndicate.
