The public comment time period for the wilderness inventory on BLM land impacted by IPP ends December 18, 1978. So far, according to ELM Kidificld District, Public Information Officer, Terry Tune!!, cnly verbal comments were heard during the public hearings in Delta, Cedar City, CavJcdale and Salt Lake City. The comments with the exception of the Salt Lake meeting, primarily included objections to any wilderness designation. At the Salt Lake meeting, the .

The bird had become so friendly he figured it was ready, willing and anxious to be a "patient" until the pleasantness of spring. "He learned a lot in the first week alone," says Bloom. "He would be waiting patiently for his daily meal, but would jump back if 1 opened my coat." (He was caught by having a tarpaulin thrown oer him).

Epileptics Potential new drugs from researchers across the nation are arriving at the rate of 50 a month at the University of Utah Center for the Early Pharmacological Evaluation of Antiepi-lepti- c Drugs. More than 2,400 compounds have been tested in the three since the center was years established by the National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke. Of all these compounds, 26 have looked sufficiently promising to pass the third level of antiepileptic and toxicological evaluation and are being considered by N1NCDS for further preclinical testing. "In 70 of all epilepsies, the cause in unknown," says Dr. Ewart A. Swinyard, professor emeritus and director of the center in the College of Pharmacy. "Cure or prevention are off in the unknown future. Treating the symptoms that is, controlling seizures with effective drugs-ithe best most epileptics can hope for now." But drugs currently available are effective in only about 50 percent of epileptics. Because of this, the federal NINCDS has set up a support network to try to increase the number of effective antiepilcpsy drugs availabe. "Before the 19th century, epilepsy was considered in the realm of 'witch-crafpossession or affliction by the gods," Dr. Swinyard notes. "It wasn't until 1937 that the first drug was found through a deliberate laboratory search. It took that drug one year to come into clinical use. "From that time until about I960, anticonvulsant drugs were coming on the market at the rate of about one a year. Then the s t, progress halted." Dr. Swinyard continued, "Part of the problem was that it takes tight to 10 years and an investment of $150 million to get a drug from synthesis to market today. An even greater problem was that it was generally and falsely believed in the 1960s that drugs already on the market controlled 75 of all epilepsies." In response to a survey, the Branch of NTNCS's Epilepsy began setting up a support network to encourage development of new drugs. The first step was the development of clinical study centers to improve clinical testing of potential anticonvulsant compounds and compare their effectivemess with that, of drugs, j already on the market. In January 1975, the agency established the center in Utah under the direction of Dr. Swinyard, an internationally knwon figure in epilepsy research for many decades. "This center, currently supported at an annual level of approximately $350,000 illustrates how an academic institution and a- federal agency can work together to solve a health problem," Dr. Swinyard says. "The NINCDS solicits substances from the pharmeceutical industry, academic institutions and research foundations all over the United States and Canada."

"Dr. Shenoy is interested in developing new animal models and tests as researchers learn more aboul the possible biological roots of epilepsy," says Dr. Swinyard. "We don't yet know what biochemical abberations are pre sent in epilepsy," Dr. Swinyard notes. We can cause epilepsylike convulsions in an animal and find compounds that will stop them. But there may be drugs that would control the biological aberrations themselves before they get to the convulsion stage." f 1 tocombination chemotherapy, gether with immunotherapy.

While progress against cancer over the past 25 years has been steady rather than spectacular, many real and very significant advances have been made, Dr. R. Wayne Rundles, President of the American Cancer Society, told some 60 newspaper, magazine, and broadcasting journalists who gathered to hear nearly 50 of the country's leading cancer scientists report on their latest research findings at the 20th ACS Science Writers' Seminar in Houston, Texas, this past spring. "All tixi frequently in the past," Dr. Rundles, Head of Duke University's Hematology and Chemotherapy Service, said in his opening address, "medical oncologists tended to see patients on a last rites basis." This has changed dramatically, he said, adding that "it has been increasingly possible. ..to have patients treated in their home communities because of improved communications, and cooperation that has developed between large referral institutions and the practitioner." A quantum increase in cancer specialists has been stimulated by professional education supported by the National Cancer Act. Key areas of progress: ff.

Flu vaccine is also recommended for the elderly. Influenza vaccine for use in the 1978-7season will contain antigens against three flu viruses anticipated to be prevalent: AUSSR; ATexas, and BHong Kong. The vaccine is expected to be effective and has been associated with fewer side effects than previous influenza vaccines. There will be two vaccine formulations. For persons 26 years of age and older, the vaccine will contain an equal amount of all three virus antigens and only one dose will be required. Two shots about one month apart are necessary to achieve the same level of antiin 6 months bodies people 25 years old. Most through persons in this group lack experience with AUSSR strains.
