...fetuses, Dr. Elijah Joseph Gordon, slight, swarthy, witty Professor of Medicine at Ohio State University, admitted last week, handicapped him in effecting the experimental cure of two anemia cases this year.** Ordinary liver has become remedy of choice for the anemias (TIME, Oct. 21). Hog stomachs are being tested. Neither of these affected Professor Gordon's cases. An ingenious ratiocinator, he figured that the younger liver was, the greater might be its power of stimulating blood formation.
