This statement was made by Dr. John E. Meihaus, cardiologist at St. Vincents Hospital in Los Angeles and instructor of medicine at UCLA, in an appearance here this week before the Kings County Society. His subject was the heart-lung machine, a device used to bypass the heart in heart surgery, oxygenating the blood and keeping the patient alive while surgeons per-form their task.

Twenty years ago heart surgery was unheard of, but in the last four or five years particularly many advances have been made, including the heart-lung machine, he pointed out- At a specific point in the operation the machine can take over the job of vital organs. Medics have been able to operate on the heart foe long as l'i hours without the patients heart beating at all, through use of the device. As a result of these many axivanc is, blue babies now are enabled to live out normal existences where otherwise they would have been cardiac cripples, Meihaus noted.

Formal charges were not placed against Ernst because the coroner has to determine whether stabbing or heart failure caused the victims death.

Ernst told police he had been drinking during the evening for his blues But investigation revealed he had become angered at a downtown restaurant where he once employed, and stole a knife from the kitchen. At a Market St. bar, he was refused a drink and threatened the bartender and customers with the knife. They took it away and threw him out. He went back to the steak house and stole another knife, then went otitside and slashed the tires on six parked cars.

Police said Ernst told them he became frightened of arrest while in the mras room and a maai about 45 years old attacked him. Ernst told police he threw the knife over his shoulder. Police said the victim was wounded under the right shoulder in the back. The wound did not penetrate the rib cage and was not considered too; serious a stabbing. The victim, however, staggered outside the bowling alley and collapsed.

He died early today at San Francisco Hospital where officials said he may have died from a heart attack due to shock from the stabbing.
