Some take dim view of frozen people idea By GEORGE W. CORNELL AP Religion Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Tt* idea of putting dying persons in \cold storage\ until medical science finds ways In the distant future to restore their health leaves some theologians with reservations. They differ on the religious connotations. But even if it should become technically feasi- ble, they question its compati- bility with human nature. To reanimate \frozen people\ years after their refrigeration would put them out of joint with their time, says Dr. George M. SehMff- ; head of the philosophy and theology department at Park College, Parkville, Mo. Unlike a newborn child, he ological view. Some have de- fended it as ethically sound, al- though others assail it, assert- ing '\the impossibility of freez- ing a soul.\ Writing earlier in The Chris- tian Century, he describes the project this way: \... if a body is frozen immediately after 'clinical death'. . . and stored at liquid nitrogen temperature (-J20 degrees F.) there win be virtually no further deteriora- tion for an essentially indefinite period. \We can then expect or at least hope that sooner or later ways will be found to thaw the *?$LJ^?^^-- famagt* arvi in repair any Treezing damage and to cure the cause of death even when this was. . . old age. -AA *w i, tJ w x . i '\^n *e frozen cadaver-pa- adds, they 'would be starting; tjente will be rveived and reju- from a total life orientation j venated; everyone will enjoy amptetdy out of step with the, (or w!ht9 „ ^ MA) £jj m sodo-histoncal context\ in I ___ which they were revived. \Men have been driven mad by cultural shocks much less severe than this,\ he writes in The Christian Century. The movement for \deep freezing\ has been sparked by Robert a W. Ettingen A physics teacher at Highland Park, (Mich.) college, Ettinger details his thesis in a book, 'The Prospects of Immortali- ty. \ He urges development of facilities for \cryogenic inter- ment\ in \time capsules\ in- stead of burial or cremation. An organization called the Life Extension Society has been set up, with headquarters in Washington and chapters in sev- eral titieC including New York and Hollywood. It issues a news letter called •Trme-Watt-ReantaateT' Says Serf Kent, the society's assist- ant New York coordinator: '•Relative immortality is a sci- entific inevitability.\ Etttager says many clergy- men agree the plan is unobjec- tionable irom a strictly the- initeiy extended life.\ It would be another develop- ment \in the great historical j j^\^ process through which man will j she explained how muc* larg New Methodist hymnal introduced By ETHEL CHAMPAGNE Tteenderegn Bureau TICONDEROGA - An intro- duction to the new Methodist Hymnal, with emphasis on changes and additions, was pre- sented by Mrs. Willis TrombJey, choir director of the First Meth- odist Church in Ticonderoga, at the Adult Fellowship meeting at \ the church, \You will note how much easier the printing is to read,\ said Mrs. TromWey, in com- menting on the format of the develop into superman. . . a few clergymen may be afraid of superman.

Psychologically, a person recognizes himself er the Mack notes are in com- parison with the old hymnal, the numbers being on the outside of the pages, and the first line of the hymn being used as the title at the top of the page, making hymns easier to find.
