Kennedy questions ITT taxes at judiciary hearing
At a Judiciary Committee session Senator Kennedy pressed ITT on federal income taxes amid references to negative figures in ITT financials. ITT official Geneen and lawyer Gilbert testified they believed taxes were paid but could not confirm exact amounts, while McGovern argued the SEC report shows no taxes paid and a $400,000 convention contribution deducted as a business expense.

Frozen skin storage aids burn victims at six months
Boston doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital and the Shriners Burns Institute report a long term method to store frozen skin for up to six months. Using a glycerol solution and self sealing packs, thawing must occur in under a minute. Since 1970, frozen skin has matched conventional grafts, cutting hospital stays from about 71 days to roughly half, easing pain and recovery for burn patients.
