King pal raises fund for Ray Liver transplant would mean borrowed time for trial PITTSBURGH (AP) A friend of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. is leading a fund-raising drive for a liver transplant that may save the life of King's confessed killer.

Hepatitis is killing James Earl Ray, and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center has declared him eligible for a transplant. But Ray has no money to pay for it, and Tennessee prison officials have not approved a furlough so that he may travel to Pittsburgh for the procedure. "We are under enormous time pressure," Ray's attorney, William Pepper, said at a news conference yesterday. UPMC transplant chief Dr. John Fung said in a letter Aug.

SMITH BROTHERS FUNERAL DIRECTORS. 706 Monroe 726-1476, Henry L. and Melvin Smith, Directors Tobacco's other uses keep res researchers busy By LESLIE LLOYD Associated Press JOHNSON CITY When Bob Acuff was a child playing in his grandfather's tobacco barns, he sometimes got stung by wasps.

His grandfather rubbed the tobacco leaves on the sting. "That was one of the first things you did," says Dr. Acuff, now a researcher at the Quillen College of Medicine at East Tennessee State University. He is trying to find out what is in tobacco leaves that works as an anti-inflammatory. Acuff is finding that the leaf used in cigarettes also has vitamins A and beta carotene, proteins and amino acids.

He is studying what is there and how it can be extracted and used so that the leaf is good for more than just cigarettes. And Acuff is not alone. Researchers around the country are looking at cancer -fighting compounds in tobacco along with possible vaccines and other substances that can be used in food and drugs. Scientists already know a great deal about tobacco and how to prevent plant diseases and increase growth, according to Acuff. The plant also is easy to manipulate genetically.

That means it can be used to produce enzymes and antibodies not already in the plant, according to Dr. Maelor Davies, director of the Tobacco and Health DEATHS Frankie Dale Browner, 41, 164 Haysville Circle, Lafayette, a truck driver for Transportation in Westmoreland, died Tuesday, University Medical Center, Lebanon, of cancer.

"The tobacco plant could be used as a production vehicle," Davies says. The research comes at a time when tobacco is increasingly under attack for causing cancer and illnesses. The federal government is pushing for tighter regulations and an agreement between cigarette companies and states to pay for costs of treating smoking related illnesses. Farmers worry they are being left out of the negotiations. Sue Russell, a spokeswoman for the Washington-based Tobacco Institute, says the industry group has not addressed research into alternative uses of tobacco plants.

"There is no industry position per se," she said. Dr. Lou Tornatzky, director of the Southern Technology Council in Raleigh, N.C., says far more money is needed for research before tobacco will be grown widely for something other than for cigarettes. He said that if more research is funded, growing tobacco for something other than cigarettes could possibly happen in 10 years. But he's not optimistic.

"I don't think it's going to happen in tobacco-growing regions," he said. "It's going to happen elsewhere." SCIENCE Ragland, Midwest City, sisters, Iva Lynn, Dover, and Brown, Muncie, Ind. ville. Cause not disclosed. Services 1 p.m.

Survivors: brothers, Murphy, Morrison, and Cecil He said farmers in California or Hawaii or Canada, for example, might grow it for other uses. For research purposes, the quality of the tobacco is not as important as it is for cigarette tobacco, Tornatzky says.

Cigarette companies like the tobacco dried for market. And farmers in Southeastern states are used to growing tobacco and preparing it for market. Acuff says the price farmers could get for tobacco for medicinal uses might be about half of the price for cigarette tobacco. But he says they could grow a couple of crops annually instead of one. "We are looking now at the younger and adolescent plants," Acuff says.

The plants are harvested earlier, allowing the farmer to grow two crops. Tobacco does not begin to produce nicotine until it matures, and the tobacco for research is harvested before then. He says tobacco for other uses could be viable because harvesting earlier cuts down on labor costs for producing tobacco. After harvesting, tobacco for cigarettes must be hung to dry and sometimes farmers separate it into grades, based on quality, for market. Also, economic viability would be helped if processing plants to extract the beneficial compounds were located near the tobacco fields, Acuff said.
