DETROIT (UPI) - Four
nurses employed by the local
Veterans Administration (VA)
hospital last summer testified
yesterday in Detroit before a
federal grand jury probing a
baffling series of breathing fail-
ures that resulted in 11 patient
deaths.
One of the witnesses, Leonora
Perez, 39, now an empoye of
the Chicago VA hospital, was
named in a copyrighted Ann Ar-
bor news story earlier this week
as a key suspect in the case.
ACCORDING to the News
story, the U. S. Attorney's office
in Detroit is preparing to re-
quest indictments for Perez and'
another VA nurse, Filipina Nar-
ciso, 29, who both worked in the
hospital's Intensive Care Unit
(ICU) last summer where all
the breathing failures and

deaths occurred.
Iowever, officials flatly de-
nied the story, terming it
"purely speculati e" and would
only say that "the investiga-
tion is continuing."
Officials also declined to say
whether they had accumulated
enough evidence in their five
month investigation to prepare
any indictment requests.
BOTH Perez and Narciso ap-
peared before the grand jury in
November but Perez was sub-
poenaed to reappear yesterday,
though officials declined to say
why she was asked to return.
Asked whether she was wor-
ried about the grand jury's in-
vestigation, Perez said, "No,
not really."
Perez spent three and a half
hours in the jury room and then

raced out of the federal build-1
ing with commenting on her
testimony.1
HER ATTORNEY, Thomas
O'Brien, also declined com-;
ment.1
Federal officials used slides
and charts of hospital floors in
an apparent effort to pinpoint
locations of employes when the'
deaths occured.
Officials declined to name
the other three nurses who tes-
tified yesterday or to reveal the
nature of their 30 minute testi-
monies.
FEDERAL sources said sev-
eral more witnesses will ap-
pear, but did not go into de-y
tail.
The grand jurors are probing
more than 50 breathing failures
which occurred over a two
month period, ending August 15
when the FBI entered the case.
Investigators determined that
someone deliberately injected
Pavulon, a powerful neruo-mus-
cular relaxant normally used
during surgery, to the unsus-
pecting patients.
AFTER hearing yesterday's
testimonies, the grand jury ad-I
journed for about two weeks.
Richard Delonis, chief of the'
U. S. Attornev's criminal divi-;
sion in Detroit said yesterday;
the grand jury would meet'
again to continue the investiga-'
tion, but not before Jan. 27.
"Today does not mark the'
end of their consideration of
this case" Delonis said.

Information reaching NATO
diplomats in London suggested
dim prospects of advances. One
informant said it is up to the
Soviet leadership to come up
with proposals that will match
or improve on ideas advanced'
by the U.S. government.
However, the chances of a
successful Kissinger mi *on
were considered good by U.S.
officials, since Kissinger was
invited to Moscow to meet with.
Soviet Communist party leader'
Leonid Brezhnev.
IF THE Russians were Pot
serious about reaching an agree-
ment, one official said, Brezh-
nev would not have asked Kis-
singer to come.
Even under this optimistic
light, it is unlikely that a final
agreement can be reached for'
some time.
Kissinger told his news con-
ference that, "under the best
of circumstances,, it would take
another two or three months"
to work out the detailed pro-
visions of a final accorld.
YESTERDAY Kissinger added
Denmark, Belgium and Spain
to .his 'itinerary.
The State Department said
Kissinger would stop in Copen-
hagen next Tuesday, en route to
Moscow for talks with Prime
Minister Anker Jorgensen and
Foreign Minister K. 3. Ander-
sen.
He will brief the North Atlan-
tic Council in Brussels after his
Moscow talks on Jan. 23 and
then fly to Madrid to meet
Spanish government ufficials
and King Juan Carlos.

Whensomeone drinks too
much and then drives, it's the silence
that kills. Your silence.
It kills your friends, your
relatives, and people you don't even
know. But they're all people you
could save.
If you knew what to say,
maybe you'd be less quiet. Maybe
fewer people would die.
What you should say is, "I'll
drive you home." Or, "Let me call a,
Cab." Or, "Sleep on my couch
tonight."

coffee never made anyone sober.
Maybe it would keep him awake
long enough to have an accident'
But that's about all.
The best way to prevent a
drunk from becoming a dead drunk
is to stop him from driving.
Speak up. Don't let silence be
'the last sound he hears.
