- LETTERS, Page 12Dr. Koop on the Case
-
- Surgeon General C. Everett Koop (PROFILE, April 24) is good
- for the nation's health. Why doesn't he run for President? We
- are a sick country in several ways.

-
- Dr. Koop is doing a fine job. But it chilled my blood to
- learn that he performed exploratory surgery on stray cats when
- he was 15 years old. The fact that his mother helped him do this
- is even more disturbing. He should show remorse instead of
- bragging he "never lost a cat."
