Every gardener knows that "wounded" plants heal themselves with mysterious juices. Last summer, Chemist James English Jr. and James Frederick Bonner, working at the California Institute of Technology with famed Dutch Plantman Aire Jan Haagen-Smit, announced that they had solved the mystery of that healing juice.

Clara's distant cousin, John Melvin Bonner, 16, offered to risk his skin. Dr. Moran slit a strip of skin 16 inches long, half-inch wide, from John's armpit to his hip.
