Three days later she "received a diagnosis of chicken pox for all three children and mumps in one as well. the blood samples were actually from a sheep, a turkey and a pig". Metcalf told the staff at the clinic that she (Metcalf) had stomach problems, she was diagnosed "as aluminum poisoning of the stomach and gall bladder. She was advised to throw away all her aluminum kitchen utensils and come back for further treatment". Metcalf purchased a Drown
Therapeutic Instrument for $ 588 so she could treat her family at home, Chatfield instructed her how to set the dials to cure the children.

who had kept their blood sample on a blotting paper and insert that into the machine, the "blood sample supposedly remained in some kind of continuous communication with the rest of the patient's blood, where he might be, and thus reflected any current illness" Or for a monthly fee of $ 35 the blood sample would be inserted into the machine on a specified day, then dials would be set to the healing rate and for an hour it would communicate with the patient's blood anywhere in the world. Drown claimed she could take photos of diseased organs using "radio-vision". At the 1966 trial, medical experts examined these photos, one calling it "completely unintelligible".

which found no cancer in the patient who later died, during a biopsy it was shown that the patient had malignant cancer. Later in the trial, professor of radiology at UCLA School of
Medicine, Dr. Moses Greenfield, disassembled a device in open court and explained all it "consisted of was a length of wire linking together two pieces of dissimilar metal ... the function performed by the patient was to complete the otherwise broken circuit ... a small electric current flowed between the two metals .... operating like a simple flashlight". The dials on the machine were found to connected together so it made no difference where the dials were set.
1542:"Ruth Drown claimed she could diagnose and treat disease with her patent devices, Drown Radio Therapy and Drown Radio Vision Instruments (also known as 'Homo-Vibra Ray Instruments). These devices were similar to those of Abrams. They tuned in to the 'vibrations' of the body, and could locate and could locate and identify not only disease, but gauge blood pressure, examine urine and sample the temperature of the patient. When her devices and technique were put to independent test, however, she failed spectacularly. She was unable to diagnose any illnesses accurately from provided blood samples of patients."
1246:"squeak" while turning the dials, then it meant that the "dial settings were beginning to approach the vibration rate of the part or organ of the body that she was supposedly testing". Drowns would then take out glass vials holding a chemical and insert unopened into the well of the desk and continue adjusting the dials. When she determined that she had matched the numbers to the vibrations of the patient she would read off the dial numbers to her assistant who would consult the "rate book" which would give the "normal" vibration rate which was then "fed back into the body to restore health".

Drown was investigated by the California State Bureau of Food and Drug Inspection and charged with grand theft in 1963. Investigators claim her radiotherapy used worthless electrical devices to treat non-existent ailments. Drown died before the case came to trial.

Lunness and the chiropractors were charged with one count of grand theft and two counts of attempted grand theft. Margaretha Bice, Myrna Ayres and Opal Gamst were charged with two counts of attempted grand theft. In

Another machine dubbed by the police "the Tunnel of Love" had patients lie down on a slab and inserted into a hollow coil, Drown said that this would "straighten up people who walked lopsided".

At the clinic some patients sat on a table putting their feet on footpads made of German silver. The console had a "stick pad" and a quantity of dials which Drown adjusted after placing an electrode on the body of the patient, usually the stomach. When Drown's finger on the pad began to "stick" or

During the 1966 trial, many of Drown's patients testified, one man was told to reduce the intake of insulin for his son who was diabetic. An epileptic man was told to stop taking his medication prescribed by his doctor. A chiropractor who using one of the Drown machines brought a man for testing

The clinic at the time of their arrest had treated over 35,000 people and sold the machines to practitioners around the country. "The devices allegedly could diagnose and cure nearly every known affliction from jealousy to cancer, plus a few ailments which medical science had yet to discover".

In 1951, Drown was tried on federal charges "of introducing a misbranded device into interstate commerce". An expert witness, Dr. Elmer Belt called the device "perfectly useless ... I couldn't even use it to amuse the children". Drown was fined $ 1,000 and stopped shipping her devices out of
