Broken Leg Lucky
For Girl; Defect
In Knee Remedied
ALBANY. Calif.. Jan. 13 P
When six-yeir-nld Mary Ann
McMahon fell off her tricvcle and
broke her leg, she didn't know
what a lucky break that was.
In setting the leg, a surgeon
also straightened out a knee de
fect the child had since birth.
Now her father, Dr. Robert T.
McMahon, city health officer, Is
considering having Mary Ann's
other leg broken surgically to
straighten that knee.
Mary Ann was born with no fib
ulas in her legs. A fibula is the
second and smaller of the two
long bones of the lower leg. She
had to wear cumberson casts year
after year; doctors had felt she
could never walk without them.
But then came the accident.
A San Francisco surgeon, set
ting the leg, saw that If he twisted
it slightly the single bone might
better bear the child's weight. It
worked. Mary Ann walks much
better, and a similar operation
may be performed on the other
knee.

Mails Held Because New
Postage Rates Ignored
Many people appear to have
missed the publicity on new post
age rates and their mail is be
ing delayed because of under
payment of postage, according to
Postmaster L. L. Wimberly.
With the exception of first
class mails and second clasj
newspapers, all domestic rates
have increased. Mall most fre
quently found short of proper
postage are airmail letters, which
now require six cents per ounce,
and third class advertising and
greeting cards, which now re
quire two cents for a minimum
instead of li cents.
There is a common error all
the time In the mailing of birth
notices, which are first class and
require three cents each, whether
sealed or not.
Club's Barrier to GIs
In Germany Abolished
BERLIN, Jan. 13-(P) The ex
clusive officers' and1 civilians'
Harnack House said today it was
okay for GI Joes to come again.
The U. S. Army waved a big
financial stick at the members'
December ruling which barred
ordinary soldiers from entering
the club.
The ruling caused quite a hub
bub. MaJ. Gen. George Hays,
deputy theater commander, called
the board on the carpet. He point
ed out the Army subsidizes the
club and said there could be no
discrimination where U. S. gov
ernment funds were concerned
or else.
Five hundred members met this
week and were told they would
either have to put up an addi
tional $175,000 of their own
money in the next year or pull
down the "restricted clientele"
sign. They decided to pull down
the restriction.

To Lure Young From Bars
NEW YORK, Jan. 13 The
New York First Presbyterian
Church yesterday came up with
this answer to the problem of
keeping young people out of
neiRhborhood bars: A "television
center."
A spokesman for' the Church
said It had bought a television re
ceiver and set aside a room for a
weekday schedule of video shows
for younger groups.
Mrs. Kenneth Chamberlain, In
charge of the project, said that
television sets In surrounding bars
seemed a 3trong attraction to the
younger generation. She added.
"Instead of youngsters going to
a bar to see a picture, we thought
it was something that the church
could do."
