Army Deserter
Gives Himself Up
After 41 Years
FORT LEWIS, Wash., O c t. 22
.P Forty-one years of hiding
from Uncle Sam's military po
lice has ended here lor 65-year
old Ray H. Wheaton.
Wheaton turned himself In to
the duty officer at this Army post
with the explanation "I've been
a deserter since 1908 and I can't
stand it anymore."
He told Maj. F. D. Lowe, post
adjutant general, that he desert
ed at Newport News, Va., in Oct
ober, 1908, to avoid transfer to
Cuba with his Signal corps com
pany.
He had been recovering from
tropical fever contacted during
previous Cuban service and did
n't want to g6 back "so I took
the only way out."
"I wrapped my uniform around
a rock, dropped it in a canal
and started walking. I haven't
stopped since. Luckily I didn't
have a family to disgrace when
I deserted, anyway."
Now whitehaired and showing
hrs years, Wheaton said he en
listed at Sioux City. Iowa, in 1906.
"The time I should have turned
myself in was during the first
world war," he told Maj. Lowe.
"I kept moving too fast1o get
drafted and then I got afraid."
Majo Lowe said if Wheaton's
records check with his story he
will be granted an administat
ive discharge. The statute of lim
itations has expired, he said, and
the onlv official action is to give
him a dishonorable discharge and
get him off the roles as a desert
er. This probably will be com
pleted at Fort Lewis.

Elderly Sisters Found
Slain With Brother
BERKELEY. Calif., Oct. 24.
(."Pi Two elderly sisters and
their brother were found slain
Satuday in the modest home in
which they had lived together
for more than 20 years.
The skulls of the women had
been split by blows from a heavy
hammer.
The man died with a revolver
bullet through his brain.
They were Mrs. Mamie Mc
Kenzie, 73, Miss Irene O'Neil, 65,
and Eugene J. O'Neil, 62.
All had been dead several
days.
Police Inspector E. F. Parker
said a preliminary investigation
indicated O'Neil heat his sistes
to death, then took his own life.
But he said the possibility of a
triple murder had not been ruled
out entirely.

(-P) November 4 has been tenta
tively set as date for William
Henry Nagel to surrender him
self in circuit court here to start

resented Nagel in the trial and

Anything can and does happen on KRNR's new "Linger Awhile"
program (1:30-2:00 p. m. MW-F). Last Friday's session is a fair
example, as its "co-stars" Carol and Lyle will testify. Following
a most interesting and amusing Interview with KRNR's newest
announcer, Ray MacPherson, the show proceeded with its soap opera
feature, entitled "The Road of Life Is Rough and Rocky," Vol. I,
Chapter III. As a result of a few technical difficulties during the
heavy dramatization, the show, ended in hysterical but embarrassed
laughter. If you take a morbid delight in hearing radio fluffs then
"Linger Awhile" is your show. .
Tbe whimsical "Bob Poole" has replaced the Mutual-Don
Lee favorite, "Against tbe Storm." (2:00-2:30 Mon. thru
Fri.) Unforunately, "Storm" fans have concluded that tbe
program's discontinuation was a local coneellatlon rather
than a network move. We'll pass the buck this time and say
"They Did It!"
"The Rose Petal Staircase," which represents dreams of love and
marriage to two spinsters, background the "Let George Do It"
dramatization tonight at eight. "I Love a Mystery" absorbs a full
half-hour's air-time tonight from 10:30 to 11 one time only due to
last Friday night's football game airing. At 11 tonight, "What Kind
of a Democrat Am I?" titles the subject under discussion on a
special New York Herald Tribune Forum. (11:00 11:30 p. m.)
Today is the birthday of the United Nations. On this day
In 194S all the required ratifications of the Charter had
been deposited. The United Nations came Into being and the
Charter took effect as world law. As Secretary-General
Trygve Lie put it: "The United Nations is the chief force
that holds the world together against all the .inflicting -strains
and stresses that are pulling it apart."

Betty Davis' Divorce
Action Stirs Hollywood
HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 24.-t.B
The film capital was surprised
today over Actress Bette Davis'
sudden divorce action against her
third husband, Artist William
Giant Sherry.
Charging cruelty, the 41-year-old
Academy award winner filci
her suit late Friday at nearby
Santa Ana, Calif. Superior Judge
Robert Gardner granted her re
quest for an order restaining
Sherry from molesting her until
the suit is settled.
Miss Davis evidently kept her
plans secret until the last mo
ment. Her mother, Mrs. Ruth
Favour Davis, said she heard of,
the divorce suit on a radio
broadcast. Friends of the couple
expressed complete surprise.
Miss Davis accused Sherry of
threatening her with bodily
harm, adding she was fearful of
injury unless he is restrained.
She asked for all comrnunlty pro
perty and custody of two-year-old
Barbara Davis Sherry, her
only child.
Sherry, onetime prize fighter,
is six years younger than Miss
Davis. Thev married Nov. .SO,
1915. in Riverside, Calif. Her
