Relatives Find
Oregon Fiance
Of Iranian Girl
FOREST GROVE, Ore, Jan. 10
(JP) -They found ex-GI William
Patrick Cody for the second time
today, and this time his mother
hopes it's going to stick.
And his Iranian fiancee, Soghra
Lavauani, who's been waiting
since December 9 for him to come
and claim her from Ellis Island,
doubtless does, too.
Soghra came to marry him. But
Cody, who was out trying to get
to Iran in the belief she hadnt
come here yet, couldn't be found.
His mother, Mrs. Margaret Cody
of this city, started hunting him.
Yesterday she thought she'd lo
cated him in Compton, Calif. Then
she found she hadn't he'd just
joined the army and gone off to
Fort Ord.
But tonight Cody phoned his
mother, from Fort Ord.
"Cod, I'm glad," he said, when
she told him his sweetheart was
in America. "I'll try to get an
emergency leave right away."
He met and married Soghra
while serving in the army in Iran,
Mrs. Margaret Cody said. But the
army refused to recognize the un
ion. He was shipped back to the
United States, bearing Soghra'a
promise to follow when she could.
Cody was discharged in Novem
ber, 1945, his mother related, and
has been trying to get Miss La
vassani into this country. She ar
rived at Ellis Island last Decem
ber 9. But Cody was not aware
of the arrival. .
Plea Made for
Oil Allocation
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 -()-Mounting

Meanwhile much of the east
coast, particularly New England,
eyed dwindled heating oil reserves
while experiencing below-freezing
temperatures.
The board of managers of the
council of state governments called
on congress, in a resolution adopt
ed here, to take quick action to
assure adequate supplies to short
age areas.

Part of Opera
Singer's Garb
SEATTLE, Jan. 10(JP)-A white
surgical mask and a row of vitamin
bottles were part of Patrice Mun
sel's traveling equipment as she
arrived today for a concert to
night. She was not ill, no, no! But the
girl who won a contract five years

company with her coloratura so
prano voice at 17 was taking pre

I go, she said.
"There was a blizzard in New
York; 75-degree weather in Sac
ramento; damp and coldish in San
Francisco; pouring rain here early
this morning, and 'now bright
sunshine."
The Oregon floods delayed her
and parents. Dr. and Mrs. A. J.
Munsel, 19 hours on the way
north, she said. They only got
"about two hours sleep."

Back in Jail after
Capture by FBI
PORTLAND, Jan. 10 -OP)- The

Fla and San Francisco.
Handron's Portland record
