WENDELL COREY FAN
Teen-Ager Says Girls Today
Go for Rugged, Homely Men
By VIRGINIA MacPHERSON
Hollywood, Dec. 3 W-R) Shirley Haskin, blue-eyed, blond, and
vice president of a Wendell Corey fan club, said today the girls
the knows are getting tired of handsome movie heroes.
It't the homely actors that keep 'em i wake nights. Gents who
look like they might even sock a dame if they felt like it.
' ' Men that are men!" breathed
Shirley reverently. "Strong men.
Virile men. Men like Wendell,
natch."
Shirley is 18 and starry-eyed
about the love-making possibil
ities of Corey. So, she said, are
all the other 'teen-agers in her
set. And they don't think Pro
ducer Hal Wallis is making the
most of his talents.
Sitz of Harney
Heads Sheriffs
Eldon Sitz, sheriff of Harney
county, will head the Oregon
State Sheriffs association during
the coming year, being elected
president during the closing of
the convention Friday afternoon.
Sheriff Denver Young, Mar
lon county, was named vice-president;
Sheriff R. L. Gillmouthe,
Hood River, secretary-treasurer,
and members of the executive
committee are Terry Schrunk,
Multnomah, Jack Franey, Kla
math, and Lloyd Lewis, Jose
phine.
The convention went on rec
ord as favoring legislation which
would place blame on delinquent
adults as a step toward curbing
juvenile delinquency and also
showed opposition to Oregon
chest funds being turned over to
the Oregon Prison association.
The latter is an organization of
the state government, the sher
iffs contend and should be sup
ported by the state.
The convention created a fact
finding committee to ascertain
data on sheriffs' budgets, arrests
and services to in particular
furnish a breakdown of costs so
the public may be advised. On
this committee are Sheriffs Wil
liams Jones, Yamhill; Allen E.
Birch, Tillamook, and Denver
Young, Marion.
A feature of the closing day
of the convention was a talk by
James T. Brand, justice of the
supreme court, who reviewed
his experiences as a judge on the
allied war crime tribunal in Ger
many and also discussed various
phases of the proper handling of
evidence in court and courtroom
demeanor of officers called on
to testify.
A banquet for sheriffs and
members of their families held
at American Legion hall closed
the two day session.
Whooping Cough
Yields to New Drug
Chicago, Dec. 3 VP) Whoop
ing cough is another in a grow
ing list of diseases that has
yielded to aureomycin, two
Minneapolis doctors reported to
day. Aureomycin Is a golden-color-ad
antibiotic drug that checks a
variety of Infectious diseases
which are immune to penicillin
and streptomycin,
Drs. Wesley W. Spink and El
lard M. Yow of the University
of Minnesota medical school
said the effectiveness of aureo
mycin against whooping cough
was Indicated in recent experi
mental and clinical studies.
However, the antibiotic has
not shown promise against
chicken pox and mumps, they
added.
They said aureomycin has
been effective against numerous
bacterial infections and those of
rickettsial and virus origin.
Heavy Equipment
Pittsburgh VP Little Gil May
er, goaltendcr for the Pittsburgh
team of the American Hockey
league has a natural weight of
128 pounds. However, when he
dons all his equipment for a
game he tips the scales at 166.
The 38 pounds of steel, wood,
leather and wool costs $300 and
requires 30 minutes for dressing
and removal.
"He looks like the type who'd
order his woman around," she
sighed. "That's what we girls
want. Not these hand-kissing
pretty boys. Personally, Tyrone
Power leaves me cold."
But so far, she said, Holly
wood's left Corey standing a-
round with egg on his face while
the other boys make with the
love stuff.
"He has one good sexy scene
with Barbara Stanwyck in Thel
ma Jordan'," Shirley said, "and
he's simply terrific. We girls got
so excited we wrote Mr. Wallis
a letter and told him to give us
more of that."
Mr. Wallis said he would. It's
girls like Shirley who keep the
Dox-ottice cash registers tink
nng Ana he is the last man too
ignore a customer's demands.
Corey will pitch all kinds of
torrid woo in "The Furies." he
promised. Shirley said he's bet
ter. Or Mr. Wallis will be heir
ing from "Her Girls" again.
"I sit through all of Wendell's
pictures over and over and ov
er, she said dreamily, "so do
the other girls. We can't get en-
ougn of mm."
Shirley just graduated from
high school and she said she
spends most of her time think
ing about becoming an actress
and gazing at Corev's nlcturni
The boys in Shirley's crowd
are getting pretty fed up with
hearing how wonderful this
Corey guy is. But Shirley said
she doesn't care They're all too
immature anyhow.
Wendell's the kind of man
we girls want to marrv." sin-
sighed. "The older type. We
want to be dominated."

'Super Bomb' Is Old Stuff
At Least Theoretically
By JOSEPH L. MYLER
(Untied Press Still Correspondent)
Washington, Dec. 2 u.R The "super bomb" which keeps explod
ing into headlines from time to time is old stuff on paper.
As a Dhvsicist here said today;
"Ever since man found out he could make a bomb by splitting
the nuclei of atoms, he has been fooling around with the idea of
making one by combining atom-
ic nuclei."
Sen. Edwin
Colo., created
Johnson, D.,
sensation by
telling a television audience last
month that progress is being
made toward production of an
A-bomb 1,000 times more pow
erful than the first ones made.
Johnson is a member of the
congressional atomic energy
committee, which regularly gets
official fill-ins on bombs devel
opment progress. But he said he
was talking only on the basis of
what he had read in the newspapers.
As a matter of fact, the "super
bomb" has been viewed as a the
oretical possibility much in
the same sense that rockets to
Mars are a theoretical possibil
ity ever since science discov
ered that the tremendous forces
locked in atomic nuclei could be
turned loose.
Recently there had been indi
cations that the A-bomb people
believe a super bomb is inevit
able if man really wants to
blow himself up.
Hiroshima proved that atom-
splitting, or nuclear fission, is
one way of unlocking some of
the vast stores of violence in the
heart of matter.
When an atom of a heavy me
tal like uranium or Plutonium is
split, the fragments don't quite
add up to the original weight.
One-tenth of one per cent of the
original mass has been trans
formed into energy.
This is a small amount of mass
but it makes a whale of a lot of
energy.
Tex is a small, evergreen bush
and blooms with beautiful cream
white and rose tinted flowers.
Women's Secrets
Revealed for 'Bribe'
Tacoma, Wash., Dec. 3 u.fi A
man who DriDes women into
telling him their most intimate
secrets by promising to give
them free undergarments was
sought by the Better Business
bureau today.
The man has telephoned doz
ens of local women and told them
he was a doctor helping Dr. A.
C. Kinsey write a sequel to his
best-selling book on "Sexual
Behavior in the Human Male.
Officials said he querries the
women regarding their sex lives
as part of a "survey" to gather
information for the second book
regarding the behavair of the
female sex.
The women won't tell us what
questions he asks," said Walter
West, head of the Better Business
bureau, "but some women say
he even 'out-Kinseys Kinsey,'.
In most cases, West said, the
man promises to send the wo
men free unmentionables for
their cooperation in giving him
information.
West said that most women
who complain to his office are
indignant about not receiving
the underwear, rather than over
the intimate questions the man
asked them.
Bataan March Survivor Gets
Cheated of Chance to Aid Vets
Albuoueraue. N. M.. Dec. 3 u.R) A 32-year-old survivor of the
Bataan death march went to his grave Friday, cheated by fate
of one more chance to help his fellow veterans.
Joseph S. Smith of Albuquerque, who lived through four years
of imprisonment by the Japanese, had worked constantly since the
war for increased government--
aid to Bataan veterans.
His work ended abruptly last
Tuesday when he died with 27
others in the crash of an air
liner at Dallas, Tex.
Hoover Blasts
'Cheap Polities'
New York, Dec. 3 (U.PJ For
mer President Herbert Hoover,
speaking in behalf of his com
mission s report on reorganiza
tion of the government, used on
ly a few words Thursday night,
but he managed to blast "cheap
politicians," bureaucrats, free
loaders and citizens with corns.
Said Hoover:
"1. There are some bureaus
and departments which are re
solved that reorganization is a
good thing for everybody ex
cept themselves.
2. There are citizens who
have the same idea when their
corns are stepped upon by gov
ernment reorganization.
"3. There are cheap politi
cians who passionately demand
economy and at the same time
make cowardly attacks upon
public officials and members of
congress who practice it on the
orators' constituents.
"4. And above all dangers to
the republic are the groups of
citizens between the ages of 21
and 65 who demand to be fed by
the taxpayer instead of having
the courage to produce a living
for themselves."
Hoover spoke at the inaugural
dinner of the greater New York
Citizens committee for the
Hoover report, which seeks en
actment into law of all the rec
ommendations of the commis
sion report.
In a note left to his family,
Smith asked that an autopsy be
performed on his body, includ
ing a thorough diagnosis of his
stomach. He wanted the report
to be sent to the veterans affairs
committee of congress.
"I request this," Smith wrote,
because I want this committee
to know the condition of hun
dreds of other veterans who
starved for three years as pris
oners of war under the Japanese."
Smith, whose wife gave birth
to child a few days before the
fatal crash, was an employee of
the new war claims commission,
which, among other things, is
delegated to pay reparations for
human losses in World War II.
Several months ago, Smith an
peared with other Bataan vet
erans at a congressional hearing
on veterans affairs. They testi
fied that four years of mistreat
ment in Japanese prison camps
had left them and their com
rades with ailments not always
apparent to a doctor.
An autopsy, Smith told the
congressmen, would be the only
method to really find out how
the men were affected.
Several former Japanese pris
oners have died since their lib
eration. In some cases their
deaths were attributed to a gen
eral physical decline brought
about by starvation and poor
care during imprisonment.
Smith asked his family in his
note to use his body to obtain
the information he thought was
so vital to the veterans program.
Before his funeral at Carls
bad, N. M., his family said it
would be impossible to fill the
final request.
Smith's body was burned so
severely in the Dallas crash that
any attempt at an autopsy
would be useless.
December Is
Cheese Month
Cheese has been a popular
food for thousands of years
going far back into history to
the time of Homer and beyond,
the Oregon cheese industry
points out for Oregon's Holiday
Cheese month, December 1 to
31. "Serve Cheese Send
Cheese" they now suggest.
Cheese graced the banquet
tables of Ceasar and even served
as part of the rations of his con
quering Roman armies. Accord
ing to legend, cheese actually
was "discovered" several thous
and years before Christ by an
Arab herdsman.
In spite of its widespread use,
cheese was not prepared com
mercially until about 100 years
ago. Prior to that time, cheese
making had been practiced only
on farms and in the home and
it was a task for which the wo
men were responsible. The
techniques employed varied
geographically; consequently as
time went on, the production of '
specific types of cheese became
associated with different regions.
Although there are some 400
cheeses recognized by name to
day, the Oregon cheesemakers
point out, they represent varia
tions of only about 20 distinctly
different types or kinds of
cheese.
All the basic types of cheese
are made to a greater or lesser
degree in the state of Oregon.
Here are some of the state's lead
ers: American or Cheddar, Blue,
Brick, Cmembert, Cottage,
Cream, Edam, Limburger, Swiss.
The three greatest fishing
grounds in the world are off the
coast of Europe, northeastern
North America and northeastern
Asia.
