F Y FORT TO CLOSE Laredo, Tex. U.fO Historic Fort Mcintosh, an army post for nearly 100 years, is going to be closed. An old frontier fort, built near this Mexican border city just after the Mexican War In 1849, It was occupied first by a com pany of Texas Mounted Volun teers, commanded by Capt. Mira beau B. Lamar, second president of the Republic of Texas, which had become a state four years earlier. The oost originally was named Camp Crawford, but was renam ed In honor of Lt. Col. James S. Mcintosh, who, died of wounds luffered at the battle of Molino del Rey. When the Civil War started. Federal troops left the fort and it was taken over by the state for the Southern Confederacy. Texas men wearing the gray of the south successfully defended Fort Mcintosh against Union troops. After the war, U. S. cavalry again took over the fort and it has been garrisoned continuous ly since 1865, although authoriz ed strength at "the post was only 10 officers and 54 enlisted men at the time of the order to end Its service.

Cobra Venom Used As Substitute For Morphine In War Manila (U.R) Next time you need relief from pain, don't ask for morphine, because it's habit-forming. Ask for cobra venom. That is the recommendation of T3 George Turney, Highland Park, Mich., who held the uni que job of cobra tender at the University of the Philippines. Turney, who recently passed through the 21st Replacement Depot en route home and a dis charge, said another advantage of cobra venom as anesthetic is that the effect lasts several days. The guerrilla forces used the cobra venom as substitute for morphine during the war. The venom has since been used ex perimentally at the state univer sity. During his tenure as custodian of the reptiles. Turney collected an estimated $37,000 worth of venom. Soldier Memorial To Honor Heroes Of World War II Semmes. Ala.
