Bt SID HOLLINGSWORTH
Chief Moneypenny of ,the
Guard Force is the man every
one knows at Camp White.
He is an ex marine captain
and was wounded severely in
World War I, for which he was
decorated with the Purple Heart
With three stars. It is the one
decoration he is proud to-possess.
This much everyone knows
about his service record, but not.
many at the domiciliary know
the story of how he retained his
left arm when it bothered him
after the war, and the doctors
wanted to amputate.
He wouldn't let them because
an Army doctor in France said
"never let anyone amputate that
arm."
When Captain Moneypenny
was at the Naval supply depot at
Velox, he was a member of the
Spokane club. And the facts
were told to the membership
and published in the paper.
Here is the true story of how
Chief Moneypenny kept his

good left arm.
"Subsequently, he was sent
back to the United States. He
was in 14 different hospitals in
Zt years, and -14 different
American doctors wanted to am
putate his arm. He wouldn't let
them.
"He finally looked up the doc
tor who had told him not to have
it amputated. He was a society
doctor in New York. The cap
tain reminded the doctor of
what he had told him in France,
and the doctor said he could see
what he could do.
"The captain told the doctor
he had $1,400 and was willing
to give it all if his arm could be
saved. The doctor treated him
and saved the arm. He wouldn't
let the captain pay him a cent.
"The captain wanted to do
something for the doctor so he
went to a jewelry store and
bought the finest wrist watch on
the market at that time, and sent
it to the doctor.
"By the time he got back to
his barracks, there was a check
from the doctor for the full
price of the watch."
If anyone reading this miracle
account would like to know the
name of the doctor the only an
swer consistent with the facts' is
"the man nobody knows."

Nude Body of
Teenager Found
On Desert Road
' Palm Springs, Calif. U.R)
me nuae and bloody tody of a
teen-age girl found on a desert
road near here early Wednesday
has been identified by Riverside
Sheriff's- deputies as that of 16-
year-old Cathryn Knodel of Red
lands.
The body, found lying in the
middle of a road connecting this
movieland resort city with Thou
sand Palms, was, identified by
the victim's, father, Erwin Kno
del.
Father Identifies Body
. Knodel, who filed a missing
persons report on his daughter
after she failed to return home
Tuesday night, hurried to Wie
fels mortuary here when the re
port of the murder reached him
and sadly made the identifica
tion. ' Deputies said they still were
unable to ascertain whether the
Victim had been criminally at
tacked. They also added they
are "checking a few leads" as to
possible suspects, but refused to
disclose what they were.
The girl's mother, Mrs. Marie
Knodel, said from the family
home in Redlands that the slain
girl had been out in the after
noon!. Tuesday with other girl
friends, but came home to eat
dinner.
Mother Absent
Mrs. Knodel said she left the
home late Tuesday with her oth
er children, Irwin, 10; Edwin, 7,
and Carolyn, 4, to attend a swim
ming meet in Redlands, leaving
the victim in the house watching
television.
The mother stated that when
she returned home three hours
later she found all the lights
turned on in the house and the
doors open. -The
mother said her daughter
wasn't wearing shoes when she
left the house. The fact the body
was found without shoes led
deputies to believe the victim
had -either been forcibly taken
from the house or left in the
company of an intimate friend
or friends.
