W Melvin Hew itt was dead, and now he is alive but he may not be the same man he was before he spent those IS minutes in eternity. Doctors speculated today on the personality changes that may have taken place while the 28-year-old navy veteran was lileless yester-' day. OPERATION Nevertheless, they operated. They School Heat Plants Safe SALEM, W All school heating plants in Oregon now are safe, P. W. Smith, chief state boUer in spector, said yesterday. Smith said his staff has inspect ed boilers and hot water tanks in the schools, and ordered a few of them out oi service. Smith said he had a tough fight with one school board to get it to replace- a pitted and corroded pressure tank. ' Which is -a . hazard to the .-chlldren; .(-. '..; : Smith said . school boilers are checked twice a year. - cut. a hole in his chest and mas saged his heart until Hewitt be gan breathing. It was believed to be the longest period in medical history that a person has been without life and then revived. Hewitt later was transferred to tha veterans hospital here. His con dition remains "critical" but as his doctor sayst "he's alive, and that's very satisfactory." One of the two doctors who per formed the thoracotomy said Hew itt's brain may have been dam aged in the 15 minutes it was without circulation of blood dam aged enough to change the man's entire personality. "He may have even a complete amnesia," the doctor said. That would mean that Hewitt, even if he recovers, would not remember any of his past life. He would truly be beginning a "second life." IN BALANCE "As far as I know," the doctor said, "five minutes is the maxi mum time the brain can survive without damage. He has not re gained consciousness yet. Perhaps he never will." Meantime Hewltts estranged wife waits at his bedside. "Our separation was only a mis understanding," she said, "and I know he may never recognize me again. But I hope he wakes up at least once to know we're pray ing for him." Flynn Sues In Brawl NASSAU.

SALVO The opening guns of an all-out recruitment drive will be (Ired throughout the coun.ry November 11, with the goal of enlisting 112,- 000 women In all branches of the armed services by July. 1952. The present total of U. S. serv ice women. Including nurses. Is 30- 000. It seems the current women's recruitment drive hns been some thing of a flop. The girls have turned a cold and fishy eye on the best lures of military life. Aft- all, thev have had a wide choice of careers lately. Business and Industry have been bidding ; frantically for their services. A i good secretary these days can al- i most name her own salary and i take her pick of jobs. The burgeoning bureaus in Wash ington have had lo send teams out through the country to lure typist and secretaries Into government jobs. Business men have been tear Ing their hair and offering such things as daily cocktail parties and prospective husbands to reluctant stenos. Now the girls are to get both barrels of the latest promotional blat, designed to convince them that they'll find the end of the rainbow In military service. ACl'TE NEKD There Is no doubt that the need for service women is acule. And the opportunities for specialized careers have been Increased 100 fold. At the beginning of world war two, only four Jobs were open to Wacs: secretaries, cooks, clerks and chauffeurs. Today the services list 359 dif ferent Jobs open to women, rang ing all the way from radar and ; electronics to photobraphy and automobile repair. It Is stressed that young women enlisting In any branch of the serv ices, but especially In the women's air force, will have a high proba bility of overseas service. Enlisted women and non-com' draw bnse pay ranging from $16 monthly private's pay for the first four months of service to $11S.4S for a master ser'icnnt. An enlist ment, bonus is oMd In advance, ranging from M0 for a three-year-hitch to $360 for a six-year term. I Additional bonuses are paid for foreign service. And all this, the government Is quick to point out, is gravy, alnce food, ' quarters, clothing, dental and medical care are all free. Officers draw pay' ranging from $313.75 for second lieutenant to $4M for a lieutenant colonel, phi monthly subsistence and quarters allowances, and Increases after certain terms of service. Biggest enlistment drive Is for women's air force, which now hap 8000 women, wants 48,000. Wao en rollment Is now 11,000, with a goal of 30.000. Waves have 5000, want 10,000, There are 6273 army nurses, and 7000 are needed. An nurses are wanted, to raise the total to 4700. The navy has 3308 nurses, wants as many more as It can get. OTHERS In addition, there Is a big de mand for enlistees In the army and air force WM8C (women's medical specialists corps), whleh Includes dieticians and physlcul and occupational therapists. So don't be surprised if a hand some young recruiting officer gives you the eye one of these fine days, and before you know It, you may find yourself in a uni form designed by Hattle Carnegie (for the Wac) or Malnboclier (for the Waves).
