Doctors speculated today on the

P. W. Smith, chief state boUer in

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

replace- a pitted and corroded
pressure tank. ' Which is -a . hazard

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."

screen actor Errol Flynn $224,000,
he alleges in a suit filed here

The statement of claim filed
with the Bahamas supreme court
said Duncan McMartin, wealthy
Canadian gold mine owner, struck
the movie actor in a bar at the
Windsor hotel March 5.
Flynn was recuperating from a
spinal injury at the time, the
statement added, and the "vicious
blow on the head" aggravated the
old injury.
Flynn asked $200,000 for loss of'
earning and $24,000 for expenses
and damages resulting from the
beating.

Uncle Sam Plans to Piich

If you are a healthy, unmarried

next few months.
You'll be bombarded by radio.

ments of travel, adventure, roman
ance, education and career train
ing. There will be no doubt left In
your mind, the campaign mana
gers hope, that Uncle Sam loves,
ou, wants you and needs ycu.
The object of all this, of course.
Is to persuade you to put on a
unllorm.
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).
