termine whether they shall recon-
mend pardons for Billings and
Mooney.
Macdonald, itinerant Baltimore
waiter, refused to be shaken from
his story told yesterday. Under
grilling he insisted that he

and Billings after the 1915 Pre-
paredness Day bombing and later
identified" the two in the cells
only after Police Capt. Charles
Golf, then sergeant, pointed out
the pictures and the men TO MIN.
Macdonald asserted that for

Fickert, the prosecutor who con-
vieted Mooney and Billings OF
murder, had coached" him in
minute detail concerning the
testimony he gave. Justice Pres.

tanning police reports by Officer
Peter j. Hughes, stating that
Macdonald identified Billings as

persons.
These reports. hidden for IA

Buddy-pardon it, Charles
has a younger brother who is in
the act Of breaking into the

rather unusual-BH. That's all,
just BIZ. It appears that when
the second Rogers was born, his
family couldn't come to an agree
ment about his name, so tenn
porarily he was called BIZ, his
fathers initials. The matter Of
another name was continued
indefinitely, and when the boy
came to Hollywood that was the

So the studio has appointed
itself godfather and bestowed the
name Of Bruce on BIZ, with his
consent, Of course. Hereafter his
name is Bruce and his brothers
name is Charles. Don't forget.

BIZ Science SerUfce
WASHINGTON, March 19.--More
than 1900 persons suffering from
the last stages of incurable cancer
have been the subjects on whom
Drs. Walter B. Coffey and John B.
Humber of San Francisco have con-
Quoted their experiment Of inject
ing a glandular extract which kills
the cancer tissue, the California
scientists told members Of the SEN
ate commerce committee here.
Their work is in no sense a cure
or treatment, but merely an expert
ment, they declared.
For many years they have studied
the sympathetic nervous system and
the endocrine glands searching for
a stabilizer of tissue growth. Cancer
is a condition IL which tissue
growth is abnormal.
In the cortex of the adrenal
glands, which rest above the kid
neys, these scientists have found
IdIRG dIIlOuliIS VI dLl dAI1fC "a AA4AAD4C
which, they believe, behaves as such
stabilizer. They have injected ex-
tracts of the adrenal corteX. con-
tanning the active principle, into the
bodies of persons in the last stages
of cancer.
Within five or six hours the tor
menting pain is relieved and within
two or three days after the injection
the pain has disappeared complete
ly, they told the senators. Further
more, in the majority of cases the
cancer tissue sloughs off in from
twenty-four to forty-eight hours
after the injection.
Of the 1900 persons receiving the
injections during the last three
years, only fifteen have died, DR..
Coffey said. The injections are
given on certain days of the week
in San Francisco and on other days
in Los Angeles where a theater is
used to hold the clinic.
More than three times 1900 per-
sons have been turned away because

suitable subjects for the experiment,
or because they had not the facili-
ties to handle all the patients who
sought their aid.
No fee ever has been accepted by
either of the doctors for the injec-
tons and if other scientists take up
the method, they will be allowed to
Go so only on the same basis. The
California scientists want the public
to have the entire benefit, rich and
poor alike.

patrol told us we were going hunt

to reunion. SO wasn't disappointed.
Reports came in there was Ger
man sniper in a cemetery between
the line, and our job was to find out
where he was. Nice job crawling
around that cemetery at midnight.
We finally got to the cemetery
like a bunch of night crawlers.
There were fifteen in the patrol
The C. o. said, Now keep together
as much as possible, three PAGES
interval"
So we started. Oh, boy, what
thrill when the fellow on my right
fell into a grave. We had to pull
him out. Those artillery guys did
not know a cemetery was there.
We crawled on, the c. o. next to
a stone fence. He passed word to
halt; he had found something. Sure
enough he had. l went over and
asked him what he had found.
The sniper had dug into a grave
hole about three feet square, plant
ing machine gun and plenty of
ammunition. That bird would just
sit there in the daytime and pick
our boys off in the front line. If
they shelled the cemetery, he would
get in the hole, and all that could
get him would be a direct bullet
into that three-foot hole.
The c. o. told us to get back,
that he was going to get that ma
chine gun out of the hole. He
thought is was connected to a mine
and did not want to blow all of us
up if it was. They all went back
but me. I had to see. The G. o.
thought we were all in the clear.
He started pulling on the machine
gun when he heard ME. He thought
l was the Snipsr. Whami I caught
a hobnaiIed shoe right on the jaw.
He sure did rave.
Well, we tore up the sniper's nest.
Got one good machine gun, and
got one good kick in The jaw. Didn't
