Congressional Wife Collects
Comics for Heroes in Hospital
Mrs. Carl T. Curtis
Casual Hobby Turns
Into q War Work

It's tedious. somewhat messy and
rather expensive work, but the comic
cartoons collected by Mrs. Carl T.
Curtis and pasted in scrapbooks are
paying huge dividends in the smiles
OF wounded servicemen convalesc-
ing in military hospitals.
The Nebraska Representatives
wife began the hobby several years
ago, she said yesterday, but not until
cartoons began sitting through desk
drawers all over the house did she
decide to put them in books. Last
summer it occurred to her that
servicemen might enjoy them too.
The first few books tried at Walter
Reed Hospital became bedridden
patients No. hit almost overnight.
Last week eight more were sent to
the hospital and six more books are
almost completed.
A political cartoon got her started
on her hobby and she has a sizeable
collection Of these, but the service
men get only comics. The books
are edited carefully to eliminate
anything that might produce the
wrong reaction, hence those deal
ing with home, loved ones, injuries
and politics are skipped.
The cartoons were clipped from
118 papers delivered at her hus-
bands Office when she started. Some
OF these have ceased publication, but
she still has about 100 papers from
which to choose. She doesn't at
tempt to carry the serials dealing
with detectives and mysteries, but
has some books especially edited for
a particular branch of the service.

Although reports have been cur

Pleas that the Secretaries of War
and Navy order military police and
shore patrols to break up nocturnal
"debauchery" involving servicemen
and young girls were placed before
the Andrews subcommittee of the
Senate yesterday as it concluded
hearings on plans for sending run
away delinquents back to their
homes.
The call for sterner attitude on
the part of service police was
sounded by Judge Walter H. Beck
ham OF the Juvenile and Domestic
Relations Court of Miami, Fla, who
also urged curfew for servlcemen
in cities and towns near military
camps as we'll as for children on the
streets"
His plea that soldier "debauchery''
be broken up Immediately brought
statements of support from Senators
Andrews, Democrat, of Florida, and
Fergusion, Republican, of Michigan,
L feel 1t my duty to call the sub
Ject to the attention of the War and
Navy Secretaries" Senator Fergu-
son said. He added that the COM
mittee might see fit to bring out
a resolution" regarding service police

something" about the matter. -
Military Police "Indifferer,t." '
l. Judge Beckham said military
authorities had co-operated with
local authorities in many respects
but that he felt a major factor in
juvenile delinquency, among teen
age girls, was the indifference" of
military police to soldiers dating
young girls. Everybody is just too
easy In dealing with the problem.
he said, adding that civil authori-
ties are "hesitant" to take action
or to cause the arrest of service
men.
Senator Andrews protested that
youths are permitted to 20 out to
dances at midnight and 90 home
as late as am. There is no one
on earth who can control a girl
like her mother can," he said.
Judge Beckham suggested that
the Andrews bill be revised to pro-
hlbit use of social security funds for
the employment or transportation
Of adults who might be assigned to
escort runaway juveniles being sent
home under the proposed plan.
Oppose Funds for Junkets.
He and committee members agreed
the funds should not be used to
create patronage jobs" in this way,
or to provide "junkets" for Federal
employees, riding back and forth
over the country" as escorts to the
juveniles. Judge Beckham said he
though 80 per cent of the children
could 60 back home alone, if pro-
vided railroad or bus tickets and
food, when necessary.
The Florida jurist estimated an
appropriation of 100000 q year
would be sufficient to cover the costs
of returning the runaways and he
strongly recommended that the bill
be not broadened to include care of
the delinquents when they are re-
turned to their homes. State and
local government machinery, he de-
clared, should be adequate to meet
that phase of the problem. Chair
man Andrew agreed.
Adoption Of the Andrews bill, to
free social security aid-to-depend-
ent-children funds for backbone
transportation of juvenile delin-
quents, is being urged by the Juve-
nile judges Association of America.

CHEE(HAk0S
BEAT BEARS,
SCORE 1892

Despite a fourth-quarter rally
that netted them II points and
had the Juneau High School fans
in a frenzy, the Crimson Bears went
down to defeat last night before
the unerring aim of Murray and
Williams of the Cheechakos squad
in the gym, the final score being
38 to 80.
The Bears got off to a slow start,
the tally at the end of the first
quarter standing at to 4. In the
second, with a whole new team OF
reserves in for the High School, the
latter gained only one point. While
the Cheechakos cleaned 10 points.
AT the end of the third, it looked
hopeless for the Crimson Bears,
trailing by Is, and the scoreboard
reading 25 to 10. Then came a
sizzling attack from the Juneau five
that put the Cheechakos on the de-
fensive. but the final whistle blew
before the Bears could capitalize on
their hard-wou gains.
The elusive Scott can be credited
with some excellent floor work, and
Thibodeau spoiled what looked like
a sure basket for Hilliard, who APP
parently was in the clear and was
taking his time. Thibodeau was
credited with a foul, but both free
throws missed. Meade tossed in
three long ones and improves with
every game. A little argument on
the floor and with the officials en-
livened the game for the small
crowd who were scattered through
the bleachers. Don Westover and
Pete Robinson we're the officials.
