1t. Doris, Morgan Writes
From India

Word is received here that 1t.
Doris Morgan is in the hospital
IN India at present, the result of a
severe Atabrine reaction. Atabrine
has not had enough research work
done on it and some very drastic
conditions have resulted from its
use. 1t. Morgan's eyes, neck and
left arm were affected when she
wrote Aug. IS, and she expressed
hope it would not spread to her
face. She says they have been fly
ing doctors, other nurses. officers
and enlisted men home with it. Alta
brine affects the skin and is called
Lichen Planus. She admits it may
be very serious, and she will need
to be in the hospital for four weeks.
II by that time she isn't better she
Will be brought back to the States.
She has seen men with their minds
and memories gone, but who have
been cured after they were in the
States. Quite number of 1t. Nor
gan's squadron have been i'll. Alta
brine is a suppression for Malaria,
and they can court martial person
for refusal to take it. Doris thinks
she would almost rather have Ma
laria. The nurses in her squadron
have had to take Atabrine every
day since February. It takes about
six months before it actually shows
the effects. There are so many di-
seases in India and the nurses have
been sick more or less since arriv-
ing there. She says they look at |
least 10 years older than they are.
The span Of life among the Indians
OF the jungle and tea patches is
from Is to 80 years.

BETTE IS JITTERY
 AT 3RD MARRIAGE

RIVERSIDE, Calf, Dec. You'd think by now that Bette Davis could carry off any scene with aplomb, particularly a wedding. Time and again she's stepped off the wedding march in pictures, and twice before she's done it in real life.
 But she was just another Jittery bride yesterday as she wed her third husband, William Grant Sherry, in candlelit St. Francis Chapel of Riverside's Mission Inn.
 For five paces she couldn't even get in step with her new step-father, Robert WOOdOuI 7 Ees e=l l.,, CT Of Boston And the something borrowed, her sisters lace handkerchief, was near ly in shreds when Dr. Francis c. Ellis of the First Congregational Church concluded the ceremony.

'COUNTER-ATTACk'
 STARS PAUL MUM
 IN CAPITOL BILL

Said to be the thrilling story of Russian guerilla fighters and a group of paratroopers in a raid on Ia German-held outpost, Columbia Pictures "Counter-Attack" will bring Paul Muni in the starring role and Marguerite Chapman and Larry Parks in featured roles to the Cap itol Theatre Sunday and Monday only.
 Preview reports tell us that his current characterization is proving to be one of Munis most outstand- ing. Cast as a Russian paratroop- CT, he is to be seen without any kind of makeup except for couple of days growth of beard. The role is a gruelling one, we are inform ed, but one to which Muni can bring all the great force of his his- trionic past. Incidentally, this Rus sian is the twelfth nationality he has portrayed on the screen.
 Marguerite Chapman is cast in a vivid portrayal which is said to be her strongest to date. There is adventure to stir the blood of every man! Drama to touch the heart of every woman! Excitement to thrill you beyond measure! All the mighty impact of fighting mans fury. His is a story of to- day. His is the glory forever thrilling with tenseness . tower ing with bigness the screens most powerful triumph of suspense.

Treasury ofncials believe sports
can be the most effective way of
selling $25 bonds to small purchas-

basis with certain cities doing most

Hating Turner Effort
To Book Wright Here
Brings Hot Debate

In the middle, as usual, Joe Fan
was wondering what it was all about
today as the District Boxing Com
mission and Matchmaker Gabe
MenendeZ continued a tiff over a
dusky featherweight fighter from
Durango, Mexico, known as Chalky
Wright.
Menendez wants to book Wright
for bout with Sammy Daniels in
Turner'S Arena next Tuesday night.
The commission says nothing doing
Commissions argument: Wright
Is under suspension until April II
for running out on a bout with
Jackie Wilson here last summer.
The ban must stick If the ring board
is to have any control over boxing.
Menendez's argument: The fight
boards suspension of Wright never
went into effect. He fought big
money bouts in New York, Cleve-
land and Philadelphia since his bak
here. Ohio and Pennsylvania are
supposed to have agreements with
the District commission on suspen-
sions.
The matchmaker also contends
that Joe Turner dropped an esti-
mated $500 when Wright walked
out. and feels that the battler could
redeem himself by going through
with fight here.
Adding to the befuddlement is
the New York Fight Managers
Guild, known on Jacobs Beach as
the Guilt" The Guilt" has
boycotted Turner for instigating
Wright's suspension. Turner says
I'm willing to book Wright here,
but how can do it when the Boxing
Commission says nix"
