COLD RING HARBOR,
N. Y.-"Are you all right?" The
woman's voice over the tele-
phone was tense.
On the answer to her ques-
ton hung the fate of a penicillin
experiment which might affect
all mankind.
But her concern was for a
young colleague, who alone at
night in a deserted laboratory
was self-strapped into an oxy-
gen-mask, pumping penicillin
for the first time into human
lungs to put his experiment to
the crucial test. He was 31-year-
old Vernon Bryson, research
scientist of the Long Island Bio
logical Laboratory, who one
night last June pulled a success
full experiment from his test
tubes which may chalk up an
other triumph for the wonder
drug.
Proof of its great promise is
that his method for inhaling
penicillin is in experimental use
in the Huntington Long Island
Hospital and in the College OF
Physicians and Surgeons OF
New York's Columbia Presby-
terrain Medical Center. Promis-
mig to be a more effective cure
for pulmonary diseases, the new
method of administering the yell
low magic is to have patients
drag 1t into their lungs in a mis-,
of fine particles. This gets bigger
doses more directly to infected
lung areas.
COLLEAGUES HELP
In developing the method
Bryson had the help of two
colleagues. One, whose tele.

You've never heard of the
fourth Andrews sister? The one
who was humming in the wings
of a Philadelphia theater one
night while the sisters were sing
ing. A comic named Kenny
Youngman listened for a mo-
ment and said, well, so you're
the fourth Andrews sister,"
The name stuck. A little guy
named Lou Levy, who SMOKES
cigars, has been the fourth An
drews sister ever since.
Lou is an ex-Charleston dane
err who found the Andrews Sis
tiers singing ballads for peanuts
and discovered they could sing
boogie-woogie for millions. He's
been their manager ever since.
In fact, he's one of the family.
He married Maxine.
$50 I wouldn't have to pay
him 10 per cent" Maxine says.
But, says Levy, chuckling, II
married the wrong sister. She
doesn't like to dance. Patti
knows all my dance routines.
When we 60 out I always dance
with Patti and Maxine gets mad.
Sure we fight" he said.
"How would you like to manage
three danes? But they always
come around to my way Of
thinking. It's funny, thought
can convince Patti easier than
my own wife"
OWNS SIX MUSIC FIRMS
Lou Levy is very smart man.
He's only 33. When the Andrews
Sisters clicked, he started buy
ing music companies with his
commissions. He now owns six
of them, including the big Leeds
Music Publishing Co. BY q
strange coincidence, the An
drews Sisters are always sing
ing songs that Levy owns. He
collects both ways, handles a
couple of million dollars year.
He hoofed his way into show
business from New York's lower
east side. At 18 he won a
Charleston contest in New York.
1--WE were sensational" he says,
modestly. 1--WE danced like the
kids dance today. We were 20
years ahead of our time"
Bob Hope saw Lou and signed
him for his vaudeville act at the
Palace. Then he toured the
country, dancing with bands

champions and beat 'em every
time"

said. II was going in reverse

One night in 1897 Lou heard
the Andrews Sisters singing a
the Hotel Edison in New York.
"They were singing ballads
like Might and Day and they
were pretty awful" Lou said.
But he had ideas. A couple o.
songwriters he was managing
Sammy Calm and Saul Chaplin
had Just written English lyrics
to the Jewish song "Bei Mir Bis
du Schoen." Maybe, he figured
he could get the Andrews Sis
tiers to record the number. He't
collect all around.
He talked them into recording
"Bei Mir" and both the song ane
singers were overnight hits. :"

In fact, If it wasn't for Lou
Levy you would never hear the

the track with hot ticks. Lou is
always yelling, "Stick to the

HELP FOR HOLLAND

To most Americans the Dutch have always SEEM
ed quaint people with their windms, wooden
shoes. tups storks wide storched cops and wider
breaches We've chuckIed at them and the queer
cIockino Language, but we have olso admired them
for their industry and neotness, their oPPlecheeked
health and their resourcefuI battle against the en-
crooching SEQ.
Perhaps the average Americans picture Of the
Netherlands has been bitterness and unrest and
bleak poverty Yet in the main our impression OF
healthy, happy people hos probably been accurate.
At Ieost it was until May 10, 1910.
On that day, nearly five years ago, commenced
what is doubtless the most trogc chapter OF Dutch
history. The Germans invaded the Low Countries to
"protec them from the Allies Four days later, otter
the Dutch armies had coptuloted the luftwoffe flew
over the qreot city of Rotterdom unoPposed, and
bombed it to rubble.
From then on the night Of terror grew bloeker.
The Nozis, early convinced that their brutality was
not forgotten or forgiven by their Dutch neghbors,
resorted to cruelty The stoutheorted Dutch fought
back as best they could with sabotage, passive resist
once, disobedience and ridcuIe.
Lost fall release seemed imminent. Allied armies
drove up from Belgium to free the southern Neither
lands Provinces Then the Germans held And for the
greater part of the country still in Maxi hands, the
The Germans opened dkes and dams and poured
the bitter brine Of sea water over land made sweet
and fertile by the toll Of generations. The important
source Of food thus lost cannot be reclaimed, it is
thought for at least ten years. Starvation thus wos
added to indignity and fear.
In the ruins Of the once proud city Of Rotterdam,
and in the streets Of Amsterdam and the Hague, HoI
lenders dropped and died Of starvation each doy.
There was food only for the German eonquerors And
their cruel fury apparently increased as defect loon-
ed nearer.
Now at last the day Of liberation is at hand -
not only for the Dutch but also for the English
the Germans are driven from their V-bomb instoIIo
tons or the Netherlands coost And there is nothing
in all the present tide Of Allied victory that brings
greater cause for solemn rejoicing.
Relief organizations apparently are prepared to
move in quickly once the Nozis are driven out. And
there is urgent need for haste. The little country
whose markets once obounded in golden butter and
cheese, rich cream and other enticng food is
without sufficient breed for most Of it's people,
Each days delay in bringing food to them will mean
the deoth Of hundreds more.
1t is in part, for such people as the Dutch that
we have been asked to tighten our belts As think
Of them we might reflect on the meoeerness Of the
sacrifice we are asked to make.

Occupation Danger Period
Over, Domei Head Says

TOKYO, Sept. (P.-Inosuke
Furuno, president of Domei, declared
he felt the danger period" Of the
occupation now had passed and
that there was little prospect of in
cidents marring the American ex-
pansion in Japan.
Furuno, whose position as head of
the press agency is virtually equal
to cabinet rank. said he personally
was surprised that the surrender
had been accomplished with so little
trouble.
He added that he thought any
troubles being hrewed by japanese
fanatics would have occurred by
now.
Other sources disclosed that young
soldiers had burned down the Of
fetal residences of the Premier and
foreign minister a few days ago
but said there had been no large
scale movement against accepting
the surrender.
Furuno declared that while many
difficult economic problems lay
ahead, Japan would attempt to
solve them insofar as possible with
out requesting outside help.
I'VE can produce enough food
for the people now living in the
islands" he said, but we may need
assistance if japanese are returned
from Manchuria, China, Korea and
Formosa."
The Domei agency, meanwhile
announced through Saiji Hasegawa
chief of its foreign service anG
formerly its London correspondent
that the Domei Tokyo headquarters
would set aside a room for Allied
correspondents and would supply
them with Domei's foreign and do.
