On Saturday, September II,
Hollywood's major effort to date
to present the Negro problem"
on the r will open at Loews
Theater. "Home of the Brave" will
arrive on that date. Produced by
Screen Players Corporation it stars
James Edwards and Jeff Corey.
With a running time Of sc minutes
it is produced by Stanley Kramer
and directed by Mark Robson.
The picture concerns the mental
agitations of a Negro CT who has
been paralyzed from the waist
down partly as the result of frus-
STATIONS over his experiences as a
member of the Negro minority.
Altho the film has been criticized
from several quarters, it has gen
orally been placed or the "must"
list of m%oviegoers.
The useof the term, n----r,
is frequent in the picture. The Ne
gro CT displays an unusually great
amount of sulking and diffidence,
even to the point Of letting some
n else avenge an insult. But it
he is at times unconvincing, the
role Of the psychiatrist is adequate

Producer Kramer rehearsed the
cast for two weeks, as if for a
stage play, James Edwards, who
plays the leading role, had had no
previous film experience.
Once it had been rehearsed,
"Hofe of the Brave" was filmed
in three weeks, three production
units shooting simultaneously: on
at the studio, one at the beach
and athird on location at Baldwin
Park for jungle sequences. While
shooting was going on, the film
was also being edited, so that three
days after the cameras stopped
grinding, Krafer had a fully-edited
feature length film ready for
United Artist release.

that multiple wounds appear to
be the rule in battlefield deaths .
To be killed by a shell you
usually have to be close to the
burst. The fragments lose their
lethal velocity at a relatively short
distance. On the other hand, II
you are close enough to be badly
wounded by one fragment. you are
likely to be struck by many OF
them.
In the New Georgia-Burma
studies, it was learned that 80 per
cent of those killed by mortar and
artillery fragments were less than
10 yards from the point OF burst.
Eighty per cent of those killed by
rifle and machine-gun fire were
hit at ranges of less than 100
yards.
Other Facts Disclosed:
Here are some other facts dis
closed by the studies:
/. Very few men die from
wounds in the legs or arms. More
than three-fourths of the men so
wounded recover without leaving
the theater in which they are
fighting.
2. Men who are wounded in the
head, chest, or abdomen usually
don't survive, unless the wound

Artillery Toll Heaviest
In Batt|e;; U. 5. Report
On Casualties Finds
Nv the Associoted Press


Big guns kill the most soldiers.
Yet rifles and machine guns are
the most deadly. A hit from bull
let is far more likely to cause
death than a hit from a shell
fragment.
These are some of the facts
brought out in a report on battle
casualties made for the Army
Ground Forces. It was "classi-
fed" until recently and so not
available for publication. The In
fantry Journal in its September
issue reviews its findings.
Facts about death in action are
hard to find. Medical men sell
dom have time to study battlefield
dead. Usually about the only data
the Army gets is from graves
registration personnel. who can
make only rough guesses.
A few careful studies, however,
were made in the last war. The
most thorough was done by medi-
cal personnel in the Bougainville,
New Georgia and Burma CAM
paiens. They found that a SOL
dier had the least chance OF sur
viving If he were hit by a ma
chine-gun bullet. Next came the
rifle, then artillery, mortar and
grenade, in that order. At Bou-
gainville So per cent of machine
gun casualties died, yet only per
cent of grenade casualties failed
to survive.
Rifle and machine-gun bullets
have high velocity; the shock ef-
feet is lethal. One hit often Is
enough to finish you.
Multiple Wounds Common.
But in large-scale engagements,
wounds by shell fragmentation
don't come one at time. The
Japanese didn't have massed artil-
lery in the Bougainville and other
early campaigns. The Germans
had it in Europe and Africa, how
ever. There the story was dlf-
ferent.
One thorough study of 1000
battlefield dead was made by
medical officers in Italy. They
found that IS per cent Of the
deaths were caused by fragmenta-
ton wounds - artillery, bomb,
grenade or mortar Only 10.7 per
cent of the deaths there were
caused by gunshot wounds.
The difference was that those
who died from augmentation had
an average Of seven wounds. Those
who died from gunshot had an
average of 1.6 bullet hits. The
conclusion drawn in the report is

is superficial. II it is penetrating.
it is fatal more often than not.
Helmets prevent deep head wounds
by shell fragments. Light chest
armor would defect missiles, save
many lives.
3. Infantrymen, representing
only IA per cent of the strength
of the army overseas. received
10 per cent of the cumulative
battle casualties. Further, the
rifle company receives twice as
many casualties as any other
type of company in an infantry
division. And riflemen suffer al
most five times as many casualties
as any other group of men in the
division.
4. "The fact that a large pro-
portion of our casualties are due
to our own fire is little known" ?"
says the Infantry Journal. "Ac-
curate figures exist only for iso-
