some competition to the first-run
showing Of her story's movie YER

pistol shots in Dorothy's film story,
the lady herself was addressing a
campus audience on the subject of
another lethal weapon, carbon
monoxide.
"The plot of the movie is better,
but carbon monoxide is more
dangerous than all the gunner
who ever shot up the frontier
West" Miss Johnson declared. Her
interest in the oderless gas that
kills automobile riders was arous-
ed following a motoring accident
in which she was a victim. In re-
cent months, she has addressed a
number of audiences, official and
otherwise on carbon monoxide and
its potential dangers.
