Nine wards were in cellars dug 10 feet down. These were reserved jior patients who could not be mov : ed no matter how close enemv 1 bombs fell during the campaign ! to wrest Okinawa from the Japan i ese. Twenty-one wards were in sand bagged revetments and the remain der were in tents with foxholes for the walking wounded. Tragedy hit this hospital In May when a bombing and strafing by Japanese planes cost 13 lives and wounded 31. HERO KILLED “A real hero was killed.” said Capt. Walter F.

But instead he rushed into the wards to help with the wounded. “When the going was roughest he shoved a patient against a wall and threw himself in front of the man. Both were hit. The wounded man was slightly injured but the corpsman was killed.” Operating rooms buried in the ground look like something from a fantastic story, but in those rooms countless lives were saved. “Ninety per cent of our cases were surgical,” said Capt. Daniel W. Wheeler of Duluth, Minn., the executive officer. “The casualties were more muti lated than any I ever had seen before,” Karbach declared. On the peak day 540 patients were evacuated by the hospital, mostly by air. “It really was a hard job, but a speedy one,” Karbach said. “The most unusual part was the bring ing to us by Cub planes from the front lines men who had been hit only 20 minutes before.” Tire Dealers Cautioned About Certificates Tire dealers in the Charlotte dis trict were cautioned this week about acceptance of new tire cer tificates presumably issued by War Price and Rationing Boards in other states, in a statement by A. M. Hollingsworth, OPA Rationing Officer in Charlotte. Many tire dealers have been vic timized by crooks who have tend ered stolen or counterfeit tire cer tificates, drawn on distant boards, he said. All tire certificates are now be ing sent to the OPA verification center in Atlanta after being turn ed in by dealers, Mr. Hollingsworth explained. All counterfeits are charged against the dealer's in ventory account, he added, which means his stock of new tires will be reduced by that number. In case of any doubt regarding certificates, Mr. Hollingsworth sug gested that tire dealers call their own local War Price and Ra tioning Board for advice on how tr» nrrv'PPri Jap Spies Seeking Mac Arthur Hanged MANILA, July 9—(A")—The Jap anese sent spies into Manila after the capital’s liberation with in structions to determine the loca tion of Gen.

New Process Makes Metallic Magnesium From Silicates RICHMOND, Va., July 9.—(JP)— Dritz J. Hansgirg of Black Moun tain. N. C. has obtained a patent on a method of producing metallic magnesium from magnesium sili cates, the U. S. patent office here has announced. It has been assigned to the North Carolina magnesium development corporation of Asheville. Hansgirg's method is to effect a partial reduction under condition promoting the reduction of the silica content to metallic silicon without affecting the magnesium oxide con tent to any substantial extent. The resulting partially reduced material is then reacted at elevated temper atures whereby the silicon produced reduces the magnesium oxide to form metallic magnesium.

Japs’ Antiaircraft Fire More Accurate WASHINGTON, July 9— (/Ti — The accuracy of Japanese antiair craft fire has improved 100 per cent in the last three months, pre sumably because of expanded use cf radar control, an American airman reported today.

Until recently, the enemy gunners apparently depended to a large extent on visual aiming and tracking. , As to Japanese fighter plane op position, McCarthy said it was his own opinion that the enemy now was able to get no more than 20 per cent of his interceptor planes off the ground. ^HEADACHE Capudlne quickly relieves Headache and soothes the resulting nerve ten sion.
