Woman Being Cured Os Gambling Urge Drug Treatments Ordered By Court Los Angeles, June 3. — (UP) — A 47-year-old grandmother said today that drug treatments ordered by a court were curing her of an ‘‘urge to gamble” that nearly wrecked her life. Psychiatrists said that Mrs. Sula Belle Stimson acted under a “compulsive, almost hynotic urge” when she began gambling last fall after • living all her life as a good, moral-ly-upright citizen. She had been happily married 29 years and was the mother of seven children when she suddenly began gambling. She plunged all her grocery money at Gardena, Cal., poker parlors and then cashed bad checks to gamble some more. She was arrested twice for the bad checks. The first time, superior judge Fred Miller let her off with a 30-day sentence because of her good record. When she was arrested again, he ordered a medical examination that disclosed her “urge” ’ ■!'“ i - IS*- ’

Commissioning On Sunday Afternoon The commissioning ceremony of the United States naval reserve and marine corps reserve training cepter at Fort Wayne will be held Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the center located at 2502 Dwenger avenue. Rear Admiral J. Cary Jones, USN, commandant of the ninth naval district, will be the officer in charge. Gene Ziner, of this city, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clarance Ziner, is a recruit in the naval reserve and will take part in the ceremony. Gene enlisted in the reserve corps about four months ago. f to gamble. Dr. Albert Marinacci, county hospital physician, and Dr. Marcus Crahan, county jail doctor, said they believed a comparatively new drug, glutamic acid, might help. Miller ordered her treated. “I feel much better mentally already,” Mrs. Stimson said today. “1 want to be released so I can show people how much I have improved.” Crahan, however, said Mrs. Stimson probably tfould need two months more treatment and even then the cure might not be permanent. Marinacci said her “urge” began when some of her btaih cells stopped functioning normally. She changed completely from a woman of high moral and ethical standards to one with complete disregard for responsibility. “She is compelled to gamble with full knowledge of the consequences but with helplessness to desist,”” Crahan said. “She is not a criminal in the moral sense of the definition." Marinacci said Mrs. Sfmson is (treated with 12 grams of glutamic acid daily. The drug Increases the oxygen supply to brain cells, returning them to normal function. Miller ordered Mrs. Stimson to stay in the jail hospital until she is cured. Her husband, James L. Stimson, an oil field mechanic, estimated that she lost between $4,000 and $5,000 at Gardena poker tables. He said he never had played cards much himself, except for an occasional game of pinochle, and “I don't knortv if I even remember how to play that.” Stimson said he and the children were glad his wife was getting the cure. All national highways are numbered according to their general direction. East-west are even-num-bered; north-south are odd-number-ed.

Fighling To Keep FBI Man From Jail Refused To Produce Confidential Record Chicago, June 3 — (UP) — Fed eral attorneys fought to keep Chi cago FBI chief George R. McSwain from going to jail today for refusing to produce confidential FBI records on the case that sent a notorious gangster to prison. Federal judge John P. Barnes sentenced McSwain to “the custody of the attorney general” for contempt of court yesterday until McSwain gives up the subpenaed racotds. The Squabble rose in a hearing on charges by Roger (The Terrible) Tonhy that state and federal Jfficers connived with Touhy’s enemies to "railroad” him to prison. » Robert Johnstone, Touhy’s lawyer, asked the FBI records on the case. McSwain refused to give them up as breaking FBI regulations. U. S. attorney Otto Kerner, Jr., said doing so would “probably result in the death of at least one man and the possible loss of more Ilves.” He presumably referred to the possibility that they would disclose the identity of confidential FBI informers and “stool pigeons.” Barnes pronounced the sentence and U. S. court bailiffs took McSwain into the office of the U. S. marshal. Kerner quickly filed a petition asking the U. S. court of appeals to order the FBI man’s release on habeas cornus. McSwain waited in the marshal's office, puffing a big, black cigar and smiling at reporters’ questions which he answered with “no comment.” The appeals court told Kerner that his petition should have been filed in a district court. Kerner’s aides hurried to draw up more papers while Kerner rushed to a district court and filed a notice of appeal. Then Kerner charged back to the appeals court where McSwain was released on his own recognizance pending the appeal. Touhy contends that Factor staged the kidnaping with the help of Bome Touhy subordinates. The reason behind it, the gangster i said, was to keep Factor from be- | Ing Extradited to England to face multl-mlllion dollar swindling charges. After Factor returned to his old hauhts, Touhy contends, state and federal officials worked to “frame” Touhy with the charge.

As this thinking varied with the changes of sentiment in the communities, and as greatly opposed factions developed in the board, it became increasingly difficult to know the will of the majority. But I am still willing to keep on trying, if the majority shall so decide.” The world’s largest supersonic wind tunnei, in which winds of about 1,500-miles-per-hour velocity can be produced has been unveiled in Cleveland by the National Advisory Committee for Aeuronautics.
