On Flag Ads
CHICAGO, April 16 (U. p.)—
vision 6, today charged the Chicago Gospel tabernacle with “discourtesy” to the American flag for flying advertising pennants from the same: flag pole. Members of the ocD division threatened to remove the flag staff within two days because pennants advertising a children’s revival were flown under the flag. OCD members, who erected the pole on the tabernacle grounds, removed the national emblem in protest. The advertising pennants now fly alone. The Rev. Clarence Erickson ot the tabernacle said he was told “it was permissable to fly the pennants as long as the church flags were below the American flag.”

Many Who Think They Have High Blood Pressure
Seen as Normal.
CHICAGO, April 18 (U. P.) ~The current issue of the American Medical Association Journal said today that many persons over 40 years of age who believe they are suffering from high blood pressure may be sl entirely normal. The article said recent experiments have shown that almost half of the persons in upper age groups have blood pressures above the customary limit, 150 and/or 90 or over, and recommended that the
be raised.
“The’ presence of hypertension at| E

be considered abornmal,” the article said, basing the statement on blood-
pressure readings of 14,849 persons =
over 40 years old: Urges Raise in Limits
The three authors who conducted the investigation were Cmdr. A. M. Master, medical corps U. 8S. N. R.; Dr. H. H. Marks of Bethesda, Md., and Capt. Simon Dack, medical corps, U. 8S. army. “Limits of ‘normal blood pressure

51 per cent of the women over 40 would be expected to have blood pressures of 150/80 or more; over 50

‘Mention a general in the army air forces today and chances are that Master Sergt. Vernon G. Leary,
now in charge of Schoen field at Ft. Harrison, will lean back and tell you a story about him.
MacArthur? . . . Sure, the sergeant drove the general's car while he was chief of staff. “He's a real soldier—and not by an act of congress,” the 62-year-old sergeant said. “When he wanted to go somewhere, he wanted to go right now and by the shortest route.” Lieut. Gen. Delos Emmons, who now is in charge of the army at Hawaii? . . Yes, the sergeant has flown with him. Maj. Gen. Ira Eaker, head of the 8th U. S. air forces in England? . + « “He’s one of the best fliers in
to fly with him.” And the late Gen. William (Billy) Mitchell? . . « The sergeant was in charge of boats used to rescue the general's pilots when they were forced down in the Atlantic. The sergeant’s stories ought to be pretty good—he’s had 38 years military pervice in which to collect them. He's been with the air force since. He’s been stationed at almost every major army airport in the country. And he’s seen the air force grow from, Jennies and DeHavilland’s to P-38's and P-40's. Friend of Ramey He came here June 10, 1942, from Charleston, 8. C., where he helped set up a new army air field. Out at Schoen field, he’s in charge of air force supplies, kept there in a subdepot which is under the main storage plant at the state fairgrounds. He spends about 23 out of every 24 hours a day at the field, running out to eat only when he feels hungry. Nights he spends sleeping on a cot in his office. At one time, he was flying over some mountains with Col. Stanley Umpstead, the pilot who test flew the huge B-19 for the army. “I told him I thought I heard a funny noise coming from the motor,” the sergeant said. “Pretty soon it grew louder—right in the midst of mountains and miles from an airport. “Finally, we did spot an airport and set down in a hurry. The colonel, who then was a lieutenant, stopped the ship—and the propeller fell to the ground.” The sergeant was a close friend of Brig. Gen. Howard K. Ramey, who was with Gen. MacArthur in Australia. “We were stationed together at Bolling field, Washington,” the ser-

said, “when he was still a lieutenant. “Almost every week-end he'd ask me if I felt like flying. . .. I'd get in with him and we'd fly to Virginia where he would land in the front yard of his girl's house in the country. . . . I'd sit on the front porch drinking milk and eating cake while he courted. “One day the lieutenant told me he was going to marry her. He told me he’d like to have me attend the wedding. I saw them married and then he was transferred. I only saw him a few times after that—but I've kept track of his rise through newspaper clippings. “The last clipping I have is this one,” the sergeant said. It was Gen. MacArthur's announcement that Gen. Ramey was missing in action.”
WOMAN, 72, FREED IN SHOOTING CASE
MADISON, Ind., April 16 (U.-P.). —Seventy-two-year-old Mrs. Catherine Colen was free today of charges of assault and battery with intent to murder.

Results ‘will not be known for some time.
