Hollywood 'To The Rescue' With Movie On Korean War
Hollywood—(U.P.) The producer who made Hollywood's first movie about the Korean war discovered that the part of California which looks most like Korea is just a hop from his home.
The fields the North and South Koreans fight it out on in" Korean Patrol" are just over the hill from the swanky Hollywood homes and swimming pools in Bel-Air and Brentwood.
"We looked over a lot of California to find a location" producer Jack Schwarz said. "These hills look exactly like newsreel and newspaper shots of the real place."
The movie Korea is dry, hilly country with dusty dirt roads, scrubby oaks, weeds and genuine fleas.
It took Schwartz and Walter Shenson three months after the Korean war started to get their picture rolling, but they expect Eagle-Lion to have it in the theaters by the end of October.
That may not beat the U. N. armies in mopping up the North Koreans, but at least it will beat all the big producers who've announced big movies.
The South Koreans in the picture are played by Chinese actors and the North Koreans are played by Chinese with mean expressions.
"We're using new Chinese faces, though," Shenson explained. "We're not trying to pass off any of the old ones—one boys or Korean soldiers."
Shenson said they're being mighty realistic about all the details of a minor military action, even though they might have to shoot 10 days instead of nine.

"When you're making a movie about the army, you have 15 million experts in the audience," he said. "The leading man, Dick Emory, jumped up in the middle of an attack scene and shouted, 'The army wouldn't do it this way.' So we did the scene over and had him show us the right way."
"We have a girl in this picture playing a Korean refugee. And every guy in the company brought pictures from the paper to show us how Korean women really wear their hair."
New Hormone May Be Taken In Tablet Form
New York, Oct. 16—(U.P.)-Cortisone, the hormone that gives relief in some forms of arthritis, can now be taken in pill or capsule form by mouth with the same effectiveness as by needle, a group of doctors reported today.
The development is significant in that it means chronically ill persons who may need Cortisone regularly, as a diabetic needs his insulin, will not have to have a daily injection by needle.
The report was made by doctors of the Hospital for Special Surgery and the Cornell Medical University college.
Cortisone, which is gradually becoming more plenitiful, has been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic fever, gout and some types of leukemia, and is generally described as the "hottest thing in medicine right now." It has been given by injection into a muscle.
The Cornell doctors said it now has been given by mouth to four patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Each tablet contained 100 milligrams, and the total amount ordained, given by needle was administered.
"In all patients," the doctors said, "Cortisone taken in tablet form effected improvement in the rheumatic disease. In two patients Cortisone tablets were given for only 10 days; the patient improved significantly from the second day of treatment and relapsed promptly after cessation of the drug.
"The third and fourth patients received tablets for longer periods, 20 and 19 days, respectively. In each of these patients there was excellent clinical effect; the arthritic conditions improved promptly."
The observations clearly indicate that Cortisone is effective when administered orally," the doctors said. "This knowledge is indeed gratifying, especially in anticipation of practical therapy, for in patients with a chronic illness, such as rheumatoid arthritis, prolonged use of any drug should be facilitated by an effective oral preparation."

The first two days of the meeting will consist of technical discussions. Nixon will participate in this program with a review of the salt industry in Kansas.
The remaining days of the meeting will be spent on a field trip to the area near the Arbuckle mountains in southern Oklahoma, where the group will visit mineral deposits and operations. Nixon said he would look for new methods of production which might be applicable to industries in Kansas.

Snack Bar in Carnegie Library University of Maine Orono, Maine
THE MAINE CAMPUS
In Orono, Maine, a favorite gathering spot of students at the University of Maine is the Snack Bar in Carnegie Library because it is a cheerful place—full of friendly collegiate atmosphere. And when the gang gathers around, ice-cold Coca-Cola gets the call. For here, as in college haunts everywhere—Coke belongs.
Ask for it either way... both trade-marks mean the same thing.
