He was frost-bitten after being slightly wounded in the fighting around Chosin reservoir Nov. 27. Before he was carried from his plane, Smith sent word to photographers and reporters that he is not “yet” ready for them. Didn't Talk Nearly a dozen news photographers gathered at the airport refrained from snapping photographs as his blanket-wrapped stretcher was lifted from the plane to an ambulance. Capt. Eleanor A.

ROBERT SMITH "A great surprise" Mrs. Katherine McCubbins, 4463 Louisville Ave., Louisville, Ky., says she feels terribly sorry and wants to extend lots of sympathy to thousands of folks all over the country bothered with nagging aches and pains due to a deficiency of Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron. Mrs. McCubbins says she knows how they feel because it wasn't too long ago that Mrs. McCubbins was just beside herself in knowing what to do about such misery. However, Mrs. McCubbins found out she had a deficiency of Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron and started taking HADACOL. Here is Mrs. McCubbins' own statement: "My nerves were so bad the least little thing would completely upset me. I was very thin too, my husband says I was a walking shadow.

The other was PFC Wilburn Boggs of Pound, Va., wounded in the left thigh. Smith is the only quadruple amputee reported thus far in the Korean fighting. There were two in World War II. One of these, James W. (Jimmy) Wilson, said yesterday at Boulder, Colo., that he planned to contact Smith and talk with him. "From my own experience, I know that encouragement from persons with similar injuries is best morale builder possible," Wilson said. Now a student at the University of Colorado law school, Wilson also was a victim of freezing cold that forced amputation of all four limbs. His home is at Stark, Fla.

Police Think Stone of Scone May Be at Bottom of River Crouch LONDON (AP)—Rural police 40 miles from London said today they believed the venerable Stone of Scone, stolen from Westminster Abbey, had been unceremoniously dumped into the River Crouch under cover of night. A spokesman at Essex police headquarters in Chelmsford reported a group of persons was seen dumping a "heavy bundle" into the river from a small boat. Scour River Foot patrolmen and radio cars quickly prowled five miles of the river bank, while other police looked for the hallowed block of yellow sandstone, heavy in weight and tradition, in small boats along the stream. They found no trace of the rocce on which British kings have sat for crowning since Edward I looted the slab from Scotland in 1296. This ancient grievance still ranksles in the breasts of fiery Scottish nationalists, who think the stone should be restored to Scotland. Have Reason Extremists among their number are generally suspected with carting off the stone during the early hours Christmas morning from the coronation chair in the depth of the hallowed abbey. A police spokesman said after the fruitless search that authorities had "reason to suspect" the bundle heaved into the Crouch was the Stone of Scone. "All precautions are being taken," he added, to assure that only police fish the stone from the river, if it's there.
