Strange episcopal tale and other oddities in Hong Kong
An odd Hong Kong report frames Bishop Cuthbert O Gara recounting a hospital bed tale about a Canadian priest and a confused letter. The piece shifts to satirical jabs on women and a Tulsa honeymoon beating, then death and aging themes, California crash data, a New York prison mix up, a Houston report card joke, and a dentist warning about TV related malocclusion from Atlanta.

Girl Addict 15 Collapses in Montebello Police Station
A 15 year old girl, who told police she had used opium since age eight, collapsed in a Montebello police station narcotics ward after a midnight visit. She admitted four opium caps and that she obtained the drug by “pushing dope” and selling opium to others for about 825. She refused to name her supplier or the opium den location and was placed in juvenile custody as investigators pursue the narcotics case. The girl has a prior record for running away and a 1951 report notes a 1952 rape attempt she described.
