Cushing, administrator of the Boston diocese, declared yesterday at graduation exercises of the Carney Hospital in South Bcston High School, where 54 nurses were graduated.

"Long after soldiers have forgotten entertainers and have come to blush at their devotion to pinup girls, they will remember the nurses who wrote and read letters for them," Bishop Cushing said. Commenting on the vocation of the nurse. Bishop Cushing said that more nurses entered the religious life than any other profession. "Nursing." he continued, "is a service that brings comfort to the sick, strength to the convalescent and hope to the dying. "Right now on many battlefields of the war nurses are not robed in white.

They are in khaki, in slacks, in dungarees. White slippers have given away to heavy boots, mud-stained and clumsy. Nurses are not glamorous, for their profession is not glamorous. There is nothing glamorous in a hospital just behind the lines when the wounded come pouring in; nothing glamorous in the long night's watch; in the wash 1 7 i '''t Margaret Tero Mary Cantv real name.

Collins of Norwood, formerly division surseoii of the famed Americal Division. Col Collins recently returned from the Southwest Pacific and is attached to Lovell General North Hospital.

Wounded soldiers from all fighting fronts have sung the praises of the medics for their dauntless courage in facing enemy fire to succor the wounded, and Col Collins agrees with them. "I have been in intimate contact with the medical service and I have seen countless instances of bravery performed by the medic corpsmcn," he said; "so many, in fact, that I would not select one above the others." He admitted, under questioning, that he had had "a few close shaves myself" during the fighting on Guadalcanal and Bougainville. The medical corpsmen now are more highly trained than ever before, Collins said, and have the benefit of newly-discovered drugs, such rs the sulfa drugs and penicillin, which help reduce battle mortalities.

Nobody knows the fate -of these people, although many suspect they all have been shot. Time for a Showdown Disabled veterans, he claimed, are foregoing needed treatment because of the extra traveling necessary to reach the hospital and the delays caused by the shortage of experienced help at the facility. Commander Frascotti believes it is time for a showdown.

He contends that while many cities and towns are preparing for victory celebrations when hostilities cease, the Boston oflice of the Veterans' Bureau is not prepared for the steady influx of returning disabled veterans due to inadequate personnel and disorganized Boston regional office.
