Stores Had Spurned In Boro, Queens Metz, France, April 16 (U.P.) Surgeons 'battled today to save the life of a 38-year-old Italian factory worker, while police waited to charge him with mur dering a nun who spurned his love Witnesses said Paul De Masi fired two pistol bullets into Sister Denise and then shot himself. She died on the way to -a hospital. He is in a semi-coma in the hospital. A bullet ripped through his right eye and into his skull. De Masi knew the nun who was Emeillie Dolisy, a nurse, before she took her vows and became Sister Denise.

He fell violently in love with her. After she became a nun, De Masi would wait for her when she made her rounds as a charity nurse and declare his love, townspeople said. Sister Denise complained to her Sister Superior and the police were notified. They warned him to let her alone. Tuesday night, witnesses said, De Masi shot Sister Denlise when she came out of a house she was visiting.

Police found in De Masi's pockets a faked photograph which showed him standing beside Sister Denise. On the margin was written: "You are the love of life. Revenge, revenge, venge." Police said Sister Denise was photographed with a group of children. De Masi eliminated the children from the photograph, police said, enlarged it and superimposed a picture of himself on it.
