Special Dispatch to The Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 22— Fearlessly thrusting his right arm into the path of a wild boar as he attempted to escape Into the packed tent, Doc Brenan, veteran lecturer of the freaks of a show on 'North Washington street, last night suffered severe lacerations and for a while was at the mercy of the ferocious hog’s three-inch tusks. Brenan was rushed to the Alexandria Hospital. More than « hundred women and children were in the tent when the animal went on a rampage as the lecturer opened the cage door to handle the “pet” With an ugly snarl the animal rushed for the door. - Brenan, realizing the danger, thrust his arm in the path of the animal and, as calmly as possibie, summoned aid. The bog was subdued finally by Charley Docen, its tamer, but not before Brenan's arm had been badly wounded. At the hospital this morning it was said that ral of the wounds in the man’s arm were of a dangerous nature. The largest laceration extended the entire length of the forearm and was more thin an inch deep in places. Plans for the opening of the bi- ennial convention of the League of American Pen Women tomorrow, at the Shoreham, have been whipped into shape, it was announced today. Revislons in the program were an- nounced by Mrs. Dorothy De Muth Watson, chairman of the composers’ group, and by Miss Laura Thornbor- ough, chairman of the national motion pictures committee of the league. Mrs. Watson anounced that Lucien Marsh, who was to appear tomorrow in the lounge of the Shoreham Hotel, has been called from the city, due to seri- ous illness in his family, and John Marville will take his place on the program. Mrs Thornborough an- nounced that Mrs., Florence Strauss and Mrs. Toombs, respectively of As- soclated First National Pictures and of the Universal Pictures Corporation, will be speakers at the motion pic- ture conference in the ballroom of the Shoreham tomorruw afternoon.

Sterling Morton, founder of Arbor day, which will be observed throughout the United States are ob- serving this date by planting trees, &ays a statement today from the Ameri- can Tree Association. Morton started Arbor day in 1372. Mrs. Mary K. Sherman of the Gen- eral Federation of Women's Clubs wurned over to the association a re- quest for trce-planting suggestions from Mrs. Glen Kirkham of the Douglas Island Women's Club of Douglas, Alaska. This the far- therest point to which the associa- tion has sent tree-planting instruo- tion. The slogan of the American | Tree Association is to celobrate the | centennial of Arbor day in 1972 by planting trees now.

There are two reasons: (1) Every time we make a loan of this - character we receive a small com- mission for negotiating it. There- fore, (2) every time we sell one of the notes we have purchased, we can immediately re-loan the money to people who desire to borrow on the same kind of high- class securities.
