THE FT. HOOD SENTINEL Thursday October 3 1985
Off Duty
By TONY S. MOYERS
N ear fatal accid en ts and
rush es ith death always
seem to make people stop and
think.
IF A PERSON has a brush
with death he will usually stop
and think about how lucky he
is. If he has a second brush with
death he may begin thinking
how unlucky he is and if there
is a third brush the person may
just begin wondering who’s out
to get him. If he doesn’t maybe
the next time won’t be just a
brush.
All too late a Michael Malloy
found out. But actually he
fo a only one
attempt before it was too late.
alloy was a dow n-and-out
drunken Irishman who in 1933
became the victdrri of a strange
series of attempts on his life.

THE GANG TOOK out three
insurance policies on Malloy
and gave him unlimited credit
at the bar. They thought Malloy
would simply drink himself to
death. But Malloy’s liver knew
no bounds. The plan failed mis-
erably.
The next step the gang tried
was to poison Malloy. The bar-
tender Joseph Murphy was in
level will.be determined by au-
dience response. The post fin-
als will be determined by a
panel of not less than three
qualified judges in combina-

ings.

on the plot. He substituted anti-
freeze for Malloy’s whiskey.
Malloy downed the drink and
asked for more. He put away six
shots of the antifreeze before he
passed out. A few hours later
he perked up and requested
another drink.
For a week Malloy guzzled
antifreeze nonstop. Staight tur-
pentine worked no better nor
did horse liniment laced with
rat poison. Other attempts on
Malloy’s life included a meal of
rotten oysters marinated in
wood alcohol and a sandwich
which consisted of spoiled sar-
dines mixed with carpet tacks.
On each occasion he asked for
more.
THE GANG’S NEXT tactic
was to dump the drunk into a
bank of wet snow and pour wa-
ter all over him. That night the

Casey Memorial Library is a
source of information where re-
search materials are readily at
hand to answer any ques-
tions. Below are some of the
questions received recently the
library staff.
Q: My teacher says there are
six hemispheres of the earth. I
say there are only four. Who is
right?
A: Your teacher is correct.
The earth is divided into the
northern and southern hemis-
pheres with the equator serv-
ing as the boundary line. Using
longitudinal lines as a bound-
a ry ate a te rn
Hemispheres are formed. While
this boundary has not been offi-
cially established geographers
use 20 degrees west longitude
and 160 degrees east longitude
as th ir div id in line. The
A ericas lie in the western
hemisphere and Europe Afri-
ca Asia and Australia lie in the
eastern hemisphere.
In ad itio to these four
hemispheres there are the land
and water hemispheres. These
tw hemispheres divide the
earth into the half ith the
largest amount of land mass
and the half with the most wa-
ter. The land hemisphere is cen-
te re a ro don E n-
gland the water Hemisphere is
centered near New Zealand.

lawns?
A: Prior to the days of the
lawnmower the lovely lawns of
the English aristocrats were
manicured by groups of gar-
