LUCKY 13 - Leon Ross Moore did not believe in
superstitions. He thought nothing of them the day he
was hurt while working as a linotypist with "The
Courier Herald." It didn't occur to Moore that he was
injured at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, or the thirteenth
hour in the day. It didn't seem strange to him that he
spent thirteen months and thirteen days in the
hospital. Mr. Moore even had thirteen letters in his
name. Oh, the day he was injured was, of course,
Friday the 13th, 1938. Moore remained cheerful after
the accident and was never seen trying to avoid any
black cats.
