Finally a discernible reason for a title change: a non-William Woolfolk story published in Wanted 44, Jan/52, was already titled "Death Row."
S.O.S. for Love, again, is a continuing department with no individual story titles. (UPDATE: darkmark confirmed the following reasoning that had made me leave LJ 15, which I haven't seen, as merely a guess when I posted.) This one isn't in the same issue, Love Journal 16, as this month's story "Shameful Love"; 16's concerns a mother, but one who high-pressures her daughter's dates about marriage. The LJ 16 letters page identifies the previous issue's S.O.S. as from a man.
