Convention Trip
At Rotary Meet
An account of the trip taken
by four Roseburg Junior chamber
of commerce members to their
national convention in Chicago
was presented Rotarians Thursday
by Irv Pugh, principal speaker
at tne regular notary luncheon
meeting.
Pugh said the Oregon state dis
play presented in the states' ex
hibition hall proved to be one of
tne most popular at the conven
tion, held June 14-17. Colored
movies, free samples of Oreeon
products and the brightly-garbed
Oregon delegates drew consider
able attention to the display. He
said the Oregon exhibit received
more than its share of attention,
due in part to the bathing suit-clad
girl models sponsored by the Jant
zen Kitting mills of Portland.
Humorous sidelights on attempts
to exhibit a douglas fir log in the
parade of states was also told by
Pugh. Denied permission to cross
all but one bridge with the 32,500
pound log, Roseburg Jaycees
drove early to the parade route
and parked the truck on one of
cnicagos busiest intersections
Pugh said an estimated 150.000
persons examined the log, furn
ished for the event by the Rose
burg Lumber company. He said
jaycees were aoie. with some oil
ficulty, to convince sight-seers
that the log was real but could
not convince midwesterners that
the 34-foot section was merely one
oi lour cut irom the same log.
Rotary President Walter Mall
ory completed the program with
a report on impressions gathered
while attending the district Rotary
meeting at Vancouver, wash.

America's Top Veteran Combat Dog
Retired By Old Age, Combat Fatigue
By HAL BOYLE
. e a, nnv
n nun j. o. ma r u"o
BASE IN KOREA (JP) Leaves
from a war reporter's notebook:
Moe, America's most veteran
combat dog, has been retired from
the air wars by old age and battle
fatigue.
The peppery little black and
white mongrel has spent six years
with the air force. He was first
picked up in Australia by Lt. Jack
Coghlan of Longview, Texas, and
later flew 25 combat missions in the
Second World War standing in the
catwalk of a Doulas Havoc bomb
er., In the years since then Moe has
lived on practically every air base
in the Pacific and had half a dozen
or more owners. He. is known by
name to hundreds of airmen in the
Far East. Since coming to Korea
his duties have been strictly limited
to ground observation and security
patrols.
"He won't make any more mis
sions," said his present owner, Sgt.
Daniel Kinney, San Francisco.
"He's really got combat fatigue
he shakes all over now every time
he goes up in a plane."
But Moe doesn't like war on the
ground much better. The soldiers
sometimes tease him by pointing
their carbines at him. bach time
Moe barks worriedly until the gun
is put away.
- Moe wears Sgt. Kinney's" dog
tags and there is a deep and real
attachment between them. At the
sergeant's command Moe will sit
up, roll over, shake hands, speak cr
retrieve anything from a rock to a
baseball bat.
His greatest enemy is a tattered
stuffed monkey that hangs from a
wall and bears the sign "Special
ists on Gorilla Warfare." For some
reason Moe developed a frantic
hate for the silent monkey leering
down at him. Several times a day
he comes into the office just to bark
at it.
"But if that monkey ever came
untied and fell on him." Grinned
Kinney, "old Moe probably wouls
n't quit running until he reached
Japan."
The Korean war has upset the
plans of many people. But 1 think
Col. Richard Whitson of Rockport,
III., had the most unusual objec
tion to it.
Sitting in a tent and looking out
across a rainswept field at some
T-6 air control planes he helps
service, Whitson said dryly:
"I am supposed to get discharged
next week. And this darn war has
us so busy I can't even get a three
day pass to go to Japan and Reen
list". A Mustang pilot dived so low at
an enemy tank the other day that
a huge fragment of a rocket he hit
the tank with rebounded and lodged
in his own gas tank.
The slender dark-haired flyer.
down to his last drop of fuel, made
a perfect emergency landing herp
Climbing out he took one look at the
damaged tank and said cooly
Y I -SEW-GEM SU2IE' I

."That's all for this ship" Then he
strolled away lo hitchhike a ride
i hack lo his own Dase.
Staff Sgt. Michael Sparks, St.
Louis, whistled in surprise as he
inspected the plane,
it s a real miracle, ne sa.rj,
'Six inches one way and we would
have lost a wheel. Six inches the
other way and he would have had it
in his lap."
Capt. Hal Wilson Lanmark, a pub
lie information officer, dislodged
the rocket fragment. It weighed .
25 pounds.
They aren t supposed to dive De-
low 500 feet," he said. "But that
pilot must have been down to 50 ft.
when he caught that one.
