Killing 2 Occupants
j MOUNT VERNON (AP) - A
Great Northern passenger train

end crossing Friday afternoon
killing the two occupants of the
vehicle.
The victims were Mount Vernon
pharmacist O.W. Wasell, 67, and
Isadora E. Taylor, 48, also of
Mount Vernon.
Wasell apparently was blinded
by the late afternoon sun and did
not see the flashing lights that

Don Landreth said.
Officers said Wasell was thrown

eight-car southbound train hit.
Mrs. Taylor was . trapped inside

Awaited To Move
Moore House
I Further developments in the Lil-
lie Moore house-moving case are
expected within a few days.
An official of llobson House Mov
ing, Inc., will confer with Oregon
Stale Highway department officials
on Monday, according to Mrs. V.
J. Micelli, president of the Doug
las County Historical Society.
The house must travel on the
freeway for some distance no mat
ter what method of moving is em
ployed. In such instances the high
way department checks with the
Oregon Historical Society to de
termine the authenticity of such a
property as a historical landmark
and not a mere commercial ven
ture, according to Mrs. Micelli.
Thomas Vaughn, head of the
Portland contracting firm has a
major moving venture elsewhere
in Oregon coming up immediately,
and so must transport the Moore
home quickly. She thus expects the
actual moving to take place short
ly after highway department clear
and is obtained.
The Douglas County Historical
Society is holding a full-scale mem
bership meeting at the Legion Hall
at 2 p.m. Sunday.

But the four-year war they
fought in EOKA, the Greek Cy

from Britain was tough and ruth

attributed to EOKA. Wore than
half the victims were Greek Cy

EOKA did not win Enosis. But
on the advice of its leadership it

Woman Tending Grave
Killed By Tombstone
BAD KISSINGEN, Germany
(AP) A 56 - year - old German
housewife was killed by a tomb
stone falling from her brother's
grave. Police said Mrs. Charlotte
Christoph was tending the grave
when the large stone toppled over.
They said the stone probably had
been loosened by rain and thrown
off Us base by a gust ot wina.
'Looking back on it." a British
intelligence official mused after
Grivas called off the battle early
this week, "he was ruthless, ab
solutely fearless, and a good or
ganizer to the nth degree. In fact,
he was the sort of chap you would
want on your side if you had to
do me same tiling.
Lands On Cyprus
Grivas was 56 when he landed
from Rhodes on the west coast of
Cyprus the night of Nov. 9, 1954.
Retired from the army in 1944. he
had led a fanatically right-wing
band in Greece after the war and
gotten a name for hardness and
efficiency.
He was called to Cyprus to or
ganize a militant force to support
Archbishop Makarios of the Greek
Orthodox Church in his campaign
for Enosis.
He immediately began to search
for potential leaders in the Cyprus
youth movement, discarding as he
went along those with inadequate
hardness or zeal, By the time his
campaign opened, on April 1, 1955
he had around him a hand of tough
young men forming EOKA's inner
core, and a second echeion ot
couriers, paymasters, quarter
masters, recruiters and informants.
In the yeara that followed.
C.UKA had successes and some
near disasters. By mid-1956, Brit
ish intelligence was beginning to
oreaK through.
Even so, 1956 was the year that
Field Marshal Lord Harding, the
British commander In rhief here
awoke one morning to find a time
Domo in ms Den.
Truce Negotiated
In March 1957, when EOKA ap
peared to be near defeat, with
many of its top men dead or cap
tured, Britain accepted a truce
But essentially, EOKA survived
because it won almost complete
support from the island's 400,000
Greek Cypriots, and because of its
excellent organization and deadly
discipline.
"We are aU EOKA," the Greek
Cypriot mayor of Nicosia once pro
claimed.
On hundreds of occasions British
troops would rush within minutes
to Uie scene of a killing, only to
find that the killers had vanished,
furnished with escape routes by
the populace. In the mountains
peasants fed EOKA men and hid
the in.
Grivas broke his organization
down into mountain gangs, village
shotgun groups and two killer
squads which worked on order for
specific targets, squads waiting
for "targets of opportunity,"
couriers, leaflet distributors, pro
pagandists and the like. Arms were
smuggled in from the Greek main
land or stolen from British depots
on the island. Lxplosives were I
stolen from mines. 1
Part-Time Rebels
Except for the mountain men i
who directed the warfare and ear-i
ried out ambushes, it was a part-1
time organization. A villager might :
perform an EOKA mission one day ;
and go back to his crops the next. ;
Students were used extensively. ;
Practically every schoolboy be
tween the ages of 12 and IT was
active one way or another.
Communications were surpris
ingly good, lip to five couriers 1
would carry one message and
the messages got through, lo ar
range a truce, the British in Nico
sia could get a letter to Grivas
within three hours. Truces were
called four times and their effect
always was instantaneous through
out the island.
Grivas had some talented and
tough lieutenants lo help make the
organization work. They were not
hoodlums all had respectable
and some had brilliant scholastic
records.
Grivas himself was a stern and
intensely suspicious disciplinarian.
He allowed no gambling or amor
ous adventures in his group. He
has not yet emerged in public. He
probably will go to Greece for the
future.
But on March 9. IS days after
the independence agreement was
signed in London, EOKA leaflets,
spread as mysteriously and swift
ly as ever, told Greek Cypriots
Dighenis was ordering the strug
gle to end. He called on them to
work in peace for the new re
public. That morning, Nicosia burst out
in celebration ofi relief and joy.
The London agreement, to which
Greek Cypriots were lukewarm.
had been signed. Archbishop Ma
karios had come back from exile.
But it really hadn't been over
not until their hero, Dighenis, laid
so.
Elk Herd Invades
Pasture Of Home
On Little River
Fourteen elk can present a prob
lem when they find a home in your
pasture, the Ellis Watsons of Little
River Rd. above Glide learned Fri
day. the elk showed up Friday after
noon and Mrs. Watson notified the
sheriff's ofiice that they were pres
ent. She telephoned again this
morning and a game officer was
slated to visit the Watson home
today to look over the situation.
The herd includes two young,
Mrs. Watson told the News-Review
today. The elk don't have a bit of
respect for a person or' dog but
they will run from a car, she not
ed. The herd first appeared about
three or four days ago, she said.
Until Friday the herd stayed on
the opposite hank of Little River
"looking us over."
The Watsons are concerned. They
have stock of their own, cows and
horses, and also possess a field of
grain that is coming up fast.
The elk clear fences without trou
ble although some times they take
the top strand of wire with rhem
when they hurdle the barrier. This .
is harder on the fencing than on
the elk, Mrs. Watson said. She 1
observed the game visitors were
"in excellent shape."
Located 14 miles above Glide, the
Watsons occupy the last ranch on
Little River Rd.
