Dreamed Ma
III; 'Hiked
3000 Miles
TACOMA, March 2 -Clif
ton J. Cook, 24-year-old Tacoma
soldier, is in the Fort Lewis hos
pital today after an amazing hitch
hike journey over two-thirds of
the nation made because of
dream.
Cook, in a high fever and nearly
delirious, was arrested Friday af
ternoon at his home as an army
deserter by Detectives George Bur
geson and Peter McDahL He was
posted as a deserter when he failed
to return to his post at Fort Law
ton within reasonable time after
being AWOL. Removed to the city
jail, he told a strange story.
"I had a dream. he told of
ficers, "at Fort Lawton one night
about March first. In that dream
I saw that all was net well with
my mother in Louisiana. I had
no business leaving my doty,
but I couldn't stand It when my
dream told me te ge see my
mother.
"I left Fort Lawton with only
54 cents so I had to hitch hike.
The going was tough as now days
cars don't go very far la one
Jump. The longest ride I had
during my whole trip was from
Portland te Tacoma on the re
tarn trip.
"I ate here and there when
people gave me food. I weighed
164 pounds when I left. (Police
said Cook weighed 115 pounds
when he was arrested.)
"I kept plugging along, most
of the time having no idea where
I was going, but I got to my
destination. I saw my mother for
only a few minutes. She was
sick in a sanitarium. She did
n't know me. So I turned around
and started back."
Shortly after Cook told his
story he became delirious and was
removed to the Fort Lewis hospi
tal. Cook's hitch hike trip to Lou
isiana and return, by way of Cal
ifornia, about 3000 miles each way,
was completed in 19 days.
