Roosevelt's Dog
Gets Preference
Oyer Service Men
Antioch, Cal., Jan. 18 ll'i
TSgt. Dave Aks today confirmed
an Antioch, Cal., sailor's story
that Col. Elliott Roosevelt's dog
was given preference over them
and another service man, as yet
unidentified, on an army cargo
plane.
Aks, an overseas veteran, ar
rived at his Riverside, Calif.,
home last night to visit his ailing
wife after considerable delay
.caused by army officers ordering
the three service men off the
'plane at Memphis, Tenn., to make
room for high priority cargo.
The sergeant's story was the
same in detail as that of seaman
Ic Leon Leroy who first revealed
the incident when he arrived at
Antioch to visit his ailing wid
owed mother. Leroy and his
mother sought seclusion today to
avoid the sudden publicity caused
by the story.
! The dog, sent by Roosevelt to
his wife, was in a Hollywood
'kennel.
Leroy revealed that his emerg
'cncy leave had been extended five
,'days to Jan. 27, making up all
but 48 hours of the time lost when
'.he was ordered off the plane at
Memphis, Tenn.
'. Mother Grieves
His mother, grieving over the
recent death of her husband, Al
'Leroy, well known police chlef,
didn't like the publicity brought
.by the Incident. "We've found
ourselves on too many news
leasts," she said. They turned the
family radio off "till It's all over."
' Leroy said that he, along with
l3gt. Aks, and an unidentified
'seabce were ordered in Memphis
to surrender three seats in the
California-bound plane. They said
the crate housing the hull mastiff
seni ny lui. nuuM-vi-n, aixunu n
of the president, to his wife,
movie actress Kaye Emerson, oc
cupied another three seats but
was stamped with a top "A" pri
ority. Aks said there were 22 aboard
the plane when it left New York,
"and when wo got to Dayton, O.,
(Patterson field) a dog was put
on as cargo." Aks said he and the
other two servicemen nau neon
traveling on "C" priorities.
Regulations Defined
Army air transport regulations
rinfinn n "A" nrinritv as one
covering cargo "required by an
emergency so acute mai pieii
dence should be given over all
other traffic ..." The same regu
lations interpret a "C" rating as
". . . . vital to the war effort but
not of an extremely urgent nat
ure." Mrs. Roosevelt said in an Inter
view at Albuquerque where she
was located aboard a train en
route to Washington for the Sat
urday inauguration of her father-in-law
that she received the dog
from her husband in England and
expressed surprise at Leroy's
story.
"I assure you my dog travels as
freight and awaits his turn," she
said.
She said the 130-pound dog,
"Blaze," was delivered to her Hol
lywood home by "an army major
in a truck" and came as a surprise
to her. She understood, she said,
that another dog had been sent
from England by air to Washing
ton. Story Confirmed
Tn Wmsliinirton. a war denart-
jnent spokesman confirmed that
on Jan. 9, in Mempms, inree
servicemen had been bumped off
an army cargo plane to make
room for 300 pounds of additional
nnrnn Thu dntr i-nm:iined aboard.
he said, but he declined to com
ment on whether the animal was
consigned to Col. and Mrs. Roose
velt.
The spokesman pointed out
that the three hitch-hiking service
men were riding on the place be
cause the army wanted to do them
"a favor." at Memphis, he said,
300 pounds had to ! removed
from the plane to make room for
high priority cargo. The dog and
Ms ci;iie didn't weigh that much,
he said, so the three men were
set down.
Sorority Plans
New Blood Trip
With the announcement today
by the Beta Sigma Phi sorority
that its second trip to the Port
land blood bank would be made on
Friday. Feb. 9, it was also reported
that 22 persons have already
signed up to donate blood for the
use of wounded fighters. A spe
cial bus, financed by the sorority,
will leave in the evening, and
reservations will be made for the
group in Portland, it was said.
The party will visit the blood
donor center on Saturday.
The sorority is using funds
raised last summer for the pur
chase of books for the t'SO serv
icemen's club to provide trans
portation for the local donors.
The sorority girls, in a letter re
ceived by Miss Evelyn Zumwalt,
was praised for their action in a
letter from Mrs. Ray Matson, di
rector of the blood donor center.
It read in part:
"I have thought of your group
ever since you were in and hoped
everything went along smoothly
for you all. I want to thank every
one for making such a long trip
to donate for the services. My
only regret Is that the boys over
seas cannot know what some of
the people here are doing for
them."
The sorority also was in receipt
of a letter and cheek, for $10.00
from the Bend Study club, signed
by Genevieve W. Horstkotte, sec-

Island Veteran
Is Bend Visitor
A veteran of 19 months service
in the south Pacific, including the
Bougainville fighting-, Staff Sgt.
Arthur L. Slate, grauuate from
Bend high school with the class
of 1941, is spending his furlough
in Bend with his father, A. H.
Slate, and other relatives. Sgt.
Slate is a nephew of Joe Slate,
Bend.
I The young marine, member of
an air force ground crew, wears
a combat ribbon bearing two
stars, and is also wearer of a unit
l citation ribbon. Sgt. Slate arrived
here last night.
The Pacific veteran recalls see
ing at least three Bend service
men overseas. Ernie Zelick and
Warren Sholes, both in the ma
rines, were visited on distant Mid
way, and in an Island port Art
ran across Alfred Curtis of the
U. S. navy. It was in July, 1943,
that the sergeant saw Zelick and
Sholes. Curtis was seen this past
October.
Like other visitors from the Pa
cific theater of war, Sgt. Slate has
little to say he would rather
talk about high school days and
that Lava Bear basketball team
of which he was a member, back
some four years ago.
ILL-FATED SURVIVOR
Peaks Island, Me. UPiThe lone
survivor of the wreck of the Hes
perus, made famous in Henry W.
Longfellow's poem, was a boy of
12. He decided to retire after the
wreck and returned to a New
Hampshire farm to live. But fate
still pursued him and he slipped
on a log while crossing a stream
some years later and was
drowned.
