One-Legged War Hero
Makes Good as a Diver
(AP Newsfeatures)
Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 21 One might think things have been
rather rough for ex-Marine Fignter mot sam wgm ever since
that fantastic June day seven years ago when a Jap Zero de
liberately cut off one of his feet as he was parachuting down.
At that time, the Marines rated him as one of the real heroes
of World War II. But the glory
didn t amount to much when the
big show was over.
Logan went broke trying to
run a charter air service in Los
Angeles after the war.
.
Today, he figures he has solv
ed forevermore the dilemma of
maimed war veterans whose
lives to them seem hopeless.
Simply, his philosophy Is:
,
"Don't let anyone tell yon
you can't do something just
because you're nicked a little.
Keep practicing. Quit coddl
ing yourself, and - you'll be
better than the average guy."
Logan, a native of Faola, Kan.,
is a well-built, good looking
man of 20 who has taken up
deep-sea diving and is making
a go of It.
He works for his two broth
ers who operate a diving and
salvage business here. Every
few days he dons a heavy brass
helmet and plummets to the
depths of the St. John River and
the Atlantic Ocean, wearing a
plastic waterproof leg he made
himself. He's believed to be the
only one-legged diver anywhere.

Letters Going
To Congress
Many letters are going from
this community to fne Oregon
delegation in congress urging
their support for senate bill 57,
according to Lawrence Oster
man, chairman of the congres
sional action committee of the
Atlantic Charter committee for
Oregon.
The bill would request the
president to invite f.e demo
cracies that sponsor the Nortn
Atlantic treaty to name dele
gates to a federal convention for
the purpose of exploring possi
bilities of federal union.
The letters going out from
here are not form letters, Oster

said. "We want them to repre
sent the actual feelings of the
people who write them."
