snd a former recruiter here.
Master Sgt James R. Van

After telling of the building
of Treasure Island, which was
started in February, 1938, the
article notes that the history

1941, when a detachment of
Marines quartered on the S.S.
Delta Queen commuted to the
island daily.
The article notes that Mar
ine Barracks, Treasure Island,
is a familiar sight to more
Marines than any other base
in the Carps and tells of the
Barracks, Parks It atso Naval
Station Security officer, and
Station Vehicle Control offic
er, as well at being listed at
having "duties In connection
with tba administration of
transient personnel at and pas
ting through the San Fran
cisco area." Parks hat a 367-
man detachment, which is
divided into nine semi-inde
pendent units.
As the article continues it
mention! and briefly tells of
the duties of some of the key
men at the Marine Barracks.
It Is in this part of the story
that Master Sgt James R. Van
Heeken, former Salem recruit
er, is mentioned. Telling of the
arrival of troops coming in
from overseas the article says:
"Arriving at t h e barracks
the troops are met by Master
Sgt. James R. Van Hekken,
chief troop handler of the sec
tion. Sgt Van Hekken and his
troop-handling crew play an
important part in the success
and are in the right place at
the right time. All troop hand
lers are NCOa who have aeen
service In Korea."
Both Cot. Parks, who prior
to hit present assignment was
the officer In charge of the
Marine's Western Recruiting
division and visited here in
that capacity, and Sgt. Van
Heeken appear in photographs
accompanying the article.

J Traffic difficulties in the
nearby Willamette University
and SUte House districts also
were discussed in a general
way, and a letter from R. H.
Baldock, state highway engin
eer, said that extending Win
ter street through Willson
Patk to Court street might re
lieve the situation, but that
it doubtless would be opposed
by the public. And City At
torney Chris Kowitx said that
extending the street through
the park would violate the or
iginal park dedication. As a
more practical solution Bal
dock mentioned widening of
12th street which has often
been suggested.
Baldock also advised the
Council that Capitol street
from -Court to Center should
continue for two-way traffic
until 12th street is widened.
i An ordinance bill was in
troduced to extend Ferry as a
one-way traffic street another
block, from Cottage to Winter.
The Council Monday night
approved a bid by the Electric
Corporation of Salem for in
stallation of traffic signals at
Pine and Broadway. The bid
was $3149. The contract will
be awarded by the State High
way Commission.
. Because of the absence of
Alderman Claud Jorgensen
the Council tabled an applica
tion of Foster and Kleiser for
ridges, who have a $90,000 in
vestment as well as other bus
iness in the district
City Engineer J. H. Davis
said he wasn't sure, but
thought there might be an en
gineering solution to the trou
ble, and he and City Manager
Franzen were directed to in
vestigate and report.
Relative to a request by
Mrs. Delia Hay den for per
mission to construct garages
on her property at 585 North
Summer, the Council bad a
letter from the State Board of
control saying It was going to
appraise the property, would
