place of galloping horses, is be
ing enacted over the highways
rom Memphis, Tcnn to Scattl

The unique project, initiated
by the Anchorage, Alaska, Lions
club, is tied in with the mem
bership of approximately 70 Lions
clubs in eight states en route to
Alaska.
The Anchorage club recently
purchased the ambulance and in

hicle cross country. Relays of
drivers from the 70 Lions clubs
en route will be provided by the
memberships. Appropriate cere
monies will be held at each relay
point, including the signing of
a "log" by the pilots.
E. Burr Miller, Downtown
Lions club chairman for the
event, has not been informed as
to when the ambulance will reach
Salem. The vehicle left Memphis
April 2 over a route that will
cover Arkansas, Oklahoma. Tex
as. New Mexico, Arizona, Califor
nia, Oregon and Washington.
