Salem Man Finally Finds
Owner of 'Rising Sun 9 Flag
After World War II, S. Sgt
G corse Flagg, son of the 0. .
Flaggs, 1845 Berry St., found a
"Rising Sun" flag with 50 signa
tures on it, while checking cloth
ing at the reclamation section, Ft.
Lewis. '
The sergeant, who then was a
private, and is now stationed at
Itami Air Base, Japan, with the
67th food services squadron, dur
ing those almost 12 years, has
wondered about the original owner
or the Hag.
Thinking the owner or his fam
tly, if he had been killed in the
war, might like the flag, the ser
geant discussed it with one of the
Japanese employes of the squad
ron. The Japanese contacted the
local newspapers and on Feb, 27
the story was published.
On March 4 the Yomiurl news
paper located the owner of the
"Rising Sun" flag at Ohkawa City
In Fukuoka Prefecture on the Is
land of Kyushu. He was Fujiyoshi
Miyazaki, who, when drafted into
the Japanese Army in July, 1Mb,
at the age of 18 years, had the flag
with him with 50 signatures of the
employes of the manufacturer. It
also had these words of encour
agement, Fujiyoshi Miyazaki, re
solved to secure victory at any
cost
Fujiyoshi, now Ihc operator of
a furniture store and married with
two children, will have Iho flag
mailed to him, though both he and
the sergeant have expressed the
hope that the other could travel
to where ho is so they could meet.

HOLLYWOOD (UP)-Shades of
gray hairs, but Luana Patten, the
little girl of "Song of the South,"
has followed Natalie Wood into
the ranks of the gown-up film
beauties.
Like Natalie,- Luana was a child
star who dropped out of sight for
a few years during that alt-knees-
and-clbows stage. She had starred
in Walt Disney's "Song of the
South" with Bobby Driscoll (who
recently applied for a marriage
license), "Fun and Fancy Free,
"So Dear to My Heart" and other
movies.
This season Luana made her
comeback in a Universal-Interna

Pretty Baby," and Disney brought
her back lo his studio for John

and a tiny waist. She wears her
long, blonde hair in a pony tail.
She looks like a young Kalhryn

she is one cx-movic moppet, who
does not regret having worked
during the years when other chil

Over the years Lady attracted
almost as much attention pecking
away at a horse-sized typewriter
contraption in her stall as did
her more fleet-footed relatives on
the nation's tracks.
Her mistress, Mrs. Claudia
Fonda, claimed Lady could read
minds and was clairvoyant. There
were many who were willing to
concede this while skeptics insist
ed if there was any clairvoyance
it was possessed by Mrs. Fonda
herself.
But whether it was clairvoyance
or 5 h e e r coincidence, Lady's
"answers" more than once caused
a flurry of excitement.
