Using mostly Oregon material, Faye and Hubert Wil son had faced their new fire place with polished slabs of woods, agates, Paulina obsidian, and many other minerals. In the center just below the mantle was a small slab of brilliant orange red material, identity unknown. It did remind me very much of the more opaque varieties of slag glass that I have seen at some of the rock shows a real eye catcher on the fireplace. Because it was after dark when we met, we did not see the outside rock work, but Hubert tells me sand stone from the Shaw Creek grade was used for the exterior. So, you see, we had a very enjoyable and most interesting setting for our October meeting. The Wil sons have been working pretty steadily on their new room since late summer and have something to be very proud of. There was much business under discussion, including the possibility of a Nevada field trip, but it looks like the Nevada agates will be safe from our rock-thirsty appetites until next spring. Plans are progressing for the construction of a glass cabi net for the court house; also we hope to do a little decorating in our regular meeting place to im prove the acoustics of the build ing. A few years ago, G. N. Coch rane of Portland and the late Harold Sanders, formerly of Hep pner, found some lovely thunder eggs on a ridge overlooking the Spray highway. One of these cut and polished eggs is now a part of the permanent collection of the county museum as a tribute to the enthusiam and work put forth by Mr. Sanders in organiz ing our rock club. Mr. and Mrs. H. 0. Welch and four-month-old twins, Elizabeth and Daniel, left November 3 for their new home in Newburgh, N. Y., after a week's visit with Mrs. Welch's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Kirk. Mr. Welch was recently transferred from Santa Monica, Calif., to Stewart Air Force Base, N. Y for a two year assignment in the training com putor program for the govern ment at the base.

Thursday. November 15, 1962 Dohertys Return From Europe Trip With the objective of visiting their son, Billy, at his army base in Geissen, Germany, Mr. and Mrs. William Doherty, Lexing ton, made a two and one-half month trip to Europe recently, bringing home with them many pleasant memories. They were able to get a first-hand look at the fear expressed on faces of German people at the time the Cuban crisis broke, displaying the feeling that there would surely be effects resulting through the tense German-Russian relation. Their son was granted a 30 day leave from his service with the medical army corps in Ger many, making it possible for him to tour most of Europe with them. Most of their time was spent in Germany, Switzerland, France, and with relatives of both Mr. and Mrs. Doherty in Donegal and Longford counties, northern Ireland. They were per sonally acquainted with only one uncle before going, and was a surprise meeting with the other relatives. They traveled by car to New York, storing their car there and taking the ship "America", re turning on another liner, "United States?'
