Carol Hynd Home;
Goes to New Post
Carol Hynd of the WAC ar
rived home last Wednesday
night for a visit with her par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Herb Hynd
of Cecil, on a delay en route to
a new assignment at Fort Leav
enworth, Kansas, which will be
her permanent duty station. She
has been at Fort Ord, Calif.
She left for the new assign
ment Tuesday. At Fort Leaven
worth she will be assisting in
surgery after completing her
training as a medical technician.
Carol, who has become an ar
dent parachute jumper since
she joined the WAC last year,
said that she had a real scare
recently on a jump when one
of the shroud lines of her main
chute caught over the top of
the chute, creating a "Mae
West." When she pulled the rip
cord of the reserve chute, it
opened under the main chute
and she descended at a much
faster speed than normal. She
took quite a bump when she hit
the ground but came out of i
unhurt.
Carol said that she plans to
go up for another jump soon to
convince herself that she hasn't
lost her nerve and h opes to con
tinue the hobby in Kansas.

By BETTY WAGNER
It's been quite a while since
my last visit with vou, so will
have to bring you up to date
on all the activities of the rock
club. First of all, we now have
a showcase full of rocks on dis
play at the court house. We hope
to change this display once each
month, so better make a quick
trip up to see the May selec
tions soon.
At the Februarv meeting a re
port on crystals was given by
Rachel Harnett which tied in
with the film "Around the World
in Calcite." Ed and Eleanor
Gontv hosted the club to a de
licious dessert following the
film.
On March 23 our program
chairman showed slides of the
Priday Ranch near Madras. This
is an area of 17,500 acres with
several different beds of all
types of agates. It is famous for
its plume agates. Walter Edger
discussed the characteristics of
agates and the theories on how
they are formed. An invitation
to .loin a Portland geology club
at Opal Butte in June was read.
This would certainly make for
an interestine field trip: Re
freshments were served by Rach
el Harnett and Ellen Moore with
our ieweler (guess who) walk
ing off with the door prize, a
tumble-Dolished agate on a
chain.
Early in April several of our
club members met with the
Pendleton Rock club to view a
demonstration prese n t e d by
Marvin E. Carr of Fiberiay, inc.
Mr. Carr showed how to use a
new resin with the rock slabs
and pieces for making table
tops, pictures, planters, trivets,
etc.
Rock shows will be in abun
dance over tho northwest dur
ing the summer months and the
Prineville Pow-Wow held during
the first few days of July is
highly recommended especially
for the wonderful field trips
sponsored by the Prineville Rock
club.
For the April meeting each
member brought a specimen of
petrified or agatized wood and
mentioned the locality where
found. The film "100 Miles of
Agate on Oregon Coast" was
shown followed bv refreshments
served by George and Ruby Mil
ler.
Saturday night, May 25, we
meet again at the City Hall an
nex. Hope to see you there at
8:00 p.m.
