Rockhound
Corner
By BETTY WAGNER
September and again the
rock hounds assembled to be
gin a new season of monthly
get-togethers. Following a short
business meeting, the lights
were turned out and into the
world of gems we tumbled.
The set of slides shown that
night were extraordinary. There
were many crosses made of sil
ver and precious opal by Tolson
Rardoff of Michigan. A replica
of Aaron's Breastplate measuring
nine by nine inches showing the
shoulder stones and each of the
stones representing the 12 tribes
of Israel and the Urim and
Thummin was viewed. This is a
masterpiece and of special in
terest to Bible scholars. The stone
representing each tribe was set
in a small rectangular piece of
silver engraved with the tribal
symbols.
In the Kraft Chapel of the
North Shore Baptist Church of
Chicago is a beautiful jade win
dow donated in 1952 by J. K.
Kraft of the Kraft Cheese Co.
This window, standing 6Vi feet
high and 3Vi feet wide is made
entirely of American jade cut
and polished to about one-half
the thickness of regular stained
glass. Colored slides revealed
some of the beauty of the twenty
subtly blended tones of green,
white, brown, and a rare rose
jade used in the 228 leaded
panes.
The Crown of the Andes, com
pleted in 1599, with its principle
jewel, the famous 45 carat Ata
huala Emerald was breath
taking to see even on a screen!
This crown required 6 years and
the skills of 24 expert gold
smiths and Spanish lapidarists to
complete.
At West Bend, Iowa, is the
famous Grotto of Redemption. It
is a tremendously complex dis
play of aisleways, small grottos,
stairways and statuary made of
precious and semi-precious gem
stones, crystals, and polished
slabs of petrified .wood. The
statuary is life-size and made of
famous Appinncs White Marble
imported from Italy. The
Beatitudes, inlaid in Venetian
Mosaics and gold leaf tiles from
Italy, occupied a conspicuous
place on one of the grotto walls.
It pays to advertise In the
Gazette-Times.

With Name Imprinted or Plain
Irrigon Soldier
Collects Uniforms
IRRIGON Sgt. Donald Tusten,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Walt Agee,
recently was given recognition
for his $2,000,000 collection of
German uniforms and equip
ment. The following article ap
peared in "The Stars and Stripes"
of October 3:
"KITZINGEN, Germany (Spec
ial) Three soldiers dressed in
communist East Germany army
uniforms stood before men of the
U. S. Army's 1st Tank Bn. 64th
Armor, 3rd Inf. Div.
'The quick identification of an
enemy uniform can save your
life," said the soldier in the
German officer's uniform, "and
it may well decide the outcome
of the battle."
The man was not an East
German army officer, although
he did own the uniform. He also
owned the uniforms of the two
other soldiers. Sgt. Donald Tus
ten, Co. B, 1st Tank Bn. 64th
Armor, is training NCO of the
battalion. The uniforms were
part of his $2,000.00 collection
of German uniforms and equip
ment he was displaying for nis
company.
"The East German uniforms
are made in three colors," Trus
ten explained. "They are the
same as the Nazi uniforms of
World War II, except that the
Iron Cross and swastika have
been removed. They are brown,
worn by the border troops;
green, representing the security
police, and grey, the officer uni
form. Assisting the sergeant were
Pvt. Gilbert Flores, dressed in
a marine uniform, and Pfc. Da
vid Webb, who portrayed an East
German Infantry soldier. Both
were members of Co. B.
The Russian and Czechoslo
vakian governments, Tusten ex
plained, are main sources of sup
ply for East Germany's uni
forms and equipment.
With the advent of several
East German border patrol
guards escaping into the Western
section while on duty, the ser
geant said a knowledge of their
uniforms may help the U. S.
soldier in realizing who the es
capee is.
