of his continental crusade for
Christ with appearances on the
French national radio and tele
vision networks.

vision screens later in the day.
The 37-year-old North Caro

First Meeting
Eager
Released Airmen
to Return
To Flying Duties
Honolulu, T. H. (U.R) Two
of the four Korean War pilots
released from Chinese Commu
nist prison camps said Saturday
they can hardly wait to get back
"in the wild blue yonder."
The two, Capt. Harold Fisch
er of Swea City, Iowa, and 1st
Lt. Roland Parks of Omaha, ex
pressed their desires after they
inspected a group of Hawaii Air
National Guard F-86 Sabrejets
Friday.
Holding Reunion
The two men, and ex-prisoners
Lt. Col. Edwin L. Heller of
Wynnewood, Pa., and Lt. Lyle
Cameron. Lincoln, Neb., are
holding a reunion in Honolulu
with their families, who were
flown to Hawaii by special Air
Force plane from the U. S.
The eyes of Fischer and Parks
lighted up as they arrived at the
flight line to show their parents
the planes they flew in the Kor
ean War.
A reporter pointed out to
Fischer and Parks that they
seemed eager to get back into
the air.
"Boy, you know it," Fischer
snapped.
"You damn right I am," Parks
echoed.
Uneventful Day
Aside from the inspection of
the jets, the fliers and their
families spent an uneventful day.
Th four fliers spent almost
the entire day either in dental
chairs or undergoing quizzing
by intelligence officers, who
hope to be through with their
interrogations by Sunday morn
ing. A tentative schedule arranged
Friday with the approval of the
fliers and their families called
for departing Hickam Field at
2:30 p.m. HST Monday.

Graham opens the first meet
ing of his five-day crusade in
Paris at the Palais Des Sports
tonight. An interpreter will
translate his sermons sentence-by-sentence
for the French audi
ence. This morning, Graham will
preach in the American Cath
edral (Episcopal) on the Avenue
George V. The service will be
conducted by the Very Rev.
Sturgis Lee Riddle, dean of the
cathedral.
Gets Relaxation
Graham took time off from his
preparations Saturday to get in
a round of golf. After a busy
morning with French officials
of the Evangelic Alliance, which
is backing his five-day mission
here, Graham rushed off for an
18-hole round at the famed Saint
Germain links outside of Paris.
French Protestant sources said
Graham's audience may be big
ger than he anticipates. They
said the crusade has stirred con
siderable interest and that they
expect more than the 3,000 to
4,000 persons Graham himself
said he hoped would turn out
nightly. The Palais Des Sports,
Paris' "Madison Square Gar
den," seats nearly 20,000.

included in the Air Force's origi
