Back stairs at the rural White House: 5! Gettysburg has welcomed its jiiost famous citizen with honors fcefitting his high office. Presi dent Eisenhower has been made an honorary member of the Bar low Volunteer Fire company, Vhich serves the township of Cumberland, Pa., in which the President's farm is actually lo cated. Several months ago, the Gettysburg Junior Chamber of Commerce made him ah honor nry member. First to honor him was the Gettysburg Country club with an honorary, membership. He takes advantage of that honor more than any other. federate army formed its lines. Gettysburg historians say the Eisenhower fields were overrun by Confederate General James Longstreefs troops standing ready behind the battle line from which the charge was launched to the east. The Eisenhowers' 150-year-old farmhouse presum ably was used as an emergency hospital. The Eisenhower farm is on the rdge of the Gettysburg battle field, as the news reports say. But the presidential acres also ere the scene of plenty of activ ely during the fateful days in 1863. The farmland lies about ' mile west of where the Con- Gettysburg is a retiring place. The visiting minister at the Pres ident's church last Sunday a former Gettysbirrgian himself began his sermon with an announcement that he and his wife had decided some years ago to come back to Gettysburg to live when he retired "and it seems we made a good cnoice. The President, who is also planning to retire to Gettysburg chuckled with the rest of the congregation. No hint from eith er man as to when each would retire. The tourists skip the Gettys burg battlefield scene when they hear the President is on view. A dozen travelling California schoolboys went to church to see him last Sunday, after they had already been to Sunday school. Outside the packed church sev eral hundred more tourists and local citizens waited in the hot sun for a glimpse of Mr. Eisen hower, and many for a snapshot to be treasured in years to come. A disappointed Southerner's camera jammed at the crucial moment. "I'm the kind of guy whose car would stall in the middle of a desert," he moaned. The road from Washington to Gettysburg has several remind ers of the presidents who have travelled it. As it passes through Thurmont, Md., there is a "Shangri-La motel." "Shangri La" was Franklin D. Roosevelt's name for the presidential moun tain retreat. It is now called "Camp David" in honor of Presi dent Eisenhower's grandson. There is also an "Ike's Inn. Around Hollywood ly ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Editor's Note: Aline Mosby is on va cation. Al and Elma Milotte. the famed husband-wife camera team who photo graphed wild life for Walt Disney films, tell about their adventures. By Al and ELMA MILOTTE Written for the United Press Hollywood (U.R) It's quite an education to see animal cre ation in operation. Our latest lesson was in Equa torial Africa where for almost three years we photographed birds, beasts and reptiles of the Kenya and Tanganyika wilds for Walt Disney's new true-life ad venture, "The African Lion." During that time we lived al most literaiiy in the lion's den, watching the king of beasts and his queen in every act and mood of courtship, hunt, battle and play. There's no great trick about protographing wild animals. You just get as close as you can with out disturbing them and start your camera. Of course you've got to know where and when to find them. For Walt Disney's films no human must ever be seen and the animals must not know they are being observed. Several times we got too close to lions for comfort, and once dangerously close to a bull rhino. When we tried to play good Sa maritan to this mud-trapped fel low he resented being rescued and almost got Al. 4 The most trying thing about our profession is the wear on the nerves from the constant vigi- Bank Cashier Held For Embezzlement New York (U.R) A 26-year-old bank cashier was held in $10,000 bail today for embezzling $26,000 which he lost betting oh the horses. William Gravius, who told federal authorities earlier this week that $26,000 he put on the floor of the bank vault disap peared, confessed ; Wednesday that he began betting the bank's money to cover a $20,000 short age which he discovered in the bank's books. The original shortage was a mystery to. him, Gravius said, though he now' believes it might have been just a bookkeeping error. lance for interesting and signifi cant incidents. During our time in the African wilds there was scarcely a daylight hour when one of us wasn't standing watch beside the cameras for some re vealing act in the life and death drama always going on around us. Nature hides her mysteries with jealous care. The lion, be cause he fears nothing, is the most open in his home and fami ly life. And he's also the most af fectionate of all the great beasts. The most ferocious exhibition of jealousy we ever saw occurred in a group of adult lions. A rov ing young female attempted to win the attentions of a leonine shah away from his established harem mates. She was a strang er. They turned on her in a flash and literally tore her .to pieces in outraged defense of their do mestic properieties. On the other hand, we never saw a greater display of mater nal affection than that lavished on their children by African lio nesses. If ever babies of the wild are spoiled, these cubs are. But no trace of juvenile delinquency is tolerated. For even the sons of the king of beasts may die if the stern law of existence are flouted. Third Polio Shot Schedule Outlined Jackson county first and sec ond graders ' who received the first two Salk anti-polio vaccine shots will receive third shots from family physicians about seven months from now. A total of 1,355 received sec ond shots recently, compared to 1,415 who got first inoculations. Of the 60 who did not get second shots by Jackson county health department officials, about half moved to other areas and were given forms for second shots. The 1,415 who received first inoculations is out of a possible 3.006, the total number of first and second graders in Jackson county. A little more than 2,800 registered for shots. Children who received both shots received letters and certifi cates which parents must submit to their family physician for the third shot.
