Last Kids Night Is Held
By HELEN BOTTEL
Cave Junction The last
O'Brien Kids Night of the school
year, and possibly, the final
presentation of the monthly
event, was held Friday.
Because Principal John Grubb
will not teach at O'Brien next
year. Kids Night, which he in
stigated three years ago, will
be without a leader. It was
through the use of Grubb's
phonograph and amplifying sys
tem, as well as through his
square dance instruction that
the popular dances were able
to function.
He also ran the projection
machine and was responsible for
renting the movie films which
provided entertainment for chil
dren and parents earlier in the
evening.
Decreased enrollment has
made it necessary to drop the
fifth and sixth grade classes
from O'Brien school, and to
eliminate a principal there.

Formosa To Have
Guided Missiles
' Taipeh (U.R) The U.S. Em
bassy announced today that the
American Air Force will station
Matador guided missiles on For
mosa. The missiles are capable
of carrying atomic warheads.
A joint statement by the
United States and Nationalist
China said "This action is taken
wholly for defensive purposes of
deterring and if necessary re
pelling attack."
The statement made it clear
the Matador unit of the U.S. Air
Force is not here now. There
was no indication when it will
arrive.
The Matadors operate at a
speed of more than 650 miles
an hour and have a range of
several hundred miles enough
to reach the Chinese mainland
across the Strait of Formosa.
The statement said the United
States and Nationalist China
have agreed to the stationing of
Matedors on Formosa because
of the continued Chinese Com
munist military build-up on the
mainland opposite Formoa.
The missiles will not be given
to the Chinese Nationalists but
will be handled by U.S. Air
Force personnel. There was no
indication if nuclear warheads
were being sent here with the
Matadors.
