Reunion Held
In Gold Hill;
Family Leaves
Gold Hill A family re
union was held at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Kofahl,
Pacific Highway 99 north,
Gold Hill, recently when
their son, Col. Harold E. Ko
fahl of the United States Air
Force accompanied by his
wife and their four young
sters, Kristen, Robert and
twin sons, Pat and Mike vis
ited here. They were en route
to his new assignment as air
liaison officer, American Con
sulate in Hong Kong. The Ko
fahl's daughter, Mrs. J. H.
McMasters, came from her
home in Menlo Park, Calif:,
for the reunion.
The colonel and his family
.sailed on the American Presi
dent line, President Hoover,
Wednesday March 28, and
will stop over at Yokohama
and Manila.
Colonel Kofahl has served
the past three years as deputy
chief of staff for personnel at
Washington D.C. Before leav
i n g Washington he was
awarded an oak leaf cluster
to his commendation ribbon
for the work he did while sta
tioned there.
Previous to his Washington
assignment he - served a tour
of duty with the military ad
visory group in Saigon, Indo
china. His military career has
included service as wing com
mander for three different air
bases, Moses Lake Air Force
base, Washington; Vance
AFB, Enid, Okla; and Moody
Air Force base in Georgia.
The colonel's World War II
decorations include the dis
tinguished flying cross, croix
de guerre with bronze star,
air medal with oak leaf, the
distinguished unit badge,
Army commendation ribbon,
European theater ribbon with
four battle stars, and the Asiatic-Pacific
ribbon with one
battle star.

ment to Saigon, report many
pleasant experiences. Mrs! Ko
fahl is the former Dorothy
Peterson of Sugar City, Idaho.
She was stewardess for the
American airlines before her
marriage to the colonel in

was awarded a command pilot
rating according to special
order from Crew Training Air

Private School
Attendance Mounts
Washington (IPI The.U. S.
Office of Education reported
today that more and more of
the nation's students are at
tending private schools.
It said the proportion of
the nation's elementary and
high school pupils enrolled in
church-related and non-sectarian
private schools .has in
creased steadily since 1900. .
The report showed that one
in 11 pupils were enrolled in
such schools in the 1899-1900
school year with one in seven
in 1953-54, base year for the
study.

Roast Beef
Favorite
UN Dish
By JEANNE LESEM
United Nations, N.Y. HP!
The United Nations may split
on politics, but members
agree wholeheartedly on
roast beef.
This long-time American fa
vorite is one entree that's al
ways on the menu in the UN
delegates' dining room.
Presumably it's even popu
lar with Russians, although
manager Frank W. Reickert
declined to confirm or deny
this.
"We live in a glass house,"
he explained, "and we don't
want to offend anyone by dis
cussing what he eats for
lunch. That's a private mat
ter." And private it promises to
remain, for the public is ad
mitted to the delegates' din
ing room only between 11:30
a.m. and 1 p.m. daily, in ad
vance of the delegates' own
lunch hour.
Same Dishes For All
Naturally, it's on a first
come, first-served basis, Rei
ckert said, with reservations
available each morning at the
visitors' service desk on the
main floor of the General As
sembly on Manhattan's east
side.
Large groups such as club
and school organizations, can
reserve the entire 400-seat
dining room in advance by
mail through the visitors'
service, he added, for any pe
riod when the public normal
ly is served.
Beyond that, there's no spe
cial treatment, said Reickert,
who is the Knott Hotel's Cor
poration manager for UN
food services. Private citizens
are given the same choice of
dishes as the UN delegates
and staff one that has
pleased representatives of the
82 member nations for the six
years the dining room has
been open.
Always Roast Beef
A typical daily menu rep
resents at least half a dozen
national cuisines on the club
plate list alone, plus several
more on the a la carte side.
For instance, one recent
menu featured an American
style seafood casserole as the
chef's special, followed by a
Portuguese omelet, French
style halibut steak and leg
of lamb, American pork chops
with apple fritters, ternera
asada con chili (roast leg of
veal Latin American style),
and two Russian favorites,
smoked ox tongue and sea
food salad a la Russe.
There are always Ameri
can and English grilled chops
and steaks, half a dozen cold
plates and salads, fancy des
serts and pastries and a
cheese selection to do credit
to any first-class continental
restaurant.
Besides the roast beef, sir
loin steak is another favorite.
Indian lamb curry, Spanish
arroz con polio and Italian
veal . scallopini also are high
on the list, Reickert added.

The original painting of
"Washington Crossing the
Delaware" by Emanuel
Leutze was destroyed in a
1942 Allied air raid on Bre
men, Germany. German-born
Leutze painted the picture in
1851 for the United States
Congress. When fire marred
the canvas, he sold it to the
German government. He did
a copy for Congress, but it
was refused. The copy now
is in the Metropolitan Mu
seum of Art in New York.

PROSPECT
Wind Causes
By MICKIE LARSON
Prospect A wind storm
March 29 caused extensive
damage to several homes in
the Prospect area. Roofs were
torn off and flying objects
broke windows. A tree fell
across a house owned by Elk
Lumber company and occu
pied by Mr. and Mrs. William
McElrouny and family.
Mrs. McElmuny and chil
dren were in the house when
the tree fell but no one was
injured. Several . rooms were
badly damaged
The wind blew power lines
down and telephone service
was out for several hours.
Many trees were blqwn
across the highways.
Ross sawmill at Prospect
has been closed for repairs
since March 20.
Mr. and Mrs. Norman Har
rison, son of Alta Josephson,
were here to pick up their
sons, Kenny and Gino, to re
turn to Roseburg. Kenny and
Gino spent their spring vaca
tion visiting at their grand
parents home.

Mr. and Mrs. Joe Colley of
Boice Speaks at
Crater High School
Central Point Charles A
Boice, assistant manager of
traffic safety, division of the
state department of motor ve
hicles, discussed traffic safety
and showed a film "And Then
There Were Four," at Crater
High school recently.
His appearance served as
a part of the safety campaign
sponsored by the Crater Com
ets, the school newspaper.
Boice said that too many
teen-agers place too much em
phasis on car ownership, and
that in some schools, it is the
hot-rodding youth who be
comes the leader rather than
the safe driver. He said he
believes all teen-age drivers
are not as bad as- they are
made out to be.
He added he believed it
was the duty of every student
driving a car to drive safely
and courteously.
He said there is no official
law that a person must be 18
to obtain a license now, but
it is being discussed. The rea
son for such discussion is
based on the fact that one
fourth of all accident occur
within the age group 15
through 24 while the age
group drives only one fourth
the miles any other age group
does.
