FOX Milledgevilie, Ga. -l?li- Bar bara Gay Powers wanted her suitor to quit flying before she would marry him. But Francis Powers told her she would have to take the Air Force and flying, too, if she wanted !(Ci)i-and she did. The striking, dark-haired Georgia girl, now 24 lYTi) only .18 when she married, has uorne up well waiting for news of the fate of U2 pilot Francis Gary Powers, now in Russian hands. Mrs. Powers has gone into seclusion, spending part of her time here in the tiny green and white cottage of her mother, Mrs. Monteen Brown, and at the home (i)f her married sister in Albany, Ga. Mrs. Powers no doubt knows a great deal about her husband's high altitude flights over Russia from Adana, Turkey, where he wa5 based. But government antt Lockheed officifjj obviously have warned her to say abso lutely nothing. At the one news conference . 1 sue iieiu, bite tutiu iter iiLisuanu doesn t nave a suite then , ' ...,..

It probably is a matter of her definition of the word. Shy With Girls Typical of his shyness with girls, POci's met Barbara through her mother. He was an F-84 Thunderjet pilot with the 486th Fighter Squadron of the Strategic Air Command basedat Turner Air Force Base outside Albany. Mrs. Brown worked in the base cafeteria-and as he so of ten did with older women -the young man endeared him self to her. Mrs. Brown brought her young daughter to meet the handsome pilot from the Virginia hills and their courtship was swift. They were married in 1954. The girl didn't want any chil dren so long as her husband was flying and thehave had j)e. In 195B,Powe),'jresigned his commission with the Air Force and took a job as "test pilot" with Lockheed Air craft. He was making $627.48 per m'tTnyh then as a first lieuten ant. The Lockheed job paid $1,500 Ononth to start. Pre mier Nikita Khrushchev has said Powers told Russian au thontUes he was making $2,- ujuv ct iiiumu ana inai ne was Having to buy a house. Powers was a top-notch fighter pilot, one of the top six in his squadron. But his record was not particularly distinguished. His only decor ation was the National De fense Service Medal, given to all men in service during the Korean War whether they were in combat or not. He never was. But there was something extra about the young man that led Lockheed and the Central Intelligence Agency to assign him to one of the nOst dangerous and delicate of missions. Dr. Dean Walker, the soft spoken, scholarly president of Milligan College which Pow ers attended from 1948 to 1950, said that in retrospect he remembers a quality about the young man that set him aside. "I've seen the same trait in young men singled out for work by the Federal Bureau of Investigation," the head of the tiny Tennessee college said. "We try to instill the qualities here. "It's a certain integrity of intellect and of character. Francis had it. He was re served, but not withdrawn. He was the type of person you knew you could count on. Those of us here at Milligan are proud of him." Young Powers is remem- Wl bered by one of his college classmates, Claude Calloway of Gastonia, N.iE) as a kind of bug on physical fitness. Physical Fitnen Bug "He trained and exercised faithfully," Calloway said. "He was never known to smoke a cigarette. He raised all pills - never even took an aspirin. If he had a headache, he would go to bed and sleep it0ff." His grades at Milligan were not outstanding - roughly a "strong" C average. They were not, in fact good enough for him to be advised to go on to medical school as his father had hoped.rjnstead, he return-. ed to the home in Pound, Va., ' and enlisted in the Air Force. Stationed at Westover Field in Massachusetts, the young man was taken along "for the ride" with officers at the base putting in their flying time. His love of flying was re awakened and, after a year in which he became a corpor al, Powers put inor flight training with the Air Force. He went to school at Green ville, Miss., run by civilians for the Air Force and got his pilot's wings on Dec. 19, 1952. The biography the Air Force has issued on Powers runs a scant 200 words and covers only his routine assignments to training bases in Arizona and Georgia, plus two months non-combat service in Japan during the Korean War. Powers was so quiet, so non assertive that it is difficult to find the motivations that pushed the young flier into an internatloQal incident and may bring his death as a spy. A girl at Grundy High School furnished one bit of evidence. Powers was the "class poet" on the night of graduation in 1946 and she still has the poem that Fran cis wrote and read. Here S how it goes: "We're parting tonight from the friends of our youth, o "We parlOrom the fc)iool that our valor inspired. "It quickened our zeal and our love for the truth, p. "And always our Taint hearts to fervor it fired. "We shall ever admire, a,s this moment weQj, "All the bounteous wisdom and worth of her name; "Her children will stay to her memory true "While deeds of devotion add light to her fame."

Reading Club foChildfcn anized in County A "Smokey Bear Reading club" for children from the ages of 6 through 14 is being organized this summer by the Public Library of Medford and Jackson county, accord ing to Head Librarian Omar Bacon. The club Is built around a "Keep Oregon Green" theme and is being offered at the main library and each of the seven branch libraries. It will run from June 10 through Aug. ) at the main library and will start at other branch libraries when school lets out for tiie summer. Bacon said there are two purposes to the program. One, to keep up tli9 student's read ing skills while they are out of school for the summer, and two, to help them learn. He noted that the program will offer children the oppor tunity to read on their own out of books of their own choice. Receive Emblem Each member of tliCQread ing club will receive a Smokey Bear membership button, donated by the Rogj River National Forest. In dition each member will have '1: his own record book to write in the titles of those books he has read, and will have a green paper tree with his name on it attached to a bul letin board in each of the libraries. Bacon said that each time one of the children fin ishes reading a book he will have a small yellow star past ed on the tree. There will be no book reviews, he said. When members of the age of eight and above have fin ished reading five books, they will receive application blank? for participation in the Oregon Green Guard, an or ganization sponsored by the Keep Oregon Green associa tion to protect and conserve the resources of the state. Awards Parly At the end of the summer in each library there will be an awards party for the groups where awards will be given to those students who have read 10 or more books. Each member will be re quired to rQid at least thrft books along the lines of con sergation during the summer, Bacon said. The other books may be of the member's own choice. A number of groups have donated to the program a number of colorful books and pamphlets on conservation which are geared to children's interest, Bacon pointed out. They are the Keep Oregon Green association, the west Coast Lumbermen's associa tion, the American Forest Products association, the Jack son County extension service and the Western Pine associa tion The Medford Corporation and Timber Products also do nated several items. In addition to the books donated by various groups, Bacon said, the library has many books of Its own on nature and forestry. He said the schools have been cooperative in promot ing this program among the students. Mrs. Harry Fuller, acting children's department supervisor at the library, re cently visited the various schools in Medford and ex plained the program directly to the students. Interested children should contact the main library or their nearest branch library for additional information. Penneys Downtown MEDFORD! Compare . . . Save .ore Than Usual! dst" T" ' S'SmJ.
