Central Point Family Eaqer To Return Home Mr. and Mrs. John Smock and family, 98 Bigham Jane, Central Point, will soon re turn to the United States after spending the past year in Mel bourne, Australia, where Mr. Smock served as a Fulbright exchange teacher. The Smocks have been keeping a diary in recent weeks, which they made into the last letter of a series for The Mail Tribune. First half of the diary-letter was pub lished last week, and the re maining portion follows. Speaks May 15: John spoke at the Rotary club tod y. The word has spread regarding his whereabouts and availability and his speaking engagements are becoming m r and more frequent. Alice had a group in for luncheon at which she served "terribly" American food inclu ing a tossed salad, hot rolls and pumpkin pie. She can't dc:de whether these women are very polite or if they really do enjoy our eating habits as much as they say. In the evening John at tended a lecture on Mycenae at the university. And Alice attended her Co- ncil of Adult Education group meeting. It was her turn to be the leader for a discussion of Heming way's, "The Old Man and The Sea." May 19: We left the girls with friends and their excite ment over spending two weeks without mother and daddy ran high. We were equally thrilled about start ing our Barrier Reef holiday. May 20-23: These days rep resent a holiday we shall long treasure in our memories. We took the overnight train to Sydney, flew from there to Brisbane where we spent two days with friends enjoying the sights of Queensland. The climate and growth here are very tropical and re minded us of Hawaii. We con tinued further north by plane to begin our five-day boat cruise through the Whitsun day passage and out to the Barrier reef. Weatherwise, we once more were in luck, and the ilays were spent cruis ing, fishing, playing in the surf, beach combing, etc. Six Boats There were six boats in the fleet, each wilh a crew of eight and 26 passengers. A more congenial group would be hard to find and by the end of toe week, goodbyes were hard to say. Alice found fishing great; she shrieked when she caught a three-foot shark, but was thrilled with the beautiful four-pound coral bass she landed. The fish were all marked wiih designs of brilliant col ors and were a sight to be hold. We were taken over the Barrier reef in glass-bottom boats and all the "ohs" and "ahs" were sincere as we viewed the vivid colored fairyland beneath us, a skin diver's paradise. We spent two days sight seeing in Sydney before re turning home. Though it was good to see our family again, it was difficult to adjust lo the winlcry weather after basking in the sun. June 4: Today is the Queen's birthday and a pub lic holiday. Her birthday is really in April but it seems the weather then is too un predictable and since the event is marked with parades and reviews of all types, the date of celebration has been changed. We had pop-in company all day. Of main interest was a Fulbrighter who will be spending the next school year on an exchange to Redwood City. Calif. The last company of the day were bridge play ers, so we set up the table and cheered the Queen every time we made a game. Invited June 12: John was invited to spend the day al Frankston Teachers college. This is where Ernest Miller is librar ian and lecturer. Alice joined friends for a shopping trip to one of the large open-air mar kets. The material which she SAVE 50 OR MORE! ECON-O-CLEAN Professional Dry Cleaning Wifh Coin Operative Economy!

An even more curious display were the slacks which, from their hang ing places on higher tree branches, were acting as wind socks as the breeze swayed them. The markets fascinate Al ice and she never tires of nosing around in them. Our trunks are to be picked up in a few dys and sent ahead by ship, so we have cut our clothing needs for these final weeks to a bare mini mum. We leave Melbourne on July 28, takng the brand new Southern Aurora train to Sydney. This train has just been completed and is suppos ed to surpass any other train anywhere in design, perfor mance and modernness. Accommodations We are pleased to have been able to secure accommoda tions on it. We will met in Sydney by friends we met on our recent boat cruise and spend the day with them, de parting for Honolulu that eve ning. We are flying to Seattle where we will visit Alice's family and have a look-see at the World's fair before head ing south for home, sweet home. Our social schedule be tween now and then is so crammed that It "almost" ceases to be fun. It has been a most rewarding year, so meaningful to each of us. Though we are getting eag er to greet our families and friends, we are dreading the goodbyes which must soon be faced here. We hope you have enjoyed sharing some of our experi ences with us through these articles and we thank you for being interested enough to read them. We leave you now with a ta-ta (goodbye) and a "oweryagoin1, mate?" and will look forward to seeing you in the very near future.

It is the third of a series of foreign firms being brought here by the as sociation as a public service and is being shown without charge. The Seven Samurai is the story of a group of hired knights (or samurai) who de fend a village against 40 mounted bandits. Their pay few handfuls of rice. Pauline Kael, considered one of America's leading film critics, wrote of this movie that the "Seven Samurai" is 'like a brutal and imaginative ballet on fighting and the na ture of strength and weak ness, so complex visually that you can't take your eyes away." Directed by Akira Kuro sawa, the film took more than a year to make and was the biggest film ever made in Japan at that time. Many con sider it one of the best films ever made, not just in Japan but in the world. The fum ing itself has been universally praised and Kurosawa has been called the greatest of all contemporary film craftsmen for his use of the horizon for compositional variety, "the seemingly infinite camera an gles, the compositions that are alive with action, the almost abstract use of trees, flowers, sky, rain, mud and moving fruit it's fun NO COOKING No need to stand tor hours over a hot stove on warm days, when you make m tht new M.C.P. way. unnoted fresh p iiSe berries , (p f fresh treat your family to this UUTUU CITRUS PRODUCtS CO NMliM cl!F GET M.C.P.

Miss Kael said of this "It is the Western form carried to apotheosis - a vast celebration of the joys and torments of fighting, seen in new depth and scale, yet pre serving the wonderful chival ric simplicity of the Western plot, which is even more won derful in the nuclear age." A short will also be shown, and coffee will be served.
