Dickenson's PRIMROSE GARDENS Giant Hybrids Wide Range of Colors Ona Mile Off Highway on Old Ferry Road SHADY COVE, OREGON N Women's News Writer Tells Tension Effects Family (Editors! Before interns lionsl crises and after, men in the military serrice and their wires find world ten sion a part of their lives. How does this affect the families of these men? The following dispatch describes the way one young wife re acts to life of such con stant tension.) By ROBERTA ULRICH Spokane, Wash. - IUPD - Two mornings a week Martin Rich ardson leaves his home in su burbia and heads for work On the third morning, Rich ardson takes along an over night bag. When he picks it up, his family knows he won t be home for 48 hours. After that, barring emer gency, he is home for two days. Except for that he cannot go farther than a specified distance from his job even while not actually at work, Richardson's routine is not too different from that of many young businessman who travels. But Marlin Richard son does not wear a business suit or work at a desk. Wears Uniform He wearsr a U.S. Air Force uniform and his traveling is done at more than twice the speed of sound in an F106 jet fighter plane, patrolling the skies along our northern bor der. Richardson, 30, a native of Delta City, Miss., has been in the Air Force more than 10 years. For seven years, he has been married to NanEtte, 27, of Leland, Miss. They have four children, Bert, 6; twins Carla and Marlin, 5; and Don, months. Gelger Heights, where the Richardsons live, is six miles from his station at Geiger Air Force Base. It looks like any ice suburban development. Setting it apart are the mili tary ranks that precede the names on the identical signs that adorn every home and the klaxon. The klaxon sounds frequent ly for the families of the 498th fighter - Interceptor squadron, ignalling practice alerts. At the sound, every man the development hurries into his working uniform and races for his car and the base, leaving a world of wives and children. Families such as these feel much more closely than most such national crises as the Cuban affair. "During that alert I didn't see Marlin for seven days," Mrs. Richardson said. "He could call occasionally, but I didn't even know what he was doing." Four Children At home the dark-haired, attractive young wife had her hands full with four children the oldest In first grade and the twins in klndergartcn and the problems of getting settled In a new and largely unfurnished home. The family had returned in August from four years duty in Spain. Ecuador Is Topic For Mothers Club Dr. Eugene Bowman of Southern Oregon college was speaker for the recent March meeting of West Side School Mothers club. The speoker, who had spent two and one-half years in Ecuador for the stale depart ment, showed photographs of classes and told of living con ditions there. Mrs. Ellis Charticr, presi dent, announced a school skat ing party for April 1. Plans also were made for a spring card party to benefit the school's Italian foster child. Hostesses were Mrs. Robert Kline and Mrs. Don McNiel. Visit O'Brien-Mr. and Mrs. Mar vin Warren visited last week In Brookings with relatives. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Simmons and Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Car pentcr. They also called on Mr. and Mrs. Joe Johnson in Crescent City, Calif. Plan Dance Star Promenadrrs will hold the monthly dance Saturday March 23, at 8 p.m. at Roxy Ann Grange hall. The square dance club also plans a work shop Tuesday, March 28, at the same hall. IS. How World During her husband's ab- scences, Mrs. Richardson finds it easy to keep busy. "I have some things to do while Mar lin is on alert," she said. "Things like sewing and cleaning closets that mess up the house and mean neglect ing routine chores." Her hardest job is to con tinue preparing full dinners without her husband there to appreciate the meal or its set ting. "It's an awful tempta tion just to give the kids ham burgers and cokes," she said. "They'd like that every night. I pick times he's gone to fix things he doesn't like and I do, such as casseroles." Discipline Discipline is another prob lem. As in most households, daddy's voice brings instant obedience to such commands as "Go to bed." Loneliness is not . a real problem. "I won't ever say I like having him gone," said Mrs. Richardson of her hus band. "But it's part of the Air Force life." 'I don't really think about the danger. Unless something happens to someone else. Then you stop and think and it scares you. But this is what he likes to do and if hes happy, I'm happy."
