OAK LEAF CLUSTER
T Sgt. Worth P. Wells, 332
North- 10th street, Klamath
Falls, aerial engineer, has been
awarded an Oak Leaf Cluster
to the D.F.C-, it was announced
by Brig. Gen. William H. Tur
ner, commanding general of the
India-China division, air trans
port command.
The award was made upon
completion of 600 hours of op
erational flight in transport air
craft over the dangerous and
difficult India-China air routes,
where enemy interception and
attack was probable and ex
pected. The air trail over the Hump,
famed route through the tow
ering peaks of the Himalaya
mountains, blazed by the air
transport command, is recog
nized by airmen as the world's
toughest. Today the Hump route
is the only lifestream of vital
military supplies for the allied
forces fighting the Japanese in
China.
The citation accompanying
the award adds;
"Flying at night as well as
by day, at high altitudes over
impassable, mountainous terrain
through areas characterized by
extremely treacherous weather
conditions necessitating long
periods of operation on instru
ments ... requiring courageous
and superior performance of his
duties to overcome, he accom
plished his mission with distinc
tion ..."
The award was made for the
period of service 2 December
1943 to 28 March 1943.

these are not surroundings for
soul-growth. We need time to
think, time to dream, time to
picture, in imagination, the fise
things we are going to do. Of
course, we don't get ail of those
things done. But you have to
think them first before you can
get anything done.
I believe, if we are capable
of being fascinated by some
constructive vis ion or resolve,
we'll never suffer any very des

is that anyone who is possessed

magnetic enough to attract the
