JULY 28, 1954 UN Delegate Reports On East Tour (Edi Note: The following are excerpts from a letter to her par enta In Lakevlew from Joyce Dunham, IOOP United Nations delegate now touring the east with a group.) By JOYCE DUNHAM Spokane, July a Gee! what a time I am having I It seems I've known these kids all my life. There are 14 boys and 20 girls. Last night at the banquet in Port land, Mr, Looney introduced each of the 14. When my turn came he told about our Rodeo and my horse. Mr. and Mrs. Looney are so nice. They came to Spokane with us and it's like having an Aunt and Uncle here to see me off. Lethbrtdee. July 10 Canada is so beautiful and the hospital ity is wonderful. The trip through the Rockies yesterday was breath taking. These Canadian boys are sure swell. Winnipeg, July 12 The days are flying by. We are really rushed. We get about 4 hours sleep a night. Time passes quickly on the bus. The most fun we have is learning and singing "The Star Spangled Banner," "Oh Canada" and "God Save The Queen" and "America." By now we can sing them with a lust and emotion that at times overwhelms me. Also we have a first class choir. There isn't a per son on board who can't sing. Oh, what funl They deliver milk In Canada with a horse and carriage are the world's worst drivers. Have very few paved streets In the towns. We were escorted by two mounted police from Regina to Gren frell for church. A lovely church service exactly like home and the best sermon. I felt so good after it. Today is the only time I've felt homesick and not very much at that. We were also escorted from the Grenfell I OOF Hall to the United Church of Canada by Cantons of Regina, Military branch of the Odd Fellows. We had quite a little parade. I was elected co-captaln of the girls. A boy from Dawson Creek, British Columbia Is the boy captain. Each day at every meal a boy and a girl say grace and thank the lodge. I have never met such a wonderful bunch of kids. I hate to think of having to leave them. We have been ("bean" in. Canadian) to a reception every night since If left home. Don't be surprised If I speak with an ac cent when I get home. We are trying to learn each others' ac cent. British Columbia Is by far the prettiest Province. It Is hilly and beautiful. The rest is plains. Will I ever be glad to see a leal mountain again. Even If I am tired, and look awful and sound like a first clasH nut, I wouldn't miss this trip for anything.

The sun stayed behind lowered clouds and the battle for the island was mo mentarily lulled. i U.S. Marines of the 5th, part of the 4th and part of the 3rd Di visions who bad survived the mur. derous fire of the assault landing four days before watched with prayers in their hearts as five American men carried the Stars and Stripes up the cindered cone of Mt. Surlbachl and planted It there, symbol ol freedom In a world of war. Among those men watching was Bruce Elliott of the 5th who landed with the third assault wave, who like . all men under fire was afraid and not ashamed to name his fear. He was born in Lincoln, Ne braska in the autumn of 1925, came to Klamath Falls In 1941 and the next year enlisted in the Ma rines In his home town. In boot camp in San Diego, he made nine jumps as a paratrooper, two more at Hlckam Field In Hawaii. He returned to the states to serve as a drill Instructor, Joined the 5th and trained as a machine gunner at Camp Pendleton, was shipped back to Tarawa as a de- v i Bly Safety Drive Held BLY The Bly Brownies. Girl Scout Troops and the Bly Juvenile Grange members are conducting a safety campaign sponsored by the Bly Grange. During Farm Safety Week, July 25 to 31, they will concentrate, on ranches. Each member has been assigned a farm to inspect. When the "Safety Soldiers" lo cate a hazard they put up a skull and crossbones placard describing the hazard and telling how to cor rect it. This insepction will include the entire Bly community. Several fire hazards have already been located. also an old sewer which Is caving in, and one refrigerator stored where children had access to it. ine same groups are also pro moting a "clean up", "paint up" and "plant up" drive. The young group has met with splendid cooperation which Is very encouraging to them.

ACE MIMEO SERVICE 424 Main SU . rhone 9291 MIMEOGRAPHING Same Day Service) BRUCE ELLIOTT molltion expert. His next stop was Iwo Jlma. With the flag above that small spot of land washed by the Pa cific, the Invading Marines knew that a foothold had been gained, another step toward peace . . . there was no hint of the terrible days ahead. The military hoped to complete the campaign for the island in 72 hours. It was 36 days before the island five miles long and three wide was captured from the Japanese. Of the original assault troops, few lived to know. Upon his return to this country, Elliott contracted malaria in San Diego and this quirk of fate brought him back to Klamath Falls as a patient at the Marine Bar racks.

Elliott's feet itched" and the only sure cure was a pair of roller skates. It was at the rink he met Gloria Tockey who could cut a figure eight on a dime - The cards were stacked against the tall Marine for pretty Gloria had made a bet, all of 50 cents that she would marry him before an other lass. And Gloria won. She too came from the Golden- rod state. Romance blossomed un der mutual interests. Today, they live at 5427 Inde pendence Avenue with ' Stephen who is 7. Ann Christine, 4y3 and young Bryce who is 3. War came to Korea and In August 1950 as a member of the Marine Reserves Elliott was called back into the service for three months. His discharge left him with a desire for the ministry but changed plans cut short his study and with his family, he came back to Klamath Falls and the smell of the pines. He went to work for the Medo Land Creamery, heard a radio plea for Ground Observer volun teers. With his wife Gloria, he added his name to those willing to help guard America. The sound of battle will be with Bruce Elliott as long as he lives. Because he remembers Iwo Jima and hopes that such a fate will never come to this land, he cap tains a corps drill team and keeps his watch with the Ground Observ er Corps.
