Reports On
East Tour

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.

prayers in their hearts as five
American men carried the Stars

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

camp in San Diego, he made
nine jumps as a paratrooper, two
more at Hlckam Field In Hawaii.

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.

. Time dragged for the men on
the hill. 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.
