OREGON Dream Comes True For Pete Sarantopoulos By RUTH KING 'and I can say that it Is like a The hope of someday living In I Part of the cosmopolitan New America is being realized by Pete! York.

Gus Lampropulos, Klamath Falls "In San Francisco I stayed two Pete came to this country fcastjdays with a friendly Greek-Ameri October and Is helping at the Cas caae noiei. He was born near Tripoli. Greece, attended a commercial and economics school in Athens and now is taking lessons in Eng lish from Mrs. Donald Ross, who tf - ft. . . I . HV ,r f;.3 PETE SARANTOPOULOS -ft has coached many others In prep aration for American citizenship. After completing compulsory mil itary service, Pete worked in a bank In Athens while he made his plans to leave his native Greece. It took him just 33 hours to fly from the birthland of Hippocrates and Aristotle to New York. In a recent Interview he tells his reactions of his first glimpse of a new land: "Many times I had thought that If some day I could come over here it would be the greatest thing In my life. I had that thought be cause I could earn more money. I could see my relatives and I could live in the American greatness. "With all those Ideas I took my way and I went away from my home country, after I made my plans for my life. "My travel was too fast and so I did not see many things In this endless country. However I cannot describe all that I have seen. I do not know what I can write first and what second. In my mind there are many different pictures ' end many different thoughts. "My arrival to New York took place at night and I stayed there for a day. The magic giani cny looked very very beautiful. The thousands of her big buildings were lighted up at night. You could see millions of lights In all her extent. The streets and avenues were running from numerous cars. The sea in the morning looked clear and many ships and boats were sliding by. The planes and hell copters were crossing her blue skys as big wild birds. The people I have seen were busy and this Is why America is going on with consistancy. I saw the sovereignty of the mechanics evolution every where, in every field. The first sight of New York gave me the whole picture of the glorious and real American civilization. "I saw Chicago, too, for a little can family. I went through all that city and I liked it very much. I admired her big bridges and I was enraptured when I was looking at them Golden Gate Bridge and Oakland Bay Bridge). I had seen wonderful things but I can say mat san Franciscos spots were more wonderful. I saw the abun dant beauty of the Golden Gate Park and I forgot for a little. King's Garden ol Athens. "On my way to Klamath Falls I found interesting places. The green Sacramento looked beautiful. Many fruit and other trees decorated the vales outside this city. But yet in all my way until I had discovered Klamath Falls, I could admire the beautie: of nature. Magnificent mountains with thick forests and small lakes and rivers delight the eyes. "In Klamath Falls, with emotion I recognized my good relatives. and I am trying to do the same for the American people. I found hospitality and affection from many people and thus I can say that the customs of the ancient Greeks prevail all over the civil ized world. "The progress and development of this country rightly is famous ail over the world. In all the fields ( sciences arts etc.), the Ameri cans did and they are doing great successes, and they are proud of their big nation, i can say that they are very kind and gentle and they love the freedom and the greatness of their country. "An important thing is that, though this eminent country consti tutes from people of all the other countries, the life Is going on friendly and quietly." s- '.i .1. : , L:.k..t - X Fid t i ' Civ. ..---. ftAf . v."

Russ Missile Base Revealed SEOUL (UP) Russia has built a guided missile base at Vladivos tok, bringing Japan and Korea within range of an atomic attack by pilotless raiders, it was re ported here Saturday. A Korean Intelligence source said the Russians had nearly finished the launching site last summer, and it is almost certain that it has been completed by now. U. S. Army authorities in Tokyo said they had no information on the Vladivislok base. The Korean source said the Korean Intelligence Service be lieves the Russians have guided missiles similar to the U.S. Red stone, with a range of 250 to 300 miles, or "weapons that could strike at targets even further away." It has not been confirmed that the Soviet Union has developed guided missiles of a range greater than the Redstone. The Korean source said that if the Russians possess a guided missile capable of flying 1500 miles all of Korea. Japan and Okinawa would be under the threat of atomic attack.

De Lap, County Clerk By Bud Bucslng We've touched briefly on the value of an exposure meter, but the subject is too Important to be passed over lightly. For in stance, there are two types of photo-electric exposure meters available. One measures the light reflected from your photo subject. This is the reflection meter. The other type measures the Heht falling upon the sub ject. This is called an incident light meter. Some light meters are equipped to measure either reflected or incident light. It's impossible to say which type is best. The re flection light me ter is excellent for averaging the light reflected from a landscape, a building, or a group scene. In taking a reading, you point the meter at the scene from the camera position. You get an average reading for both dark and light areas where nothing will be drastically over or under exposed. The Incident light meter is perfect for closeups and por traits. The meter is held close to the face of the subject and pointed at the camera. This measures the light falling on the face only and gives very precise exposure setting for the face area. Next week we'll go into more detail on the use of the reflec tion meter. Hope we'll see you meanwhile . . . for your film, photo accessories or that new camera. Your photography is our business!
