In Manila. Estlior Sevcik elud
ed the Japanese ho had ordered
her to report to a concentration
camp with her small son and
went into hiding with a friend.
Marcia Barrett, daughter of the
chief Protestant chaplain on Cor
rcgidor and her three children.
Fifteen months later they were
discovered and threatened with
death if they did not this time
turn in at Santo Tomas, the pris
on camp.
During tlie 15 months they were
in hiding, the home where they
lived was used for the storage of
guns and ammunition for tlie un
derground.
They also rescued tlie baby son
of a Jewish-German couple killed
by the conquerors,
It was then that Esther Sevcik
learned of her husband's death.
Slie w alked into the prison com
pound, her son in her arms in
April, 19-43, to join the thousands
of others, suffering from malnu
trition. overbearing guards and
lack of privacy.
Her son became ill. He was un
able to assimilate the food pro
vided By tlie captors . , . aspirin
was the only medicine available.
Two weeks after he became un
conscious she was permitted to
take him outside the confines of
tlie prison to a leper hospital. It
was too late. Two days before he
was 2 years old Alan died.
Unable to buy a plot of earth
in which to lay him, the baby
was cremated illegally between
two Japanese soldiers
For two years she endured the
horrors of Santo Tomas. Every
scrap of vegetation had long agn
been eaten. There had been no
provisions for bathing or for laun
dry. Guards refused to allow the
meager sleeping accommodations

Enrollment Up
ASHLAND UPD - Spring en

Thursday.
Total enrollment last spring
was 1.527.

old son. Her brother, still abroad
in the U.S. service, placed the
child on board the Queen Mary,
an identification tag about his
neck, and sent him from England
to New York alone. Esther cared
for him for three years until her
brother remarried.
Her fourth child was a girl of
16. abandoned in Mexico by a
Greek father. Through relatives
she learned of the girl's plight,
drove to Mexico and brought the
girl home. Slie sent her to school
in tlie United States and she mar
ried an Air Force man.
Slie worked for a time at the
atomic plant at Richland, Wash.,
but became restless, took a
three-months leave of absence
and went to Europe to see friends
of Santo Tomas davs.
She met a soldier brother and
during their tour readied Greece.
Previously Esther Sevcik had
tried to adopt a child but had
been unsuccessful. Adoption ail.
thoritics all over Europe had told
her "widows don't adopt chil
dren." They reached Athens where or
phanages were filled to overflow
ing with pathetic babies. It was
tlie poorest country on the conti
nent. She went to the American con
sulate who gave her permission
to visit the orphanages. She was
still seeking a child. There was
little or no food, no clothing, no
beds. She found an infant girl,
wrapped in newspapers, lying un
attended on a stone floor so frail
and tiny there seemed little left
of life.
With the aid of the American
consulate, the legal adoption was
completed. But trouble was
ahead, she learned that the o.
ficials had changed their minds.
The immigration officer refused
to issue a visa for the baby.
She refused to give up, wrote let
ters to Sen. Warren G. Magnu
son, the U.S. Immigration Serv
ice and finally to President
Dwight Eisenhower.
Three weeks later she received
confirmation from Hie United
States of America Uiat she could
bring the infant to this country.

Periodic vehicle inspection was
okayed by 68 per cent of those
polled. Twenty three per cent vot
ed no: 8.7 per ccnt said they had
no opinion; and .2 per ccnt did
not answer the question.
A question pertaining to arrest
on reasonable grounds apparently
was not well understood by those
polled. Approximately 40 per
cent favored tlie proposal, while
about 35 per cent disfavored it.
Nearly 24 per cent said tlicy had
no opinion and 114 per ccnt did
not respond on tlie question.
The division said it believed
the high "no," "no opinion" and
no response votes on tlie proposal
indicate a lack of understanding
of the complex legal problem in
volved. A similar poll in neighbor
ing Washington disclosed that 76
per cent of the public supported
the principle of arrest on reason'
able grounds.
Interestingly enough, another
question on the poll disclosed that
86 per ccnt of those responding
believe Oregon and all states
should have laws conforming with
the Uniform Vehicle Code. Maxi
mum speeds, implied consent and
arrest on reasonable grounds are
a part of the UVC.
The poll, similar to those con
ducted in several other states,
was taken to help officials deter
mine public understanding of traf
fic problems as well as their sup
port of programs aimed at solving
these problems. Questionnaires
were received from 34 out of the
state's 36 counties.
For the most part, question
naires came from field offices of
the department wlicro persons re
newing driver licenses or passeng
er car licenses were asked to
complete the form. In some
areas, the questionnaire was
completed through local civic or
fraternal and service organiza
tions. The department said 61.3 per
cent of those completing the ques
tionnaire were men and 36 per
ccnt were women. This represents
