Yearly Physicals

For Certain EMs Annual physical examinations

are in store for certain Staff NCO's and enlisted personnel in pay grade E-6 or above and/or 30 years of age or older on duty at major Marine Corps installations, the Marine Corps announced last week.

A new directive issued by the Navy's Bureau of Medicine and Surgery and cosigned by General David M. Shoup, Commandant of the Marine Corps, directs that the examinations be conducted to maintain physical fitness for corn- bct readiness at all times.

Marines serving at Marine Corps Bases, Recruit Depots, Air Stations, Marine Corps Schools, Quantleo, or with Fleet Marine

- - -

Force units will be examined each year within 30 days of the anniversary of their date of birth. The directive requires that,

wherever possible, the examina- tion shall be accomplished by Medical Department personnel organic to the Marine's unit, rather than by activities render- ing inpatient care.

Examinations will be sufficient- ly thorough to insure that the Marine is free of incipient disease or impairment which would pre- clude his performance of duty. Clues which indicate impairment or maladjustment will be followed with diagnostic, consultant or hos- pitalization procedures, as ap- propriate, according to the order.

Staff Wives Project

`Santa Claus Incorporated' To Guarantee Home Visit

"Santa Claus, Incorporated," a successful Staff NCO Wives proj- ect that got its start last year, will once again be held by that organ-1 izaticn for local families desiring the service.

Under the terms of the proj- ect, for a fee of $1, Santa Claus will visit your children in your own home during the period Dec. 1 to Dec. 22 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. During his visit, he'll pre- sent each child with a goodie and, in his typical fashion, will listen to the wishes and desires of the youngsters. Prior to the visit he will be briefed as to names, ages, etc. The venture has once again

been endorsed by Station officials. All families living on Station are eligible to submit requests. Those who live off Station may use a friend's quarters but must pay the $1 and make reservations through the chairman of the area in which quarters are located.

Reservations must be made in advance and will be taken any- time up to, and including, Dec.

Marine Returns Japanese Flag Taken At Tinian A Japanese soldier's personal

battle flag, taken during the bit- ter fighting for Tinian over 16 years ago, has finally been re- turned to the soldier's parents in Japan, courtesy of a Kaneohe Bay Marine.

According to GySgt. William F. Festing, Jr., Station Crash Crew, he picked up the flag on Tinian as a war souvenir while a member of "Fox" Co., 8th Marines, 2nd Marine Division in 1944.

Until several months ago the all-but-forgotten flag lay in a dust-covered box in their Man- ning Court home.

Then, on a K-Bay visit by Mrs. Motoro Suzuki 18 months ago, who had met Festing while he was on temporary additional duty at Atsugi. Japan, last year,

the flag was hauled from its resting place and shown. Mrs. Suzuki, in translating the

symbols on the flag, reasoned that the parents of the deceased sol- dier would probably like to have the flag and, should Festing de- sire, she would be glad to institute a search for the parents on her return to Japan.

Festing all but forgot the flag during the next year as Mrs. Su- zuki resumed her journey to the Mainland to join her husband who was finishing his tenure as a Fulbright Scholar at the Univer- sity of Michigan.

Then, early this week, a Tokyo-postmarked letter was delivered to the Festing quar- ters from Mrs. Suzuki. Enclosed was a Japanese news

clipping from the Asahi Press showing the soldier's mother and

older brother viewing the flag as well as a personal letter from the mother thanking Festing for his "outstanding act of humanity."

The letter also disclosed that the family had had no word other than a brief dispatch from the Japanese War Department in 1944 telling them of their son's demise. Mrs, Suzuki summed up the

sentiments of both the soldier's next-of-kin and all the Japanese people she had talked to about the amazing act, as follows:

". . Perhaps you could never have imagined that the flag would be returned to that family when you gave it to me . . . The flag must have been pleased and re- lieved to return to its home and you will be remembered forever with deep gratitude . ."

muted rations status, $1; children under 12 years of age, 60 cents.

Dinner will be served from 2 to 5 p.m. in both messhalls.

Officers, Staff NCO's, their de- pendents and guests will use the Staff NCO dining areas; junior enlisted men and guests, the main dining areas.

VMA-212 Lauded For Top Safety In Carrier Quals

Wives and friends of personnel of VMA-212 now on temporary duty in the Far East will be happy to know that the "Devil Cat" Squadron continues to operate in an outstanding m a n n e r. The squadron was lauded this week by the Commander of Naval Air Pa- cific for its superlative display of airmanship.

During carrier qualifications aboard the USS Oriskany, the squadron attained a record 13,000 accident free flying hours.

In a dispatch to the squadron from Brig. Gen. R. G. Weede, Bri- gade Commander, personnel of the squadron were congratulated for their accident free flying record.

The dispatch read in part, "Dur- ing these carrier qualifications you attained a record 13,000 acci- dent free flight hours which rep- resents 23 months of hard work, professional flying, and sound planning.

"This is truly a remarkable rec- ord and speaks for itself in the fields of supervision, pilot pro- ficiency, maintenance procedures and command influence. A well done to all the officers and men of this fine squadron."

Will This Be Your Black Season? The black season is upon us for another year- -first Thanks -

gibing. then Christmas and New Year's. It's our time of grief, tears and mourning across the land: the time for hang- ing wreaths, funeral wreaths. on doors and wearing black armbands.

Xes, this is a season we call joyous-the weeks of the groaning board, the gi f t-banked tree. Hut in countless homes the gifts will lie unwrapped and the groans will be of bereavement. Happy homecomings, family get-togethers will turn into mourning silences for those who made it home and back.

Here in Hawaii, the traffic death toll for this year has already exceeded traffic fatalities for the entire year of 1959 - with the most hazardous holiday season yet to come.

Campaigns for safe and sane driving often stress self survival-"The Life You Save May Be Your Own"-and rightly so, because many people, thoughtless of others are apt to use caution when their own hides are at stake. But there is another powerful plea to drivers, applicable not only to the holidays but to every day of the year.

It's a simple plea: Don't condemn. yourself to years, even a whole lifetime, of futile, self-destroying remorse. The collision creased by your own recklessness may maim and kill others while leaving you unscathed-physically unscathed.

But 'what about your IllPtdI Scan= Will you ever really be able to convince yourself of a lie -"Lit it wasn't your fault' Will you he immune to the TI1V,!ging. poisonou,, knowledge that, whatever the court decided, you might have saved others from terrible sorrow? -You, who would never wilfully rob or murder, can you -hut out from your brain the picture of a child's body crumpled in death, a woman %eeping hysterically for her lost husband?

No, these sights, these memories. eat at the conscience. Men have gone scot free front traffic aceidnts in which others died-only to become mental wrecks or hopeless drunkards from brooding over their complicity. Their own lives were spared by a freak of fate: but they were spared only to he

GI Insurance Holders Are Warned To Keep Beneficiaries Up-To-Date

Washington, (AFPS) - Service personnel holding National Serv- ice or U.S. Government life insur- ance policies are being warned to keep beneficiary designations cur- rent.

The Department of the Army (DA) in Circular 608-10 of Sept. 26, 1960, cites a case where a service member in 1948 desig- nated his mother and father as beneficiaries and following his subsequent marriage did not change the designations. He was killed while on active duty and, although he was the father of three children, the insurance was paid to his parents since they were the last named beneficiaries on

record with the Veterans Admin- istration (VA).

A policy holder of government life insurance has the right to name anyone he wishes as bene- ficiary of his policy. The DA con- cern, however, is that military personnel keep their beneficiary designations current and that they are always sure the names of the person or persons they want their insurance paid to is properly re- corded with the VA.

Changes in beneficiaries should be made on the proper VA forms and sent to the Veterans Admin- istration District Office, Post Of- fice Box 8079, Philadelphia 1, Pa.

"AFTER THE BALL WAS OVER"

By Chaplain J. W. Conte

Some were tired, some retired, some were just tiresome, and they could have danced all night. But even these took the hint that it was all over, as the waitress asked them to hold the coffee cups when she removed the tablecloth.

A few humorous situations were noted. (1) She: "And that sales- girl said this was the only dress of its kind. Oh George, I could have died; I was so embarrassed." (2) She: "So-I showed up in a muumuu. You want to start a fight over it?" (3) He: "I still have your piece of cake in my back pocket, dear. Did you want it now?" (4) He: "All right, all right, all right! Stop yakking will you. So I promise never to try vodka and cream soda again. It's all over. So leave me alone!"

I think everyone agreed by Veterans Day THAT IT WAS ALL OVER. And so it is with all good things in this life. They all have an ending. Most of us look forward to such things as the Birthday Ball, transfers, Thanksgiving and Christmas, and other excitable events, with a sense of joyful and hopeful expectancy. But when they are all over - blab. A sort of let down feeling creeps in. Maybe we expect too much, I don't know. Anyway, we shouldn't feel let down. It undermines a true healthly personality. So in order for us to develop

our characters more in line with the manner in which they were originally intended to go, let's decide to be a lot more realistic about people and events in the future. Let's not place more hope in them than they can bear. Let's not expect first-rate joys where only tenth-rate pleasures are to be found.

When you sit down to dinner, don't say "Please pass the cream?" That's being too hope- ful. "Don't say "Please pass the milk." That's being too pessi- mistic. Say "Please pass the pitcher." Then you are a realist, because you put just as much hope in the contents of that Pitcher as it can bear, (unless you're really "in the know"). And if you are "in the know"

then you should know that all the good things in life are merely reflections of the Goodness of God. And the reason why God permits us to enjoy things in life is to get us to realize that these things are merely shadows. And since they are shadows, then what must the Reality be like?

Look for the Reality of joy in people and events and never feel let down or disappointed again. It may take longer to find in some than in others; but keep looking. Eventually you'll find it, and I hope you experience true joy many times over.

0 TOYS FOR TOTS (Continued From Page 1)

Oahu sports a container for toy donations.

Here at KMCAS, 12 red con- tainers have been located for K- Bay personnel. They are situated at the administrative offices of each major command, at each MX and Toyland.

Last year, the local Reservists collected 210,017 toys for use in their charitable program. Inmates at Oahu Prison rehabilitated the used toys. Some 50,000 toys were still being worked on when Christ- mas arrived last year. These were donated to the victims of the Hilo tidal wave in May of this year.

MEDALS OF HONOR General David NI. Shoup, 22d

Commandant of the Marine Corps, is the second Medal of Honor holder and the first native of In- diana to become CMC. General Alexander A. Vandegrift, 18th Commandant, was the first Medal of Honor man to hold the office of CMC.

SECOND GENERATION WINGS EARNED Rear Admiral Louis J. Kim, Chief of Naval Air Advanced Train-

ing, recently awarded the wings of Naval aviator to lstLt. William D. Bauer during ceremonies at Corpus Christi, Tex. The admiral was a classmate of Bauer's father, the late Lt. Col Harold W. Bauer, who won the Medal of Honor before his death in a Pacific aerial engage- ment during World War II. The new aviator is a 1958 Naval Academy graduate and joins the 3d Marine Air Wing at El Toro.

CORPS PLAQUE GIVEN TO NAVAL ACADEMY A commemorative plaque in honor of all Marines, past and present,

was presented to the Naval Academy Nov. 1 by Gen. David M. Shoup, Commandant of the Marine Corps. To be placed in the chapel, the plaque, four feet wide and six feet long, was carved in Oberam- mergau, Gel many.

MARINE OUTFIT REACTIVATED Marine Attack Squadron 343 launched its first aircraft in 15 years

recently when 1st Lt. W. F. Clark took to the sky at the controls of an A4D Skyhawk jet. The squadron was reactivated Oct. 1, after 15 years in "mothballs." Known as the "Flying Banshees" during its short life from 1943 to 1945, the squadron was designated Marine Scouting and Bombing Squadron 343 at that time. The outfit never saw combat but served as a unit of the Hawaiian Sea Frontier operating from Midway Island.

Te Participate In

C bat Exercise Medical personnel at-

tached to the Kaneohe-Bay-based 1st Marine Brigade partici- pat "d in a day-long Combat Casual- ty Evacuation Exercise at the Bel_ lows Air Force Statics on Wednes- day.

The exercise was designed to test casualty evacuation and re- porting procedures under field conditions. Commencing at 7 a.m., 150 Ma-

rines acted as "casualties" with various battlefield simulated "wounds."

Throughout the day, Navy corpsmen administered aid to "casualties," established field aid stations and trained in preparing "wounded" for helicopter air evacuation. Helicopters from the Brigade's Helicopter Transport Squadron-161 were utilized in the problem.

Capt. William A. Robie, USN, (MC), Senior Brigade Surgeon supervised the field problem.

Cfficers Wives By Diane Balay

Are you dreaming of a White Christmas? Well, the Officers' Wives' Club plans to give you one, at least for one night, at the Dec. 9 "0" Wives' Christmas Ball. The plans are drawn up and many wives are already busy working on the music, dancing, food and decorations for this lovely annual affair. Bette Decker is chairman of the decorating committee and in a meeting last week she sub- mitted some beautiful ideas for the appointments for the lower lanai. A program of music and dance is to be presented during the intermission, and the talent will be provided by wives of our own club.

This is surely something you won't want to miss, so make your reservations early by calling Toni Kilduit, 253-054, or Julie McArdle, 72662. Reservations wal be lim- ited to 200.

As a reminder, there will be no December "0" Wives luncheon.

10,000 accident free flying hours. Marine Attack Squadron 212

and 214 had previously reached the 10,000 accident free flying mark.

Major R. H. Buettner, Com- manding Officer of H&MS-l3, and Lt. R. B. Booher established the new safety record for their squadron while flying a F9F Cougar jet fighting aircraft. The squadron utilizes five dif-

ferent type aircraft including the F9F, FJ4B Fury Jet; F8U Crusad- er Jet, R4D two engine transport inane, and R59, four engine trans- port plane.

Pilots of the squadron have not had an accident since June 1958.

Receiving safety awards is nothing new to the squadron. Since June 1958, personnel of the squadron have earned nine Air Fleet Marine Force Pacific Safety Awards in addition to the Chief of Naval Operations Aviation Safety Award for 1960, and the Marine Aircraft Group-13 Safety Award for calendar year 1959.

In the capacity of being the Headquarters and Maintenance Squadron for the Kaneohe Bay- based Marine Aircraft Group 13, the squadron is responsible for all major overhaul work for the Group's two attack squadrons and one fighter squadron.

Much of the credit for the Group's two attack squadrons re- corded 10,000 accident free flying

Recon Marines End Training, Testing Of Landing Boats

Personnel of the 1st Marine tions. Marines with their rubber Brigade's Reconnaissance Com- pany have completed a month- long test of a "new" type rubber boat. The test was' highlighted by an actual landing from the sub- marine USS CARBONERO on the beaches of Bellows Air Force Base.

The "new" boats are actually under consideration for re- adoption by the Brigade's Re- connaissance Company.

Used by Recon teams until re- placed by a larger craft four years ago, the raft-like "old-timers" have undergone four weeks of intensive reevaluation to deter- mine their superiority in speed of inflation, ease in handling and safety.

Members of the Recon Com- pany, the "eyes and ears" of the Brigade, boarded the sub- marine CARBONERO at Pearl Harbor to conduct the final phase of their re-evaluation of the rubber boats. Surfaced, the sub made its way to within three miles of the Bellows beaches. The sub then sub- merged to a depth of 100 feet to add realism to the operation. The sub then surfaced as it

would in actual combat opera-

Jackson College Evening Courses Are Announced

Honolulu's Jack son College hopped-on the off-duty education bandwagon this week with the an- nouncement that 40 courses are being offered in nine fields this year at the evening school.

Among the courses open are Business, Economics, English, His- tory, Mathematics, Political Sci- ence, Psychology, Sociology and Teacher Training.

According to Station educational officials, a local registration Pe- riod has been planned at the Sta- tion Education Office between th( hours of 9 a.m. and 12 noon and 1 and 4 p,m, on Monday and Tuesday. Late registration can be made at the College office any time prior to Nov. 29. Classes will begin Nov. 21.

A Station spokesman indicated that the Jackson College Evening courses are acceptable under the Corps' Tuition Assistance Pro- gram.

boats clambered on deck, inflated their boats and prepared to "hit the beach."

With the Recon men in their boats, the order to "dive" was given by the submarine coml mander. As water washed over the deck of the diving submarine, the recon teams began paddling 'or shore. This operation was test- ed three times. Each time, the submarine would resurface and recover the boats by approaching with the main deck a was h, ./hereupon the Recon teams would paddle onto the deck and bang the conning tower with paddles, sig- nalling the sub to rise all the way.

The month-long re-evaluation

of the rubber boat included still water paddling, capsizing drill and surf training. Personnel of the Reconnaissance C o m pan y agree that the new boat is more adaptable for their type work. It is a smaller craft seating only seven men as compared to the nine-man boat used by the com- pany in the past. The smaller craft has the advantage of being easier to debark during submarine op- erations.

In addition t: being easier to unload and load, the new boats are made entirely of rubber where the old boat is made of rubber and metal. The metal parts on the old boat posed a hazard of possi- ble injury to Members of the boat crew whenever it capsized.

hours is due to the conscientious 1798, "one stock of black leather effort made by mechanics and and clasp" was issued to each U. S. enlisted aviation technicians dur- Marine annually.

Public Works WANTED - Information which

will lead to the destruction of a

foreign agent accidentally intro- duced into this area in 1912, and which has since caused an esti- rrateu forty million dollars dam- age to government and privately owned property.

This agent is so bold that he does not even use an alias; his name is SUBTERRANEAN TER- MITE.

Persons having information as to the whereabouts of this agent are requested to call the Public Works Emergency Desk, phone 72380 immediately.

Termites were first noticed along the Honolulu waterfront about 1912. In 1950 they had spread to the Naval Air Station, Barber's Point; in 1954 to Kane- ohe Bay and in 1957 to Midway.

Authorities on termite control generally agree that proper con- struction of buildings is the an- swer to the termite problem. Per- sonnel now residing in Capehart Housing will note that their homes were so constructed that there is no wood portion of their house touching the soil. The Capehart Houses were constructed on a con- crete curbing which was poured on too of the foundation. Con- tractors have found that this is

one means of eliminating the sub- terranean termite damage.

However, homes and buildings built during World War II were generally constructed so that wood portions of the building are touch- ing soil and permit easy entrance for destructive termites.

Day by day, the termite prob- lem aboard the Air Station has become so acute that it has become a full-time project for the Public Works force to cope with.

The Public Works Officer has issued an appeal to all persons re- siding aboard the Station, and occupants of working spaces con- structed of wood to be on the lookout for evidence of termite damage. Anyone suspecting ter- mites in or around their living quarters are requested to call the emergency desk, phone 72380.

Capehart residents were advised that even though the wooden walls of their homes do not touch soil, subterranean termites may construct tunnels along the foun- dation curbing to reach their tar- get. Periodic inspections of the curbing surfaces, inside and out, are suggested. Anyone detecting the presence of termites are en- couraged to contact the Public Works Emergency Desk without delay.

K-Bay Trio Winners

In Skiing - Boating

At Statewide Event Three members of K-Bay's

Globe & Anchor Water Skiing Club were among the winners of the Annual Hawaii water skiing and boat racing tournament last Sunday at Sand Island.

Dave Packer, veteran K-Bay skier, won first place in the 20- mile men's race.

Miss Cecele Campbell, also of the Globe & Anchor Club, won second place in the women's 10- mile race. This was quite a feat, in view of the fact that the 16- year -old girl began water skiing only three months ago. The other K-Bay winner was

Sonny Vogel who, with Jim Ben- son of the Hickam club, piloted a "Powercat" for the second place award in the motorboat racing event. The Powercat is powered by twin 280 h.p. Mercury engines.

SLATE "TURKEY SHOOT" AT RANGES SUN. NOON

Everyone - ladies and gentle- men, boys and girls - has been invited to participate in the Ka- neohe Marine Rifle and Pistol Club's "Turkey Shoot" this Sun- day.

Starting time is 12 noon. A number of events are on the agenda, including pistol, rifle and shotgun firing contests. Club officials pointed out that

novice shooters have as much chance of taking home a turkey, or a ham, as do the expert shots.

Firing will be done at covered targets and the winners won't be known until the firing is fin- ished and the cover removed. The shooter whose hit is nearest, or on, the turkey marker on the tar- get will get the bird (or ham). A shootoff will be held in case of ties.

A one dollar entry fee is charged for each event to help defray the cost of the turkeys and hams. Weapons and ammunition will be furnished.

In past Turkey Shoots spon- sored by the Club, some of the winning hits have been those the Lathest away from the bull's eye. A Club spokesman claims that anyone who can hit the target has an opportunity to shoot a winner.

H-M FIVE WINS; PLAY SATURDAY

By Sgt. Bill Stuckey

Showing true championship form, the Hawaii Marines "poured on the coals" last weekend to de- feat the Mutual Express squad 89-76 and smother the Admirals from Pearl Harbor, 95-57. ,

Currently the locals are rid- ing along in third place in the Hawaii Armed Forces Invita- tional Basketball League be- hind front-runner, SubPac, and the All-Navy champs of 1959- 60, SerPac. Their record for the campaign now stands at 4-2.

Behind for the first 35 minutes of the game with Mutual, the scarlet and gold clad Marines forged out front with five min- utes remaining and were never headed.

Mutual had their own troubles during the late stages of the game when two of their starters left the contest via the foul route.

Showing the over-all balance of scoring power that has been their forte this season the locals finished strong with the entire first five scoring in the double figures.

Cozel Walker led the parade with 23 points and was followed by Ron Johnston 18, Jack Chas- tain 16, Dave Smalley 15, and Bill Shuman 12. At half time the civilian Mutual

Express team was out front, 39- 34.

On Saturday night at spacious Bloch Arena the "situation was well in hand" from the opening whistle to the last basket.

Coach Harley Grant's boys

jumped (AC to an 11-1 lead after three minutes and were never headed, rolling to a 95-57 massa- cre.

The starting team played only the first 10 minutes with the re- serves taking over at this point to riddle the weak Admiral de- fense.

Three Leathernecks were tied for top-scoring honors. Bill Shu- man, Cozel Walker and Jim Carnes all pumped in 13 points each. Ron Johnston scored 10 markers while he was in the gr:.ne. All of the Marines broke into the scoring column.

The half time score left no doubt as to who the winner would eventually be. When the rest period commenced the score was Marines, 56, and Pearl Har- bor, 23.

Tomorrow evening at Hangar 103, Kaneohe Bay Marine Corps Air Station, the Marines play host to the Mutual team and next Tues- day night take the long trip to Barber's Point to meet Naval Air. All games start at 8 o'clock.

With the conclusion of Satur- day's game with the Admirals the Hawaii Marines have now com- pleted the first of five rounds of play in the Hawaii Armed Forces Invitational Basketball League.

Last night's HM-ServPac bas- ketball game here was a "Toys for Tots" benefit contest. K-Bay- ites who missed the game but who desire to contribute toys to the drive may do so by placing them in barrels which have been placed throughout the Station.

BASKETBALL LOG Six-game totals thus far are indicated below:

Service Battalion, the only un- defeated team in the Brigade- Station eight-man football tourna- ment, is still leading the pack with four wins and no losses. In a non-league contest last week, Coach Frank Gallagher's power- house kept its record completely unblemished by whipping Hickam, 40-12.

The ServBn squad will go into action next Thursday in a 2 p.m. Thanksgiving Day contest against 1/4 at Follock Field here. In last Thursday's Marine Corps

Birthday Anniversary game at Pollock, 1/4 bowed to 2/4 on a 24-18 score.

Another B-S contest resulted in the 3/12 Cannoneers downing MCAS, 18-0. The Station squad has suffered four defeats in the league without breaking into the win column.

The Pearl Harbor Admirals de- feated the Separate Companies grid squad in a non-league game last Friday night at Ward Field. SepCo's. like MCAS, has not had a win so far this season.

Results of Wednesday night's 2/4-MCAS and last night's 3/12- MAG-13 game were not available at presstime. The outcome of these two contests will be carried in next week's WINDWARD MA- RINE.

Tonight at Pollock Field, 1/4 will battle SepCo's.

Change Brigade Special Services offi-

cials announced this week that the ServBn-Camp Smith game, originally scheduled for Dec. 9 at Pollock Field, will not be played here.

Instead, the game between the two top teams will be played Dec. 10 in Hilo for a benefit. Should the results of the hassle have any bearing on the B-S grid championship, it will be rescheduled here for a later date. If the results of the game at Hilo do not affect the championship, the game will be recorded as a regular league contest.

3/12 Triumphs The 3/12 Cannoneers :wiped

keep MCAS in the losing column by defeating the Station eight- man squad, 18-0.

In the first quarter, Station had the 3/12 grid battery worried by charges within yards of the Can- noneer goal. On both attempts,

however, the 3/12 squad thwarted the attack.

After the first frame, the Can- noneers started rolling with a touchdown in each of the remain- ing quarters.

Larry Mears, a 3/12 halfback, took the pigskin for an eight-yard line run for six points in the sec- ond stanza.

In the third quarter, Mears re- peated with a scoring plunge from about the two-yard line.

A fourth quarter pass from Can- noneer quarterback Clark to end Simon from the MCAS 40 ac- counted for the final dix points.

Despite Station's threats early in the game, the 3/12 defense proved highly effective as the opposition was unable to move more than a few yards on any one play. The Cannoneers were also bard -

hit by penalties on four occasions when touchdown plays were re- turned because of penalties. The 3/12 squad also played the game with five of its starting players sidelined because of injuries.

Wednesday night, 3/12 plays SepCo's at Pollock Field.

SepCo's Lose In a game last Friday night at

Ward Field, the Pearl Harbor Ad- mirals nosed out SepCo's on a wet field, 12-10.

In the first quarter, SepCo's scored two points on a safety against the Navy. The Admirals, however, came back to score two touchdowns in the second frame.

Sep Co's quarterback Gene Whitten collected six points on an end run on the Admirals' one- yard line in the third quarter. Whitten also added two points on another end run.

ServBn Whips Hickam Undefeated ServBn unleashed

its pigskin steamroller again last Friday to smother the Hickam Flyers, 40-12. Although the game was outside the Brigade-Station eight-man football loop and would have no effect on the K-Bay in- tramural standings, Couch Frank Gallagher proved that his squad is one of the best on the island.

In the game at Pollock Field here, ServBn opened the attack with a drive after receiving the kickoff. Elvis Bippus took the ball over from the Flyers' three - yard line for the first touch- down. The try for extra points failed. Bippus again scored in the same

frame on a 25-yard end run. Again, ServBn's try for extra points failed.

The Hickam crew hustled in the second quarter and scored twice; once on a long pass and then on a ground drive. Hickam also failed to make good on extra points and the score stood at 12-12 at half- time.

Jack Huebschman put the score- keeper to work in the third stanza when he scored on a 23-yard running play and then took the sphere over again for two more points.

In the same frame, Bippus made a 35-yard trip for a touch- down. Huebschman carried the ball over for an additional two points. Huebschman further demoral-

ized the Hickam gridders with another touchdown on an end run. The try for extra point was un- successful.

In the final quarter, ServBn broke out its "Tom-Tom" combi- nation for another touchdown. It was Tom Holmes' pass-about 50 yards-to teammate Tom Curran to add another six points. Serv- Bn's Huebschman took the pig- skin over for the additional two points and the final score of the game.

ServBn next goes into action against 1/4 in a 2 p.m. Thanks- giving Day game here at Pollock Field.

2/4 Wins Last Thursday, in the Marine

Corps Birthday Anniversary game at Pollock Field, 2/4 defeated 1/4 in an afternoon contest, 24-16.

Fans saw 1/4 open the game with a stellar 33-yard touchdown run by Joe Fiorentino. Two more points were garnered by Fiorentino, who took the ball over for the extra score.

The offensive then went to 2/4 in the opening quarter as Coach Tom Pratt's gridders were all the way down into 1/4 territory. Bill Branner took the pigskin over for 2/4's first score of the game, The try for extra points failed.

In the second quarter, 1/4 threatened the opposition with a drive that was stopped at the 2/4 five-yard line.

In the same frame, 2/4 un- leashed its powerhouse in a drive that culminated in a touchdown by tailback Fred Leonard who toted the ball 25 yards for pay- dirt. Again 2!4's bid for extra points failed. The score at half- time showed 2/4 ahead, 12-8.

Action in the third quarter was limited to a stalemate as both teams sea-sawed up and down the field, harrassed by intermit- tent rains.

In the fourth stanza, 2/4's Mike Williams shot a long pass to end Jim Wellborn who toted the pigskin over for a touch- down. Once more the try for extra points by 2/4 was un- successful. With about four minutes left

to play, 2/4's Branner intercepted a pass and his team was on the offensive again, The final 2/4 touchdown was made on a pass from Williams to Lou Dougherty. Again the try for extra points failed.

In the final minutes of the game, 1/4 pulled a long pass and scored a touchdown. L. V. Burns fired the ball to Raskiewsz for the score. A drive by Bob Hogaboom added two more points to the loser's score,

Odd-Ball Family's Antics Basis Of Comedy Show

"You Can't Take It With You," the hilarious antics of an odd-ball family in New York, will one- night-stand at Station Theater No. 1 Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m.

The show, presented by the Hickam Theater Guild, is an adaptation of the highly suc- cessful play written by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman.

Want To Join Cubs? Eligible Youths Can

Hey, kids! Wondering how you can join the Cub Scouts?

Chaplain James W. Conte, Cub Publicity Chairman, says that you are eligible if you really want to become a Cub Scout, you have reached your eighth birthday, and, your parents are willing to work along with you. He stated that merely attending a meeting every fourth Monday was not enough.

If. you're interested, call Mr. Shanks at 253333.

The comedy plot deals with the Vanderhof family who live just around the corner from Columbia University. When the show opens the scene is the living room but, as the family admits, the room should be called "an every-man- for-himself-room."

From Grandpa Vanderhof down, the family consists of in- dividualists ranging from an easy - going, come - what - may grandfather to a deposed grand duchess, once a cousin to the Czar of All Russia, and today a waitress at Child's Restaurant. Special Services officials an-

nounced this week that no admis- sion would be charged for this rollicking comedy. It was also an- nounced that no movie would be held at Theater No. One on Tues- day evening because of the length of the Stage Show. The normally scheduled Tuesday movie will be shown at Theater No. 2 on Wednesday night.
