K-BAY KIBITZER' by Bradley

The English Certainly do have a sense of humor all their own. The other night I caught a late show on television. It was one of

those jewels that I suspect couldn't make out anywhere else. Arneri can TV must be the oerfect answer for producers who fail to prod.,:e saleable screen gems.

each other on a murder story. At least I think that's what it was all

about. It turns out the reporters themselves are involved. Finally the ace murder reporter for one paper gets assigned to the

story. I watched as he got progressively drunker and weaved from

place to place. Finally he writes an exclusive for one of the papers

and has it delivered. It was just incidental, I suppose, that he did his

writing in a nightery when he was so smashed he could hardly walk.

They neverdid show what the writing looked like.

But the point of this whole thing is that the ending is so British. The

reporter throws himself in front of a subway train. Final scene is a

city room. There is high feeling about the reporter's story-confession. A gent comes in and announces that the police have just reported a man killed by a subway train. Identification papers found on the

body showed him to be the reporter. Fred C. Evans. The editor looks

at the men clustered around his desk and says: "Poor old Freddie, he

never would fell us what the 'C' stood for." End of movie.

I suppose some readers-and I hope there are a few-may have

wondered why this column contains so much about Hawaii. I think

the answer is very simple. In the past sixteen years I have travelled very

nearly around the world. I have been in something like two dozen

countries. I have covered over 200,000 miles by sea (or thereabouts), touching at ports to the east and west, north and south. Al! of these

places were interesting, some positively fascinating. Each had its own

peculiar attraction. But I have never found anyplace that seemed to offer as much

beauty, as much variety, as perfect a climate or as friendly a people as Hawaii.

So I write about Hawaii really for two reasons. First, I hope that a

few words in this column will make it possible for more Marines and their families to develop an awareness of the treasure about them before they leave.

The second reason is personal. Each day I add something new to my treasury of memories, perhaps a fragment of conversation, a new association or the vision of beauty woven of clouds and mountains and sea. Some things I can capture on film.

But there is so much left over that I fear I shall lose. I hope that in

writing I shall capture a little more of Hawaii permanently and that, more important, I shall sharpen further my perception and apprecia- tion, my awareness. Like anything else, it gets better with use.

Here's a -for instance.- Last week I was enjoying a luncheon con- versation with a very gracious lady. She mentioned that when she first arrived in the islands, she knew that the preceding occupant of her house thought the view toward the mountains the most fascinating of the several scenes visible to those blessed with a panorama of sea

and sky and island. At first, however, the mountains appeared much like any other

mountains and it was the constantly changing sea that played upon her senses. Gradually, this perceptive lady realized that the real drama of co-stant change was, indeed, in the opposite direction. The fact that the mountains now have the most appeal for her is really unim- portant. What counts is that her awareness has been developed to the point where she may really enjoy one of the blessings of duty in Hawaii.

I'm lucky enough to live right on the beach. From my front windows I can watch the clouds form and change shape as they sail majestically toward Oahu. There is one that looks like a pure white poodle dog sitting on her hind legs begging for another morsel. Or perhaps the day brings mostly plain puffs of cotton.

Then I can find diversion and relaxation in the sea where change is forever. Shadow ships sail right up to my door across a calm, barely rippled lake. There are, of course, real ships that pass, too. The majes- tic Lurline with its cargo of human lives sometimes catches my eye. When a storm brews, giant combers break on the reef and send lesser offspring crashing on the beach with a rhythmic pounding that brings relaxing sleep at the flick of a mental switch.

From a side window, I can always find the mountains with their fluted cliffs ringing the threshhold of beach. Sometimes they stand out in bold relief, crystal clear and much closer than usual. The ragged ramparts of the Koolaus watch over me. Other times the same ram- parts are tipped with wispy clouds, some of them briefly entangled in a baft!ement until the wind strips them away and sends them on to Honolulu.

Even in the fury of a storm, the beauty of unpredictable nature is not lost upon me.

Rarely do I feel the need for a change of scenery. But when I d: there is enougn variety in these islands to hold me for more than rn,, life span, am sure. Since I know that I must one day leave, I am trying to capture as much of it as possible right now. I am thankful for the opportunity to visit here and for all that I have been able to see and enjoy.

But, above all, I am thankful for awareness that makes it possible.

Kekaha Audiences Cheer D&B Corps

The audiences at Kekaha on July 4th were very enthusiastic" MSgt. George D. Durham Jr.. Band Direc- tor. said Monday in describing the visit of the 1st Marine Brigade Drum and Bugle Corps to Kauai.

The Brigade unit played first in the Indeperigence Day parade in Kailua and flew to Kauai in the afternoon. It played at a carnival in Kekaha and then before about 2.50(, persons who had come to witness the dedication of their new swimming pool. The musical fare was so en- tertaining that the band was held o:er for 20 minutes of encore music at the latter occasion.

The next morning, ALF, Bon- ham was treated to a surprise when the Drum and Bugle Corps played the color ceremony. The Navy detachment escorted mem- bers on a sightseeing trip of Kau- ai. before the Corps embarked aboard aircraft for the return trip to K-Bay.

In Honolulu. last Saturday, the unit played the first engagement of its type at the Waikiki Shell for a Cerebral Palsy show. Amid the fanfare of selecting Miss Universe and Mr. Armed Forc- es. the Drum and Bugle Corps played selections ranging from "rock and roll" to "Aloha Oe."

HANG Appreciation

Recorded in letter

Sent to Air Station A letter of appreciation was

sent recently to Col. Jack R: Cram, CO. MCAS. from Col. Valentine A.

Siefermann. Chief of Air Staff, Ha- waii Air National Guard. The let- ter concerned the recently conclud- ed annual summer training of the Air Guard which was conducted at K-Bay.

The letter is quoted as follows: ..I wish to express my apprecia-

tion for the assistance and cooper- ation extended by members of your Command to the Hawaii Air National Guard during 24 and 25 June 1957. An Operational Readi- ness Inspection of the 199th Fight- er Interceptor Squadron was con- ducted during this period. v.hich required pre-dawn take-offs and non-standard messing hours, in ad- dition to intensive flying activities.

"The arrangements made by the Station S-3 Office 4 Major J. V. Hanes in particular) in providing Control Tower and GCA facilities by 0430. and in extending the sta- tion messing hours, contributed much to the successful accomplish- ment of the ORI.

Our expression of appreciation is extended to all of your person- nel who assisted in this effort."

In his endorsement to the letter which was sent to departments Col. Cram said "Please add my ap- reciation to that expressed by Colonel Siefermann It is always a source of great satisfaction to a Commanding Officer to receive such noteworthy comments from an of- ficer of another armed service."

Marines. Complete Maneuvers During Nevada Atomic Tests

Maneuvers for 2,100 Marines of the Fourth Marine Corps Provisional Atomic Exercise Brigade held al

the Nevada Test Site ended at I :00 p.m. last Friday. Detonation of the highest yield atomic device as yes

fired by the Atomic Energy Commission in the continental United States at 4:40 a.m. marked the begin.

ning of the exercise. Asked to comment on the Marine participation, Brig. Gen. Harvey C. Tschirgi,

gade Commanding General, said "I think this was an extremely worthwhile exercise in these days wilts1

atomic weapons are part of our arsenal. We are learning to use them."

Crouched in five and a half foot deep trenches 5,700 yards from ground zero the Marines witnessed the detonation of the sixth experi- mental atomic device fired at the test site this summer. The device, named "Hood," was suspended from a 75-foot balloon 1500 feet above Yucca Flat. Immediately after the detonation

field monitoring teams checked the area fo: radiation as the Marines It a ited outside trenches for the clearance to begin their "vertical envelopment" exercise held in con- junction with the test.

Blast from the detonation caused cave-ins in a few of the trenches, but with no reported injuries to men in the trenches.

Heat from the explosion caused numerous small fires in the vicinity of the trenches and larger fires in the surrounding countryside.

Upon receiving radiological-safe clearance. helicopter borne troops were landed in the zones from which they launched their assaults one hour and 44 minutes after the explosion. The landing zones and objective areas were removed some distance from the site of the blast for safety reasons. As hell-teams moved into the ob-

jective area, one company of Ma- rives boarded LVTP5's, amphibi- ous personnel carriers. to make a

;nal:up. Included in this assault force were five Ontos, the new, highly mobile. tracked anti-tank

!weapon. Twenty-four F9F jet aircraft

from VMA-223, Third Marine Air- craft Wing. Marine Corps Air Sta- tion, El Toro, Calif, provided close air support for the ground troops and air cover for the helicopters during maneuvers.

The 30 helicopters used in the troop lifting operation and for the rad-safe teams were from Air Group 36. Marine Corps Air Facil- ity, Santa Ana. Calif.

The field exercise is a part of Defense Department participa- tion in the current series of atom- ic weapons tests being conducted by the Nevada Test Organization. The nucleus of troops who par-

ticipated in the field exercise crams from the 2nd Bn.. 5th Marines. 1st Marine Division. The battalion con- sisted of four reinforced rifle com- panies and a battery of artillery.

NERVE CENTER-Capt. Clarke A. Rhykerd, left, and Lt. Jerry Hauer are shown in the nerve center of the Direct Air Support Cents.

from Marine Air Support Squadron Three, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing

This small mobile unit controlled Marine Corps jets and helicopters

during full scale atomic exercises conducted last Friday at the Nevada

Test Site at Yucca Hats. The center maintained constant air suppor and shuttling service for assaulting infantrymen of the Fourth Marini Corps Provisional Atomic Exercise Brigade during the maneuver.

Varsity Swimmers Pace Qualifiers In 9th Keo Nakama Championships

Facing a host of seasoned Olympic and collegiate performers, 14 Hawaii Marine mermen stroked their way into 24 qualifying spots in the Senior Men's division and gained 28 finalist positions in the Junior events as the 9th Annual Keo Nakama Invitational Swimming and Diving Championships got underway at the Waikiki War Me- morial Natatorium last weekend, July 5 and ,.

Stellar performances by all of the Leatherneck competitors reached a thrilling climax when the "A" 400 meter freestyle re- lay team comprised of Sgt Bob Axt, Sgt. Clarence Holt. Sgt. Iwao "Streets" Shimizu, and Pfc. John Manion set a new Hawai- ian Island standard of 4:17.1 to lead all other team entries in this Junior division event. A lifetime best was achieved by

Pfc Manion when he narrowly mis- sed nen Harrison's ngwoil Marine mark of 2 :22.2 in the 200 meter freestyle. Manion splashed home first in the trials with the fastest qualifying time of 2.22.8.

Sgt. Shimizu, veteran Hawaii Marine distance ace, paced three Leatherneck qualifiers in the Sen- ior Men's 400 meter freestyle as he set a new local Marine standard of 5:17.1. Shimizu smashed his own record of 5:17.8 which he set in this event ear- lier this year. This feat by the locals' distance

star is actually a treater improve- ment than the time indicates be- cause the length of the Natatorium

pool is twice that of the Enlisted Men's pool here at K-Bay, causing much more difficulty for the swim- mer.

As only two Marines were not eligible to swim their special- ties In the Junior division of this meet, swimmer-coach Capt. Ivar Svenson has definitely pointed his mermen toward a victory in this division. While many Leath- erneck tankmen qualified in both Senior and Junior division events, the Junior title is the primary goal of the squad. Each of the 14 Marines entered

in the Junior bracket qualified in at least one event while some have gained places in two and three events.

The finals of the Nakama Invi- tational got underway yesterday and will run through today, tomor- row. and Sunday. July 11-14. See Sports Calendar on P-5 for times.

The first of a proposed series of rifle matches was held at the MCAS

1 rifle range June 30. The range rang to the crack of rifles. ac- companied by the intermittent wind and rain.

In spite of the adverse weather conditions some excellent beginner's scores were turned in. The first place award fell to Sgt. L. J. Wilger who recorded a mark of 256x300 Cpl. R. D. Kaufman was second with a 254x300 followed by the third place wirer. Cpl. D. R. Fields who shot an identical score as Cpl. Kaufman.

Kaufman and Fields shot a close match all the way back but Kaufman pulled it out on the 500 yard line with a 90x100 as com- pared to Fields' 88x100.

Much credit must be given to the other participants for the pressure they put on the winning shooters. We hope to have all you other shooters out to fire with us more often.

Another match is tentatively scheduled for July 28 and all "weekend" shooters are encour- aged to come out and try their skill at pinwheeling the bull.

high school graduation certifi- cate from the Territorial Depart- ment of Public Instruction. . .

The large number enrolled in Lae

Kailua school is credited to the cooperation of school officials in

arranging class dates to avoid con-

flict with Brigade training sched- ules.

At the University of Hawaii 83

members of the Brigade took 1U

evening courses during the Spring semester. Ninety have enrolled in the Summer session and will

take 121 courses. These courses are mainly first and second year academic courses. Another contributing factor tc

the large attendance at local edu- cational institutions is government transportation provided from the Station to and from schools. The assistance and encouragement unit commanding officers has aaa been a strong factor in producing the high rate of participation in all

areas of off-duty education
