They have adopted 9-year-old Kim Sun Chung whose mother and father were killed by North Koreans somewhere in the battle area. A few weeks ago he was found by the marines sitting under a bridge near Pusan. He was dirty and ragged, rag-ged, but he was not crying. Korean children rarely cry. The marines outfitted him with a green T-shirt, cut-down trousers and got him a pair of shoes but they were too big. So now he goes around barefooted. At first Kim was fed only rice, the traditional Korean sta; le, but his diet has been gradually changed chang-ed to regular marine food Now Kim won't eat rice any more. He goes through the chow line and like the other marines eats cereal, grapefruit, bacon and eggs. Then he puts his mess gear through three cans of boiling water, just like the others. Thousands of Korean boys and girls have been made orphans in the war, but Kim is one of the few who have a new home, a foster father, three meals a day and a place to sleep. During an interview with a war correspondent he was rather quiet, but when Kim is alone with Private Marvin E. Younger of Dixon. 111., who found him, he sometimes talks of Tarzan and the jungle boy evidently evi-dently he had seen them in the movies mov-ies when he was living at home with his parents. Kim likes Americans and Private Younger would like to take him back to the United States when the war is over. But those who know the technical difficulties think it will not happen. It is going to be tough on Kim, they say, when the Marines have to leave him behind LINCOLN Mrs. M. D. Wallace The program in MIA Meeting Tuesday evening was given by the Music Dept.
