Show Language Experts Mslie Air Arrivals Welcome To U.S. ' iff.- - -.. '-, - ' '; ' ."LA GUARDIA FIELD, N; Y. y.R The message ran this way: - "Aboard flite 101 stop woman aged 84 comma unable write read peaking Slovenian only stop kindly take care." The cable . came from : Pan American World Airways in Vienna. A few months ago, the message might have caused a flurry of concern, but today it, and dozens of similar "advisories," "ad-visories," are taken in stride. The line's new special services unit is on the job, ready to greet inbound in-bound passengers in any of 22 different languages, ranging from Danish to Hindustani. Twenty-three accomplished linguists, lin-guists, many of them natives of Europe and South America, make up the special services unit. Together To-gether they provide a round-the-clock staff of interpreters at La Guardia Field's international terminal. ter-minal. Guidance Given Non-English - speaking travel ers, arriving in New York by Clipper, may look for guidance through public health, immigra- . tion and customs, and for assist ance in changing money, trans lating messages, and making hotel or travel arrangements. The organizer of the special service is Charles- W. Rinka. American-born son of Lithuanian parents, Rinka speaks six langu ases fluently English, Lithuan ian, Polish, German, Russian and French. During the war he was a staff interpreter with the Sixth Armored division in Europe. - Roy Kershis, bom in Latvia, can't count all his languages on the fingers of both hands. He has a fluent command of eight tongues English, German, French. Russian, Rus-sian, Polish, Latvian, Czech and Ukrainian and can "get by" in Lithuanian, Estonian, Serbian and any other Slavic language. , John Vahey, a Dublin lad who can switch from Gaelic to Hindustani Hindu-stani without pausing for breath, is another versatile member of Pan American's language team. . He spoke Gaelic throughout his years in school, and learned Hindustani Hin-dustani in Calcutta during three and , one-half years spent flying RAF planes between India, Burma, Bur-ma, Malaya and the Dutch East Indies. War Brides Cared For The distaff side handles its share of special service, with particular par-ticular attention to the hundreds of German and Austrian war brides and fiancees landing for the first time in their new homeland. home-land. Lya Balas, a German frau-lein frau-lein who formerly danced in the ballet at the Frankfurt Opera House, combines German with flawless English. So does Mrs. Lottie Thompson, daughter of Russian and German parents and wife of a Royal Navy officer, who! broadcast to the German army during the war as a sort of ."British Tokyo Rose." Francois Mlcha, a Swiss who speaks seven languages, ahd his Peruvian wife. Gaby, are special services' own international family team. A distinguished newcomer 'to the unit is Alexander Hess, one-time ace Czech flyer and commander of the first Czech RAF fighter squadron, who speaks Czech, English, French and German Ger-man fluently and has a working knowledge of Polish, Serbocroa-tlan Serbocroa-tlan and Russian. Two French mademoiselles black-haired Claudie Renault and blonde Francoise Patry lend Parisian chic to the language group, and the Spanish-Portuguese contingent is headed by Raul Lombardo, who speaks Spanish at home with his Cuban parents, and Thomas Stanley Rodriguez Luciano, whose family came from Madrid.

Lyman, who is traveling from Millard county to Salt Lake City. They have camped in the snow, Eliza and her daughter Carlie in the wagon, the boys of the family under a cedar tree.) Feb. 8, 1878 The night was very cold and still. Not a sound, except the horses moving about in the snow. It was the stillness of Death. No living thing was near us, and dismal was the night, but morning brought warm sun to cheer us. We felt more encouraged. encour-aged. After making a hasty toilet, we started again on our journey through Unbroken snow. After traveling a few miles we came to a road that was broke. We passed through Eureka and Ho-mansville, Ho-mansville, then down a most dismal dis-mal canyon, then'up the west side of Utah lake and stopped, at the home of a Danish man named Hanson, where we had the privilege priv-ilege of sitting by a fire, and making mak-ing our bed in the house which was quite a blessing as the weather weath-er was very cold indeed. Feb. 11 Went to Cottonwood and camped by a house. It rained all night. The boys were quite wet as they slept without a wagon cover. , Feb. 12 We started for Salt Lake again. Arrived about noon, having been in a snow storm all day. Found my sister Emily Young and family well and pleas ed to see us. Bro. T. Callister called on us in the evening. Feb. 13-Went down town and made a few purchases. Feb. 14 Went to the Endow ment House and saw my daughter Carlie sealed as wife to Bro. T. Callister. Took supper with Sister Bathsheba Smith and her boarders. board-ers. After supper I went to my sister Emily's. (This is the first hint we have had that Callister and Carlie had any intention of being married, though he and his wife Helen have been frequent visitors.) Feb. 15 1878 Went down town Took dinner with Sister B. Smith. at Bro. Joseph F. Smith's. We had an excellent supper, and very pleasant time. Present: Bro. J. F. Smith and his three wives, Bro.

Call at Liberty i d27 Cafe, Nazi Nuernberg Again Enjoying Taste Of Life NUERNBERG (U.R) Night life for the Germans has returned to Nuernberg. After three bleak years when all the lights in the town were turned off early, and the only alcoholic beverage on sale was watered beer, this one-time center cen-ter of Nazi party gaiety is coming back into its own. Three night clubs, featuring tea dances three afternoons . a week and dining, wining and dancing nightly, are operating, j They all observe -11 o'clock closing hours, ordered by the Nuernberg military post, but from early evening until that hour, champagne flows and the Ger man DiacK marxei operators na their girl friends, mostly secretaries secre-taries in American, military installations, in-stallations, whoop - it up. Food Is Scarce The operators and successful business men are the only ones who" can afford the night club prices. The food is excellent: stuffed goose, fancy fish, potatoes, soup and salads. Wild venison and tough veal and "beefsteaks also are served. No ration points are asked. Americans have taken to patronizing pat-ronizing the clubs, some of which are in the basements or ground floors of still bombed-out buildings. build-ings. . Likewise, stores have opened up. In the Bahnof, small shops are featuring leather goods, porcelain, por-celain, clothing material-, shoes anything one could want if they have enough money to pay for it, which most of the Germans Ger-mans haven't. Travel Easier Traveling used to be a horror, with hundreds of hungry - Germans Ger-mans going into the country to forage for food, jammed into the railway cars like cattle. Now it has become a pleasure. There are few passengers. Few can afford to travel, since railroad rail-road prices have not come down. Diners have been opened on most trains, with good food at fairly reasonable prices, but still out of reach of the pocketbook of the average German. Vegetable and fruit stands have opened up all over town. They are on every corner, with farmers farm-ers eagerly seeking to sell cucumbers, cu-cumbers, tomatoes, p o tatoes, plums, all kinds of fresh fruit and vegetables, for pennies. It has all come about since currency reform. The ordinary German is certainly much better off than he was during the first three years after the war. The food is there for him to buy. If after he has bought his rationed food, paid the rent ahd his light and gas bills . and has a few marks left over, he can buy something some-thing with it. People Better Off Before, there was nothing for him to buy with the few miserable miser-able marks he had left over. Everything was sold under the counter for blacket market goods cigarettes, sugar and coffee. In pre-currency reform days, a German eagerly sought cigarettes cigar-ettes for a tip. Today, he prefers pfennigs and marks for tips. Many Americans have said they would like to have part of their salary paid to them in marks, but not at the legal 30 cent rate. The value of the mark to an American still is 10 cents.
