Keith Hebertson as he peered peer-ed through his - transit onto a distant hiil. Becoming curious at his sergeant's comment, Lt. Sterling Ster-ling Strate took a look at the 'strange bird.' "That's not a bird. It's a giraffe' expertly commented com-mented the lieutenant. That just started it. "We went for a long ride,' said Sgt. Ralph Paxman, "but We jdidn't go for that long a ride." Well, it was a. giraffe and they weren't in the city zoo. They were on Hearst ranch property near San Simeon, California. The giraffe gir-affe was just the first of the unusual un-usual animals seen on this 'jungle jaunt.' That evening the rest of the boys aw, from outside the fenced reservation mountain goats jumping jump-ing around the rocky ledges, kangaroos, camels and the rare "white albino deer from India. Claudell Empey, who was in the reconnaissance party,' claims that he saw a herd of llama, and a herd of zebra. That night in bed all of the boys saw pink elephants.

The Fourth of July was over, (yes, definitely).

We were all pleased with the results of our efforts when we saw the throng of happy children waving tiny American flags which they had received m their surprise bags of candy. A clever program was followed By a merry round ox stage contests, and then the var ious age groups participated in the relays and distance runs. Many worthwhile prizes were distributed to the victors. An by the way, folks, some hot afternoon when you have plenty of time, try a bottle of your favorite soda pop-a-la-nippte.
