James Campbell, tool repair, has found it necessary to tie his home down to a half a dozen trees and then still keeps his fingers crossed that it won't be swooshed away by the mad waters of the Ogden river. With water and through feet deep swirling furiously around three and one-ha- lf his newly remodeled home located in Ogden canyon, Campbell could see he had to do something to help hold it. Campbell appealed to Hill AFB for help, and got it, Charles Pfeiffer, general superintendent of mainteinch steel cable and nance, gave him permission to use 230 feet of of to with. With four the tools work friends, (who took help necessary annual leave to assist) Lem Rollow and Lee Weeks from Camera repair, Bill Webb from tool repair and Bob Christofferson, accessories repair, he tied the cables completely around the house and anchored it to seven trees. GENTLE PEOPLE When four workers from, the reclamation section at Hill AFB were sent on detached service to a "little town of only 400 people in the wilds of Colorado, they all came back with a warm spot in their hearts for the AND invitations in their pockets to return again for some little town Walter Anderson, Charles Appleby, Victor Jenson and fishing. hunting and Gerald Douglas from reclamation were recently dispatched to the little town of Norwood, Colorado (located 70 miles north of Grand Junction) with a wrecker and trailer to pick up an 1 area aircraft which had crashed in the mountains of that vicinity. What would have been a difficult job was made much lighter when the townspeople came through with a hearty welcome and a helping hand. They donated equipment so that a road could be cut into the timber to retrieve the plane, furnished labor and timbers and ribbing to aid in moving and loading the aircraft. Food, blankets and a pistol for guard duty were furnished by the town marshal. They insisted on giving all this help without thought of being repaid. Needless to say, these four are looking forward to some hunting and fishing this summer in the friendly little town of Norwood. PLAY BALL!

This week Lillie Zito, stat services, was presented a season's pass for nominating the final winner of the contest Lurlien Morris (the new Mrs. Joe Florence.) Frank L. Johnsen picked up the pass for 19 personnel of the Inventory Branch who submitted the name of Hill's other winner, Jean Palmer. Inasmuch as the whole section nominated Jean, persons in that section will take turns using the pass.
