By ('pl. Edward Bomar

July Water Show Queen Test Opens

Planning for the July 15-16 Navy Relief Society Water Carni- val roared into high gear this past week as LtCol. W. L. Tray- nor, director for the two-day program, held a number of meet- ings to map details with Station and Brigade officials.

The Carnival Queen contest got underway when the Sta- tion's Headquarters and Head- quarters Squadron entered the first unit representative -Miss Peni Sedgensick - in the quest to locate a beauty to reign over the water show. The queen will be designated

by a penny-per-vote balloting conducted during the entire month of June. All battalions and squadrons are expected to enter beauties in the contest. The pen- nies ,collected from the queen voting will be lumped into the

Bring Back Books! Library Now Open

Station Library officials expressed concern this week over the failure of K-Bayites to return books on time.

Reasoning that many "borrow- ers" considered the Library closed due to the recent move to Bldg, 219, they emphasized the fact that the Library is open and is in operation from 8 a.in. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday. No weekend hours are in force as Yet, pending the completion of renovation.

One dozen concession booths will be manned for the water carnival. The food and drink stands will feature hamburgers, hot dogs, cold sandwiches, beer and soft drinks. The labor force to staff these concessions will be recruited from on-station units to eliminate overhead expense and insure that all profit from each sale will revert to the NR Society.

The mid-July Water Carnival will be open to the general public without admission cost.

dleton the deployed 4th Marine Regiment battalion left no doubt in the minds of 1st Division troopers that they too, were as combat ready as their California "cousins."

stage the Hawaii Marines had taken more than 150 prisoners- including two battalion commanders - and an entire platoon caught in their sleeping bags during a surprise night raid by Delta Company.

"Killed" the division staff in a surprise "breakfast" raid.

"Destroyed" missile emplace- ments, aircraft and supply centers, then fought their way back through enemy lines to their own positions - losing only one platoon as prisoners in the entire maneuver.

As dictated by Green Light rules, the Hawaii Marines with- drew slowly along ridges flanking the four canyons through which the Division advanced. Each hill was held until umpires decided that it had been taken by a su- perior force of enemy troops.

Learning A Language Getting maximum value out of our possessions is some-

thing we take for granted as being simple good sense. We don't discard things that are useable; if we spend money we aim to get our money's worth; if we take a vacation we try to make the most of it in pleasure and relaxation.

But do we apply this eminently sensible yardstick to our overseas assignments where we enjoy unique oppor- tunities to enlarge our appreciation of other people and their ways" To take advantage of them to the utmost means hurdling the barrier of language-once that is down, person -to- person communication is feasible.

Today more than ever before, the simple tools to help us speak and read the languages of others are abundantly at our disposal. Correspondence courses, phonograph recordings, dictionaries, classes of group instruction-they are all available at military installations, and we are officially encouraged to make use of them.

To neglect to do so is really short-changing ourselves. Learning a language can be entertaining and stimulating, especially if it is done in a group. From fundamentals one proceeds to enlarge one's vocobulary and gain fluency of ex- pre:-Aott. It has the challenge of an adventure, for there is always a new avenue to explore, a new complexity to master.

The purely practical advantages of hi-lingual dexterity in our assignments abroad shouldn't be overlooked. Each of the seas ices today relies heavily on a local labor supply to maintain its overseas installations, and we work-often closely - kith civilians who may or may not have an adequate knowledge of our own language. If we can understand them, and make ourselves understood, the job gets done faster and better.

MAN OR BEAST? By Chaplain H. T .Kelly

A famous English playwright is said to have asked some friends one night: "A7e we going to drink like men or beasts?" "Like men, of course," the group shouted. "Then we are going to get roar- ing drunk," he said. "for beasts never drink more than they need!"

Nearly three times as many man-days are lost each year in America because of drinking as are lost through strikes. Every single day, throughout the United States, 175,000 men stay away from their jobs as a re- sult of drinking. That makes a total of 60 million man-days lost each year! In one year. drunken drivers killed almost 10,000 people and injured 340,- 000 more. Unfortunately, we have over-

emphasized alcohol in American life. Too often we wrap our entertainment around a Manhattan, think we cannot possibly have any fun without "a beer" in each hand, feel that a liberty would be completely wasted without a few "shots" to help "live it up." As someone put it, "How many Amer- icans have bookcases in their homes, we do not know, but we do know that more than enough have beercases."

Time and time again. after some accident or incident that has led to heartbreak or trag- edy, the ruin of a good name or career. the cause has been traced to the misuse of alcohol. Too late a man realises the im- port of the fact the ideal is to keep everything in its correct perspective: everything we do governed by reason, by an awareness of our responsibility, by a realization that we are here on earth, here in the Serv- ice, to serve God, our country and our fellow-men, not as animals, but as men. You may have failed at times

in the past. Time to start over and make a new future. You may have slipped a few times or frequently. Time to pick yourselves up. brush yourselves off, and stay sober. It has been well said: "Remem- ber, it is not the ice that makes one slip. but what is mixed with it!"

While we tend to "plug" the big special events at the Club, we hope you haven't forgotten the regular daily schedule. Lunch is served daily in the Dining Room from 11:30 until 1 o'clock. The Chefs serve a daily special, a wide variety of saiads, and roast beef and ham each day.

The best drinking on the Is- land is available at your 0' Club Bar. You can certainly get more for less! The Bar opens at 4 o'- clock Monday through Friday, and at 12 noon on Saturday and Sunday. In the near future, a soda dispenser will be installed in the Bar. This is something new which a lot of other military clubs have already tried and find successful. The Bar Special is a double martini or manhattan.

Remember to make reserva- tions for dinner at the Club. It will enable us to serve you better, and it may save you time.

By GYSGT. JACK T. PAXTON

Good Morning, To You - Capt. Dave Townsend, Assistant Special Services Officer, notes with alarm that the "good cheer" affably dis- pensed by the Main Gate sentries is being accepted all too casually by most motorists - and he's right! At very few Marine posts and stations do you find Gate sentries saluting women all women, not just the ones sporting "white" tags. You'll rarely pass through the Gate without receiving a cheery "good morning," etc., regardless of the time of day. As the captain points out, this should be a "two-way street." Make an effort to return this salutation or, like the sign we once saw. said: "If you can't stop, at least smile as you go by!"

Quotable Comments - Commandant, Gen. David M. Shoup, in a straight-from-the-shoulder speech at MCAAS, Yuma, probably' ut- tered one of the "gems" of this decade. "The ability of the man in the aircraft to help the man on the ground with the rifle is one of our prime assets. In addition, our air-ground team is the envy, not only of the armed forces of the United States, but of the armed forces of all the countries of the world."

Speaking Of Quotes - The Commandant was presented a bolo tie by Yuma Staff NCOs at a special banquet in his honor. Station Ser- geant Major E. F. Bailey advised the commandant he might be out of uniform. "Nonsense." raid the general, "I make tne regulations." You bet!!

A Costly Education - Eight-year-old David Steele. son of assistant WM editor SSgt. Al Steele, nearly floored the or man with his college rians. David told his dad that it would cost four million dollars "to send me to college for four years." But, he reasoned, "you don't have to worry, daddy, I wouldn't like to be away from you and mommie that long and we probably couldn't afford it either." As an afterthought, David asked: "If I did have to be away four years, how many sandwiches would I have to take?"

In The Mill -- Spring has sprung as far as transfers go. MSgt. Lou Marucheau, popular "EM" Club Manager, rotates to Quantico in early August. He'll be replaced by GySgt. Max Ickes who, coin- cidentally, early this year finished a highly successful stint as Qt..antico "E" Club manager . . MSgt. John Toon, former Staff NCO Club manager and more recently NCOiC of the Exchange's vast 1090 empire. leaves in early August for new duties at El Tore

. . Capt. M. H. Cook, former assistant Special Services Officer. now assistant Provost Marshal.

It Is Amazing - After showing her husband the magazine arti- cle that pointed out that 5,000 camels are used each year to make paint brushes, Mary Ickes exuberantly quipped: "Isn't it amazing what they can teach animals these days!" Sure is, Mary . . . !

Help Yourself - CWO Stu Shaw, Station representative for the Marine Corps Association, says that, in addition to getting a bigger and better magazine (MC GAZETTE) subscribers will now get a bonus of the late Lynn Montross' "The U. S. Marines - A Pictorial History.- The book normally sells for $10 but is being offered as .a bonus for new members who join for two or three years. Also, present members can get the book by renewing their subscription for three years. Contact him at the H & HS Squadron Office.

Help Wanted, Department - Writing a weekly column can either be a drag or a pleasure. It becomes a pleasure when readers call

(or mail) in little anecdotes or hummorous pieces of info con- cerning Station Brigade personnel and dependents. If you have any info of this type - or you just want to get your name in

the paper - call us at 72104 or address your quips to Editor, WINDWARD MARINE. Navy #990. We'll guarantee they'll reach print if they're suitable.

SHADES OF THE OLD WEST - Marines of the Ist6n., 4th Marines pay a visit to the old Cigar Store Indian during a visit to the set for the filming of the movie "Tombstone Street...

Hawaiians 'Take' Hollywood During 'Green Light' Liberty

WITH THE ISTBN., 4TH MA- RINES IN CALIFORIA--Holly- wood. California that is. "Twelve island born Marines and six other members of the lstBn., 4th Ma- rines were the special guests of the 20th Century Fox Film Cor- poration in Hollywood last week. Arriving at the studio, they were met by Mr. Bob Suhosky, TV pub- licity man for the studio and a former Marine ISO man and Leatherneck Magazine writer.

The first stop on their itin- erary was the TV setting for the series Adventures in Para- dise. Actors, extras, cameramen and

technicians were busy shooting scenes when the group of Ma- rines arrived. Gardner McKay, star of the series took time off from the shooting to join the group. Many of the Hawaiian "extras" used in scenes also quickly joined the group of Marines. The group of Marines made it a point to take their ukuleles along on the visit to Hollywood. and it wasn't long before the Adven- tures in Paradise set was rocking to Hawaiian music.

After about an hour on the set. the Marines boarded a bus

and were taken on a winding tour through some of the °titer sets. They visited the setting for the films Old Chicago, Prince Valiant, Tombstone Street and Star in the West. The latter is a new Debbie Reyn- olds movie. but unfortunately. there were no scenes being shot the day the Marines visited, so they missed seeing Debbie. After spending the day on the

studio sets, the Marines were the guests of the Los Angeles Dodg- ers Baseball Team.

Arriving at the Los Angeles

Collpeum, the Marines were taken onto the field to meet some of the players including Walter Alston. the Dodger manager, Gil Hodges, Maury Wills and Wally Moon.

Baseball fans generally take their 7th inning stretch, but the Marines took theirs in the eighth inning as they made their way out of the stadium, frozen out by the cold.

Anyway it was getting late and time to get back to Camp Pendleton to prepare for another phase of Operation Green Light.

"COLD RECEPTION" - Personnel of the istBn., 4th Marines shivver in "snw" on the 20th Century Fox movie lot as they visit the setting for the movie "From the Terrace." Don't feel sorry for them, the "snow" h actually gypsum used in making the false snow.

HOMESICK (AUWE!!) - These three Marines from the lstBn., 4th Marines got over their home- sickness in a hurry while visiting the setting for th sl-c.oting of the TV series "Adventures in Paradise." acing true Marines, but Hawaiians first, they decided to entertain the girls with the popular island favorite "Yellow-bird."

Maneuvering IGBay Marine is 'Easy' Prisoner Of War

1ST MARDIV, CAMDEN, Calif. --Corporal Vincenzo Rolla strag- glcd into his unit's command post today after being "missing and Presumed captured" more than nine hours.

The Leatherneck is a member of the Hawaii-based 1st Bn., 4th Marines, employed 116 "enemy aggressors" for "Ex- ercise Green Light" here.

The 26-year-old corporal was a forward observer with his unit's 81-mm mortar platoon. It was D-Day plus one and he had "dug Ir.' and settled back to wait for enemy activity. His mission - h(J:e Hill 801.

What a way to fight a war. thought Rolla. Beautiful night. net a cloud in the sky, temper- atere about 70 degrees and not a ''oOrd to be heard. P,t:'a knew his position was in-

-u1nernble. The forward outpost, :remanded at least a thousand

yards to the front. At 3:30 a.m. Rolla saw them

ccrnine: There were only a dozen teen advancing. By all rights they should be easy to stop by the two machine guns.

But Rolla had three strikes against him when be got up

today. lie was a member of the "aggressor" forces and, to add realism to the maneuvers, the "friendlies" had to have "Prisoners" to practice inter- rogation methods.

`Green Light' Marine Proves 'War Is Hell' A 1st Marine Division Leather- neck rested against his pack in a clump of bushes after lac sing on Green Beach during Operation "Green Light" late May 20.

Utility trousers soaked and mail clumps of sand clinging to his combat boots. LCPI. Law- rence Reels pulled a cigarette from his pocket. Reels feverishly searched his

pockets for a match. Finally. with a sigh of relief,

he found a book of "C" ration matches. The first match, however,

failed to ignite the cigarette. Reels tried again. but this time the wind opposed his effort. Three macthes. later, Reels' cigarette was still Unlit.

"War is hell," Reals mumbled. tossing the cigarettes in the sand!

According to Rolla, his position was overrun and he was taken prisoner. From then until he was finally released nine hours later, he Was searched, ques- tioned, and searched again.

After walking "what seemed like miles and miles" from Hill 801 to the 1st Marine Division POW stockade, Rolla was repatri- ated, thankful that it was all for the sake of training and not for real.

Railroads Extend Low -Price Fares For Servicernen

Washington (APPS) - The na- tion's railroads have extended their reduced furlough rates for service people traveling in uniform at their own expense.

The reduced round-trip fare, which dates from WWII and has continued ever since, was due to expire June 30, it was announced by Earl B. Padrick, chairman of the Interterritorial Military Com- mittee. It will now remain in effect until Dec. 31, 1961.

WESTERN TOURISTS - The uniforms are a bit modern for the scenery, but it's all make believe in the film capitol, Hollywood. These IstBn., 4th Marines troopers stroll down a street used in the shooting of "Tombstone Street."

Startling Realism Added In Green Light Operation 1ST MARDIV, CAMDEN, Civilian press, observers and vet- eran Marines alike, have been startled by the realism display- ed here by lst Marine Division actors in their assigned roles during Operation "Greenlight" in which the 1st En. 4th Marines recently participated.

Reactions were varied: Four elderly women enjoying

an automotive sojurn south on Highway 101, passed Camp Pen- dleton's Green beach area May 20.

Stopping to view the activity in the beach area prior to the Operation "Greenlight" essault, one of the quartet noticed an actor lying in the brush "bleed- ing" and groaning appropri- ately.

Utilizing dexterity not asso- ciated with their sex or age, the ladies hounded over the barbed wire fence and proceded to move the cooperative actor to their waiting car. With the exercise

umpire shouting protests, the 20th century Clara Bartons attempted to transport the "injured" Marine to a nearby Oceanside hospital for aid.

A close look it the simulated plastic wound (moulage) the actor was wearing and a de- tailed explanation by the umpire, concluded their attempt to aid a Marine in distress.

A San Diego and 1st Marine Division reporter were confused as a Marine actor in the assault of White Beach screamed, clutch- ed his stomach and fell to the ground. The two reporters im- mediately became engrossed in gathering information between the "injured" Marine's shouts of "corpsman!"

The corpsman cut through the actor's utility uniform and exposed a moulage depicting a severe stomach wound. The truth was discovered as

the "casualty" was evacuted via stretcher.

K-Bay PuPu's Win Over Chebloom's

The Kaneohe Bay Pupu's rolled to a 5-3 victory over the host Barber's Point Chebloom squad in a distaff baseball contest Sunday afternoon.

Chebloom pitcher, Peggy De- nali. who had previously in a pre- season encounter stymied the locals, was no match for the rampaging Pupu's.

Winning hurler, Arlene Sou- sa, led the Pupu's to victory in a magnificent display of moundworic Scoring the necessary runs for

the locals were A. Sousa, R. Hayes. T. St. Clair. A. Sang- meister and P. Faulkner.

Coming from behind 2-0 in the second frame the Pupu's pull ahead 3-2 only to be tied in the fourth by a sacrifice laid down by Peggy Denau.

Pupa catcher Ann Porter's Texas Leaguer scored a pair of runs to put the H-Bayites ahead for good. Coach Terry Rhoades' charges

played exceptionally and will no doubt be placed in the win column on numerous occasions this campaign.

K-Bay Swim Club Shines In

Meet With Central YMCA If you read a local Sunday

paper sport page you may have the idea that Central YMCA swim club trounced our K-Bay swim club in the age group dual Meet, hosted by Central Y, last Saturday.

Perhaps, the total points each team earned shows a decisive victory, but let us give you K- Bay's results.

Out of 36 events, K-Bay was entered in only 27.

This brings up the need for more tswimmers for our club. Central Y has almost 90 swimmers who have been training for three years, and 70 per cent of this club has attained classifying times.

Our club, 33 in number, has been training only six months as an organized club. With so many dependents living aboard the station, we should be able to get more boys and girls to on this worthwhile organization.

Sgt. L. R. Dalton will welcome anyone six years old to 15 years to come to the "E" pool to try out for our team. He holds practice every weekday at four thirty.

According to Sgt. Dalton, K- Bay is to be complimented on being invited to a dual meet with such an outstanding club as Cen- tral Y. In the near future, we will no doubt challenge them to a return meet, since they have in their posession the Perpetual Trophy which they have insti- gated.

On Saturday, our 33 swimmers swam, on an average, four events and won 45 amlificatqs. The first five winners were awarded official AAU awards. There were possibly five swimmers who bet- tered the time for classified meets, but official times will be published next week.

Sgt. Dalton wishes to extend his compliments to the entire K-Bay swim club and especially to these certificate winners:

I HOLES-IN-ONE I

A pair of holes-in-one were registered at the Kaneohe Klipper golf course this month.

Cmdr. P. Chapman of the Coast Guard "aced" the No. 11 hole on May 13. Playing a temporary green 160 yards from the tee, he used a 7-iron to score his hole-in-one.

Cmdr. Kobler, Warrant Officer Spencer and Chief Rivers, all of the USCG, witnessed the feat.

On May 17 Capt. A. E. Sals- brry got a hole-in-one on the same hole but on the regular green 185 yards from the tee. He used a 5-iron while playing with Cmdr. W. Donnelly and Col. H. Hazlett.

Phil Buzzelli was the batting hero of the day for the locals with four runs-batted-in.

HI-M Nine Win Pair; Wolfenden Fans 26

During the past week the baseball stock of the 1961 Hawaii Ma- I

lines went up considerably. Last Wednesday afternoon the

Naval Air squad invaded Rise ley Field and hammered a 10-7 victory over the Leathernecks.

Right-hander Bob Wolfenden hurled the locals to two straight triumphs on Tuesday night at Ward Field. Pearl Harbor, over the Red Sox, 2-1. and again on Sunday afternoon at K-Bay when he led the Marines to a 10-7 slugfest win over league leading Naval Air.

In the Red Sox victory Wolf- enden hurled a neat three-hitter and fanned 16 while walking only three. During the Naval Air encounter "Wolfie" whiffed 10 men walked four and was touched for seven safeties.

During his lit-inning stint Bob struekout a total of 26 batters. allowed 10 hits, walked seven and gave up only two earned runs.

Followers of Hawaii Marine baseball fortunes sincerely hope that at long last Wolfenden has regained his previous seasons' form and will bolster the badly depleted Leatherneck mound staff.

Saturday afternoon when the

Bob Wolfenden locals entertain the Pearl Harbor Admirals in a 2 p.m. contest at Rise ley Field they will open an eight-game home stand which will extend through June 13.

Naval Air. 10, Marines, 7

Using a booming bat as the pri- mary offensive weapon Naval Air defeated the Hawaii Ma- rines, 10-7, Wednesday afternoon at Rise ley Field in a Hawaii Ma- jor League Baseball contest.

A total of 10 hits were banged out by the visiting Pninters, including a pair of circuit blasts and three doubles.

Don Golden connected with a

solo four-bagger in the sixth for Naval Air and Tom Di Alfonso's homer came in the eighth with a mate aboard.

Di Alfonso also accounted for a double to be the batting hero of the day. Joining Di Alfonso with doubles for Naval Air was Jim Smothermon and Rick Fulgnezi.

Leathernecks Bob Lane, Dick Lash and Bill Lee all paired hits with Lee including a double in his total.

Charlie Mayer blasted a four- bagger in the fourth with one man on.

Rick Fulgenzi went the dis- tance for Naval Air to pick up the win. Jim Wffliams, who needed help from Tom Mazzolini in the ninth, suffered the loss for the Marines.

Marines, 2, Red Sox, 1

Allowing three safeties, walking only three and striking out 16 men Bob Wolfenden gave up a single unearned run as he hurled the Hawaii Marines to a 2-1 triumph over the Red Sox at Ward Field. Pearl Harbor, last Thursday night.

Woltenden was in trouble only twice during the game. In the sixth the Red Sox scored

their only run when the lead-off batter, Fred Shimonishi singled through the hole at short. Tsune Watanabe reached on an error and Shimonishi went to third on a forte out at second. putting men on first and third.

When Shin Yogi singled down the middle Shimonishi scampered home with the only tally of the evening for the Red Sox squad.

Woltenden fanned the next. two men to retire the side. In the ninth frame Sam Kon

walked and Ricki Watanabe was safe on an error. Both men advanced when Al Amuro sacri- ficed.

Again Wolfenden was the "man of the hour" when he tanned the next two batters to end the game. The Marines jumped off to an

early 1-0 lead when Denny Roth walked, went to second on a wild pitch and scored on Bill Lee's double.

Catcher Dick Adams drew a walk to start the seventh for the Leathernecks. He was sac- rificed to second by Wolfenden and scored on Denny Reth's single into right field.

Bill Lee again paired hits for the Marines and Ken Nakakura collected two of the three Red Sox hits.

Marines, 10, Naval Air, 5 Exploding for six runs in the

second inning the Hawaii Ma- rines gave pitcher Bob Wolfen- den a cushion as he coasted his way toward a 10-5 victory over the league-leading Naval Air Pointers Sunday afternoon at Riseley Field.

Bill Lee and John Davis hit back-to-back two-baggers to open the second and then after Charlie Mayer grounded out to the pitcher unassisted Bob Wolfenden, Jerry Henry. Denny Roth, Bill Childress, Bob Lane, and Dick Lash hit consecutive singles before John Davis hit into a double play to end the frame.

When the dust had cleared the Leathernecks had scored six runs on eight hits and were off and running. Naval Air scored once in the

first, sixth and seventh innings and pushed two men home in fifth.

However Wolfenden allowed only two earned runs as he was in the process of whiffing 10 men to keep the Pointers back on their heels all afternoon.

Only Pete Floyd was able to get two hits off Wolfenden, one of these a triple to left field.

Jerry Henry, Dick Lash and Bill Lee joined the two-hit club for the Marines.

Tom Edison's. Little 'Miracle Bulb' Costs Government $$$$ In Misuse

By Ensign W. F. Pitcher

When Thomas A. ison per- fected the incandesctmt bulb, making widespread use of electrical lighting practical, the achievement was looked upon qy many as a miracle. . Today, however, the use of electrical power has become So commonplace that it is viewed in the same light as the air we breathe or the water we drink.

This widespread use of elec- tricity, coupled with its relative low price. (approximately 1.2 cents per kilowatt hour) leads to a feeling of "what the heck, leave it on" attitude . . . if even that much thought is given to the subject.

As a Stationwide matter, however, the waste of electric power, chiefly through unnecessary lighting can add up to a

very expensive Item on a Sta- tion electric bill which totaled approximately 5270.500 for the fiscal year 1960.

A survey by the District Public Works Office last year concluded that $25,000 was being wasted through unnecessary lighting each year in the hangar and barracks areas alone, not count- ing the cost of bulbs or labor for replacement. Quite a loss, when it is considered that the remedy is largely just a matter

of old-fashioned common sense. First, use a bulb tailored to

the situation, giving sufficient light yet having a low unit cost and long life. Station Order 11360.1 gives the relamping schedule for a typical barracks outlining exactly this. glum of lighting whsn not

actually required, especially after taps and during daylight hours in the barracks areas. High-bay hanger lighting is ineffective in

daylight compared to natural sunlight and certainly is not required except over working areas. These and other simple steps to implement a positive and realistic utilities conserva- tion program are outlined in Station Order 4100.1C.

Finally, housing accounts for approximately 30 per cent of the total Station Bill, an item which can't allow an "Uncle Sam pays for it" attitude, especially when we represent Uncle Sam.

GAZETTE'S June Issue Hilites Guerrilla Tactics

The June issue of the MARINE CORPS GAZETTE, currently on Marine Exchange shelves, fea- tures the inside story on Com- munist doctrine for world-wide guerrilla war conquest. Realizing the ever increasing threat posed by Communist guerrilla tactics, Maj. H. C. Peterson extracts and translates pertinent facts from Che Gueverra's noted Cuban guerrilla manual. 'la guerra de Guerrillas."

"Sticks. Stones. and Atoms," by J. Burnham. offers a simple truth: We possess the utmost in atomic and nuclear weapons however, suffer defeat after defeat at the hands of inferior forces armed with little more than sticks, stones, and swords. "Is it not obvious," asks Mr. Burnham, "that we are not likely to meet the challenge unless we . . lift our Cinderella political-

warfare system .rom the scullery floor where we have so far left her in rags and tatters?"

President Kennedy has something to say on this subject. lie airs his views quite emphatical- ly as he implies that the U. S. IS Picking something from the "scullery floor." Re sure to read "The President: On the Deeper Struggle." In "The Case for Jet CAS"

Capt. J. M. Verdi says, "those who mourn the passing of AD and F4D should wipe away their tears and get with the program because . . . jet close air support is here to stay."

Some refer to Rommel as a brilliant military leader, others as a fraud. Mot. L. G. Hill. Jr., USA, evaluates this leg- endary figure - separates fact from fancy.

Greater Efficiency Possible Through Suggestion Program

The Federal Government, including the Department of De- fense, is constantly striving to effect greater efficiency and economy in operations. General David M. Shoup. in his annual message for 1961, said. "The Ma- rine Corps has benefited in the past year from the ideas of my Headquarters staff, as well as suggestions from personnel of various ranks in the field. Again I solicit your suggestions for improvements in any phase of Ma- rine Corps functions." Later in his message he said, "I want all commanders to obtain and process ideas and suggestions which relate to improvements in local

methods and procedures." One avenue for the submis-

sion of suggestions for improvement is the Incentive Awards Program. This Pro- gram. established under Pub- lic Law 763. 83rd Congress, was instituted to encourage maximum participation by military personnel and civilian employees in improving operations of the government. The program provides a means

whereby improvement ideas are investigated and evaluated and, if worthwhile, placed into operation. The program provides channels for processing improvement ideas on the local level as
