Corner PEACE BE To VOU

By Chaplain W. J. McConnell The death of the General Sec-

retary of the United Nations has shown forcibly what every ser- viceman knows so clearly, that those who labor so diligently for peace must be prepared to give their lives for such a cause.

Ole Lord on Easter Sunday evening' said to his apostles "Peace be to you-. What a wonderful girt to receive is peace, not only peace in the world at large but aiso peace in our own homes and souLs as well. Our Lord wishes then and now that his followers enjoy and appreciate peace. So many times that which pas-

ses for peace is nothing more than an armed truce internationally or unarmed hostility personally. The peace that we should have should be without tear, without revenge and without anxiety.

In ancient days the Pax Ro- mans extended throughout the Roman empire. Even then. how- ever. there were ',anal] upris- ings of various tribes which did net cause to much concern at the time. Yet these minor disturbances sowed the seeds for the eventual dissolution of the empire. May all our actions tend to-

ward harmony rather than dis- cord. May we live so that our conscience, rightly formed. is at peace with ourselves that we are at peace with our neighbor and that our country is at peace with the world.

The love of peace and the de- sire for war can spread with e- qual rapidity. May our efforts through prayer and sacrifice be for peace, the peace of Christ.

Kaneohe Bay 'Litter-Bugs'

Target Of Clean-up Drive Colonel W. R. Campbell, Air

Station Commanding Officer, this week, called for renewed effort to stamp out the litter problem on the station.

Ha ye sss To Burn? Litter Law Violation Can Cost You S100

Want to throw .re.; 100 bucks recklessly?

It's easy. Just throw some trash out your car window or dror something on the sidewalk next time you're off station someplace. Make sure John Law witnesses your folly.

The Seth State has a Litter- bug Law that covers this nice- ly. It reads, simply:

Whoever negligently or ma- iiciously scatters. throws, drops, ur deposits or causes to be scat- tered, thrown, dropped or de-; posited. any paper. glass, glass i

uus to traffic on any highway, I

street, road, alley or lane in the State of Hawaii, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon con- viction thereof shall be punished; by fine not exceeding one hund- I

t.-1 dollars."

"The appearance of this sta- tion," Col. Campbell declared, "is just as much the responsi- bility of each individual Marine as is his personal appearance. I find the unsightliness of our grounds inexcusable."

He added that dependents and civilian employees on station also share the responsibility for keep- ing the station properly policed. Capt. J.

lawe, the Sea Bees built seven air targets, five shore naval bom- bardment targets, a bole-bull tar- get, a 1200 foot ring target, three hell- ports, two of which were soil and then cemented with Marston matting, and various other targets, ranges and pylons.

According to WO Yung, "to accomplish the tasks that were ahead of us, the men had to work 10 hours a day, six days a week. We could have never finished the job without the support we received from 1IVIR-161 . .

After unloading their construe-

tion equipment from the LST, 34 members of the detachment de- parted on the last leg of their journey to Midway Island, where they will rejoin their parent or- ganization, Mobile Construction Battalion #9. The 10 remaining Sea Bees will clean their equip-

ment before treking to Midway. Before leaving Kaneohe, WO

Yung added, "I cannot say 'thank you' enough to the Marines of the 1st Marine Brigade for the helping hand they gave us, which made our four-month isolation

"It shouldn't be necessary to detail Marines to clean up after other Marines," the Col- onel said, "yet this litter prob- lem keeps a police detail on the go all the time." He reminded all personnel on

station that litterbugs are vio- lating a command order and are subject to appropriate disciplin- ary action.

Captain Marcus Cook. PAW, has instructed military police to clamp down on violators. Citations will be issued in all cases, he said.

The Marine Exchange Officer, Captain N. R. Stackhouse, mean- while, has ordered 48 large trash receptacles which will be brightly colored and located in the vicinity of all exchange facilities through- out the station. Additional recep- tacles will also be placed inside the 1090 store, he said.

Condemned Quonsets

Will Be Ton Down Kaneohe Bay air station rest-

dents will soon be speaking "aloha" to the 15 quonset huts and the old laundry facility lo- cated along Lawrence Road.

Plans are now underway to tear down the structures in the near future. LtCdr. T. C. Wil- liams. Public Works Officer, said.

Nothing is planned for the old rental housing area except the land will be laid aside for future expansion.

The only two huts to be sal- vaged have been turned over to Boy Scout Troop 225. They will dismantle and move the quon- sets to Kailua to be utilized as their clubhouse and recreation area.

Work is expected to be com- pleted by the end of the month.

Being Tested

SCAMP Could Offer Corps

Highly Mobile Transportation The Marine Corps is currently

testing a revolutionary utility vehicle which, if adopted, may some day replace a good portion of its fleet of 2% and 5-ton trucks and 5-ton dump trucks, according to an announcement made by Headquarters Marine Corps to- day.

The test vehicle, known of- ficially as Truck. 4 ton. 4x4, High Mobility. has been nick- named SCAMP, a word derived from its original development designation of Sectionalized Carrier and Multi - Purpose ve- hicle. The SCAMP is an articulated

vehicle consisting basically of a two-wheeled power unit coupled by a gooseneck to a two-wheeled trailer unit. Each unit is equipped with large-diameter, low-pressure, high-flotation tires to provide maximum off-road mobility.

Power is delivered mechani- cally to the tractor unit wheels. In low and reverse gears. power

Dental Appointments Punctuality Stressed

Air Station and Brigade Ma- rines were reminded this week that it is mandatory that all den- tal appointments be met promptly and that any cancellation must be made 24 hours in advance.

The design of the SCAMP provides positive wagon steer. high ground clearance high an- gles of approach and departure, and pimple rugged construction.

Trailer units of different de- signs and functions may be pro- vided to obtain maximum ver- satility and utilization.

The complete vehicle is ap- proximately 24 feet long. eight feet wide and eight feet high. It is powered by a 70-horsepower, three-cylinder, two-cycle diesel engine and is capable of speeds up to 35 mph on improved roads.

Under development since 1958, the SCAMP is cur- rently undergoing service tests at three Marine Corps instal- lations. MCS. Quantico, MCB. Lejeune and MCB, Camp Pen- dleton.

"Both for the contribution handicapped persons can make to our national productivity and for the sense of independence and well-being which they can de- rive from doing a job."

Air station Civil Service of- ficials havi learned, as well as the other agencies, that handi- capped citizens perform as well as, or better than, able-bodied workers in both quality and quantity at work produced.

Handicapped workers have a lower rate of turnover and have fewer lost-time accidents. Their absentee records compare favor- ably with those of' the non-handi- capped.

Not a single disabling injury could be traced to a handi- capped worker's disability and there was no case where a worker's handicap caused in- jury to a fellow worker.

Mr. K..., one of 180,000 work- ers with physical handicaps hired by the government since 1942, sustained his injury from a motor scooter accident in 1946. His ac- cident resulted in very limited use of the left hand and arm.

In commenting on his handicap, Mr. Kai remarked, "what I can't do with my left hand I compen- sate with the additional strength in my right. It's that easy."

Grid Season

Opens Nov. 15 K -flay gridiron fans are in for

a treat this season with the an- nouncement from Special Serv- ices that competition in eight- man football will again be held in the Brigade-Station Intra- mural League.

It was also noted that all games on the soon - to - be - announced schedule will be night contests at Pollock Field near the 3/12 Can- nonecrs area. This will give more

' spectators an opportunity to view the gridiron duels.

Competition will be delayed until the latter part of Novem- ber this season, however, due to scheduled training excercises involving the 1st Marine Bri- gade. The eight-man football team

differs from the eleven-man type in that the two tackles and one back are eliminated. It also dif- fers from the six-man variety in that only ends and backs are eli- gible pass receivers.

An 80-yard field is used in the eight-man games.

According to Special Services, lighting will make all action on the field visible as well as.in the end zones.

READY TO ROLL - Sgt. Ray W. Gale (left) and Cpl. Thomas Noel of the Field Maintenance Section make final check of the mo- bile target pulling machine before starting it down its 500 yard track.

Imaginative Field Maintenance Marines Come Up With impossible' Target Puller

By SSgt. Del It. Vernon If- initiative, indulgence and

foresight have anything to do with building a piece of machin- ery. the Marines of Base Calmp Field Maintenance Section have all three.

It all started when the mainte- nance crew arrived at the Po- hakuloa area about two .months ago.

One problem after another arose in setting up a towing de- vice capable of moving running targets across a quarter mile of track. These towed targets are used for the artillery and anti- tank unit's firing exercises. Starting with rusty rails, ruined

targets, and only an a-frame hull, Marines under the command of WO F. S. Williams of Field Main-

Grueling 41Mile Pohakuloa-To-Hilo Hike Climaxes 'One-Four's' Big Island Training

By SSgt. Del R. Vernon After two days and a night

spent in the field, Marines of the 1st Battalion, 4th Marine Regi- ment, under the command of Lt- Col. J. R. Stevens, departed Po- hakuloa Base Camp last Friday for a 41 mile hike to Hilo.

The mile-and-a-half column passed through the main gate Just before 6 a.m. Friday morn- ine. Wear) troops formed lines, one behind the other with 1,t- Col. Stevens and his staff at the head of the column. Two miles from the starting

point. natural elements took over. Rain, cold winds, and rocky, lava encrusted roads plagued the 1/4 Marines.

The object of the march was to traverse the 41 miles to the big island town of 11110 in 18 hours. This si as not just an en- durance march. but the climax to an actual tactical problem. The "enemy" had been hit, and

hit hard, north of Pohakuloa Base Camp and had withdrawn to the town of Hilo to set up a last ditch defense. Marines were to pursue the enemy and destroy the town of Hilo.

Companies were rotated to the front of the column every hour to maintain the steady three-mile- an-hour pace. Vehicles carried :11 excess gear to help the Marines unload their heavy burdens. Mules and jeeps were laden with weapons, radios, packs, camou- flague gear and C-rations.

After six hours of grueling

march. the tired troops halted at the halfway point for the noon meal. This was at 12:15 p.m.

Shoes were removed and socks changed in preparation for the second half of the hike which would carry them from the 3,000 foot level to the sea. The Base Camp. where the hike started is 6.61.3 feet above sea level.

Nearing the breaking point. some of the 1/4 men had to be placed on trucks and taken to the airport where the final staging point was set up. This number was rather small and almost en- tirety due to blisters of the feet. Of the 800 marchers, less than 100 dropped out and only when ordered to do so.

At 6 p.m. the troops stopped for evening chow six miles out of Hilo. Here final plans were made for the march into town. The hike was to end at the Hilo Inch school where 6x6 trucks were waiting to carry them to the airport. Upon entering the city limits

at 8 p.m. spirits rose as throngs of civilians stood by the road to cheer on the Marines. Backs arched, heads tilted and the stead y ;'hue- two -three- four" started rippling through the ranks.

Counting cadence and singing the Marine Corps Ftymn, the tired. but proud 1/4 Marines arrived at the Hilo High School at 9:40 p.m. after over 16 hours of downhill hiking.

A Remarkable Day On Saddle Road

(Ed 'Vote: The following editorial appeared last week in :he Hilo. Hateaii HERALD TRIBUNE when members of the IstBn.. 4th Marines began a 41-mile-hike from Pohakttloa pr) Hilo.)

For the of us who rarely walk any farther than from house to garage and from parking lot to store. this is a most re rnarkahle day.

On this day some 700 members of tlu, First Battalion. Fourth Marine Regiment. are walking 41 miles front Polut- kulon to Hilo.

tenance set out to do the impossi- ble.

These Marines had no slide rules, no blackboard to diagram from, no training manuals to work with-just common sense, sweat and a prayer. The ultimate goal was to get

the rusty hulk on rustier rails, running in time to be used by Brigade units arriving at Pohaku- loa in September.

Transportation to the impact area where the target area is was a big problem. The roads to the area looked smooth as glass. The truth, however, is that the smoothness of the road is really ruts and chuck-holes, covered with 18-30 inches of dust.

Originally used by the Army, the mobile target pulling device was disbanded e.oly this spring. When the Marines of Bat- talion Maintenance found out where it was and what it used to be. ideas were formulated to make this "thing" into a useable item for artillery units of the 1st Marine Brigade.

POHAKULOA TO HILO - THE HARD WAY LtCol. J. R. Stevens Leads Troops Down Saddle Road

1 A Growing 'Concern'

Furthermore. each man is carrying between 60 and 70 pounds of personal belongings and combat equipment.

Editors are notoriously lazy, but there may be other citi- zens as well who feel they've done something particularly rahletie in carrying the groceries in from the car.

Youngsters who are filled with pep at bedtime. and who are never too tired for gant-s. too olten turn Mom into a family chauffeur when it would do the kids good to walk.

In the process of evolution man may someday he born with wheels instead of legs if he doesn't begin to make more lop of the legs he has.

Our hat is off to the hardy Marines, and our brow is moist with perspiration as we think about them trudging down the Saddle Road.

Wt hope that incredible highway is not as bard on feet it is on tires.

The Marires, we know, will have the situation well in hand. We're glad to have them, aboard here on the Big Island.

The machine runs on a 500 yard long track and has two gears, forward and reverse. SSgt. P .A. Shoemaker and Sgt. R. W. Gale, over a period of a month and a half, took the ruined hulk of iron and made it into a smooth operating ma- chine. Capable of pulling 'wo and

towing two targets at a maximum speed of seven and a half miles per hour. the mobile puller can make 100 trips up and down the 500 yd. stretch of rail.

The machine does not require a driver; once filled with gas and started, it runs on the rails until hitting a trip switch at one or the other end. This trip switch auto- matically reverses the course of travel and the vehicle starts in the opposite direction once more.

Presently used for target pull- ing for Anti-Tank spotting ri- fles. machine guns and 106 re- coilless rifles, the puller takes nine minutes to complete the round trip course. The innards of the "baby" of

A Feature Attraction

Cpl. Chesty 'Bowwing' Out As Washington's Mascot

Corporal "CHESTY," USMC, (IC-9), D10000010/0311, is hang- ing up his chevrons.

Long a feature attraction of the regular Friday evening parades conducted during the summer months at Marine Barrack s, Washington, D. C., "CHESTY's" Service Record Book will be closed out after his performance in the last evening parade of October 6.

"CHESTY." the English bull dog mascot, has appeared in over 200 official ceremonies and pa- rades with the Marines of Marine Barracks. Washington, D.C.

His parade duties consist of marching smartly down the cen- ter of the parade ground promptly at 9 p.m. to begin the famous eve- ning parades.

He has proven a favorite with the thousands of spectators who weekly attend the parades, which are open to the public.

"CHESTY" was presented to the Marines of Marine Barracks as a gift from Mr. and Mrs. John C. Hazen of Silver Spring, Mary- land in 1955. The dog won im- mediate favor and was quickly adopted as the official mascot of the Barracks.

In true Marine fashion, he was enlisted for life by the Barracks' Commanding Officer, had an of- ficial Service Record Book pre- pared and maintained accurately in the Personnel Office, and was out-fitted in a complete set of custom tailored uniforms.

In the six years of "CHESTY's" active service, he has had his uni- forms altered five times, and was promoted to the rank of Corporal by the late Commandant of the Marine Corps, General Randolph McCall Pate.

There he suddenly contracts in- fantile paralysis after a strenu- ous day of swimming. Although Franklin's mother wants him to give up his political future and lead the life of a country squire, he has the will to force himself out of his wheelchair and learn to crawl-a sign that he wants an active life. When the oppor- tunity to return to public life occurs, he decides to nominate Alfred E. Smith at the Demo- retie national convention. Eleanor clashes with Franklin's mother, but she is coached by Louis Howe to help Franklin by making speeches and. at Madison Square Garden in 1924. he takes ten great steps to stand, unaided by crutches, before the cheering multi/Ude.

"Homicidal" Humor - When a midwestern theater presented "Homicidal," the management of- fered to return the money of patrons who wanted to leave be- fore the "scare" climax appeared on the screen. He suffered a fi- nancial setback, when nearly all the teenagers demanded their money back. Not before they had seen the ending however.

T#2 - HonsieidaL
