14,000 mile air trip to South America. They

will visit their son, Charles, an air force

surgeon who is stationed in Buenos Aires.

They are contacting former Morningside

students at all of their stops.

Because of a delayed plane the Roadmans missed the alumni meeting in Houston, Texas, but did have lunch with Dr. Baldwin, former faculty member, and Dave Burris, son of Morningside librarians, Mr. and Mrs. Clinton Burris.

Ramon Barberro '48 and Daphne Mayorga '52 took them on a tour of Panama, and visits to two of the day nursery centers in which Daphne is working. They met Mrs. Cecelia P . deRemon, the first lady of Pan­ama, who is greatly interested in the nur­sery projects.

Daphne's mother made tamales for them, which combined with papaya juice, was a t ypical Panama luncheon. They were enter­tained at dinner by Mr. and Mrs. Oliver, who have been t eaching in the Canal Zone high schools. They are aunt and uncle of Mrs. Thurman J ohnson (Barbara Schmidt '47) .

In the evening all of the available Pana­manian Morningsiders gathered for a din­ner. Quoting from Dr. Roadman's letter: "The memory of these students and parents greeting us at the air port when we arrived, their singing of our Morningside song as we departed will be cherished forever in a new faith that peace will eventually come upon the earth."

Arriving in Lima, Peru, the travelers were met by Winnifred Osbey Pickering ('44) and her husband, Jim, a Pan-American air pilot. Later Geraldine Johnson Sar­mientos '36 took them to a Union protestant church service. Gerry has three children and is teaching in the American sch ool. Her husband, Dr. J orge Sarmientos is a noted lung specialist and head of the good health service for Lima.

Characteristically much of the Roadman's time in Lima was spent in visiting schools.

At Santiago, Chile, our president and wife were met by Mrs. Manuel Campasano (Joan J ohnson '45), who is visiting her
