June has long been a favored month for vow-making, and this past month in the 4th Mariners (Reinf) a record number of vows were made. Reenlistment vows, not nuptials.

EDITOR'S CORNER WE'RE THE HOSTS FOR A CHANGE

Tomorrow, at the invitation of Brig. Gen. George R. E. Shell, CG of the 1st Marine Brigade, FMF, and through the efforts of the Marine Corps Air Station, the Windward Oahu public will visit us.

We do not, at this time, have any idea of the number of persons who will take advantage of this opportunity. But this will be the first time that the public has been invited to witness a full Brigade parade and review with aerial fly-by, as well as static display. As a matter of fact, tomorrow will be the first time since the Air Station was commissioned in 1952 that any segment of the general public has been invited aboard en masse. So it is reasonable to assume that quite a few might join with the dependents tomorrow.

The procedure for entering the gate has been simplified to the point where it entails only a momentary stop on passing, through. Ad- ditional parking areas are being set aside for visitors. Additional sentries will be stationed along Mokapu Road to handle traffic with a minimum of delay.

Guests will be encouraged to inspect the weapons and equipment in the static display and to ask such questions as they may desire of the personnel standing by.

What does all of this mean? It means that for the first time we, the Marines, are hosts to the local civilian communities in our own home. Previously, the people of Kailua, Lanikai, Kaneohe, Waimanalo -and all up and down the coast-have invited us to aii of their functions, fairs, parades, churches, schools and many of their homes.

This is our chance to show them we can be as thoughful, as gracious. We can be good hosts, too, by helping them to enjoy their visit.-GBS

WORK IN PARADISE The weather early this week (and we hope its still as good today)

was the pure ingredient that went into the title "Paradise of the Pacific" applied to Hawaii.

But on a beautiful island with an ideal climate and the whole out- doors inviting us to really live, we plod along with the same training, the same office jobs and most of the same problems that occupy Marines around the world. Of course, we don't just about freeze to death on night bivouacs.

It seems a shame to be thusly occupied while we serve our tours in the island paradise that thousands every year spend plenty of the long green just to visit for two weeks.

On the other hand, it would be difficult to find a better place to work and train. And we can get a sample of that Hawaiian vacation all year 'round. During the course of a two-year tour, it is possible to take more than a total of two weeks for a real vacation. We can see Oahu -egularly and, during the course of a tour, all of the other islands, too-if we want to see them.

The real question is: are we making the most of it? Will we feel after we return to the Mainland that we missed out on some sight- seeing or swimming, or hiking, or just plain recreation simply because we went to Joe's which is just like Joe's back home?

Now what have we? We work in paradise, yes. And however much this may seem a shame on particularly nice days, it is necessary. We also can vacation in paradise. Let's not miss the chance.-GBS

Tomorrow night. starting at 5

Sponsored by the Holomua Can- oe Club the luau will be true Ha- waiian for the reasonable cost of $3 per person. Tickets are available from Station Special Services or may be obtained from sidewalk ta- bles in Kailua.

For the photographers, the pigs will be taken out of the imu starting at about 4 p.m_

Plenty of good food and some top- flight entertainment are planned. The dancing and singing will range through Polynesia. rather than just Hawaii. There will be Tahitian and Maori dancing as well as hula.

A lot of volunteer work is going Into this luau. particularly by the leaders and members of the Holo-

ua Canoe Club. The clab will use the proceeds to send canoe teams to the Duke Kahanamoku out rig- ger canoe championship races in Hi o early in August. Some of our own Marines are members of this

While the success of the venture from the standpoint of ticket sales appeared assured at press time. more is at stake than just getting a crowd for a luau. This is the first test of a long-cherished plan to stage luaus regularly on the Wind- ward side.

Dependents Urged To Keep Dates For Medical Care

The importance of keeping medical appointments at both the Sta- tion dispensary and Tripler by all K-Bay personnel and their dependents has been stressed this week in Brigade order 6320.2.

Many appointments made by dependents at 'Tripler and the Station dispensary have not been kept, the order pointed out.

During May and June more than 100 such appointments were made. and neglected by the persons requesting them. Missed appointments constitute an excessive and unnec- essary administrative load on the medical facilities and delay medical services for those who do keep their appointments.

It is urged that the dispensary and Tripler be given 24 hours' notice in advance when dependents are unable to keep appointments.

MCAS Adjutant Change July 18

A change in the staff of the Air Station next week will see 1st Lt. J. A. Kent Jr.. relieve Capt. F. D. Johns as station adjutant. July 18.

Lt. Kent arrived here from MCAS, El Toro two weeks ago. A native of Greenville. Miss.. he has served in the Marines since 1942.

Capt. Johns will depart for re- assignment at El Toro on July 24. He was assistant station S-1 from his arrival here in July, 1954 until he assumed duties as station adjutant last May 22.

Youth Party A "Youth Get-Together" party is

planned for children of Kaneohe military personnel from 7:30 to 10 pm. this evening in Bldg. 477. according to information received this week.

Staged for all children 11 years and older. the "Youth Get-To- gether" will feature games. dancing, and refreshments. It is sponsored by the joint efforts of the "0" Wives and Staff NCO Wives clubs.

While the affair is for youths only. parents are invited to ''look in". Children should wear school clothing and carry their dependents ID cards. it was announced.

Intelligence Class Receive Diplomas From Col, Godbold

The 4th Marines (Reinf.) Intel- ligence School closed today when Col. Bryghte D. Godbold. commanding officer of the 4th Marines (Reinf.i presented diplomas to the graduating class.

The sehool, which convened two weeks ago. included all of the enlisted personnel in the 4th Marines intelligence sections and representa- tives from MAG-13 and Brigade. Headquarters.

Col. Godbold visited the school Tuesday morning when the intelligence specialists were hard at work preparing their intelligence estimates and annexes.

On completion of his visit to the school. he remarked to 1st Lt. Rob- ert D. White, assistant S-2 officer for the 4th Marines and instructor- coordinator 'for the course, "The results of schools are directly attribut- able to the quality of the ina,ruct- ors. It is obvious that you have a very fine school here".

During the last week the 45 members of the school were broken down into intelligence teams. They were given a practical problem and as the week progressed new information and material was introduced. Each man in the team spent a cer- tain amount of time preparing the various aspects of the intelligence report. This enabled the students to become proficient in all areas of intelligence production.

The classroom became a hum of activity as the teams competed with each other to complete their estimates and annexes. Lt. White com- mented, "I have never seen a group of men work so hard."

The men themselves seemed pleased with the opportunity to improve their intelligence skills. SSgt. J. C. Gevatosky, NCOIC of one of

Salk Vaccine Ready Monday For Dependents

Beginning Monday, July 16. the MCAS Dispensary will once again give inoculations of Salk polio vaccine to eligible dependents of Ka- neohe military personnel, according to a disclosure made yesterday.

The vaccine program received a setback recently when shipments of the drug failed to arrive from the manufacturer on schedule. This delay came at a time when plans for administration of the complete vaccine program had been published in the WINDWARD MARINE.

The renewal of the program will include all three inoculations in the Salk vaccine series, it was announced.

Persons eligible for the third shot are children from six months through 15 years and pregnant mothers. They must have had the second dose at least seven months ago.

First and second shots will be given to children in the six-month through 15-year range and to pregnant women, it was said.

Inoculations will be administered in the Dependents Clinic of the MCAS Dispensary. Monday through Friday from 8 to 11 a.m. and from 1 to 3 p.m.. a spokesman stated.

Third shots of the Salk vaccine have not previously been administered here.

the teams, stated, "A school like this held every year is the best way to keep a reservoir of trained intelligence personnel in the 4th Ma- rines."

Upon completion of the school today, the 45 students will return to their parent units.

CUSTOMER'S VIEW-Lovely Wahines, files, typewriters and sticks of paper is what the newcomer to Navy Supply encounters when he first steps into supply headquarters with a request for one of 24 000 items that the Supply Department handles. Supply support for the I st Ma- r'n Brioade, FMF, and the station departments not only requires multiple paper work but also warehouses to take care of all of the items.

Who maintains the plant and cost ac- counts and prepares the payroll for the 602 civilians who are employed by MCAS in the running of the air station?

In order to answer these questions one must understand the respon- sihilities of the Navy supply and Fiscal Department. headed by Cmdr. William T. Peach III.

Marine Aircraft Group 13 is dependent upon Navy Supply for aviation. electronics. inert ordnance. general stores as well as their POL products. When repair parts are needed. they are crdered from Navy Supply.

Full supply support is rendered to all station departments. The material that Public Works needs for the maintenance of the station is ordered through Navy Supply. Housekeeping items. labor saving devices. desks. chairs. files. etc. are ordered through this department.

Navy Supply handles 24.000 dif-

When all these items are added up the total value is S53.071.222.99.

Cost accounting is also a function of the Fiscal Department. All units on the station live within a budget. and cost accounting assures that units keep within the budgetary limit.

The civilian employees also look to the Fiscal Department for a very important item. their pay.

To many personnel aboard the station. the Navy Supply and Fiscal Department consists solely of several large buildings filled with materials and lovely wahines. However. those in closer touch with this department have more definite opinions. For ex- ample Lt. Col. William E. Word. 1'1AG-13 Loaistics officer. stated.

Comptrollers Added to MC

CAMP H. M. SMITH-The Ma- rine Carps began a new era in financial management 01 July 1 when Comptroller Section! were established at ten major commands throughout the Corps.

It marked the first time in its history that the Marine Corps has had a comptroller as a member of the general staff.

Designed for the "promotion of ecor Dina and efficiency throigh the establishment of uniform budgetary and fiscal procedures and organizations," the comptrollership concept was provided by the Title W amend- ment to the National Security Act of 1947.

Headquarters, Fleet Marine Force. Pacific is the only command in the Pacific area to be authorized a comptroller section. The newly formed general staff here is headed by Lt. Col. Roger C. Power.

Comptroller sections have also been established at: Marine Corps Schools. Quantico. Va.: Fleet Ma- rine Force. Atlantic. Norfolk. Va.: Marine Corps Base. Camp Lejeune. N.C.: Marine Corps Base. Camp Pendleton. Calif.: Marine Corps Re- cruit Depots. San Diego and Parris Island: Marine Corps Supply Cen- ters. Albany. Ga., and Barstow. Calif.: and the Marine Corps Cloth- ing Depot. Philadelphia.

Among the responsibilities of the comptroller are: to provide guid- ance and instructions on budget matters. to review resource require- ments and justifications. to prepare cost estimates. to recommend alloca- tion of funds for approved operat- ing programs. to initiate action to adjust financial plans to available funds when required. and for sub- mitting requests for additional funds with justification.

Pendleton Scout Is Top Military Paper

CAMP PENDLETON. Calif.-The station newspaper. the Pendleton Scout. has received a Department of Defense award for being "the outstanding military letterpress newspaper in the country for the first quarter of 1956."

The award states that the Scout has heel; ". . . a positive factor in promoting efficiency, welfare and general welfare of the personnel."

Maj. Gen. George F. Good. Jr., Base Commander. conveyed his ap- preciation to the newspaper staff and stated that it was a source of pride to him that the Scout was chosen to be awarded for excellence.

A "well done" letter to Gen. Good from Gen. R. McC. Pate. Command- ant of the Marine Corps. said in part : "In winning this award the staff of the Pendleton Scout has shown a high degree of initiative. imagination. technical proficiency. and devotion to duty."

The staff of the Scout consists of Capt. Walt Swindells. Base Informa- tion Officer: MSat. J. T. Keeling. Editor: TSgt. Ken Maudux. Assist- ant Editor: SSgt. Dan Martin. Fea- ture Editor: Sgt.

ing the attack Dec. 7. 1941. Since the bombs. though of British de- sign. coald ha..e been captured during the Japanese advance through China prior to Dec. 1941: the idea is entirely plausible.

The chore of dealing with hazards of this nature is "old hat" to the Kaneohe EOD section, They are highly skilled ordnancemen and ale equipped with special tools to lessen the danger of disarming all types of explosives. Even so. it remains a dangerous job and one which no person. less well prepared. should attempt on his own.

Unexploded bombs. hand grenades. live ammunition. and assorted explosives are found with dis- turbing regularity on Oahu. This is to be expected since the island itself has served as a training ground for countless thousands of military personnel in addition to being a target for enemy aerial as- sault. All these facts serve to under- line the necessity for a continuing public awareness of the hazards which may be encountered almost anywhere.

A dud is not always easily recognized as such. even by the expert ordnancemen. A harmless appearing object which is found on a beach. in a wooded area. or even under a pile of rubble behind a garage. might well be a deadly explosive. In many cases the slightest disturbance will cause detonation.

Lt. Files and his EOD men are always ready to dispose of duds. phone call to their office will bring them to any spot on Oahu when a dud. or suspected dud. has been discovered. The hest advice to the finder is. "stay away from it." says Lt. Fites. "it may be hot."

Carnivals offer excellent night picture-taking opportunities.

Night-Life for Your Camera Night-time has always been

famed in song and story. Scarcely a poet down through the ages has failed to pay homage to that lovely velvet- cloaked mystery known as Night. So why not take your cue from all these advisers and put your camera on the "night shift," too?

We think you'll find that picture taking after dark is really a very simple matter. Place your camera on a tripod or other solid support and set it for time exposure.

As for exactly how long the exposure time should be, the best answer we can give you is "It all depends on the amount of light." Actually. it would be impossible to list specific information on exposure time for all the countless opportunities that exist for taking pictures out of doors at night. Exposure time may well run any.- v-here from three or four seconds to several minutes. all depending on the light. You'll just have to use your judgment and shoot several pictures at different lengths of exposure.

On summer weekends and va. cation trips, nighttime driving is

. bound to present lots of views that will captivate you by their sheer beauty. There'll be the twinkling lights of a tovrn seen ix the distance as you approach over the brow of a hill, a quiet little tree-lined street in a residential section, a park scene given fairy outlines against the dark sky. Any of these is likely to yield good picture material-and so will fair grounds, public buildings, monuments, statues, and historic shrines which are illumi- nated at night. For such is the magic of night that it often lends enchantment and majesty to what might be only an average view when seen by daylight.

Whenever the night presents a breathtaking view, it's time for a little picture-taking activity on your part. Just get out of the car and stretch your legs for a few minutes while you set up your camera and make a brief time exposure.

in the cards

by JERRY SELLERS Yo ho, ho, and a bucket of money for athletes. With USC drawing the latest -fine and being barred from the

Rose Bowl for two years, we have to sit down and beat out our thoughts on the ancient typewriter.

We've followed this "expose" from start to what seems like the f:nish. In short, the Pacific Coast Conference has just about had it.

(At press time, the University of Oregon and Orgeon State were L.-der fire, too!)

Here s whet it boils down to: the PCC has collected in the neigh- b:rhood of $232,000 in fines from four members for infractions of the athletic code.

UCLA was fined $93 000, Washington got tagged for $52,000, California $25,000 and USC $62,000.

To quote a USC player, it stinks." We ran across e bit of information in a couple mainland paper;

+l-,e other day that is interesting. John K. Hass, a Big Tenner from Minnesota and former Marine and

cne of the country's foremost authorities on the Uniform Code of Military Justcie, went through his alumni magazine and underlined lines of people he knew in school.

They were former athletes et Minnesota, and included doctors, dentists, two authors, en investment broker, the president of a university, the alumni association prexy, alumni secretary, a state senator, at- torneys, the heads of two big insurance companies, en Air Force officer a professor, a judge, and a lot of others.

Hess states, ' . . . I know that most of these men, if not all. received aid in some form or other in attending the university. So did I. lt does no Pippear that it was wasted.-

All we can add is, -Amen." *

ZOtti Out Former All-American and All-Service halfback at Parris

Island, Dick "Zig-Zag" Zotti was released to inactive duty June 30 at PI.

The former Boston College star, named to Harry Wismer's 1954 All-American team and both the All-Eastern and All- CatAolic teams of that year, will try out with the Philadelphia Eagles and Baltimore Colts.

A PLC'er in college, he played one year of ball for Quantico after being commissioned and one with Pl.

Never Fails We knew it would happen! Last week this column passed on some mild praise to the

Intra-Station softbal! program for having no problems. Well ono r Arne up this week. A game was forfeited recently because a player had com-

peted on the varsity softball team last year. We checked into it through Lt. Ted Fling, I-S sports director.

He informed us that the rule was in effect before the season began and that each team is held responsible for enforcing the rule within its own numbers.

In this case, too, it seems ignorance of the law is not excusable.

So, to help prevent similar cases in the future, we quote the ruling:

"Change 2 to Station Order 1710.1, dated 12 March 56: "Any man who was accepted on any varsity sport as a

player is ineligible to compete in any similar Intra-Station sport. (Note: Violation of the above rule will result in forfeiture of the game in which the offending player participated.)"

Another upset at the trials came in the pairs-without-coxswain event when Navy Lt. (jg) James T. Fifer of Quonset Point, ILL, and Mari-le Lt. Duvall Hecht of Cherry Point MCAS, N.C., defeated 1952 Olympic champs Chuck Logg Jr., and Tom Price.

circumstances concerning damage suffered by the old Mokapu Fish and Game Farm here on Pearl Har- bor Day.

The original boundary of the Na- val Air Station, as it existed in December, 1941. was on a line from the present Lawrence Road, down "G" Street to the edge of Kaneohe Bay at the fish ponds.

Just east of that line and ex- tending to the site of the present main gate and covering 380 acres, lay the fish and game farm established by the Territory in 1921, and maintained until the outbreak of WWII.

By the end of 1941 over 51,000 birds occupied cages and pens within the game farm area.

Some cages were broken open during the attack on the station. and 14,409 birds were killed or es- caped.

After the raid 28,000 more birds were liberated and. in anticipation cd a food shortage, the remg 9.000, mostly pheasants. were put on the commercial market.

From a small beginning in 1931, the Mokapu farm grew to produce about 800 birds annually by the '30's.

In 1931. electric incubators re- placed brood hens, and the capa- city was raised to 10,000 birds a year.

While pheasants were the princi- pal birds raised. quail and partridge were also produced for in- troduction throughout the islands.

Game conservation was inactive here until 1954 when the Air Sta- tion. by then Marine Corps. entered a cooperative contract with the Territorial Game and Fish Com- mission.

At that time. the entire peninsula occupied by the station became an experiments game management area

The reservation was planted with bob-white and California quail chukker partridge. ring-neck pheasants and axis deer.

A seven-mile food strip was laid down in the Ft. Base area. The 20-foot-wide strip, together with stringent predator cuntrc,". measures is designed to create attractive homesites for the birds.
