/ $ WHISPERING OAKS Gertrude Dianey LIFE BACK TO NORMAL AFTER BUSY HOLIDAYS After the Christmas lights and glitter have been put away, things are back to normal again and some folks are now thinking of the South land. Who will go is another story. Some of the animals have found a lot of courage since the deep snow and food is scarce. TTiey come to our back doors for suet, and get it. Mr. and Mrs. Pheasant did that very thing and then they strut off, you can see the imprints of their tail feathers in the snowi We have some clever squirrels out here who have been able to solve the food problem by walking the tight wire on which the bird feeder • is suspended between two trees. The sun flower seeds in the feeder offer the needed inducement to perform this fete. SON MOVES Our son, Grant Disney, is coming to dinner with some of his friends, Ruby Serving from England and a friend John I^w from Chicago. He & bringing some of his excess home furnishings to store here, for he is leaving his quarters in Marina City to move to his new home in the new Lake Point Tower at 505 N. Lake Shore Drive. He 385-7515 will be able to se_e all the incoming vessels from all over the world. We will also get to view this plus the wonderful view of the lake and all its interesting activities. VISITS MOTHER I am going to spend several days with my mother in Wausaw, Wis., who will be 90years old and plan a birthday partyfor her and have all her old (rlends in to dinner, so my column will be short for this time, but-I will be around soon again. OUR TMP OUT WEST (cont.) While we were in Long Beach, we contacted some old friends - of ours who had moved west a few years ago and now live in Saugus, Calif. Of course we had no idea where Saugus was located geographically but in consulting the map we found it to be north east of Los Angeles in the San Bernadino Mountains, up towards Bakersfield. We found this to be 70 miles from where we were staying in Long Beach and since we were now "grounded" the boys having gone on to San Diego to visit friends of theirs, we felt that it would be quite difficult to reach such supposedly remote area so far away so we decided to settle with a visit by phone, but Madeline, our friend, insisted that Such unusual and reasonable ESKIMO - I NDIANI - SWEDISH JAPANESE arid many more. . .

Service, News Spec./4 Tom Hamil, son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Hamil of 4808 W. Bonner, McHenry, was among U. S. servicemen engaged in a dramatic and dangerous . confrontation with the enemy at the Oasis (4th infantry), Vietnam. Reports reaching this country recently said an NVA sapper squad met violent death when it tried to penetrate the bunker defense line, the headquarters of the Ivy division's 3rd brigade. Capt. Schley J. Frazer, commahder of the armored battathey would gladly drive down and pick us up for a visit with them, so on Sunday morning, Bill, her husband, picked us up and drove us out there. On the way w<3 stopped at tte Hollywood branch of Oak LaWn Cemetery and went to see "The Birth of Liberty" which is a large picture of a series of events of the Revolutionary War done in Mosaic Tile. It is 165 feet long and 30-feet high and contains over 10 million pieces of Venetian Glass. It is out in the open, but has a large auditorium in connection with it, where they give an hourly program with a descriptive recording describing the events leading up to and during the Revolutionary War. One can learn more in one hour of early American history than in school. Very impressive. We then drove, on to Saugus which is located in a valley between two mountains and is really nothing but a wide spot in the middle of the road, in the middle of the desert. However, they are developing a nice subdivision there, where our friends have a beautiful new home. While it is now in the process of construction and all sand and dirt, it will be a beautiful place when completed. With the introduction of water the desert will bloom and plants thrive. Most beautiful plants grow- there and so easy with no-effort. ...

Spec./4 Hamil, referring to a deadlined truck adding firepower to the fray, "We had our tank in for repairs with the 1st of the 69th. It was unable to produce its own power, so everything had to be run manually." That one tank and the efforts of its crew were credited with playing an important role in the enemy's defeat. Its Are proved to be more than the enemy could handle. Minutes later, artillery fire finished mopping up the enemy. The next morning, nine enemy lay dead in front of the bunkers.
