VETERANS MEET The Veterans of World War I, McHenry barracks, will hold their next meeting Thursday, March 7, at 2 p.m. at the Legion home, Ringwood road. (by Father Wm. O. Hanner) We were on a sort of Amtrak trip so we went by train from Los Angeles to San Diego. The great railroad station in Los Angeles is the last huge train terminal to be built. It was finished in the late thirties. Today it stands cavernous and little used -- the shops long closed -- no place to buy a paper -- a sad reminder of a once teeming spot. One whole car on the train was filled with little black boys and girls. They were about second or third grade. The car was a noisy, exuberant, speeding primary class room. The teachers had the kids singing and exercising in their seats. I imagined they were on their way to San Diego. But no, the whole kit and kaboodle unloaded at the first stop. Their busses were outside the train. They were going by bus back where they had qome from. In trooped another whole car load of fresh eight-year-olds. Off they got down the line at the next towfi only to be replaced by a third car full. I had to know more about this! So I hailed a bright young teacher and made inquiries. "Oh!" she squealed, "isn't it fun "! These children are all being given their first train ride. I have never been on a train before in my life. I am so thrilled. The children just love it. This is a 'learning by ex­ perience' class. They are learning what it is like to ride on a train. I am so excited!" It seemed to me they had a 3,006 idea but it was an awful lot of dither for a ten-mile train ride. By the time we got to San Diego about ten cars full had been in and out. Several hun­ dred children got their first train trip that day. We sensed at once when we got into San Diego that our motel was too far out for practicality. I cancelled and we took rooms in a small, clean motel, very inexpensive nearer to downtown. It was beside a bigger and more modern one so we had the good big motels restaurants but the prices of small, clean ones. $12.00 a night! Pretty good today! You do not need to stay in a motel when there is as much to do as there is in San Diego. ?r A;* S * /"Si spuroeons Put a bounce in your step-- a new look on your feet!

It is the oldest settlement in California. The Cabrillo National monument at the south end of Point Loma commemorates the landing of Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in 1542.

He gave us an excellent>map of the city and the bus routes in and through it. Each bus as you board it has a little holder with the times and schedules of the operation of that route. We used the buses almost entirely. The city cab system was, however, clean, prompt and inexpensive. We used it four or five times. They answered calls quickly when we moved in and out with out baggage. We took the buses out to La Jolla where we called on an alumnus of my seminary, Father Bob Wolterstorff. He has just been elected the first bishop of our new diocese of San Diego and will be con­ secrated March 30. We took the buses over to Coronado across the huge bay bridge. All over the California coast the ferries are disappearing, replaced now by tremendous long and in­ tricate bridges that are the marks of the skylines of San Diego and San Francisco.

Here are modern developments like the Shelter and Harbor Islands in the bay. Once they were piles* of refuse from the clearing of the harbor. Today they are lush with resort hotels and public boating facilities. It is easy for a visitor who is careless to get about in San Diego. The San Diego Transit corporation provides clean, well marked buses. They will take you anywhere in the whole area for 25cents; Mayor Daley, take notice! We came out of our motel after we had gotten settled to do the town. We did not know where bus stops were or the signs that indicated them.
