GEOGRAPHICAL CONCEPT - For purposes of Operation CLEAR RIDGE the island of Kauai is considered to be the tip of a land peninsula known as KAHAR. Theoretically, KAHAR has been invaded by aggressor forces from CAYNOM, a belligerent nation that borders KAHAR on the north. Ships of Amphibious Group Three and Leath- ernecks of the 1st Marine Brigade have been ordered to land in the Barking Sands area to drive the invaders back across the border and to restore control to the KAHAR government. The aggressor forces, however, are in an ideal position with command of the high ground.

BARKING SANDS ASSAULT-Arrows point the way Leathernecks of the Ist Marine Brigade will attack Kauai on Sunday, Sept. 20. Main action of the amphibious assault, tabbed CLEAR RIDGE, will take place in the Barking Sands area between the Kokole Point Lighthouse and the town of Kekaha. From the air, a battalion of helicopter-borne Marine infantrymen will swoop down on the high ground behind the beaches and attempt to dislodge an entrenched "aggressor" force. Activities at Red Beach will be limited to a "paper war" with all forces being committed constructively there to add realism to the maneuvers.

constant threat to KAHAR since her independence has been the an- tagonism evinced by CAYNOM, a country which lies on KAHAR's border, and which is economically and politically supported by an anti-Western Bloc.

Techniques Are Stressed At Kauai

Operation CLEAR RIDGE is an amphibious exercise conducted by units of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and the Fleet Marine Force, Pacific (FMFPac). This operation Is based on the commitment of a Marine Brigade, acting as part of a Naval Task Force in assisting a friendly nation in destroying an Aggressor invader.

Fleet Marine Force, Pacific, par- ticipation involves over 3,000 men of the Marine Brigade, composed of the 4th Marine Regiment =(infan- try), 3rd Battalion 12th Marines (artillery), Marine Helicopter Transport Squadron 181 and Serv- ice Battalion (logistic support), plus certain organic and attached com- bat support and combat service elements, stationed at Kaneohe Bay Some support units and helicopters are from California based units.

Editor's Cosner "DON'T BE A JOINER"

Occasionally you read in the paper about a government work- er having been fired as a security risk. If yours is the normal reaction, you will immediately write off the man or woman involved as a deliberate member of a subversive group, intent upon securing national secrets for transmission to enemy coun- tries.

Often, however, this is probably not the case at all. There have been many cases of this nature in which there has been a strong indication that the person fired was merely a dupe . . . a nice guy who liked to join clubs and associations just because his friends were in them . . . and if you asked him the purpose of the dub he couldn't tell you.

Military men have a tendency to join many fraternal and services clubs wherever they might be stationed. Many of them join clubs because they have a sincere desire to improve com- munity relations with their respective commands, but many also join as an excuse to find friends in a strange city.

Knowing this tendency among us. the drum-beaters for subver- sive organizations with respectable sounding titles make special efforts to enlist us in their membership . . . and then use our names and service connections proof to others that theirs is a worthwhile organization.

Before you join any club which is not nationally known as a legitimate one, be sure you cheek for the following.

Who are the officers and members and what do they stand for?

What are the bylaws, the constitution, the aims:' How does their literature read? Any confusing statements? Do their actual activities bear out their stated purposes?

And another important point to consider! Don't let the title fool you.

Here are a few titles front the Attorney General's list of Un- American Activities. You have a signed statement in your record hook to ensure the Marine Corps that you never belonged to them:

American Christian Nationalist Party American League for Peace and Democracy Committee for World Youth Friendship and Cultural

Exchange National Committee for Freedom of the Press Protestant War Veterans of America Washington Committee to Defend the Bill of Rights l'oice of Freedom Committee YOU SEE YOU CAN'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER

Don't put yourself in the humiliating position of trying to explain to any authority, either military or civilian, that you enrolled in that club. To paraphase an old adage. LOOK BEFORE YOU JOIN.

My Job

"If a nation values anything more than freedom, it wil lose its freedom; and the irony of it is that if it is comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that too."

-W. Somerset Maugham

Wise words of a wise old party who witnessed the fall of France. Could it happen to America? Not if every one of us sets himself to guarding the liberty we cherish.

Have you asked yourself, "My Job: Protecting Amer- ica's Freedom"-what is it? Have you mailed your letter on this theme to Freedoms Foundation, Valley Forge, Pa.? You stand to receive as much as $1,000 or one of the other 100 cash awards in this year's Letters Contest. Don't wait until the Nov. 1 deadline-do it now!

Chaplain's Corner The P By.CHAPLAIN C. M. MERSHON

In the Korean conflict, military leaders were shocked to learn that among the American prisoners o. war only five percent completely observed what has now become the Presidential Code of Conduct by refusing a n y collaboration. An alarming percent actively collab- orated and helped the enemy and there were many marginal instances of betrayal.

After an intensive study of the behavior of captured American ser- viceman, the Chief of Intelligence of the Chinese People's Army fighting in N. Korea made these observations: "The American ser- vicemen has weak loyalties to his family, his community, his country. his religion and to fellow service- men. His concepts of r Lilt and wrong are 'hazy'; bpportunis n is easy-he underestimates his own work, his strength and his ability to survive. Lest you think this is exaggerated a Marine Major who was a prisoner of the Communists reported that out of every three American prisoners of war, one was a "Canary"-one who gave vital information to the enemy.

Some events more recent than Korea have also dramatically called attention to the moral peril of our lard. FBI figures reveal that 1958

saw a 10 per cent increase in crime over the previous year Military leaders state that if the present trend continues, in a short time one out of every two boys called for mili- tary duty will have to be rejected because of his criminal record.

James Russell Lowell was asked. "How long do you think the Ameri- can Republic will endure?" Lowell replied, "So long as the ideas of its founding fathers continue to be dominant." The basis of all our American way of the is the basis given us by a vital religious faith of our fore-fathers.

There can be no democracy, no liberty, no justice nothing which we call the Golden Rule, without a living faith in Almighty God and obedience to his commands.

How many of us live our lives trying to ignore this fact and thus we are doing our bit to undermine this great nation of ours. It is up to us whether we'll go on to new heights as a nation or collapse from our own failure and indifference.

Our next luncheon. October 6 at the 0' Club, will be of special in- terest to all flower lovers-and who isn't in this land of lovely blooms?

Eleanor Arita, well-known teacher of Japanese flower arrang- ing, will be our guest speaker. She will do several arrangements for us and give us many ideas of what beautiful things can be done with Island flowerS. Japanese flower arranging is truly an art and we will all enjoy seeing the delightful re- sults of Mrs. Arita's skill.

At the Executive Board meeting Tuesday at Mrs. Fontana's member- ship cards were discussed. It is hoped the Drive can be completed in October, so rty not to forget that $2.50 dues come the 6th. Many thank to those of you who attended to this at the last meeting! Please do put the cards in your purses as it will be required to show them. Remember, there will be an extra 25 cents charge for your luncheon If you don't have it. Fore-warned is fore-armed!

ACTCPL. MATT DENSON, Sta- tion Security: I'd like to see more ews concerning

Marines. Not on- ly the men sta- ionedaboard MCAS but those at other bases here in the Is- ands. It is a good

paper but I think more space should be devoted to the Service- men and their dependents. ACTCPL. DONALD CARVER, Hq.Sq. Office: I'd like to see a liberty log con- sisting of places to go and things to see. It would also be of great

,interest to have information o n

Marines involved in auto accidents and then to stress safety aboard the station. ACTSGT. ALFREDO FALCON,

Food Services: I

think the newspa- per has good all around coverage. It has enough va- riety so that it is of interest to a great number of people instead of

'just a select few. I don't recommend any additions or deletions.

Letters To Dear Editor:

Being an old time aviation me- chanic. I read last week's article on the conversation between the two mechanics' theory on why the rocket failed to launch properly.

Like I said, I'm an old time avia- tion mechanic who has watched the air arm of the Marine Corps pro- gress since the World W,.r H days of the Corsair. Keeping abreast with the changes in aviation has required a lot of technical reading on my part.

I believe the conversation you overheard between these two, so- called mechanics, was just the talk of a couple of beatnicks. In theory what actually happened when the rocket failed to function properly was caused by the UMBILICAL CORD or any one of the servicing fluid or electrical lines connecting a rocket or missile with the ground units. It is quickly deatched at launching time.

NAME WITHHELD Editor's Note: Thank you for

your very informative letter. but I feel you have been reading the

PFC. JOHN BRINKtv+AN, HqSq. Office: I'd like to see a few things:: add ed to the sports pages. I

think there should be a run down on the major league teams and espe- cially now that the world series is coming up. The way the leading teams are bouncing around is of great interest to many.

attention of the personnel of the Kaneohe Bay Marine Corps Air Station. that recently Sgt. Ronald J. Hamilton offered the services of the Aku Marines in diving for coral to be sold by our group for the benefit of Chapter No. 7 School for Retarded Children in Kailua. The Aku Marines presented us with over one hundred very lovely pieces of coral and within the past week we have sold $72.70 worth, and hope to realize up to $100 on the project. The response from the public has been very fine indeed.

We felt that this was a most gen- erous offer of the Aku Marines and we were especially pleased with the way in which Sgt. Hamilton handled his contact with us, and we commend hint for R.

Horse Housing Headache Has Homesite Hearing

The housing picture is also improving at the KIlay Marine Corps Air Station, for its equine and canine population, Station Public Works officials have -announced that preparation of the new site for the Special Services Stables and Kennels will begin here Monday.

HMR-161 Pilots

Qualify With 300

Carrier Landings Helicopter pilots from Marine

Helicopter Squadron-161, made over 300 landings aboard the recently converted helicopter carrier PRINCETON last Friday.

These carrier landings were made in preparation for Operation Cigar Ridge which will take place on the island of Kauai.

The "choppers" were flying eight in a pattern and touching down four at a time. The pilots accom- plished their goal in approximately two and one half hours.

In order to qualify on a carrier, each pilot had to make at least 10

landings. All of the squadron pilots qualified.

The "big Push" for operation Clear Ridge will begin Sunday morn- ing, Sept. 20.

In addition to copiers and pilots of liMR-161, the landing force will be supported by a number of Third Marine Aircraft Wing helicopters.1

Ensign Robert H. Shackelford of PW, who has been assigned the res- ponsibility for the move, said that demolition of the present site and relocation of the Stables proper will probably start within the near fu- ture.

At present the Stables and ken- nels are located in a building near the Fort Hese area. Current plans call for their relocation about a half-mile further up the "rifle range road" (Irwin St. exension).

An area near the base of a hill will be leveled for the new site and as many trees as possible will be left standing to retain the natural beauty of the area. When completed the stables will be nestled in the hi lside, almost completely hidden from view.

Plans also call for an oblong build- ing with the kennels located at one end and the office and tack room at the other. Stalls in the new building will be increased to 16 from the former 12 at the current location.

Ensign Shackelford also pointed out that the horse stalls will be open with eight on either side of the building, The open stalls will pro- vide better ventilation and thereby cut. down on the insect nuisance.

Michigan Town

Recruiter Dream Seven Marines from Utica, Michi-

gan, who are now serving with the Ist Marine Brigade at the Marine Corps Air Station, Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii provided a classic example of the modern-day trend toward "shrinking the world".

Everyone who has been in military service at one time or another runs into another serviceman from his own hometown. Here at the Marine Corps Air Station, however, it seems that hometown aquaintances are abundant, at least those from Utica, Michigan, a town of 5,000 residents.

Seven Marines from Utica joined the Corps at different times and all of them now have been assigned to the 1st Marine Brigade in Hawaii.

The group's presence went un- noticed by people who watch for such things for almost a year. Last month Sgt. Gary V. Corbett of MACS-2 met one of the other Marines from Utica through a mu- tual friend and through him found there were a few more Uticans on the Station. He set out to find them.

After accomplishing this harder then you think task, he instigated a get-together party where all of them talked over old times.

Two of the men 'are married to girls from Utica. Sgt. Dames H. Jenereaux, his wife Dolores and tlwo daughters. Deborah; 5 and Judith Lynn; 3 live at 51316 Kam highway in Kaaawa, amout 20 miles from the Air Station, and Pfc. Law- rence A, Durckher and his wife Josephine reside at 47745-B Kam highway, in Kaneohe.

Private Richard R. Heidelburg rd LCpl. Gerry L. Webb met for

the first time last November when they pulled mess duty together. Pfc. Jerry L. Hershman was un- aware of h.a home town bud& s until he received a phone call from Sgt. Corbett last month.

The seven men grew up together in Utica. They attended Utica high school together and on occasion even dated each other's slaters.

Little did they realize that in later years they would meet again

The "aggressors" command all the high terrain and will be able to shift their troops to meet any major threat from the Landing Force. Approximately 10,000 Navymen and Marines are taking part in this major amphibious exercise. A similar problem "TRADE WINDS"' was

**Civil Service News** NEW PLAN ON JOB RATING Civil Service Commission's long-

delayed plan to scrap its Perfor- mance Rating Jae: has been sent to Congress. It asked that absentees be allowed to set up individual rating systems (several to an agency if nec- easary) to suit their own needs.

The proposed legislation would e- liminate Unsatisfactory ratings as a legal basis (but not as an actual basis) for dismissals or demotions; ab(nish the stautory boards of ap- peal that review contested ratings; and abolish the requirement for advance Commission approval of ag- ency rating plans.

Under the present system, agencies must use at least three ratings - Outsandings, Satisfactory and Un- tisfactory. In practice 97 to 99 per cent of employees are rated Satis- factory. In practiceETAOINSHRDL factory, Civil Service Commission said, adding "Criteria for Outstand- ing ratings are so high that super- visors have found that few such re- commendations could be justified."

If Congress approves the neveleg- islature Civil Service Commission said it will require that each employ- ee be informed of what is expected of him on the job, quit his perfor- mance be fairly appraised in the light of what is expected: that he be kept advised of the appraisals; and that written appraisal be given where appropriate.

"CICI'S" AWOL: LAZY CANINE PREFERS RIDING TO WALKING

Here is the most doggone story of an AWOL we've heard of in a long time. It sounds like a shaggy dog tale but it's true.

Mrs. Phillip Wulff called the WINDWARD MARINE this week and asked help in finding her little shaggy dog that ha, been missing since a week ago Sunday. She said the pooch is gray with white feet (paws?), spi- rited and answers to the name "Cici."

It seems that Cici apparently took off from Mrs. Wuiff's car while the dog's mistress was shopping in the Oneawa Super Market in Kailua. A few days later Mrs. Wulff re- ceived a L ..1 Irons a Marine officer's wife.

The Marine wife related that Cici apparently stowed away in her car in Kailua and had ridden back to the Air Station. She said she had given the dog a bath and did was OK.

Here's where the plot thickens. While awaiting Mrs. Wulff to

come and pick ur the dog at the K-Bay Marine home, Cici was taken for an airing. It was at this point that Cici escaped aboard the Sta- tion.

Mrs. Wulff is wondering where her little dog has gone. Cici, who much prefers riding to walking, may have stowed away aboard a Marine's car.

The Kailua woman is also worry- ing that perhaps her traveling shag- gy dog may now be sea-going with

the impending Operation CLEAR RIDGE.

K-Bay personnel are asked to keep on the lookout for Cici. Mrs. Wulff lives at 181 Makua St., Kailua and her phone number is 255-180.

She has also offered a reward for the return of her AWOL canine,

Former Marine Josh Cuibreath won a gold medal in the 403- 'meter hurdles which he com- pleted in the record time of 0:512 while Clifton Cushman of the Air Force picked up a bronze medal for finishing third. In the 10,000-meter run, the

Armed Forces were represented by Leatherneck Alex Breckenridge who finished sixth with a time of 31:40.6.

Another Games record fell when the Navy's Jeff Farrell was clocked at 0:56.5 in the 100-meter freestyle swim triaLs. The old mark was 0:57.5.

HEARING, SPEECH TEST BEING

CONDUCTED AT K-BAY SCHOOL Second grade students at K-Bay's Mokapu Eleneentary School

have been undergoing hearing tests this week. The tests are being conducted by sp.7cialists from the Department of Public Instruction.

Miss Joan Nakamura! a DPI speech and hearing specialist, stated that the purpose of the tests is to determine if the child's hear- ing is normal. If a youngster fails the first testing, he or she is given another one in about 10 days.

This re-testing is done because at the time of the first testing, the child may have been suffering from some minor ailment, such as a cold or ear ache, which may have tem- porarily impaired his hearing.

If the student falls the second testing, a more detailed test is administered. Should the child's hearing still be considered imper- fect, the parents are informed of the results along with a recom- mendation that the child's possible defect be called to the attention of doctors.

In addition to this, a check is kept upon a child who has imper- fect hearing in order to ascertain if the defect progresses and be- comes more serious in the child's school life.

Administering the tests this week with Miss Nakamura, was Mrs. Bev- erly Moskovitz, an audiometrist with the DPI.

In the testing, students wear ear-

phones which are connected to a device called an "audiometer." This machine produces sounds with a varying pitch and frequency which the child acknowledges to the per- son doing the testing.

According to Mrs. Moekoyitch, about five per cent of the students usually fail the initial test. In addi- tion to possible cold and eacr aches, this failure is often the result of outside noises or distractions.

Additional audiometric "screen tests" are administered to locate those who may have a genuine hear- ing defect.

Students of other grades who "might have" hearing defects will also be tested on the recommenda- tion of a teacher.

Miss Nakamura nos been as- signed to Mokapu for the first se- mester and will concentrate on speech therapy when the initial hearing tests are completed. She will be at the K-Bay school Tues- day and Thursday afternoons.

Students selected for the speech therapy classes will be those rec- ommended by teachers who believe these students may have speech de-

fects. The speech specialists will work

with some of the children needing help and will confer with the par- ents of others.

Miss Nakamura will give speech therapy both on a group and indi- vidual level.

STORK, AMBULANCE TEST SPEED ON MOKAPU ROAD

We may pot have the prettiest ambulances on the island aL Oahu, but by golly, we have the fasteat, and if you don't believe it, ask the stork.

This fact was proven last Monday Mokapu Rd.

It all began when a call was re- ceived at the Station Dispensary for medical assistance and an am- bulance. The call was not one of the routine "I think I'm sick" calls, but "I know I'm sick and you better hurry up."

The ambulance and medical crew was dispatched to the home of Pfc. and Mrs. Gene Nerine of 725 Ki- hapai St., Kailua at 9:30 am. One look at the patient, Mrs. Nerine, and there was no doubt as to the diagnosis of the case. The race was,. on.

The stork took a slight lead at the gate when the ambulance slowed down, but the lead was soon taken over again by the ambulance on the Mokapu Rd. straight away.

Thirty-five minutes later, the Nerine family was increased by one, a bouncing baby boy delivered at the Station Dispensary by Dr. J W. Curtis.

Shortly after baby was born, mother and son were transferred to Trip ler Army Hospital, "both doing well."

Poor pop, a member of "Echo" Co., 2ndBn., 4th Marines doesn't know whether to start preparing baby formula or draw "C" rations for the Kauai landing.

BARSTOW, Calif. - If the first hundred years are the hardest, then Hubert Tecumseh Miller should be starting a century of ease. Instead, the alert 100-year-old desert resi- dent last week applied at the Industrial Relations Office for a job as a laborer "so that I can get some money for Christmas" as he put it. He is the oldest applicant ever in- terviewed at the Center's IRO and is believed to be the oldest ever to apply for a job in the history of Civil Service.

After setting fire to a mock fuselage soaked in hundreds of gallons of highly inflamable fuels, the helicopters approached from various altitudes, angles of descent, and wind directions. Up until the present time, no method of extinguish- ing the fire has been found since the propwash scatters water. foam s ra and other fi e-fi htin i H the fl . p y r g g agenc es. ow ever. e ames can be shoved in a desired direction away from the cockpit of 410492' ----- the burning craft long enough for the crash crew members to get the pilot out.
