longed to Waterloo almost as much
as they did to those in the big
Teather-beaten frame house at the
corner of Ankeny and Adams streets.
And Waterloo was Just as proud
OF the boys, who enlisted after Pearl
Harbor to avenge a pal killed there,
rs the graying, middle-aged couple
who go about their regular work
with little hope-but still hope

The boys were on the cruiser Ju-

she declined to identity, telling how
George, %, the eldest, had died on
q raft, and adding that Francis, 27;
Joseph, "a; Madison, %, and Albert,

She still hopes he may have been

probably the greatest ever suffered
