Maj. GiIIiIand
Lays Plans for
Biz Game Hunting

Big game hunting after the war
is included in present plans of Ma
jor c.. A. (Cotton) Gilliland now
serving with the marines in the
Pacific.
In spite of his war duties, Major
Gilliland retains the same interest
in sports which characterized his
brilliant athletic career in school
in FL Centre.
In a letter to his father, j. C.
Gilliland, visiting in El Centro from
Ell Reno, Oklahoma, Major Gill
land said in part:
MY wound was not serious at all
and has caused me little trouble. 1
was confined in a hospital for about
three weeks and then released My
leg is in perfect condition now and
I am sure the wound will never give
me any trouble. In fact, have been
playing basketball and football the
last two weeks Y. The injury was
just below my knee on the right
leg. 1t was bullet wound enter
ing the back part of my leg and
coming out the right side. The
wound was clean and healed in
few days. l was never bedridden.
In fact 1 gave the doctors and
nurses SO much trouble running
around that they almost locked me
up.
HOW WOUNDED
Dad, suppose you are curious
as to how 1 received the wound so
l will tell you little about it. There
was young fellow out in front of
me during our battle just off the
beach and he was injured by two
mortar fragments. ran out for
him and was dragging him back to
cover when one of those rice eating,
slant eyed little characters popped
up out of gopher hole and shot me
through the leg. Well, I upheld the
Gilliland tradition and flipped two
grenades into his hole. No more
trouble from him.
you must have seen the pictures
of the boys planting the flag on Mt.
Suribachi Well, those fighting lit
tie raScals were in my outfit and did
a most heroic job of taking that
strong point. have never seen such
acts of heroism as we're displayed
in that battle only wish that the
families of those boys knew what
happened and how their sons faced
death unflinchingly. Then their
pride and respect Wc17c,!d be as great
as mine.
MEETS FRIEND
Il had quite surprise tie other |
day. went to the boxing matches |
and who should sit down beside me
but Stacey Morgan. Remember, he |
is Herman's younger brother. Stacey
is fine looking six footer and a
marine officer. He has been flying
the past two years and I am sure
he must be quite pilot from what
the boys say =. have been stay
ing out here with him for a few
days
Don't worry about me because
everything is fine and 1 will be ok.
Actually things here are much bet
ter than in the States. Plenty of
good food and liquor SO what more
could I ask j..
1--WE always have wanted to go big
game hunting and when this busi-
ness is over we will go. I've got all
the arrangements made and it's 60
ing to be swell. The fellow who will
make the arrangements is a forest
ranger from Wyoming. He is an ex-
marine paratrooper -.

Walker Shipyard
Begins Work On
Large River Boat

Contract for construction of a
110-foot 1000 horsepower river
towboat of the most powerful
type being used on American riv-
ers was awarded the F. B. Walk
err and Sons Shipbuilding Com
panv of Pascagoula in successful
bidding against some of the cum
try's largest manufacturers of
this type craft.
The local yard has already be-
gun construction of the vessel,
which is scheduled for compile
ton early in 1916. According to
Johnnie Walker, official of the
company, only three more DOW
erful river boats of this type are
now in service. The boat will
measure 80 feet in beam and IL
feet from deck to keel, and will
have an all-welded steel hull. 1t
will be powered by two 1000
horsepower super-diesel engines,
and will be rated at 400 tons. 1t
will be capable of IL knots, and
will carry a crew of twenty.
The contract was given by the
Berwick Bay Towing Company
of New Orleans which will use
the craft to push barge-loads OF
oil and gasoline to Pittsburgh.
1t will push approximately Is
rectangular sled-type steel barg-
es together, carrying a total OF
$4,000 tons of cargo.
Mr.. Walker said that his yards
are in good position to continue
successful bidding for this type
of construction and that he hopes
to continue this work in the com
ing postwar period. Barge ano
towing companies which were
unable to get priority for new
construction during the critiea,
months of the war are now hav.
ing greater success getting these
permits, At present the yard is
also building a $50 horsepower
tug boat, and 1870 and 200-foot
all-welded steel barges. The riv-
er tow boat on which construe-
ton has begun will be the first
vessel of this type completed
south of Nashville.
