ST. CLAIR SHORES - The

brought him was clutched In the
hands of crippled Walter Os-
borne as he sat next to . decor
ated Christmas tree in the Roy
J. Kaul residence Monday eve-
ming, surrounded by his wife
and six children.
Osborne's gift was far less at
tractive in appearance than the
dolls and toys his children held
lovingly In their arms, but the
legal-appearing papers the excl
held mean happiness and future
security to the entire family.
It was the deed to q new
home, valued at about $4,000
and attached to it were legal
articles signed by officerssof the
Dads Service Club presenting
the structure to MIR. and Mrs
Osborne.
The home is at Gladstone and
Gordon avenues, adjoining the
once condemned garage type
home into which Osborne and
his brood had been crowded
when generous Shorians discov-
cred their plight. The new
home Is fast nearing completion
and will be ready for occupan-
cy in the spring.
The presentation to Osborne
was made at the Roy j. Kaul
residence after the Osbornes and
their children had been feted at
Christmas tree party by Mrs.
Kaul and the Kaurs daughter,
Donna, age IL.
Gifts for the Osborne children
were distributed, followed by
"the greatest gift Of ALL" the
deed to q home.
1t was q happy and blessed oc-
casion for the wheelchair veter-
IN who was paralyzed after head
wounds at St. Lo, Normandy
Tears filled the eyes of Mrs. Os-
borne and the young children,
who have never known, the
blessings of a real home, thrilled
to the expectation Of rooms OF
their own, space for real living
and proper conveniences.
Presentation of the deed was
made by Kaul. and the Dad.
Service Club dedication, written
by Justice Joseph F. Mcdowell
was read by Mcdowell. The lat.

ney and writer of their constitu.

The simple ceremony was wit
messed by Peter J. Platte, presi-
dent of the Dads Service Club;
John p. Ryan, president of the
United Council of Clubs of st.
Clair Shores, and Tom Dickman,
contractor, who is Osborne S
father-in-law.
r. j. Francis, Shores business
man, presented the Osbornes
with q three-year insurance pol
icy on their new home, a policy
now in effect.
A motorist stopped his car
and hurried to the front door
Of the Roy ]. Kaul residence
on Christmas Day. To Mrs.
kaul, who answered the door,
he handed SIS in cash. "Give
this to the Osborne family"
he said, and flatly refused to

Car Trunk Open
On Wronq Auto

A 33-year-old Stoneham Mass.)
Marine had an adventure this week,
the kind that usually occurs in a
nightmare.
T/Sergt. Gordon D. Marston, a
veteran of the Pacific war with
four battle stars, borrowed another
Marines car to take several suit
cases to an express agency for ship
ment. He put the luggage in the
trunk of the pale blue car. He
knew it was the right auto because
it had Ohio license plates.
He parked on H street NV. and
went into the agency to check ship
ping costs. When he came out to
get the luggage, the trunk refused
to open.
He called the other Marine for
instructions.
Go get a hammer and bat the
handle a few times" the other
Leatherneck told him.
Sergt Marson got a hammer and
began to bludgeon the trunk of a
blue car with Ohio tags. A crowd
of sidewalk superintendent"
gathered to watch
Eventually, the lock broke, the
trunk came open-and Sergt. Mar
ston's face began to turn purple.
