Two Jima was the biggest pile
Of rubbish ever saw"
"And", added Happy Jack
Masterson, GIVE seen some big
piles Of rubbish.
Masterson Is a robust, good-na-
tured buck sergeant VINO went IN
on Two Jima February % or D
plus 4 day. His outfit was Signal
Corp attached to Air Corp landed
behind Marine troops to set up
radar operations before the Japs
had chance to hit back from the
air.
1.-THE terrain on Iwo," he contin-
ued, "was all volcanic ash and
although it was easy to dig, you
couldn't form anything out OF it.
You'd get your foxhole about waist
deep and it would cave in"
1.-The way things turned out,
however, this soft ash saved us a
lot of casualties. The effectiveness
Of the Jap mortars was greatly
reduced because they'd dig into
the ground before exploding.
Happy Jack has been overseas
since October, 1871. He was sta
toned on the Oahu, T. H. very
near Pearl Harbor when the Ja2s
staged their sneak attack.
Comparing the climate in Ha-
wall to Two Jima's, he commented:
eve were surprised to find it
:, much colder than it had been in
the Hawaiian Islands. It was cold
enough to wear jacket during
the day and, at night, we really
had to bundle up"
Questioned further, he said:
water got short like it uoually
does on those operations. We ra-
toned a gallon per man per day
for all purposes. The water was
obtained from Navy salt water
distilling units brought ashore by
the seabees."
Happy Jack handled food ration.
ing and water supply for his com.
pany. The food consisted Of K and
c rations.
He left Two Jirna on the 23rd
of March and came back to the
United States on the Army rotation
plan.
Asked about future plans; Happy
Jack looked extremely Happy and
replied: II have a hundred points
and life begins at 85."

CHURCH TO NOTE
SECOND BIRTHDAY

The congregation Of the First
Christian church, South Third ano
Ann streets, will observe the second
anniversary of the dedication Of
it's new church Sunday by paying
off the $729.59 balance of the in
debtedness on the building, the
Rev. James Lawson, pastor, said
yesterday. In making this final
payment, the church will have
completed the financing Of its $50,
600 new building program begun
three years ago.
The construction Of the new
building was started March 10, 1912
and the completed building was
dedicated May 16, 1943. At the
time of dedication, the congrega-
ton owed $4,000 on the building.
A loan for this amount was secured
at that time from the Church Elk
tention board Of the Disciples OF
Christ. During the past two years,
monthly offerings and two special
campaigns have made possible the
reducing of the principal on this
loan. The special committe of the
church, leading the campaign to
pay the final payment next Sunday,
is composed of H. L. Britt, D. H.
Crenshaw, S. M. Daniel, K. E.
Johnson, and Paul T. Marshburn.
The Rev. Mr.. Lawson will con.
duct the special anniversary serv'
ice Sunday morning at II o'clock.
"A special musical program will be
rendered by the choir, with Miss
Azalene Switzerland as choir di
rector, and Mrs. Louis E. Keith as
organist. The choir will sing ar
anthem, Zone Sweetly Solemn
Thought" by Ambrose, and a solo,
''Bless This House." by Brahe
will be sung by Louis E. Keith.

Newport News Shipyard
Praised For Building
OF Bombed Naval Craft

The fact that the aircraft carrier
Franklin did not 60 down is a tri-

Dry Dock company, Naval officers
said yesterday.
The Virginia shipyard is the
parent firm of the North Carolina
Shipbuilding company here.
