Nearly 700 miles from our home base we
had hit Lac smack on the button.
Lac Atoll needed only Dorothy Lamour to
be the movie version of Pacific paradise.
Everything was there: the grass shacks. the
tall coconut trees, the bright coral beach -
all compressed into a space that seemed
scarcely larger than,a good sand-lot diamond
back home.
1--WE departed from beautiful Lac
as they say in the travelogues. only to sneak
in on Bikini Atolt, l82 miles due north. Have
YOU ever seen two girls walking together,
one breathtakingly beautiful, the other
strictly from q barrel of dills? That was
Lac and Bikini!
Bikini is the ugliest, most forsaken atoll in
the Gilberts and Marshalls (discounting those
utterly destroyed by Naval gmfire). Birds?
The few moth-eaten sea gulls that flew around
were nasty individuals who looked like castoffs
from a taxidermists' college. Instead of tall
coconut trees there were scrub bushes and
rotten stumps, their naked branches covered
with a growth resembling Spanish moss.
Come to think of it, that's libelng Spanish
moss. This was more like giant spider web
clinging to everything.
Locks Lilss Broke. Garter
lHE pictures that we're shot that day
showed the lagoon to be good Is miles from
east to west and some Is miles north to
south The atoll itself is very narrow strip
of land not quite surrounding the lagoon.
From the air it looks exactly like discarded,
broken garter floating in great pool of water.
Most of the land is scarcely wide enough for
a jeep road. and no place is more than city
block or two across There isn't enough land
(or coraD above sea level to put up good
sized Boy Scout camp.
As for people, we saw no one. But we sus-
pected there we're few pairs of eyes watching
us from the ground because of something
else we spotted a gutted Betty, a twin-engine
Japanese bomber that looks somewhat like
our own B-25's
1t was obvious that the crew had made a
forced landing on the beach at low tide. The
chances of rescue were slim. Anyone who
survived the crash landing, we thought was
very possibly still there, living on gull's eggs
and sea food We couldn't see them, but,
crouching in coral foxholes, they could have
been watching us as we roared low over

these islands between here and here" He
pointed to the atoll and the name of the atoll

''Japanese?" asked.
We'll find out" he said Eve head first

course for any navigator"

DRD LOVERS, relax!
ID Imean the folks who are worried about
what is going to happen to Bikini Atoll this
May, when the Navy plans to anchor small
feet there and atom-bomb it.
They are protesting that the birds should
be evacuated, while some other people are
even worried about destruction of the atoH
itself.
Well, can assure them that if Bikini is
wiped off the map birds and all - it will
be no great loss to anyone :. . except maybe
to the crew of what was once a japanese
bomber.

Determined To See Key West

to what hotel he was going. The
man replied like a flash: Hotel?

Many odd and amusing things
occur during political campaigns.
Many tricks and articles are
originated by petty local politi-
clans in their efforts to become
office holders and enjoy the per-
quisites appertaining thereurlto.
One of the most adroit and in
genious of such articles that ever
came to the attention of this jad-
ed writer occurred about 20 years
ago. A shrewd sheriff of a small
West Florida county was can
didate for reelection. His oppon-
ent was very strong. The Sher-
ifs election hinged upon the
vote of small precinct in the
southern section of the county,
so close was the race. The vote
of this particular precinct was
largely controlled by an old man,
who was infinitely ignorant but
possessed of very stubborn polit-
ical convictions.
This old man was bitterly op-
posed to the sheriff. He had re-
pulsed the sheriff's every friend
ly advance. Election day was
near at hand. The vote of this
particular precinct would determ-
inc the outcome of the election.
The sheriff was in dire straits.
While conditions were thus,
the sheriff happened to pass the
patriarch's farm on a political err
rand. His car was several hun
dred yards beyond the farm house
when he eSpied an old SOW stand
ing motionless in the middle of
the road, with a large litter of
pigs close by. A daring plan,
conceived in desperation and born
of necessity, entered the Sheriff's
head. He gave his powerful car
all the gas, Whereupon it shot
forward with great speed. 1t
struck the the senile old swine
midway between the bow and the
stern. She crumpled and crack
ed like an egg shell under the
impact of a sledge hammer. There
remained not enough, in one
piece, of the old pork producer
to make sandwich for a circus
midget.
The sheriff drove slowly back
to the house of the hostile old
farmer. He stepped out of his
car and walked at a funeral pace
to the front door and called the
owner of the deceased SOW. Then,
with simulated grief that would
have done credit to paid mourn
er, he told the tragic tale of the
gruesome accident. In the course
of the recital he spoke sorrow
fully of the tender maternal quail
tiles of the recent sow, her pro-
ductivity, her prospects, her pigs,
her past, and her future-but for
the accident. He concluded by
offering to pay any price for the
slain swine. The old. farmer
named a pretty stiff price, where
upon the sheriff handed him
twice the amount.
1t is needless to say he carried
that precinct and was reelected.
BY such strange Stratagems and
odd articles, the sheriff kept him
self in office for nearly sixteen

trains were composed of flat cars
upon which steel-bound cypress
tanks were built. Later ordi-
nary steel tank cars were used.
The floors of the hotel cisterns,
the foundation or retaining walls,
tops and partitions are built of
cement heavily reinforced with
steel. In the building itself there
is, however, no reinforcing except
in the lintels that span the door
and window openings.
The lintels are given strength
by rods buried in Is inches of
concrete - a cement stone and
sand mixture. The rock for. use
in pouring the lintels was brought
in cars from waste piles along
the Miami canal; the sand from
Lake Wales.
All house floors are of REIN
forced concrete. All main walls
and partitions Of Casa Marina
were poured between hard pine
forms or moulds, with native
rock. The delicate shells of the
coral insects show on the exposed
surfaces everywhere. The ma
terial was secured by dredging in
the harbor at the Extension term
inal on Trumbo. The quality was
so good that no sand was required
in the mix.
Walls of Coral Rock
The hotel walls are battered
in"-they recede in thickness
from % inches at the foundation
line to IL inches at the roof or
+, plate. wherever wood con-
struction is applied to the con-
crete, bolts tie the materials to-
gether.
While the hotel is three stories
high the upper floors of the east
wing are cleverly designed at a
different level from the sleeping
floors and corridors of the main
building, as well as the floors of
the west wing above the dining
! hall. The casual observer does
not notice the variations in floor
, level. They are compensated for
by short staircases and sideways
for trunks and chests.
Object of the architects was to
allow for the beautifully designed
ceilings in the ballroom, lobby
and dining hall.
