PORTLAND, Greg, Aug. %
The Yankee sailor who lived like
Robinson Crusoe while surviving
on Japanese occupied Guam in
World War II has gone back to
the fleet.
Burly George Ray Tweed, now
4S and Navy veteran of % years,
has been recalled to active duty
after two years as a Stateside
landlubber. He returns as a chief
electronics technician.
Eventually, Chief Tweed may
be assigned to the Far Western
Pacific. where he once was known
as the Ghost of Guam" He was
then a wrath-like island fugitive
from a feared enemy.
When the Japanese overwhelm-
ed the tiny American force on
Guam, Chief Tweed eluded cap.
ture. He was the only American
to survive there until the Stars
and Stripes were again hoisted
over the island.
With the aid of natives, he
managed to stay alive for 33
months. He slept in caves and
moved his hideout when enemy
patrols came too close. Four
years ago, Tweed rewarded one
of the natives. He sent a new
automobile to Antonio Artero, who
had fed him for more than a year
while he hid from the Japanese.
A few days prior to the Ameri-
can recapture of Guam, Chief
Tweed was snatched from the is
land in daring rescue. He was
able to give the American fleet
vital information about enemy
defenses, later was awarded the
Legion of Merit and promoted to
rank of lieutenant.
He retired to civilian life two
years ago. purchased a bowling
alley in the Southern Oregon city
of Grants Pass and lived there
with his wife and two young chill
dren. Six weeks ago, Chief Tweed
tied himself closer to the land
lubber's life-or soN he thought.
He bought a 10-acre farm.

Of approach is the same. /. Survey
the field and secure the facts. q.
Decide what action is feasible
and then take it."
Three of the proposed projects
are designed to increase women's
role in public life. They are dis
cussed in chapters entitled, "Sup-
port Women Now in Public Office"
Work for More Women in Ap-
pointive Office" and ELECT More
Women to Public Office"
In no way can women expand
their status more effectively or
win a wider voice in their govern
ment more quickly than by in-
creasing the number of qualified
women in public Office" the hand
book asserts. Pointing out that
most women need persuading to
enter political race, it adds:
"The most persuasive argument
you can offer a prospective candi-
date is active backing-and this
means not making a statement in
her behalf, but getting votes in the
ballot boxes"
AS a practical means of securing
appointive positions for women,
the handbook suggests that groups
compile rosters OF well-qualif1ed
women and then see that the
rosters are made available to ap-
pointing officials.
Suggestions for Honoring Women
A broad range of possibilities is
envisioned in project entitled,
>"Honor Woman as a Person."
These include honoring the home
maker who has taken an active
part IN community affairs, as well
as professional women who fire.
quently feel that the chances for
receiving full recognition for their
work are not too bright. AS an ex-
ample Of the latter, the booklet
points out that professional women
receive only a small proportion of
the honorary degrees which uni
versities and colleges confer on
distinguished citizens.
Recognition of women can be
achieved, it is suggested, through
such media as annual awards, spe-
cial meetings, radio programs and
newspaper stories.
In other project titles, groups
are told to Guard Against Dis

From the economic point OF

AS for women "as people," they
have only begun to realize their
potentialities. according to the
AAUW booklet. Women have
marched forward in seven-league
boots in the last hundred years. -
1t asserts, But too frequently
their lives are still narrowed by
the centuries-old habit of making
their homes. their families and
their domestic duties the sum total

organization concerned with the
status of women.
Cooperation With Men Advised
Those who expect to find a
narrow feminist point of view will
be surprised. From beginning to
end, the handbook stresses the i'm
portance of seeking cooperation
from men.
Strengthening and expanding
women's status is not a battle of
the sexes" it says at the outset.
1T can be accomplished only by
men and women working together
to find out what the limitations
are and what can be done about
them. Your best allies are your
husband, your brothers, your
father and the men leaders about
you. Every important wom-
ems gain in history has been
brought about because some wom-
en- took the time and trouble to
explain to men just what the
women were trying to do and why,
and the men joined with the wom-
