Americans who we're in Eng
land and Holland during the tidal
wave and flood early this year
had plenty of reasons to be proud
they're Americans. In letter to
her mother, Mrs. Iva st. Clair, of
this city, Betty Brown Harris,
Sculthorpe Air Base, Norfolk,
England, writes as follows: "The
flood was terrible thing. At first
there was head check TO see who
was missing. Those of us who
were okay emptied our shelves of
canned goods and our closets of
clothes and took them to big
building where the survivors were
housed. 1t is CHASTITY TO see faces
Of people who have gone through
something like that Just blank
stares. The second day clothes
came from another base and we
sorted. / have never seen SO many
clothes. Every one had a job to do,
and mine was with clothes. Trucks
brought survivors to us and we
outfitted them with things to
wear. Some of them were still wet
and had been in the water for two
days. Airplanes came from The
States with clothes. We would
finish batch, 60 home, only to
get a call that another plane had
arrived. We gave tons TO the Eng
lish, then started to sort clothes
for Holland. We women were so
filled with pride when the planes
came from home. The clothes
were of all descriptions for all
ages thrown together In hurry,
but they we're good, warm sub.
stantial clothes. Lots of things
were brand new and we saw to it
that every English community got
its share of the best ones We did
the same for Holland. We felt by
sending them good things, we
could show them just now gener-
Gus Americans can be-"

Among that huge crowd in
Cleveland Stadium Sunday after
noon when the Indians took it on
both shins were the employees of
Oak Harbor's Formetal, Inc,
guests of president Glenn Haas.
MIR. Haas went all out to show
his co-workers a good time. The
trip was made via New York Cen
tral train and Mr.. Haas purchased
dinners for his gang, going and
