The way back was far too
long.
She was back at the right
track, eagerly scanning every
window of every coach. Dozens
Of eager eyes peered through the
train windows at her, hoping
that it could be their wife and
child.
Mrs. Willis was the only one
there.
Officers, well aware of the oc-
casion, brought Sergt. Willis
down the steps first.
There he is" Mrs. Willis ex-
ulted in a screamed whisper.
The greeting took a good five
minutes.
AS Sergt. Willis made his re-
luctant way back to join the
ranks, an officer shouted for him
to return.
"Send Sergt. Willis back up
here" an officer shouted. Hes
the one with the lipStick."
Before he returned, Col. Nor
man E. Sprowl had draped his
eagle-decorated coat over Mrs.
Willis shoulders. With Susan in
his arms and Mrs. Willis in the
colonel's coat, the sergeant led
the honored SO out of Union Sta
tion.
The Willises live at 1241 West
Grenstead street, Falls Church.

ZAGREB, Yugoslavia, Jan. IL.
-Yugoslavia's Communist gov

Only five hours after militia
men had stopped this CORES
pondent two miles from the
village of Krasic where Cardinal
Stepinac lives, the director Of
information in Zagreb granted
permission for me to visit the
cardinal.
A spokesman for the director
termed the action by the militia
"a blunder."
The militia had halted me in
an automobile hired from the
official government travel agency

regulation official permission
