BUSY GENIUS WHO WAS
ALL THINGS TO ALL MEN

A new, well-liked schoolmaster
on the remote island of North
Haven, Maine, has been identified
as a brilliant poseur and faker,
who as CDR. Joseph C. Cyr," sue
cessfully served as surgeon
aboard the Canadian destroyer
Cayuga during Korean hostilities.
He also had distinguished,
though brief, careers as theolo-
gian and doctor of philosophy.
State police Detectives James
Milligan and Willard Nickerson
said that on the island the man
arrested went by the name of
Martin Danniel Godgart, and was
superintendent of the Baptist Sun
day school and a Boy Scout leader.
But the police said he admitted
he is Ferdinand Waldo Demara
Jr., of Lawrence, Mass. He was
charged with cheating by false
pretenses in obtaining his Maine
teachers certificate.
Islanders Not Told
None of the islanders were told
about the arrest. Demara went in
to the school for his hat and coat
and the party returned to the
mainland on a Coast Guard boat.
The troopers said Demara. about
IS, nearly 6 feet and weighing
close to $50 pounds, will be taken
to Augusta, state capital of Maine.
In the late 1940s Demara was on
the faculty of Notre Dame Insti-
tute at Alfred as Cecil Boyce Ham
mann, doctor of philosophy in ZOO
logy.
His most spectacular misrepre-
sentation was as the Canadian
navy surgeon, winning praise for
skill in difficult surgical proce-
dures.
Demara has told of leaving high
school at 16 and joining a Catho-
lie religious order, later enlisting
in the Army, going AWOL, joining
the Navy and getting his "first
taste of medicine" in a Navy hos
pital school. The FIJI found him
while he was a, teacher and deputy
sheriff at Lacey, Wash, and he
was sentenced to naval prison for
desertion.
While studying theology at
Grand Falls, N. B., he met the real
DR.. Cyr, whom he impersonated
in the Canadian navy. The ruse
was discovered when DIR. Cyr saw
news release about Demara's ex-
ploits as a naval surgeon saving
Korean lives. The Navy discharged
him.

LAUNCHING OF MISSION 81
HlGHLIGHTS NATIONAL PARKS YEAR

National Park Service.
Rejecting the requirements of
the program, the 1857 fiscal year
appropriation for the Service pro-
vided for an increase of more than
$40, 100000 over the $48,866, 300
appropriated for the previous year.
"The major increase is for
buildings and utilities, to make a
beginning on the construction of a
wide variety of needed structures
and to provide utility services ade-
quate for a vast volume of public
use both of government and con-
cessioner facilities" the Secretary
stated.
Stressing the conservation char
acter of the MISSION &c program,
Secretary Seaton declared that a
fundamental of the National Park
Services planning is $50 to develop
and staff as to relieve the dam
aging impact on the superlative
features of the National Park
System" He referred to the extern
sive construction program as sim
ply zone of the means by which
enjoyment without-impairment can
be provided"

tary Seaton, National Parks Direc-

THE MINISTER WHO WAS
DIR. JEKYLL AND MIR. HYDE

Calvin Laskey had revived the
Christian Church in Elmdale, Kan
sas, and more than trebled its men,
bership in the nine months he was
pastor, but this month he got in
Jail.
The FBI said his record showed
he'd been convicted &c times on
felony charges. Sheriff Francis
Towle said Laskey himself ac-
knowledged he had been in prison
most of the past 20 years.
Elmdale is flabbergasted.
"He was the best preacher we
ever had," said Miss Carrie Wood,
90, and a lifelong resident of this
little town population 1907 in the
Flint Hills of southeast Kansas

George Dawson, Elmdale banker
and member of the church board.
"He didn't take a cent from us.
That's the surprising thing about
it."
