Co-Ed Braves Bay Perils To Rescue Victim of Shark

SAN FRANCISCO, Rl-A brave coed 'swam out into the Pacific Ocean Thursday and tugged ashore a youth who had been fatally wounded by a shark.
 Albert Kegler, who died 212 hours after the attack, had first warned Shirley O'Neill back to the beach by yelling: 'It's shark Go back! Go back"
 But when he cried for help the attractive brunette swam out 50 yards and pulled Kegler back to Baker Beach, just west of Golden Gate Bridge.
 Both were students at San Fran cisco State College and both just IS.
 Kagler was still conscious but incoherent when sped to Letter man Army Hospital, where he died of shock and loss of blood despite emergency surgery. Doc tors said his left arm was nearly ripped from the shoulder, and he had deep gashes on his neck, right arm and back.
 The pair had gone for late afternon dip on an unusually warm day and were treading the water when the youth screamed his first warning.
 Miss O'Neill said she recalled seeing heavy, dark body break the surface near Kegler after she had returned to shore. Tying the end of a nearby fisherman's line around her waist, she plunged back into the surf.
 q saw Albert struggle and he couldn't mako any progress" sne said. He's a good swimmer, so I knew he must have been hurt badly. I couldn't leave him."
 There was blood all around us" Miss O'Neill continued.
 T was scared. I didn't know what to do, but I knew I couldn't leave him.

What i witnessed in the mass
meeting held last Sunday. Oct.
25. at the Filipino Fraternity Hall
called by the Filipino Community
of Seattle, Inc, compelled me to
make the following observations.
To be frank, 1 say it was not
a mass meeting at all, but mess
meeting.
1t was a mess meeting because
everyone who attended it knew
that there was nothing accom-
plished and the opinions" and
Understandings our community
President and his clubhouse Di-
rectors wanted to unity are more
messy now than before. Why?
Because:
l. The President failed as a
''host" to make clear in the minds
of his guests" the purpose of the
meeting and why they were invited
as guests.
2. The President and his club
house Directors failed to show
willingness to entertain their
guests by giving explanations on
matters pertaining to the club
house, and by clarifying the rea-
sons why they should give finan-
cial support to the clubhouse prof.
ect.
3. The President and his club
house Directors failed to show will
lingness to tell what had been
done in the past and what is yet
to be done on this so-called club
house project.
4. The President and his club
house Directors failed to show
willingness to hear their guests
complaints, disappointments and
disagreements, which, their guests
believe, are blocking the way in
materializing the big dream for a
community clubhouse.
s. Some of the officers spent
most of their time in that meeting
expressing antagonizing state
ments about their guests and the
presiding officer allowed too many
speeches that made the community
members disguised and impatient
so that they finally walked out of
the meeting.
6. The community Bull t i n,

A MESS MEETING

which was distributed announcing
the mass meeting" is full of con-
ceit and shows no trust, conf
dence. faith and respect for the
intelligence, integrity and dignity
of their guests.
These six-point observations, 1
believe, indicate the reason why
the mass meeting failed to accom-
plish its objective and became, in
stead, a mess" meeting.
What Should Have Been Done
The Officers should know by
now that our people have been
waiting so long to see action in
the building of the much-talked-
of community clubhouse, and they
are already very impatient in hear
ing so many speeches about it and
at the same time their minds are
now confused and full of suspicion
because of many uncleared ac-
tons taken by previous admins
trations. The President should
have been prepared to present in
that mass meeting brief history
of what had been done so far and
what must be done pertaining to
this clubhouse project.
If this had been done, it would
have cleared the suspicious and
confused minds of the people. The
President should have shown will
ingness to listen to the commun-
ity members complaints, disap-
pointments and diSagreements,
which have held them back from
giving their financial support to
this community clubhouse.
Furthermore, it is about time the
people should be given the chance
to speak out what they have long
been keeping in their minds, and
it is about time the leaders and
officers be the listeners. The re-
suit, which is best for all pur-
poses, would be an adequate in
formation for all on both sides
of the matter; thus, every one
would know where to place him
self and be ready to give his sup
port and cooperation.
At the present time, it is very
sad to state that all of us are in
the dark, and the clubhouse prof.
ect is still a pie in the sky"

LET US GIVE Eta TRY
BY Mrs. Luviminda r. de Cano
Chairman, Clubhouse Directors
Filipino Community of Seattle. Inc.

A little over thirty years ago,
the Filipino community of Seat
tie visualized a clubhouse where
the members can get together
and have their social activities.
To make this dream a reality, a
drive for funds was started.
Within the span of years up to
the present, the size of the Fill
pino community has increased
with a membership now of over
two thousand Filipino-American
residents in Seattle, including
their children.
To accommodate both senior
and junior citizens of the COM
munity in their basic needs in
the proposed clubhouse, the Club
house Directors of the Filipino
Community of Seattle, Inc.-to
mention but few of their work
pertaining to the project-must
consider a clubhouse of frame,
masonry, cement, or a combina-
ton of two or all three with a
capacity of three hundred, hav-
ing facilities for wholesome rec
reation, social entertainment and
education: an auditorium for
multiple use, like banquets. bene-

fits or any kind of dances. lee
lures, exhibits, indoor for chill
dren and adults, meeting rooms.
an office, kitchen, check room.
comfort rooms, fire place, park
ing space, etc, (may be a Ii
orary, tennis court and swim
ming pool in the future).
Also, the clubhouse directors
have to consult the Laws of the
State of Washington Relating to
the General Organization and
Management of Non-Profit Cor
porations and Associations, Title
"a" in order to comply with its
provisions.
1t is the hope and wish of
each and every one of us that we
may be able to start construc-
ton of the clubhouse by the end
of 1850 and its Inauguration by
the next administration.
With the approval of the Com
munity Council of the Filipino
Community of Seattle, Inc, and
the support of the Filipino
American residents of Seattle.
the projected clubhouse could be
reality.
Say, let us give it a try!

The contents of the Filipino

tin for October, 1859, announcing
the mass meeting held October 20
at the Filipino Fraternity Hall, are
insulting, full of conceit, absolut-
ism, dictatorship and militarism,
and any person with a sound mind
who loves his freedom OF speech,
liberty and democracy, would re-
sent such kind of statements.
My humble opinion is that it
was the most stupid thing ever
published in any Filipino commun-

ever circulated that I have come
across since I arrived in this coun-
try in 1927.
For the benefit of those con-

in this area would not tolerate
and would not accept regimenta-

left no doubt he would do
everything possible to have the
Senate defeat any such meas
ure if the Ways and Means
Committee approve it.
Bond issue financing for such
a highway system is unrealis-
tic" he declared" because mile
age and construction costs con-
stantly increase and invariably
the time is hard to find when
it is convenient to use avail
able funds for redeeming the
bonds. The result is mat the
debt plus interest continues
indefinitely.
Now the House Ways and
Means Committee is proposing
bond issue financing again
temporarily to supply addi-
tional funds for the interstate
road system. Besides the basil
cally unsound nature of such
financing, a bond Issue for this
purpose would be a back door
financing of the worst kind. 1t
would authorize expenditure of
Federal funds outside appro-
.priation process control, and it
would pile up an additional bill
lion dollars of fully guaranteed
Federal debt outside of the
statutory debt limit.
In view of the constantly
increasing costs of the inter-
state system, it is toolhardy to
believe the debt would be re-
paid at any time in the reason
ably near future. Approval OF
such a bond issue at this time
would be an invitation to issue
more bonds as time went on. "

PuuIey Rejects
Democrats Bid
In Ticket Dispute

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 7 (AP).
Edwin j. Pauley has turned
down a compromise in the con-
troversy over tickets TO the 1860
Democratic National Conven-
ton.
He's sticking to his demand
for 5000 tickets a day. Mayor
Norris Poulson of Los Angeles
proposed he take 3,133. Demo-
cratic National Chairman Paul
Butler says $500 is all Mr..
Pauley can have.
Mr.. Pauley, an Gilman, is f.
nance chairman of the Los An
geles host committee for the
convention. He says the Demo-
cratic National Committee
agreed to give him 5000 tickets
to help pay off the S350,000
guarantee to bring the conven-
ton to Los Angeles.
Mayor Poulson said 1881
first-class seats will be avail
able in the Memorial Sports
Arena for the convention. He
proposed that 12,948 seats be
assigned for convention needs,
3,l33 go to the host committee
and 1850 to California Demo-
cratic organizations.
But Mr.. Pauley said the seat
ing capacity could be increased
to 10000 although some seats
might not be too desirable.
Some of the needed extra seats,
he said, could be obtained by
cutting down the floor space al
loted to newspapers, radio and
television.
