staff Writer, Saginaw News

SAGINAW, Mich, Mar. 81
(AP).-The story starts with
the sadness Of war, but 1t has
stardust sprinkled on it and
the ending has the happiness
and gaiety Of youth.
On April 18, 1912, in New
London, Conn.,, there was q
pretty wedding in which Doro-
thy Nuechterlein Of Franken-
muth, Mich, became the bride
of Ensign william Cuthbertson,
jr.
The best man and matron Of
honor were 1t. and Mrs. j. M.
Mcmahon, parents Of two boys,
3-year-old Mike and James,
then q baby. Their lives were
to be intertwined in death and
in events that make this story
possible.
Shortly after the wedding, the
young ensign and lieutenant
were assigned duty on the sub
marine Grunion. It sailed from
New London, through the Pan
anna Canal and into the cold
waters Of the Aleutians and
there, on August 2, 1912, the
sub was lost with all hands.
Mrs. Cuthbertson came back
to Frankenmuth to live with
her parents. Mr.. and Mrs. Carl
Nuechterlein. Mrs. Mcmahon
and her two sons also left New
London. They never saw each
other again, but kept in con-
tact by letters.
Mrs. Cuthbertson gave birth
to o baby girl, Nancy Lee,
January ~. 1943, and on Feb
ruary / a telegram was de-
livered for baby Nancy at Sagi-
naw's st. Mary's Hospital. It
said:
Don't forget our date for
Annapolis hop in 1851. If you
like rugged men count on Jim
or curly-headed Mike" It was
signed Jim and Mike"
Both boys tried for Annap-
oils. Jim's eyesight kept him
out. Now he's studying in al
university in Germany. Mike

MOSCOW, Mar. 81 (AP)-
The Soviet-led Warsaw Pact
powers today charged the West
is continuing to wage an arms
race and announced they are
strengthening their .defenses.
The eight-nation Commu-
mist military counterpart Of
NATO singled out West Ger
many as a major hotbed of
war danger" in q declaration
that SKINNED over strife-rid-
den Laos and the Congo.
While making the usual plea
for peaceful co-existence" and
complete disarmament, the
Communist nations announced
they had agreed on measures
which they find 1t necessary to
take in the interests of further
consolidation Of their defense
potential and strengthening
peace throughout the world"
Coming after three days of
talks in the Kremlin amid the
usual complete secrecy, the
communique was surprisingly
mild in tone but appeared to
pinpoint Germany as the next
pressure point in the East West

The conference communique

This was expected, since the
Warsaw Pact covers only the

only as observers. But it was
assumed that during the dis

Khrushchev outlined the Soviet
