wire.
On the other side of the
barbed wire we were being
filmed by East German news
photographers. There was an
air of unreality; it seemed a
simple thing for anyone on
either side of the barbed wire
to jump across into the other
zone.
But then you saw the ma

guards and the lenses of field
glasses glistening from the top
of the Brandenburg Gate. 1t
was now late afternoon.

Along the Friedrich Strasse
more West Berliners going

look across the blockade. 1t
had been an afternoon of no
violence.
The West Berlin guard,
wrapping his grey cape around
him to shut cut the wind, told
Pete about the man who came
to inquire about his wife's sister,
who had walked across the
border the day before and had
not returned, and about others
who had been arrested.
Pete talked further to the
policeman and reported: HE
says the people who come here
are troubled about something,
about friends or relatives in
East Berlin and whether they
should take the chance and
walk in there"
The wind whipped around an
old man who stood and stared.
He said he was a refugee him

that he could no longer risk a
visit to his brother and sister.

BRUNSWICK, any,
Aug. 19 (AP).-A battle group
of 1900 American infantrymen
reached this north central Ger
man city tonight on their way
to reinforce the United States
garrison in isolated West
Berlin.
The men, of the 18th Infan-
try, 9th United States Division,
camped at the nearby airport
for the night before moving on
to the nearby Iron Curtain
border checkpoint of Helmstedt
and then to Berlin in a 1l0-
mile autobahn (Super highway

tory.
Travelling in about 200 We
hicles, the group covered 270
miles today. Army officials
said the first phase of the
move was completed without
any hitch.
The officials added that no
difficulties were anticipated Ell
ther for the rest of the journey
to the divided city. The troops
expected to cross into Commu-
mist East Germany at Helm
stedt some time in the morn
ing. It was estimated that the
convoy would take between five
and six hours to reach Berlin.
Helmstedt sources said the
United States Army apparently
gave Soviet authorities in East
Germany advance notice of the
transfer. No tanks or artillery
were seen in the convoy, the
largest single movement OF
American forces to Berlin in
three years.

They are now coming to play

Meanwhile, in East Germany
there has been a terrible and

But in the long run this unwiSe

as easy as going from the Dis

surprise of our West Berlin

Only that morning reporters

cross the borderline on foot.
But the borderguard waved us
through and without stopping
to ponder why. Pete, the driver,
zig-zagged around concrete
blocks set up like a Slalom on
Friedrich Strasse to prevent
fast driving.
Although 250,Oo0 West Ber-
