(hie of the changes IV make is for the servicemans' family being able to go with him to ant' duty station. excepting a war zone naturally. In other words I'd make overseas tours

accompanied. This, / think, would be good fin- the lividly and fir the moral of the serviceman. I'd get rid of the tropical and khaki trousers um. The summer green trousers are hetter looking and easier to take care of, so I'd have them issued or have a hit more of a clothing allowance so the Marine could afford them.

I'd definitely change the regulations on sideburns. The hair regulation are okay / ant against long hair anynny but I think the sideburns should lx' allowed a bit longer. Also I'd see

what / could do about speeding up Disbursing services which I think are slow. The request mast thing I'd change too, because I don't think it does the lob it's supposed to good otough. I'd bring in more educational courses, like an art course fin crumple, and I think IV bring in 111011' ,'purls.

McCURDY

There would be some different hair regulations for one. I like the idea of long hair and I think IV change the present regulations to match those of the Army. / would make some changes in the winter green uniform too, I'd completely redesign the blouse so it was less confining and looked better. The present utility unifiirm i don't think is

as practical as Nye jungle type, s,

I would get rid of the old uniform in favor of the haters. BA L DWI N

Editorial

False fire We've all seen the old war

movies where the Nazi Gestapo wakes up the sleepy store

merchant and gives him the third degree after his house is thoroughly searched.

People living aboard base

in barracks often Bud themselves in a similar situation. They have

awakened to the sound of a fire alarm and the military police pounding on their door or have

been ordered out or their room smack in the middle of a good movie just because some idiot had the itch to pull is fire alarin.

After leaving the room they are mustered outside in the parking lot where they must remain until the alarms have been shul off and everyone has

gone through a hand check line Each alarm has a blue stain which comes off on the hand when pulled.

According to Gunnery Sergeant l'aul Everest, Battalion Legal Office, there have been eight false alarms in the past four months and only two people have gotten away with it. Five of the six that were caught have been reduced to a lower rank.

No one likes to be rousted out of the barracks and the MPs

don't especially enjoy heating on every door, but nevertheless, it's their job and it isn't their fault that you have to get out of the barracks. If the blame should be

directed, at anyone it's the man who pulled the alarm and the men in the room nearest the alarm who are responsible. No one could pull an alarm (which

alarms hassle everyone makes sic much noise) without It is your duty to the being seen. Marine ('orps and 10 each man in

the barracks to turn in any violator or render any in formation which stay lead to the arrest of the guilty person.

II' someone is hurt during the evacuation of the building and the guilty person is caught, he is subject to a court martial.

Just remember the next time you find yourself in the parking lot in the middle of the night getting soaked from the rain, there are two people standing with you and know who is to blame: the one who slid it and the one who saw him but won't speak tip.

Chaplain's Column

Money can't buy peace Ity Chaplain E. F. Gillis CAMP SMITH The price

of gold-the stockmarket-infla- tion- the devaluation of the dollar. Every newscaster tells us exactly how much our money is

worth, The daily paper always devotes pages to a detailed analysis of the market. Everyone with a savings or checking account is alert to his bank balance lest he or the bank make a mistake. Money plays an important and necessary role in our lives. As important and necessary as money is there are

many things it cannot buy. Money cannot buy true

friends-we have to deserve them. Happiness? Where can you buy a nickles worth? A clear

conscience? That knows no price tag. Happiness'? The beauties of nature'? These are as free as the air we breathe.

Money never bought inward peace-such peace results from having ideals and living a

constructive wayof life. Money cannot buy character, character being what we are when alone in the dark. A good reputation is something we earn by the sweat of our brow. The list of worthwhile things inoney cannot buy goes on like a list of excuses.

The best things in life are free goes the adage-they have no price. These include gifts of nature and grace. Dare we pass them up?

Photo contest ends; Winners announced

K-BAY - Someone considered important in the field once said that a good photographer sees the world with an intensity that sometimes hurts. Gunnery Sergeant Donnie Shearer's intensity and clarity of vision may or may not cause him mental pain. But they have won him first place honors in the recently completed Station Photo Contest.

Shearer's Best In Show winner is an 8x10 Ektachrome entitled "Visions of Grandeur." It appears on this page but understandably loses some grandeur in the transition from color to black and white.

Shearer went on to nearly monopolize the honors by placing first in the Experimental

Color, Picture Study and Close -up categories.

First in Scenic Color went to Sgt. Eric Say lors, for his entry "Sunburst."

Awards notwithstanding, all are very good photographs showing acuteness of vision and a clean professionalism. The entries were judged by Terry Luke, staff photographer for the Honolulu Star-Bulletin and Norman Shapiro, of the University of Hawaii photo department.

The winning photos will be forwarded to Washington to be entered in the All-Marine Contest at Headquarters, Marine Corps, The prize-winning pieces from that contest will be moved to Memphis to represent the Marine Corps in the All-Service competition in December.

That man is Sergeant Don G. Deitsch, an aviation radio repairman with Ground Electronics Maintenance.

WASHINGTON - Headquarters, in accordance with Cost of Living Council regulations, has "defrosted" the freeze price on all food products with the exception of beef.

According to Navy out.

Deitsch runs the work center at Kansas Tower. Besides supervising the maintenance and repair on a host of radios and navigational aids, he spends hours atop the tower that homes the TACAN antenna.

The California native is a

five year veteran of the Corps who has spent a year here. He likes the duty here: "As a duty station, I think it's outstanding. I've had a very interesting and rewarding tour."

DEITSCH

Deitsch has enjoyed variety since leaving radio schools in San Diego. As an aviation specialist, he went to El Toro, DaNang and Camp Pendleton before coming to K-Bay. While in Vietnam, he re-enlisted for four years.

1-lis career is a reflection of the increasing complexity of the Corps, Schooling in the fundamentals of his trade took a year. Even with this behind him, it was experience that made hint the professionally confident

craftsman he is today. "It took me about two years of working with the equipment to be comfortable," Deitsch asserts.

This comfortable feeling means he is qualified to work on a legion of electronics communications gear. To the initiated, a rendition would, perhaps, sound like a Who's Who of this child Marconi fathered and has grown to Dr. Strangelovian proportions.

Working with such equipment can be frustrating or satisfying, reflects Deitsch. Repairs "could take anywhere from five minutes to five days." However, he adds, "The average piece of gear the technician has to work with in the Marine Corps is pretty good."

His seeming spectacular work in the eagle eyrie above Kansas Tower makes Deitsch a different man from the popular concept of the deskbound, slide rule slave technician. Ile is quick to decry any claim to fame for his high wire act. "It doesn't bother me at all," he explains, "the only way you can fall is if you're careless." The wind can be a problem, Deitsch admits. "It'll ripple your clothes and make you feel like you're going to fall."

When he goes aloft, the girder grappling technician can stay for an hour or five. Besides antenna repairs, Deitsch gambols in the clouds to construct the light shows K-Bay residents enjoy at Easter, the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. But, "it's just part of my job at what we call The Voice of Kaneohe."

Being a vital part of the Voice of Kaneohe is what makes Sergeant Doti Deitsch tick.

What makes you tick?

Skylab space station project

Lousma becomes second Marine in space

1

WASHINGTON - Eleven years after Marine Lieutenant Colonel John Glenn's three orbits of earth, another Marine blasted off for about 850 orbits.

He's Major Jack R. Lousma, pilot of the three-man crew launched from NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Ha., Saturday to visit the Earth-orbiting Skylab space station.

The crew, of Navy Captain Alan L. Bean, commander; Owen K. Garriott, science pilot; and Lousman, were rocketed into space at 7:08 eastern daylight time. They docked with Skylab some eight and one-half hours later, beginning a 59-day mission.

Skylab Ill astronauts conducted Earth resources experiments, studied the physical effects of prolonged weightlessness on man, and observed solar phenomena. A number of experiments were conducted in astrophysics, engineering and technology, materials processing in space and other areas of scientific interest.

Three times during the second mission, the Skylab Ill astronauts put on space suits to perform tasks outside the space station.

Tuesday, two of the astronauts exited through the Airlock Module hatch to install solar telescope film and to erect a twin-boom sun shade over the temporary parasol now shielding part of Skylab.

At a news conference Monday, Lousma, when asked how much training the astronauts received on the deployment of the new sun shield said, "We deployed the twin boom sun shield several times in the water tank over at Marshall Space Flight Center. We

didn't have a failure and encountered no problems.

"We will be carrying a

parasol similar to the one that's up there now; and we are thoroughly familiar with these procedures," Lousma continued. "We feel we can do either job equally well and that we can be successful by either means."

However, Lousma said that

the crew was to continue to do some training in Houston before the flight. "We will polish up the procedures a little bit, primarily in the area of stowage and that sort of thing," he said.

On Aug. 24 and Sept.19 the astronauts will again go outside the space station to retrieve and install solar

telescope film. Mid-afternoon of Sept. 25,

the crew will undock from the Skylab and perform certain maneuvers in preparation for return to earth. At 6:26 p.m. eastern daylight time, they will splash down in the Pacific Ocean about 340 statute miles southwest of San Diego.

I've Got This To Say

About That Thone'y threat bombs out

Dear Editor: The mess housed in Barracks 220 were the butt of a practical joke Monday

night.* someone phoned its a bomb threat. As is usually the case, the caller turned out to be a crank, but the ensuing

hassle nes real enough. Since the caller is probably blind to all the obvious reasons (safety and

welfare of others, destruction of property in search of a non -existant bomb, taking men and material acne from their normal duties, etc.) that dissuade a normal individual from sinking a bomb threat, I'll point out one that may not have occurred to him:

If by making the 'phone 'y threat the caller thought he was somehow "getting hack" at the Marine Corps for sortie grievance. real or imagined. he's sadly mistaken. The people who really pay the expense of his warped sense of humor are those living in the barracks who are rousted out while the building is searched.

Illten and if the caller is caught. it will be the very organization he thinks /re's getting over on that will protect him.' justice might be better served if they turned hint over to the guys in the ?wracks.

show featuring a young group from Honolulu called Blitzen. They produced a very good

sound, although a little loud for these old cars. The Marines chowing down seemed to enjoy the show.

This group recently finished a gig at the Red Noodle in Waikiki, and is now working on a tour to Japan. This was the second time they had been here. Last year, they provided music for the Water Carnival.

One snuffy, clearly pleased at the day's happenings, commented, "Far out! It's about time somebody in the Corps thought of this."

Credit for the show goes to First Lieutenant Mike Kincaid of Special Services, who explained the purpose of the chowtime concert: "We kept putting on shows at the Family Theater and attendance was lousy. So, we decided the next show would be at one of the messhalls."

And check this, more shows are planned.

Yeah, buddy. The peas in the pot were jumpin'; the cooks and 500 Marines had a ball Sunday. If you weren't there, you just should have been.

Marines of End Sweep K-BAY - The first element of Marine Heavy Helicopter

Squadron 463 (HMH-463), of the 1st Marine Brigade, to return from an extended deployment in the Western Pacific arrived here Wednesday morning.

The squadron was part of the Navy/Marine task force which recently completed mine countermeasures operations in North Vietnam's major harbors and coastal waterways.

The element includes HMH-463's commanding officer, Major William J. Smith, 126 officers and men, and a number of the squadron's C11-53 Sea Stallion helicopters. They arrived on the USS Ogden, a l'acific Fleet ship which participated in Operation End Sweep.

The remainder of the squadron, an element of 43 officers and men equipped with the remainder of the unit's helicopters, will arrive in August aboard the USS Dubuque, another ship involved in the operation. The date of their arrival will be announced later.

Helicopter squadron returns After Haiphong mine sweep

By GySgt. Dale Dye

K-BAY - For most of the Vietnam veterans deployed to Operation End Sweep with HMH-463, duty in and over Haiphong Harbor was an ironic experience.

For at least one veteran of two tours with Marine helicopter squadrons in the southern combat zone, the experience of flying over gunboats mounting the blue, red and yellow North Vietnamese ensign was

"bizarre". "We felt strange at best,"

one Marine commented, "with them looking up at us, guns

bristling from the craft, and us

unarmed." Overall, however, the

returning '463 Marines had more to say about liberty, boredom and long, long working hours, than they did about the North Vietnamese.

"Everyone did what they were supposed to do and kept the birds going," related one corporal from 11M11-463 Hydraulics section. "Minesweeping was a new mission for us," said a sergeant in the Avionics section, "but we had some knowledgeable people on the birds and we were able to learn the techniques in a very short time."

Liberty in several overseas ports provided a welcome break from the minesweeping mission

for the Marines, but as one lance corporal put it, "We were nearly always ready to get back to Haiphong and get back at it."

"Morale was high and spirits were good the whole time," a helicopter crewman commented. His opinion was echoed by many of the returning Marines as they waited for customs inspection on the Kaneohe flight lines.

Everyone interviewed by the Hawaii Marine said they were "glad" to "zonked" to be

back in Hawaii. Many said they thought the air station had changed considerably in the eight months they were deployed.

opening of K-Bay's women's slow-pitch softball league.

The season begins Sunday and will continue through Oct. 7. There will be three games played each Sunday at Pollock Field at 4, 6 and 8 p.m.

The league consists of six teams and will be sponsored by civilian firms. The Raiders will he sponsored by Mike McCormack. Realtors, Pizza Eaters by Pizza Fetes and Ka Mua by Windward Medical Center. The remaining teams, which do not have names yet, will be sponsored by Windward Volkswagen,, Universal Motors and Datsun of Hawaii in Kailua.

"This is the second year of the league but a few changes have been made," says Frank Molina, president of the league. "The big change this year is the pitching. Instead of fast-pitch we have changed to slow-pitch which will give each team an equal chance at the championship. This way if a

team has an exceptionally good pticher they won't run away with the league and the pressure will be put on the ability of each batter. Also, there will be no bunting, stealing or chopping down on the ball."

Next year's efforts will be centered on combining this league with Tripler and the Coast Guard.

Page 10, Hawaii Marine, Aug. 3, 1973 . K-Bay claims

By Rudi Tomedi Photos by Sgt. E.S. Saylors

K-BAY - The following conversation was overheard recently in the men's can at the big white golf course clubhouse:

"Shaky day?" "Yea, a real shaft-bender.

Hooked, sliced, couldn't control anything."

"Hear you skied one clear into the Pacific."

"Two." "Maybe it's your ball." "Yeah, I think I'll change

brands." "Could be the course.

Pretty course, but tough." "Make that pretty tough.

Keeps getting tougher. That back nine looks like a poor man's Pebble Beach."

The poor man's Pebble Beach is the back nine at K-Bay's own ocean-fringed wind-balmed 18-hole golf course. And it has been tagged with that complimentary epithet by such as these: Ike Eisenhower, Tennessee Ernie Ford, even Willie Mays. They all have played the course; they all have found it a stiff challenge of their golfing skills.

The 120-acre course spreads itself out in the northern corner of the air station. North Beach and the Pacific buttress the I 3th, 14th and 15th fairways, Pyramid Rock rises nakedly from the blue ocean and the misty Koolau Range is in your eyes as you shoot for the 14th green. The scenery here makes concentration on your game a

difficult necessity. Yet the entire course has

its own grassy beauty: carefully planned, exquisitely trapped, varying in terrain from the level 400-yard plain of the first fairway to the lumpy, narrow all-downhill 13th ("so's you don't get a roll") to the tree-hung 15th tee, where you had better know how to hit a

`the poor man's Pebble Beach' Ton low ball; the challenges are

there. Unfortunately, so are the

problems. That's Ralph Allen's department. 1-le's the club pro.

"The location of this course is causing us headaches. We have to fight 'em every day, but it looks like the only way we can solve some of our problems is through the co-operation of the people here on the station," says Allen. He explained that the course is being used by surfers, swimmers and joggers as a short cut to other destinations. And then there are the kids: "We'd like to encourage the parents in the housing area to keep their children off the course," adds Allen.

Problems aside, most of Allen's think time is spent on future plans. Constant improvement of the fairways and greens is a must.

The greens on all the holes are already exceptional. "Some of the finest greens on the Island," according to Assistant Pro Bob Simoneau. "They're about the most important part of a course...needing the most careful maintenance. Here, they get it."

Low handicaps may rise a

bit with the completion of several planned projects. Enlargement of some strategic sand traps, the construction of a

big lake that will wrap a watery finger around the back of the first green, and the relocation and enlargement of several teeing areas will harden the course's challenge. The feature future attraction will be a long dog-leg on 16. Added attractions planned are improved parking facilities and a sauna bath and new carpeting for the men's locker room.

The course is open to all active duty and retired Marines, their dependents and guests. Regular features are a driving

Palmer takes charge of Red Cross K-BAY - "I felt that the

military needed someone who had had military service to relate the military needs to the Red Cross and interpret Red Cross programs to the military."

This goal spurred Carl J. Palmer to don one uniform after shedding another. The new Red Cross Field Director for the Air Station retired from the Army in 1962 after 24 years. He immediately joined the ranks of the American Red Cross.

Palmer, who took over on

July 3, came to Hawaii from Ft. Hood, Tex. Although this is his first visit to the Islands, his

career with the disaster relief organization has taken him to many places. Germany, Vietnam, Grissom Air Force Base, Ind., and Tinker Air Force Base, Okla., have been but a few stops on his itinerary.

The ex-doggie believes in

the Red Cross. "From personal contact with service people, from surveys, reports, etc., it appears to be a fact that the organization is of value to the military as a whole and the individual in particular."

He has a personal concept

of the organization's mission at K-Ilay. "We're responsible to all the people on the base. And, we

support the units here." Red Cross, which recently

moved into the Family Services Center, has a wide variety of activities. They meet emergency needs, financial and communications. Tlie organization counsels Marines with private or family problems. Perhaps, their most visible role is supporting various activities.

They provide volunteers to help such places as the Dispensary, to mention only one. Red Cross recruits and trains all of their volunteers and, adds Palmer. "We desperately need more people."

Palmer is happy to he here and is looking forward to Iris tour. Red Cross is command supported at K-Bay,he feels. "The welcome I've been afforded by the command is

most cordial. The past relationship here appears to have been outstanding."

He hopes to better the services his organization offers the base. "My idea is to continue t he same relationship and improve any of our services that need improvement."

New Mexicans balloting

For constitution changes WASHINGTON - Seven

The amendments were proposed by the state legislature during its 1973 session and are entitled as follows:

Constitutional Amendment (CA)-1. Qualifications for holding public office and voting.

CA-2. Property tax veteran exemption.

CA-3. Recall election of local school board members.

C A - 4 . Voter qualifications.

CA-6. Property tax exemption. Property in interstate commerce.

CA-7. County officers. Terms and maximum age.

For adoption, each proposed amendment with the exception of CA-4 - must be ratified by a majority of the state's electors voting on the question. CA-4, however, must be ratified by at least three-fourths of the state's electors voting on the question.
