n l i F I z K E i I r l SEPTEMBER Friday morning, 18 September, we steamed from Buckner Bay enroute for a vveek's stay in Taiwan CFormosal. We arrived in Keelung, Taiwan, at 0800 Saturday morning. Keelung is the sea port serving the city of Taipei, the largest city and capital of Taiwan. For many of the crew it was their first visit to Nationalist China, and they were quite anxious to go ashore and see the many interesting sights. The streets of the cities are quite a spectacle, teeming with pedes- trians, bicycles, oxcarts, and pedicabs. Dur- ing our three day stay in Keelung, we delivered over four tons of,Navy Handclasp Goods to local orphanages and churches. Tuesday morning, 22 September, we sailed from Keelung to Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Kaohsiung is located in the southwestern corner of Taiwan and is the nation's only other major sea port. Enroute to Kaohsiung, we were signalled by the Chinese Navy Tug, number 345, that she was having main engine trouble. She asked that we escort her to the Chinese Naval Base in the Pescadores Islands. Our ship was relieved by a Chinese Naval Vessel the following morning and Uwe arrived in Kaohsiung five hours behind schedule. The Chinese received us very well and arranged for two musical variety shows dur- ing our three day stay. On Wednesday night the Chinese Navy Entertainment Troupe per- formed. The Chinese Marine Corp Troupe put on their shows the following Friday. Both shows consisted of singers and dancers. There were many pretty Chinese girls in the groups. The highlight of the shows was probably the Limbo Dance Number by the Chinese Navy Troupe. In this dance, both a boy and girl wiggle under a bar limbo style on the lowest rung, which was about fifteen inches from the deck. Early Friday morning many of us went on a tour to the village of Shan Di Meng, an aborigine village, located in the mountains near Kaohsiung. Here we had a chance to hike over some beautiful Chinese countryside and alsoobservethe ,way of life ofa very primitive people. The Ship's basketball team played the Kaohsiung Oil Refinery, the basket- ball champions of Kaohsiung, Friday night. Unfortunately we were defeated 50-43, but it was a good game.
