We arrived there about noon and upon inquiring we found out where ,. g petty worked. We found Betty in her private office. After we talked awhile with Betty she informed us that she was mar- ng --ed to her boss. So, she started with us to New Mexico to lock up Herbert who was in the Marines. We arrived in Santa Fe where Heroert was stationed the next night. Herbert was on guard duty but would be off in about 5 minutes. So, we desided to wait. When Herbert got off duty we all decided to go eat supper together. Her ert couldn't get a furlough, to our disappointment, but he informed us that Don Martin was in the levy and stationed in 1 San Diego, California. So after telling Herbert farewell and wishing him the best of.luck we were once again on our way. We stopped in Arizona, for the night in the town of Phoenix. Early the next morning as we were going to breakfast we passed a building and on the window it said, 'Dewayne Lipp, Artist.n I wondered if it could be one of my former students. The boys, anxious to find out, went in- side to inquire and low and behold it was Dewayne Llpp that I had had in the class of 53. While having a nice chat with him he informed me that he had married the former Betty Holloway who also ha: been a student at Roll School. Dewayne told us that he couldn't go with us on our journey since his job took up -W rost of his time. So, after saying our farewells we went on 'nr to breakfast.

Early the next morning we set out to see Don. When we got to the 1 Haval Center the boat Don was on was just docking at the har- bor. Don was surprised to see us, and we were all so surprised . to learn that Don is now a Captain. Since Don couldn't get a leave he was unable to go with us on our tour. After telling Don all the home news, which included the winning of the state basketball championship by Roll, we were on our way once again. Don had told us we could find Ethel in Seattle, Wash- 1 ington, so we decided to make that our next stop. After 'MW traveling for a couple of days we came into the state of Oregon. n Then dinner time came, and we found ourselves in the city of Portland. Je decided to eat and look the town over. While looking about we discovered a television shop bearing the mane of HPayne.n Our curosity finally got the best of us, so , we ihgiireu EFDUDQ to see if it could be any of the Paynes we anew.
