had time to telephone his uncle.

It was 10 p. m. and his uncle, who

was in bed, dressed and started tothe station to see him, “but thetrain left before he got there.” Todate, Bowen has not received anyletters from his family and is sure-ly looking forward to them. Hiswife and twin daughters left Cool-idge to make their home in Okla-homa City with her mother whenhe was called to service. He has

three brothers in the armed forces.

PFC. L. W. McINTYRE writes

from an island in the South Pacific

where he is serving witluthe U. S.

marine corps, to let us know thathe is receiving the Examiner. “Ihave not seen anybody from Cool-idge since 1 left the states. I think

M. E. Sweeper is near here, butdon’t know his address —would surelike to have it ... I went intothe mountains the other day andpicked my first banana off the tree—sure was a thrill, almost toomuch of a thrill, if you know what

I mean.” Mclntyre asks to be re-membered to his Coolidge friends.

PFC. GUSTAVO S. FONTESwrites from Camp Livingston,

Louisiana, where he has recentlybeen transferred to the infantry,to give us his change of address."Since 1 have been moving aroundso much the past month I have notreceived the Examiner and I have

missed it very much. I hope itstarts getting here soon and Iwould like to get one of the Christ-mas Editions, if possible ... Iexpect to go overseas after a shortperiod of training here.” Hisbrother, Pfc. Louis S. Fontes, is

now serving overseas.

JOHN B. BERGUM, son of Mr.and Mrs. J. B. Bergum, was oneof 12 sergeants advanced to thegrade of staff sergeant in year-endpromotions at Florence, South Car-olina, Army Air Field, it is an-nounced by Col. Arthur I.

PVT. HENRY GARCIA arrivedhere 'Saturday on a 30-day furlough

to visit his mother, Mrs. Mary Gar-

cia, after many months service in

the South Pacific. He has a broth-er, Mike, also serving in the armed

forces.

PFC. SEN Y. (SAMMY) ONG

has been transferred from San

Francisco to New York from wherehe expects to leave in the near fu-

ture as one of the crew on a hospi-

tal ship operating out of San Fran-

cisco and made many trips east onspecial hospital trains evacuating

wounded from the port to inlandhospitals. Ong sends his change ofaddress so he will continue to re-ceive the Examiner. “I sure get

a lot of comfort out of reading it."He hopes that 1945 will bring vic-tory and that they will all be home

before another Christmas, he says.

LT. ROSS McEUEN writes his

father. Arch McEuen, from a Ger-man prison camp to let him knowhe is getting along as well “as well

as could be expected.” The letter,written on a regular form suppliedby the Germans, is the first wordthe McEuens have received fromtheir son since August. They arenow getting more food, McEuensays, and he has regained some ofthe weight he lost. "The time hasbeen dragging lately—seems morelike ten years than ten months.”Ross, reported missing in October,1943, when his plane failed to re-turn from a mission, was later re-ported wounded and a prisoner ofthe Germans. A graduate of Cool-idge Union High School, he asksto be remembered to all his oldfriends.

Mrs. Vena Bowen, from NorthCamp Hood, Texas, where he ar-rived Christmas morning. “We gothere about 8 o’clock and it wasraining, and is still raining. Idropped you a letter in Coolidgeas the train passed through—itdidn’t even slow up.” When they
