The international service was to have had itsinaugural flight this week, but it’s been resched-uled, though a final date has not yet been set,

Surfway has also stocked 2,000pounds of “Farmer John” wholehams, 1,500 pounds of honey-glazed hams and 500 pounds ofduck and geese.

Badges? Unlike the “Treasure of Si-erra Madre,” you need your badges atTape Escape.

Starting Dec. 15, the video/DVDrental store will require customers tohave a bar-coded sticker on their badgesfor rental. TDY visitors will have atemporary pass with a bar code.

The bar code stickers began as a pilotproject last year, but this fall officialsdecided to make scanning a 100 per-cent requirement.

“This is for higher security andgreater accuracy,” said Paul Fritz, Re-tail Operations manager.

Stickers are issued simply by askingthe clerk for your sticker and present-ing your ID. The clerk will check to seeif you are on the family account, and ifso, issue you a pre-printed bar code

sticker. Anyone over the age of 10 noton a family account may be added bysimply filling out the appropriate format Tape Escape.

On a related note, Fritz wanted toremind customers that reservationmovies are due by 5 p.m. the followingday, and non-reservation movies aredue by 8 p.m. Those turning in movieslate will be charged a late fee equal tothe rental cost for non-reservationmovies, $10 for reservation movies notin by 5 p.m. the following day and $20if not back by 8 p.m. that same day.

The bar code move is just one im-provement as Tape Escape enters theholidays.

Fritz will give out a pair of “doorprizes” during the “Rich in the Morn-ing” radio show, Nov. 30. One doorprize is an “E.T.” collector’s edition boxset, while the other is a “Spiderman”

collector’s edition box set. To enter thedrawing, drop your name in the boxlocated at Tape Escape. The drawingwill be around 8:05 a.m. on 101.1 FM,1220 AM.

A number of new movies are headedto store shelves, too, including thenewly released summer blockbusters“Star Wars, Episode II,” “Men in BlackII” and “Austin Powers – Goldmember.”In December, Tom Cruise and StevenSpielberg’s “Minority Report” comesout as does Vin Diesel’s “XXX” andEddie Murphy’s “Adventures of PlutoNash.” For the kids, Disney’s “Lilo andStitch” will be out in December, alongwith “Country Bears,” “Stuart Little II”and “Hey Arnold, the Movie.”

One thing that hasn’t changed isprices. Children’s videos are still $1.50.New releases are $2.50 and all othermovies are $2.

Substance abuse amonghigh school studentsranked as one of the topconcerns among parentslast spring in a districtwidesurvey.

As one step in addressingthe issue, the SchoolAdvisory Council askedhealth teacher AnnElisePeterson to profile theschool’s drug and alcoholcurriculum at Wednesdaynight’s meeting.

“We want to make surestudents at all levels arereceiving the informationthey need to make deci-sions,” said KarenAmmann, superintendent.

The approach at theelementary level begins inkindergarten, with identify-ing harmful substances andbuilds up through sixthgrade, Ammann said.

In the seventh grade,decision-making activitiesplay a part in the curricu-lum all year, with two tothree weeks devoted todiscussing drugs andalcohol, Peterson said.

In the eighth grade,

refusal skills and role-playing are woven in withdecision-making in additionto the three to four weeksspent specifically learningabout alcohol and drugfacts through the textbookand videos.

One very useful tech-nique fromthe eighthgrade uphas been tohave thestudentsthink aboutrole modelsthey knowand askthem tospeak to theclass,Petersonsaid.

Forexample,high school students whohave been involved indrinking at Kwajalein arewilling to go to othergrades and talk about theirown experiences.

“Student-to-studentteaching is wonderful,”Peterson said.

Also to address the issue,

high school principal SteveHowell will send letters toall jr./sr. high parentsoutlining the program andasking for suggestions,Ammann said.

And the school willschedule guest speakersfrom police and medical

staff and willlikely holdparent issuesessionswith coun-seling andmedical staffin thespring, shesaid.

“What wewant is acommunityapproach,”Ammannsaid, indicat-ing that this

could include medical,educational and police staff,along with parents andstudents.

“If parents have concernsthey’d like us to address,we’d like them to tell us,”she said.Making the grades

In other council news,

Ammann reported that 98percent of elementary schoolparents attended parentteacher conferences at theend of October. Teachersreported very positiveconferences, she said.

Howell said at the highschool, 78 percent ofparents participated inconferences. He also saidthat 70 percent of the jr./sr. high school students, or121 students, were on thehonor roll with a B averageor better. Fifteen studentshad a 4.0 average.

In response to a questionabout whether this isunusually high, he saidthat consistently over thepast years about two-thirdsof the students have beenon the honor roll. And theyearn their grades, he said.

Howell attributes thisrelatively high rate toseveral factors: a higherthan usual number ofparents in this communitywho are exceptionallyinterested in theirchildren’s progress, anaverage student-to-teacherratio of about 10 and a verygood faculty.

remaining eight travelers arrived fromHonolulu. Dawson and one othervisitor, Voit Gilmore, had been toKwajalein Atoll over 55 years ago asmembers of the U.S. Navy.

The other visitors, although they didnot fight here, were self-declaredhistory buffs and either had been in theservice during the war or had a relativein the military. They came to Kwaja-lein Atoll to learn more about WWII.George Richardson, who joined theU.S. Army in 1946, summed up thereason why most of them had come.

“It is a matter of interest … it was aturning point in American history, aswell as world history, because it wasthe first time America really came togrips with what their future was,” hesaid.

Richardson, who was born in Hawaii,lived on Oahu when Pearl Harbor wasattacked. He said everyone in Hawaiiknew about Kwajalein from followingthe war in the Pacific.

“After Pearl Harbor, we had a fearof invasion,” he said. “Then, ofcourse, Midway happened and thatfear receded.”

The group, accompanied by residentand guide Scarlett Scholte, visited theIsland Memorial Chapel, historicalmarkers, Mount Olympus and bun-kers on Saturday afternoon. Gilmorepointed out familiar locations to hiswife, Josephine, and fellow travelers.

“We have done many trips in thePacific, but we hadn’t done this part,”said Josephine Gilmore, as she sur-veyed Kwajalein from Mount Olympus.“He wanted to come back.”

Gilmore, as a Lt. J.G., was assignedto Honolulu’s Naval Transport. He flewsupplies in and transported thewounded and dead out of Kwajalein,starting in 1943.

“Everything came through Kwajalein… it was very much the hub,” Gilmoresaid, explaining that late in 1945 his jobchanged.

“Our principal mission at thattime, since the war had just ended,was pulling out the Bikini natives toget ready for the atomic tests … in1946,” he said. “We got them settledin Rongelap.”

During his visit, Dawson remem-bered his service time on Roi andEbeye and left some memories forothers to share.

“It is a real pleasure to come backhere … to see where I worked,”Dawson said, laying out a yellowedstack of papers, complete with a hand-colored map of the atoll. “I broughtwith me today, this report I made 58years ago and am going to give it to thecultural association on Kwajalein.” Healso left some black and white photos ofthe Roi movie theater, church, Quonsethuts and the Marshallese people.

The group flew to Roi-Namur onSunday, and resident Ted Burrisaccompanied the visitors and describedthe different battle sites. Dawsonalready knew most of the sites, andvisited Green Beach, where his U.S.Navy troop ship landed on Feb. 5, 1944.

“Dawson had a hard time recognizingwhere he landed because it was sogreen,” said Robert Reynolds, grouporganizer and WWII Royal Air Forceveteran.

Responsible for putting up submarinenetting and for the protection of theharbors when he first landed on Roi,Dawson said he switched over toadministrative work after living andworking quarters were built. Uponpromotion to chief petty officer,Dawson moved to Ebeye to work on thespecial report for the Navy concerningthe military government in theMarshall Islands. Dawson donated acopy of the report to the MarshalleseCultural Center.

A history buff, Richardson said storiesfrom veterans like Dawson and Gil-more should be recorded for posterity.

Documenting first-hand experiencesfrom war veterans of all eras is part ofa national effort established by theLibrary of Congress, according to theAmerican Folklife Center at theLibrary of Congress Web site (www.loc.gov/folklife).

During a dinner hosted by AmericanLegion Post 44 before the group left,Richardson said that he and his wifeexperienced part of the documentationeffort during a recent Pacific cruise.

“We had perhaps 400 veterans ofWWII, mostly Marines, some Navy,some Air Force, a few infantry,” hesaid. “One of their projects was tointerview 100 of these people duringthe cruise … they were trying to getthe individual experience of whathappened to them.”

Recording, rather than transcribing,veterans’ experiences is importantbecause it preserves the voices andemotions, Richardson said.

During the war, Reynolds explained,he couldn’t talk about his experiences.

“During the war we were told not totalk … back then there was an unwrit-ten law. I wouldn’t tell them anythingbecause Hitler was listening,” he said.

“When my children asked me, ‘Whatdid you do in the war, Daddy?’ I didn’twant to tell them,” he said. The RAFpilot had flown night bombings againstGermany as part of Tiger Force, a jointeffort with the American Eighth AirForce.

“I didn’t want to tell them I wasfrightened, because I was scared todeath and daddies aren’t supposed to bescared,” he said. “So there are manyreasons veterans don’t speak abouttheir experiences.”

according to Suzanne Murphy, MarshallIslands Visitors Authority assistant man-ager.

Air Kiribati has gone internationalwith a French-made ATR-72-200, a twin-prop plane that can seat 66 people.

The planned schedule offers one de-parture day and one arrival day perweek. Departures are Wednesdays at9:26 a.m., with service including Majuro-Tarawa-Funafuti-Nadi. Arrivals are Fri-days at 3:29 p.m., originating in Nadi andgoing through Funafuti and Tarawa be-fore arriving in Majuro. The schedulehas already changed once, Murphy said,and things are still up in the air at thispoint.

The fare is $820 round trip from Majuroto Nadi, on the country’s main island ofViti Levu. Round-trip airfare betweenMajuro and Tarawa is $200 and another$50 between Majuro and Funafuti, thecapital of Tuvalu.

Yvonne Duarte, Continental TravelAgency manager, said that at this timeher office has not been contacted inregard to ticketing or other proceduresfor the new air service.

Murphy said airfare can be bookedthrough Pacific Unique Travel in Majuro(692-625-3409/6109; fax, 692-625-3868).

MIVA is excited about the tourismprospects of the new service, Murphysaid.

“This flight will link the RMI to Fijiand the rest of the South Pacific —New Zealand and Australia and themto us. Now we have a better opportu-nity to tap into the Aussie and NewZealand markets,” she said through ane-mail. “In the past, because therewasn’t that direct connection, theseweren’t priority target markets for us.But now we plan on taking full advan-tage of it.”

And by February, Murphy said, AirNauru is expected to begin an Australiato Majuro service, offering a direct con-nection to Down Under from theMarshalls.

“This will also provide Kwaj residentswith an opportunity to see the rest of thePacific, and it will probably be moreenticing for them to travel down south,as the U.S. greenback is much stron-ger,” she said.

from 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., while theentire island is invited to dine atCafé Pacific from 1 to 6 p.m. Adultswithout meal cards will be charged$13 while children under 12 mustpay $6.50.

The stock of meat is based on lastyear’s needs, but Denham said thatmeeting changing island eating hab-its is a part of his work at Surfway.

“When you have a large groupPCSing and coming in, you have achange in how people eat,” Denhamsaid. “The basics never change, butthe particular items do.”

The Surfway manager has beenon-island for 14 years and will haveseen four different primary contrac-tors after KRS takes over, presum-ably in January. Groups often repre-sent different regions and, conse-quently, have different tastes. Cur-rently, a majority on island seem tobe “steak-and-potatoes-type ofpeople,” though Denham said he’sseeing less requests for barbecue-style meats such as chicken and ribs.

“I wonder if people are out social-izing less,” he said.

In any case, the store is preppingfor the holidays with more partysnack items such as microwaveablehors d’oeuvres and the like.

Makos and the Barracudas renewedtheir traditional rivalry as the twoteams fought it out.

Championship meets differ from regu-lar swim meets in the awarding sys-tem. Instead of a normally receivedribbon for first, second or third place,the swimmer receives a medal for hisor her achievements. Swimmers alsoreceive awards for personal bests andfor the person with the most overallpoints.

From Staff ReportsThe 2002 Kwaj Open wrapped up

with Alex McCalmont taking top hon-ors in the men’s low gross and SophiaGordon claiming the women’s low-gross title. Jim Roby received the SamGarland award for total and men’s lownet score, while Brenda Graham postedthe women’s low net score.

Organizers thanked sponsors Conti-nental Airlines, which provided air-fare for visiting pro Mark Knowlesand gave a round-trip ticket to Hono-lulu as a door prize, and Matson Ship-ping, which provided four $100 giftcertificates to Honolulu’s SuntoryRestaurant and four Koa bowl tro-phies for low gross and low net scorewinners.

Aeromet: Strong winds likely through weekendBy Peter RejcekAssociate Editor

Boaters beware: The same strongwinds that shut down the Gary K.McMillen Small Boat Marina last week-end are likely to blow through thiscoming weekend as well.

“It’s a bit unsettled out there,” saidJeff Mullins, Aeromet meteorologist,adding that the station’s lightning de-tection system was lighting up likecrazy as of this morning.

A small craft advisory has been in

effect since yesterday and is expectedto continue at least through today,Mullins predicted. The red flag, whichis flown when sustained winds of 20knots or greater are blowing, was upall last weekend.

“I think it will calm down tomorrow,at least,” he said.

The source of the latest weather isfrom a disturbance in the south. An-other disturbance is to the east, nearthe Dateline, and that could cause prob-lems depending on how close it gets.
