ALLEN Glenn Allen, as&ocnt d with the Thomas Hardware Co., is in re- ceipt of an interesting letter from his son, Pt. Kenneth R. Allen, now with the United States forces in New Guinea. Pvt. Allen states that we think the foilage grows thick in Alaska, but that in New Guinea a Jap can crawl up to within three feet of one without being seen, and | that the best progress that can be made in the jungle is from seven to eight miles a day. In addition to the Japs, other hazards beset the men in that part of the world, as revealed in Pvt.! Allen’s communication. He writes: | ‘I had an experience with a| snake at the picture show when two | of my buddies and I went one night. | There aren’t any seats, so we sat on | the ground watching the show and 1 felt something on my arm. “I knew right away what it was because I could see a slim neck and a large head waving between me and the screen. Not a muscle in my body moved as I asked Bill to shine his flashlight on me, He did and I guess the light blinded the snake, because I reached up and zrabbed it around the neck just below its head “Before 1 could get its head on ground so Bill could smash it with a rock, I had five feet of snake iround my right arm. The snake | w soon out of action, and closer 1mpc(Llon showed it to be a dia- mond head, a very poisonous snake. “I guess I was scared because I didn't know just what had hap-! pened until it was all over. No one | was hurt and I am none the worse." HIRSTS HONORARY MEMBERS OF ANB, ANS;GREAT HONOR Mr. and Mrs. Claude M.
