PageS THE KEY WesT CITIZEN Wednesday, South Koreans Storm Heights By ROBERT TUCKMAN SEOUL (—South Korean infan- trymen stormed back to recapture three strategic heights on Sniper Ridge and Triangle Hill in long, bloody battles today. But they failed to throw Chinese Communists off the Yoke, a maze of tunnels and caves at the north- ern end of Sniper which has been the key to firm control of the im- portant ridge. AP war correspondent John Randolph, reporting from the blaz- ing Central Front, said Republic of Korea (ROK) troops regained all the grouad they lost to furious Red artillery-supported assaults Tuesday night. That included: Pinpoint Hill, dominant height on Sniper Ridge, retaken by a five- hour infantry assault preceded by an hour-long artillery barrage, Rocky Point, highest peak on Little Finger Ridge, as well as most of the rest of that ridge. Jane Russell Hill, on the north: @ast edge of Triangle, recaptured fm a counter attack that began at dawn. Two Red companies—3s0 men — wrested the twin peaks from the Allies Tuesday night. Once they had secured the crest of Pinpoint, elements of three ROK regiments drove northward against the Yoke, taking part of it in a blast-them-out, burn-them-out bat- tle against entrenched Reds But the South Koreans were forced to withdraw before dark The Yoke is a virtually impreg- nable redoubt at night.

It is only that what they say to the Grand Jury un- der oath that is protected by se- erecy.

SCORES SEE PARADE (Continued From Page One) perched on shop roofs. Police were kept busy herding small fry and the usual stray dog out of the line of march, but the parade, which last- ed three quarters of an hour, was voted one of the best organized. ” First blaze of color and mar- tial music was heralded by the U. S. Marine Drum and Bugle aside from their testimony before | Corps and color guard. First big float was the Fleet Air Detach- ment entry with models of planes and a helicopter suspended above ted aviators in yellow life- manfully plying paddles. “Miss Key West,” Gloria Muniz, posed in solitary splendor in a black bathing suit. San Carlos pre- sented three beauties in patriotic robes. The USO float was draped in red, white and blue bunting and displayed more of feminine charm. Outstanding in the first division, was the Lions’ Club float which ran the winning one a close race. Children in appropriate costumes Portrayed a blood bank ‘in action jand its benefits. Grinning Little Leaguers were also on the Lions’ fine entry. The second division featured the Key West High School Band with a bevy of majorettes in skirts, cocked hats and boots twirling flags and batons while the {band played with skill and vigor. Smart marching unit was the U. S. excellent marching groups was the Submarine Squadron Four unit | which rated next to the winners, The Elks club float was topped | by a lifesize elk with lights on his jantlers and children under its pro- tective stance. Two unusual attrac- | tions were in the second division: ja lone sailor playing a bagpipe j without benefit of kilts but with a refused to disclose the name of a} story. j One of the jurors rose and said/ bonny accent on the pipes; and |some junior circus clowns who were show wise end put on a {prank in front the judge’s stand.

We Albury feels that even where ave not collected from the patient for anesthetist services performed by Shepard, we should pay it out of our own ket,” Srcniraikneciecs agreed unani- mously with Albury that this prac- tice would stop and that Shepard | would have to do his own collect- ing for services as anesthetist. AUTOPSY WORK (Continued from Page One) next day. We don‘t get five cents for this.’ ‘ | County Legal Advisor Paul Saw- | yer pointed out that payment to the hospital for autopsy service would | be taking it out of one pocket to |put it in another. The county | would have to pay in the end. | It was agreed, however, to sug- gest to the three Coroners of the county that autopsies on victims of violent death, or persons who had | not died at the hospital, be per- formed as they were formerly, at | the local undertaking parlors. | winning Naval Hospital float was also in this section. A couple of ponies must have made the rounds twice as their riders, a cowboy and an Indian re-appeared in the ‘last division again. Sinawiks and bathing beau- ties were synchoronized. Sea Scouts, Girl Scouts, and Boy Scouts troops and the Cub Packs all rated appreciation. Judges included Admiral Irving T. Duke, Juvenile Court Judge, Mrs. Eva Warner Gibson, sate Representative Bernie C. Papy, Mrs. Raymond Felton and Hank Day, newspaperman.
