Traffic Accident Here
Injures Local Resident
By FRANCES CATTO
, LILLIWAUP--- Yerne (Tex)
Shields went to the hospital in
Shelton Friday for examination
and x-rays following a traffic
accident late Thursday after-
noon, when his car was struck
from behind as he Mowed to
pick up his mail frm the road-
side box near his Indian Beach
home. A power pole, almost
sheared off by the impact, was
credited with saving the car
and its driver from plunging
over the bank.
A pickup, relx)rtedly driven
by AI Fuquera and owned by
J.R. Schembrie of the Sea and
Shore Pile Driving Co. of Belle-
vue was the other vehicle in
the collision.
Both cars received consider-
able damage, the Sheilds car
being alrrmst a total loss.
Fuquera, who has been stay-
ing at the Lilliwaup Motel, has
been constructing a summer
borne for his son-in-law and
daughter north of Lilliwaup. This
reporter has no details about
any injury to him. The accident
was investigated by the State
Patrol and the sheriff's office.
Starting in early February, an
air-travel tour that included
many interesting Asiatic places
of interest was completed by
Mr. and Mrs. E. O. Gunkel when
they arrived in San Franci:co
early iast week. They were met
there by their son-in-law and
daughter, Mr. anti Mrs. B.W.
Spoper, Jr., and were driven
home to Lilliwaup, arriving last
Thursday.
Greece was the first destina-
tion 'in their smoothly-run tour
itinerary, which, the Gunkels
said, began at: about the point
where they c¢)rnpleteti their 1965
European travels. Other places
visited included Turkey, Leban-
on, Jordan, Egypt, Iran, India,
Thailand, Singapore, Hang Kong,
the Philippines, Taiwan, Japan
and Hawaii.
Three weeks were spent in
1ourin,. in Japan and visiting
their daughter, Mrs. Marilyn
Johnston, who teaches in a
school near Tokyo for the chlhl-
ren of military personnel. Mrs.
Johnston, who will return home
this summer, has used her va-
cation periods to tour and be-
come acquainted with Japan.
Much impressed were the Lilli-
waup travelers with the moder-
nity of Tokyo, with its eleven
million people making it rank
as tile world's largest city. They
were delightfully surprised, they
sRI, with the growth and mod-
er .facilliies of:Taiwan anti .
intrigued by Thailand in '*fheir
visit there.
Rally, pinochle pl;lyers, both
old-timers and beginners. Lilli-
waup Community Chlh's second
card party for this month will
be held Friday night in the
community hall. Playing starts
at 8 p.m. and there are prizes *
and refreshments following the

Mr. and Mrs. Robert M.
Sch-a2z, Sr. from Des Moines
are visiting their son and daugh-
ter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Robert
M. Schultz, Jr. at their resort,
Mike's Beach. They came Satur-
day to spend a few days.
Blackmouth are running and
bottom fish are exceptionally
good, commented Earl Maugee
of Rest While Park resort, when
asked "ttow's the fishing?"
Arrmng the weekend flsherrrven
were Mark Chisholm of Hoods-
port and a companion who both
"limited".
Low tides and sunny skies
brought many weekenders to the
Beacon Point resort, where busi-
ness during the week has been
getting under way too. In addi-
tion to salmon fishing, bottom
fishing in the resort area is
usually productive.
Fifteen were present for the i :
family dinner Sunday at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Allie
Robinson on Indian Beach. Mrs.
Robinson's son, Bob Erhart, and
daughter, Mrs. Bob Burman,
with their families enjoyed the
day at Indian Beach. The Bur-
roans from Bellevue came for

recovering from spinal surgery
recently.
Three of our community
friends had birthday anniversar-
ies April 21. They were Mrs.
L.L. Ager, Mrs. Jack Adair anti
E.O. Gunkel.
;Mrs. Ager's birthday was cele-
brated at the Thursday meeting
of the Hood Canal Woman's Club
of which she is president, when
Mrs. Edward H. Jenner present-
ed her with a birthday cake.
With her husband, Mrs. Agor i
went into Seattle Saturday, and
were dinner guests at the home
of his brother-in-law and sister,
Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Thorpe.
Visitors to Colony Surf, the
new recreational development
three miles north of Lilliwaup,
have admired the tiki, an Ha-
waiian good-luck figure carved
by Mark Westby. The interesting
carving is a 5 by 12-foot one.
Later that evening the Agers
attended a wedding reception at
the Manhattan Community Club
for her great niece and her hus-
band, the newly-wed Mr. and
Mrs. Pete D. Thomas. Enroute
home Sunday they stopped for
a visit with lqIrs. Ager's':'cou-

THE RIGHT SPOT--Keila Pritchard, head of the South

the pit in which the pigs will be barbecued for the Hawai-

day afternoon to get an idea of the surroundings in which
his group of 17 natives of Samoa will be working as they
prepare for the progrmn. The barbecue pit, a hole about
10x10 feet square and two feet deep, will be located across
