Increase In Traffic Noted On Canal
By FRANCES CATTO
LILIAWAUP-- Hood Canal
residents have been noting the
great increase in traffic bringing
visitors to marvel at the wild
charm and beauty of their Olym-
pic Penninsuia region• They are
also noting that an increasing
number of these visitors, who
come either as tourists or as
guests in the homes of friends
and relatives, have been buying
property.
Some are building homes, eith-
er for immediate retirerrmnt or
to use as weekend and vacation
places until the day finally ar-
rives when they breathe the fresh
salty sea' air, as they walk up
their own evergreen-shaded path.
to get their retirement checks at
a roadside mailbox. And per-
haps, then, as they watch cars
go by, they will shake their
heads, hoping that this wilder-
ness paradise won't become too
crowded.
An example of the dream-home
building that has been going on
during the past year or so is
seen in the secluded Ayock
Beach area, about five miles
north of Lilliwaup. Here on the
old Graves estate, with its 5,000
feet of waterfront and 25 acres
of inviting woOded space, ham-
rner and saw have been busy.
Home construction has been go-
ing on for the latest nine fam-
ilies to build at Ayock Beach.
It was only about seven years
ago that development interests
purchased from the late Dorothy
Graves, widow of Myron B.
Graves, the old homesite now
known as Ayock Beach. Graves,
a retired lumberman, raised
wheat on some of his land and
enjoyed his gardening hobby. It
is recalled that one year the
Graveses sold 10,003 bushels of
enjoyed by local people was when
Ben Everett of Eldon was joined
by his wife when he returned
to the Ls Angeles area aboard
the naval supply ship, Sioux
Falls Victory. Before his leave,
Everett had served as chief of-
ficer aboard the ship for seven
months, his duties taking him to
Japan, the Philippine Islands,
Viet Nam, Thailand and Malay-
sia.
After lVrs. Everett flew to Los
Angeles, the couple motored to
Mjexico and then returned up the
West Coast as far as Canada,
visiting many interesting places
enroute. Shortly after their ar-
rival home, Mr. and Mrs. Al
Blythe of Tacoma were house-
guests of the Everetts. They had
an enjoyable trip to Copalis
Beach, where they dug their
limits of razor clam. Blythe
served as an engineering officer
aboard the same ship as Everett.
Friday is potluck supper, busi-
ness meeting and pinochle eve-
ning for members and friends
of the Lilliwaup Community Club.
The series of events starts at
6 p.m., with the card party at
8 p.m. There are refreshments
as an aftermath of the pinochle
game, and prizes, including a
door prize for the players.
A house-warming party, attend-
ed by about 20 couples, was held
Saturday evening in the new home
of Sam and Billie Astley at Holi-
day Beach. Planning the affair
were Ms's• Joe McKiel and Mrs.
Rudy Schwab, who carried out
their arrangements to correspond
with the oriental theme of the
hoff'' s decor.
Browned Manzenita branches
with "cherry blossoms", for dec-
oration a punch bowl floating
the blossoms and a hollowed-out
pineapple holding hors d'oeuvre
were attractive features of the
refreshment buffet table. The
money tree for a house-warming
gift was also a cherry tree and
the Jack Adairs had added a
cage-basket of Chinese fortune
cookies for the guests.
1Vies. James (Chaz) Reedcr set
the tone for the gay evening
with her original verses, one
dedicated to Sam and one for
Billie Astley.
Building and decorating of the
Astley home has been a coopera-
tive venture of the couple and
much of Billie's skill in crafts-
manship is seen about the in-
terior. Colored rock designs, en-
hanced by the lighting have been
used in dining counter bar tops
and in the handsome coffee table
in the living room. Crushed glass
has been used by Billie for strik-
ing results also. Taking time and
travelling to find harmonious fur-
nishing has made an original
and interesting home. The Ast-
leys will now devote their at-
tention to the exterior finish
and landscaping.
They had formerly lived in
Hoodsport, where Sam has es-
tablished a business servicing
rolls for the paper mill industry
on the West Coast. His wife does
the bookkeeping in addition to
her work on their home project.
They were both surprised by
the party and appreciative of the
interest of their friends.
Mrs. William McKasson and
Miss Jan Hays were hostesses
last Thursday evening in the Mc-
Kasson hemsat a baby shower
honoring 1Viss Hays' sister-in-
law, Mrs. John Hays ("Torchy")
John, son of Mr. and Ms. Harry
Hays Jr. of the Lilliwaup Motel,
is on Army duty at an airbase
in Viet Nam, where he will be
alert for important news some-
time this month.
AMERICAN LEGION SCHOOL AWARD
winners at Pioneer grade school received
recognition last Thursday evening during
the school's spring concert program. Rich-
ard Walker, left, holds the certificate desig-
nating him as runner-up to Daniel Deffin-

organization set: up by the folks
who live there to take care of
mutual interests and problems.
They have a cooperative club-
house. 1Vrs. H. J. Runge serves
the group as secretary and Dick
Van Bevers as treasurer.
Air Force Captain Norman H,
Runge, with his wife and four
children, had a n-day visit:
with his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
H. J. Runge, at their Ayock
Beach home. It had been four
and a-half years since he saw
his parents and about five years
since the family had been to-
gether. Capt. Rungs comes from
his air force duties which have
involved travelling in the Pana-
ma and Central and South Amer-
ican area, coordinating South
American and North American
airways in NOTAM. He had been
commander at Howard Air Force
Base.
The Norman Runges left Mon-
day for the East where he is
to assume duties at Offutt Air
Force Base near Omaha, the
Runges' former home town.
Sightseeing trips in the vicinity
including Hurricane Ridge and
Lake Crescent, and a trip to
Tacoma, also a family reunion
made Captain Runge's leave time
go swiftly. Cousins got together
when his sister, Mrs. Charles
Folk and her husband and three
children came.
Twenty-one were present for
the family gathering Tuesday of
last week in the Ayock Beach
Clubhouse for a potluck dinner.
Mrs, Tom Cottenham, a foster
daughter of Capt. and Mrs. Rungs
with her husband and three
children of Spanaway, and the
Thomas Irvines of Tacoma were
among those enjoying the re-
union day.
