[ I [ i i Peace Corps Mem[ .=rs Return To Harstine By LIZ ALLISON Brian Burch, son of Mr. and Mrs. 11. E. Burch of Point Wilson has just returned from his fourth year in the Peace Corp. The first two years following graduation from the University of Washington School of Art and Interior Design, were spent in India. The last two years Brian has been in Micronesia in the Trust District Caroline Islands in the South Pacific, a four hour trip by air from Japan. Saipan is the capitol of these some 2,700 small Pacific Islands (92 inhabited) spread over three million square miles. The Islands inhabited by about 100,000 people, were formerly ruled by the Spanish, German and Japanese, are now governed by the United States as a Trust Territory since World War II, under a United Nations Charter. Six hundred Peace Corp members have been in these Islands for the last few years helping the Micronesians to be ready for self government. Brian was stationed on the Ishmd of Moen, District ('enter. tie like all Corp members tried to -teach English and establish business methods. However, in his field, Brian designed a hotel, coffee house and other buildings with native materials. Native Micronesians were put ira charge and taught how to run the businesses. Although the hotel is rustic, the Americans have discovered it and the lovely tropical surroundings. It is rapidly becoming a Tourist resort and a mecca for honeymooners from Japan. Tropical Islands make us think of music, so we inquired about this. We learned that some of the young people have guitars, but can play only three chords and their music sounds like, "mock Western here, no rhythm." The singing and harmony was Patrick Weaver Taking Training Fireman Apprentice Patrick E. Weaver, USN, son of Chief (Ret.) and Mrs. Edgar E.

Inquiry about other customs brought the response the Micronesians do not make pottery. They make baskets from the Coconut Fronds and utilize the coconut to its fullest. The principle diet is fish, rice and bread fruit. Freighters call in the ports frequently bringing other foods and materials. The town of Moen has one large warehouse-like store by the docks. There one can buy anything from clothes to canned goods. Brian came home very lean. After a few days rest and his mom's cooking he is gaining weight.
