"Gambling is too important a moral issue
for Evans to duck. It is perfectly natural that
civic leaders as well as church leaders are
upset and concerned. For Evans to white-
wash his position by declaring he voted in
the legislature in favor of gambling to permit
it to become a referendum is not acceptable
to the hundreds of thousands of people in
this state v~o demand morality and integrity
from the man they choose to head the state."
---Mrs. Pat Schwald, Bothell housewife and
Republican (Seattle PI, Oct. 21)
"If Christcnsen had been willing to obligate
himself to special interest groups like Wcyer-
haeuser, he would have clobbered Evans in
the primary, but he refused to try to "buy"
the election. Christensen insisted that if he
couldn't win it fairly and honestly, and with
no strings attached, he didn't want it. Big
operators like Weyerhaeuser have a lot to gain
by having a man they can control in the gov-
ernors office."--L. E. Victor, a key Christen-
sen lieutenant (Seattle PI, Oct. 15)
"Evans is one of the most blatant political op-
pol~unists ever to run for high office in our
state. Evans talks about ethics, morality and
integrity in government. Yet he says he is
for the adoption of a gambling tolerance bill
and for turning government control of liquor
over to private interest."--The Roy. J. B. De-
Witty, Seattle Methodist minister (Seattle PI,
Oct. 21)
"I cannot vote for Mr. Evans for the follow-
ing reasons: Evans' tactics during the primary
campaign, especially his smear campaign
against Christensen. The treatment given to
Christenscn and his supporters following the
primary. The fact that Christensen conducts
himself by high principles whereas Evans op-
erates on cxpediency."--W. B. Henry, a key
Cbristensen campaign lieutenant (Seattle PI,
Oct. 22)

AMERICAN LEGION
The regular business meeting
was called to order immediately
following the dinner se~-ced to Past
Commanders and Past Prestdents
and their guests Oct. 20. The din-
ner brought out .some members
who cannot attend regularly for
various reasons. This resulted in
a lively and interesting meeting
with good participation by those
present.
Harold Lakeburg has complete-
ly recovered from the injm-ies suf-
fered some three weeks ago and
was present to give a full account
of how they were sustained. "Red"
i Clothier, Ray ~Uoble, John Eliason,
Cliff Wivell, Oscar Levin, Ray
Drebis and Barney McClanahan
were among those who exerted
special efforts to attend this meet-
ing.
Cliff Wivell gave some of the
histotT of the acqltisition and sub-
sequent development of tim Vet-
erans Cemetery. Cliff has been
active in this matter since 1943
when Bill WiL~iers, now deceased,
learned that the tract of land sur-
rounding the small plot then held
by Veterans of Foreign Wars
through donation by Frank Willy
for cemetery purposes was for
sale.
Cliff was one of the first Leg-
ionaires to se~-ce on the cemetery
committee and still is active in
that respect. He did not have
enough of the records with him
to give complete answers to every
question asked by members pres-
ent and a decision to have a his-
tory of the cemetery development
compiled was arrived at after con-
siderable discussion. Since no Post
member seemed aw~ilable for this
work, Oscar Levin suggested that
probably journalism students in
Shelton High School would re-
search the facts and write the
history as a school project. This
suggestion was adopted and Com-
mander Weston and Cliff Wivell
agreed to try to meet with approp-
riate Veterans of Foreign Wars
representatives for the purpose of
clarifying the questions as to the
operation of the Veterans Ceme-
tery that arise periodically and
remain only partially answered.
Adjutant Dobson reported 105
paid dues for 1965 and that five
new members had been acquired
since the meeting of Oct. 6. Com-
mander Weston won the door prize
--he won the big attendance prize
last meeting--and, since none of
the three members whose names
were drawn for the attendance
prize was present, that prize was
carried forward to be drawn for at
the next meeting Nov. 3.
