Girl Scout News
At our usual Wednesday even
ing meeting we made our final
plans for going to camp. The Girl
Scout committee is behind this
project. We made lists of the things
they need for camp. Our cook,
Mrs. Betty Walsh, who was pres
ent, read us our shopping list and
it sounded as if we are going to
have some appetizing meals. Mrs.
Early, our camp sponsor, and Mrs.
Hudert, were also present and
gave us some good ideas. We are
planning on having a nice vaca
tion.

USS NEW YORK
SINKS QUICKLY
IN NAVY TEST
By Lief Erickson
ABOARD U.S. CARRIER BOX
ER, — {JP) —The once tough old
battleship New York, — survivor
| of two wars and two atomic bomb
! tests—sank finally with just a
i “slight push” from small bombs
^nd shells.
Navy task force officers ex
pressed regret that she didn’t
survive an experimental attack
long enough for them to test their
wierd bat bombs.
But an old officer who had
boasted the New York still could
take a terrific beating sadly re
marked:
“She was a tired old lady. What
was the point in taking more of
a beating?”
He is Daniel Connor of Paw
tucket, R.I., who served on her
when she was commissioned 34
years ago.
The exercises, 40 miles south
west of Pearl Harbor yesterday,
cost the life of Marine Lt. John
Delile Petterborg of Preston, Ida
ho, a Marine fighter pilot. He
spun into the sea off the Boxer’s
stern nearly two hours after the
i sinking.
i The 30,000-ton one-time grand
dame of the United States fleet—
survivor of two wars and two
Bikini blasts—went down at 2:30
p.m. after eight hours of air at
tack and light shelling.
Norway’s coast is more than
12,000 miles long, about half the
distance around the world at the
equator.
