Three Moore Men Escape Chinese Trap
As Hungnam Evacuation Ends Dec. 25
is the third assistant home
It to leave the Moore coimty
via the nuptial altar within
past two years. Miss Flora
lonald, home agent, made the
linuncement philosophically,
le she said she greatly regrets
loss of her present assistant,
whose work of the past six
iths ^e had much praise, she
given due notice and expects
se able to secure a replacement
1 midyear graduates of Wom-
coUege or ECTC. The state
le demonstration office will as-
in this.
le marriage did not cause the
ly of 13 months ago when
Betty Shankle, Mrs. Mitch-
predecessor, announced that
had been married for some
bnths. This announcement came
luary 30, after midyear grad-
|tions, when available young
>men had all been placed in
3S. Miss McDonald had to car-
alone until June sent more
iuates out into the world —
jng them Miss Connolly, or
Mitchell.
|The state rule against marriage
assisitant home agents also has
considerably relaxed, it is
led. In the past it meant im-
lediate dismissal. Now, arrange-
|ents may be made for the new-
red assistant to stay, if she is
ig in the place where she
and if the county and dis-
ict agents approve.
[Mrs. Connolly offered to con-
the work in Moore on a
-time basis, to keep the 4-H
lubs meeting without interrup-
lon until a successor arrives. Miss
llcDonald said. However, this
Iras thought to be not feasible
ince adjustments would be con-
Iderable for such a short interval.
Quieter Than He'd
Anticipated, Says
Sgt. Smith, Vass
By Woodrow Wilhoii
The news of the succesful evac
uation of the UN troops from the
port of Hungnam on Christmas
Eve was pleasant tidings to at
least three Moore county families
whose sons were among those
safely removed.
The three Moore soldiers in the
group were Cpl. Sam Riddle, Jr.,
and Pfc. Roger Baxley, both of
Carthage, and Sgt. Julian Smith
of Vass.
The two Carthage lads were
members of the 17th Infantry
regiment which reached the Yalu
river at the Manchurian border
early last month only to make the
long retreat back to the port of
Himgham after Chinese Reds
started their big offensive. Both
recently wrote their parents that
they had arrived safely at the
North Korean evacuation port
after fighting their way from the
Manchurian border.
A dispatch carried by the As
sociated Press gave a few com
ments from some of the soldiers
who had escaped the Communist
trap and were being evacuated
from Hungham. Among those
quoted by a correspondent was
Sgt. Julian Smith of Vass. Ser
geant Smith was quoted as say
ing, “It was a lot quieter than
I thought the last day would be.
You know we are going to have
to retake this place some day.
I’m no strategist, but it seems like
it would be easier to hold onto it
now. Yet I’m glad to go. Who
wouldn’t be?’’
Sergeant Smith was a member
of the rear guard action which
held off the Communists at Hung
ham until the evacuation was suc
cessfully completed.
According to the military men,
this was the biggest and most suc
cessful evacuation ever executed
in war time by any nation. It is
reported that in addition to the
around 100,000 anti-Communist
arotmd 100,000 anti Communist
North Korean civilians were also
evacuated. Some 350,000 tons of
supplies and equipment were also
carried out. The evacuation pro
ceedings took 14 days.
President Truman, when told
of the successful evacuation at
his home in Independence, Mo.,
on Christmas day, was quoted as
saying, “That is the "best Christ
mas present I could have.
