Pvt. Grant Member Of 35th Engineers HOA DAI, VIETNAM (AHT NC)- Four months ago Private First Class Oliver G. Grant’s unit, the 35th Engineer Battalion, placed concertina wire around the hamlet of Hoa Dai, Vietnam, to protect it from the Viet Cong. The only trouble was the wire blocked the main access road the villagers used to take their pro duce to market. After the village chief inform ed authorities of the problem. Grant, 18, son of Mrs. Ruth M. Biddix, 616 E. Louisiana Ave., Bessemer City, N. C., and other members of the battalion’s Com pany D were given the task of building up the access road so the Vietnamese could pass over the wire rather than try to cross through rice paddies. The engineers hauled 3,000 cubic yards of fill and built two drainage culverts during the four day project. With completion of the two mile stretch of road early this month villagers are now able to drive their carts to and from market with loads of rice, char coal baskets and vegetables.

' i^( Heads Why your son will be bored when you give him an Accutron* timepiece for graduation. 1. He’ll have just two chances a year to fiddle with it. One, when he turns it ahead an hour for daylight saving time. And 2. When he turns it back again for standard time. Be cause the springs and things that make a watch run fast or slow have been taken out of the Accutron movement. 3. And that’s why it’s a bore for us, too. We can’t show off by repairing sprung springs, stopped wheels and worn watch works. Accutron has replaced them with a tuning fork that may never need replacing. . 4. He can’t bet on Accutron time. At least not without feel ing guilty. Because we guarantee he’ll be right. Within one minute a month.** 5. He’ll yawn when his boss presents him with a gold watch 25 years from now. Because his Accutron timepiece will still be accurate. What a bore.
