Leaders: RUSSELL HARRISON (2-4593) ELVIE MANLEY (2-6065) -//" "Have you ever spread a blanket down beneath the star-strewn skies? Rolled yourself within its cozy folds to sleep, At the base of mighty mountains, with their peaks that rise and rise? Have you known the age-old silence that they keep? Have you seen the red sun climbing up the eastern slope, Known you will ne'er forget those rugged, happy days? What! you've never known the glory of the new-born day? Then go—it's a hard road to travel, but it pays." Harry M. Dean 50
