Korea Just Rubble Pile Now
To Cpl. Kirkwood Johnson
Freeport Boy Is Home
Under Rotation Plan;
In Far East Three Years
Korea today Is Just a plle~of rub-ble
and you can have It, in the
opinion of Corporal Kirtowood John-son
of the U.S. Air Force, who is
spending a 15-day furlough with his
parents, Mrv and Mrs. Charles John-son,
of 37 Lee avenue, Free-port,
after three years in Japan and
Korea.
Corporal Johnson was sent home
under the rotation plan and is due
to spend a year in the United
States before going abroad again.
As a matter of fact, he has been
ordered to report to Mitchel Field
next Tuesday and expects to be
stationed there for the ne*t few
months, perhaps an entire year.
A member of the S132nd squadron,
ACW (Aircraft Control and Warn-ing
Service) Corporal Johnson is
a ground force man who works on
radar and other air force devices
and services. He enlisted four years
ago when he was 18. before he fini-shed
Freeport High School, and had
spent two years with the Army of
Occupation in Japan before the war
in Korea started.
Soon after trouble broke out in
Korea his outfit was flown to South
Korea. It moved North behind the
troops as they advanced 'until i;]fct
reached Pyongang, the capital 01
North Korea, about the time the
Chinese 'intervened-last December.
It had Its worst moments during the
evacuation of the capital, being un-der
fire from mortars and the small
arms of the enemy.
Corporal Johnson was sent back
to Japan a few weeks before sailing
for San Francisco on the "Patrick"
a fast troopship which reached San
(Francisco from Toklo in nine days
without making a single stop on
CPL. KIRKWOOD JOHNSON
the way. More than 1.000 boys caxne
hcme on the ship.
The Air Force gave Johnson ^bout
$193 for his fare from San Fran-cisco
to New York. He took the
money and bought an old car for
$200 and drove home. A buddy- came
with him as far as Salt Lake City,
where he became impatient after
an accident caused a delay. He came
on;iiome'by train/ leaving Johnson
:to, mate /the, rest .oi-the trip aipne.
V:' Johnson was a .'close friend otf
Wilbur "Bond, 'a Freeport boy -who
was killed In Korea nearly a year
ago. but they were in different
branches of the service and saw
notching ot each other after going
to Korea.
Three older brothers of Corporal
Johnson are veterans of World War
IT. Kirtowood has one year to serve
of his five-year enlistment, but he
expects to re-enlist. "r"nray make a
career out of it." he says. „.
Turn Your Clock Back
One Hour Saturday Night
Freeport residents are advised
to turn their, clocks back one
hour before ' retiring Saturday
night. It will give them an extra
hour to' sleep and' when they arise
Sunday morning they will be up-to-
date and not out of time with
the rest of the world.
Daylight savins: officially ends
Sunday morning at 2 ojn., but as
few sit up that late. It will serve
their purpose better if they take
core of this little detail before
going to bed. The end of day-light
saving means that.-It will,
now be dark when the average
person gets home from work in
the afternoon. Among the casual-ties
will be sofeball games that
have been played in the extra
hour of daylight provided by the
modern expedient of pushing the
clocks ahead -during the Summer
months.

Board Will Consider
Issuance ot Permits
To Protect Residents
Spaces Are Being Taken
By People From Other
Villages, Is Complaint
Tthe Village Board has "called a
public hearing to be held In the
Municipal Auditorium Monday
night, October 22, to consider what
can be done to improve parking
conditions for Freeport commuters*
Commuters now park along
Brdokiyji avenue, in the parking
field on Grove street back of the
Municipal Building and- in the
new parking field at Broadway and
Harding place. They are permitted
to park all day without a time limit
or charge. .
Recently, however, ibhe Village
Board has received many complaints
that commuters from other vil-lages
are pre-empting the space they
think should be reserved for Free-port
residents. As a result there
is not space enough to accommo-date
all the local commuters satis-factorily.
Those who catch the later
trains complain they find the spaces
all taken.
One .suggestion to be considered
by the Village Board la that the
village Issue commuting parking li-censes
for a.nominal tee^probatriy
$1 a.year—and exclude cars without
ffuch/llcensea trtxn the teffiflar com-muter
parkins fields. Trails license
would be a small lag that could be
attached to one corner of the reg-ular
license plate on . the rear of
the commuters' car. " -"'-' • •
*'Letters received at the Village
office- point out fehat Hempsteod,
Rockville Centre and some other
villages have been using such tags
for a number of years and that the
plan has proved helpful in main-taining
special -parking facilities for
commuters.
Representatives of all the Free-port
civic associations will be invi-ted
to attend the hearing, 'which
will be open to 'the .public, especial-ly
to commuters. Time will be given
to hear the grievances commuters
many have abbut present condi-tions
and consider various sugges-tions
for solving the problem.
