We at The American have an
over-size post card from Mr. and
Mrs. R. J. Crump, 310 East Hayes.
The Crumps have been in Seattle,
Wash., visiting with their daugh-
FS&Sksks
City on a Moor'e-McCormack car-
go ship.
They made stops in Rio de Jan-
eiro and flew to Montevido, where
they visited with former El Reno
City Manager John Oliver Hall
and Mrs. Hall. They went on to
Buenos Aires, Argentina, and San-
tiago, Chile, then to Lima, Peru,
and up to Panama City and to
Miami, Fla., where they visited
with their great-nephew and niece
Mr. and Mrs. Bill McDougle. Mrs.
Behne was away three months.
Crumps are expected home this
weekend. They say it has been
a perfect visit with the Aqua
Follies and the Gold Cup speed-
boat races on. They’ve had beau-
tiful drives, good food and visit-
ing with friends—cool too! Mrs
Crump and daughter were lun-
cheon guests«of Mrs. Carl Hocker.
Carl’s mother looks fine and wish-
es to be remembered to her El
Reno friends, the card says. They
also visited with the Earl Yosts
before the Yosts left for Cali-
fornia. After the Crumps had
been in Seattle a few days and
were at Northgate—a huge shop-
ping center—they ran into Mi.
and Mrs. Ralph Whitlock, 1118
South Barker. They were visiting
with their son, Dudley and fam-
ily.    : i
