Letter: Reader has memories of Junior Conservation Clubs

Writer would like help identifying faces in photo; sends memories of the Junior Conservation Clubs and their leader, Adair County Game Warden Jim Hadley. Memories of summer camp at Camp Currie, near Benton, KY.

Ed:I have been going through some of my old pictures and I came across one I took at Camp Currie, the wildlife conservation retreat. It's amazing how your memory fails after 50+ years. I don't remember all these people. Thought you or some of your readers might help.

Help needed to identify kids at Camp Currie in the 50s



2006-08-26 - Benton, KY - Photo Billy England. Seven of eight boys now identified
Columbia kids at Junior Conservation Camp This picture was taken by me (Billy England) at Camp Currie in July, 1953. Kneeling, lower left, is Glen (Blackie) Lea. The next two in front I need help naming. Standing, two kids with one in a headlock; then Allan Reams, then tall black haired boy I can't identify, and on the end, Donald Graham. Ruth Ann Campbell has added the names of four Greensburg boys. She writes on August 30, 2006: The first boy in the second row is definitely Marion Whitlock. The tall dark headed boy in the top row is Billy Gene Pruitt. On the bottom row, the dark headed one is Clifton Beard, and Jimmy Stephens has his arm around him. -Billy England, 1291 W 375N, Anderson, IN.

Confusing the surface with the layer underneath

Mid way in her novel, Finding Courtney (Bridgeworks Publishing, 2004) Melissa Clark has the character Fanoy remark "Language may be a sham, but what we see with our eyes is not." By this point in the story we have learned not even to trust language when it reports what the eye has seen.
