Fresno State student from Celle,
West Germany, recently com¬
pared the American and German
public view on the Berlin wall.
For 20 years the German peop]
have been continuously exposed
to the tension situation of a di¬
vided Germany. "Americans seem

" 'The Tunnel', a documented
television film. Is one ot the most
authentic presentations of escap¬

cameramen risked their lives to
show the actual digging of this

To what may one attribute the
German people's rapid recoverlne

Engine trouble, and not a service station in sight
It toos fitch a tiny speck on the ocean
that our tanker almost missed it!
Far out in the Sulu Sea, beyond the direct ship
lanes, the little Ermedita ran into trouble: a ahat-
tered crankshaft. The captain and some of the
crewmen left In small boats for help—but help
never came.
Seven days had gone by. There was no radio, just
a white flag fluttering from *±e roast. Not a ship had
passed. Supplies were running low. And hope, too.
Aboard our tanker, outbound to Sumatra, a lookout
thought he saw a flash of white on the far horizon.
The captain altered his course to investigate.
They found seven shocked, tired men, took mem
aboard, gave them medical care,1 and towed their
stricken vessel to the Philippines, saving their
means of livelihood.
Ifs only one of many times our tanker men have
made friends for oar Company by giving aid at sea.
On land. Standard men and women seek to make
equally good friends for our Company—by the char¬
acter of our public services, the
integrity of our products, and our
behavior as a citizen.
