Campers report that the little sparrows especially liked the Spanish choruses.
A country mouse family had made their home in the piano while the Northrups
were away. Most notorious of all wore the tribe of bedbugs which had made their
camp in the boys' dormitory. It took about 60 pesos of Raid, H24 and Black Vlag
to exterminate them and make, sure there were no more outposts.

BROKEN SPRINGS.
July 27th, Mark and Anita were in their second accident of the summer. The Cuyler
truck suddenly went out of control going down d steep curve and as it headed for
the left side of the highway Bro. Lany Cuyler could not turn it back. Twice they
almost turned over when they hit the enfcankment and in the process Just missed
hitting a small VW. Finally the truck stopped, (The brakes had failed also.)
Both doors were sprung. The Broken Springs had caused the steering column to
freeze. When they looked to the right of the road they realized the Lord had
literally spared their lives. If the Cxiyler pickup had gone right instead of
left, they would have plunged over the bank and down into the canyon below.
This BREAKDOWN immobilized summer work during the repairs until Rodney and Maysel
arrived from the United States August 8 with the 1965 Dodge Van which had been
repaired like new after the June 24 turnover.
