I WAS A MALE WAR BRIDE — "Funnier than funny" lecture, a true, delightfully laugh-loaded adventure by Henri Rochard (Ph. D., Sc. D.) who
was one! You read the book, roared at the movie; now enjoy him.
California time December 15 on, or Easter. Other topics: Where Does
America Stand in Europe? — Racial Realities in the Mediterranean.
DEVERE BAKER, "Skipper of the raft Lehi", plants the seed of vital interest
(exciting as Kon-Tiki) in the forthcoming building and launching from the
Los Angeles area of Lehi III. Says Harold Link of the Breakfast Club:
"We found DeVere Baker an intelligent, serious, clear-thinking business
man determined to prove the legendary Lehi could have crossed the
Pacific to establish the ancient civilization of Peru, Central America and
Mexico about 600 B.C. He believes a study of that ancient people and the
300 years of wars that ended their brilliant culture might help to prevent
us from a 300 year (or 30-day) war that would destroy us similarly, lest
some day men of the future might ask, when exploring the ruins of our
great cities: 'Who were these people, and what happened to them?'
DeVere Baker must be classified with students of history and anthropology
— not with seekers after notoriety." Boys, girls, men and women — find
a spot for the story of this pre-Mayan to modern expedition establishing
a   new  frontier  in   history!
