After escaping from a Japanese prison camp he was taken to Walter Reed Hospital, Washington.

Sight of a Kelly-Springfield Tirei Company billboard aci as he was taken to a Japanese prison camp was a reminder of home that gave a poignant pang to Lieut-. Joseph F. Boyland, 26. son of Mr. and Mrs.

T. Boylaiid. street, who came home yesterday evening from one of the outstanding experiences of the war in the Pacific. Promoted to Second Lieutenant during the battle of Baiaan in the Philippines, the Cumberlander was taken prisoner after the fall of the islands Japs, and, after a year's imprisonment, escaped. The details of his escape form a military secret that- Lieut.

Boyland will not- even hint about. Notified by the War Department June 20, 1942, that their son was missing in action, as of May 7, the family had no further word until early this year when they received a letter from the Lieutenant himself. Then upon his arrival in got me into this," he shot at set. Biehrji "But route great guy After returning to Washington tonight, Boyland will be given a 30-day convalescent leave, most of which he hopes to spend here. Lieut.

Boyland is one of nine children of Mr. and Mrs. Boyland. He has two brothers, Eugene and William T. Boyland, in the Navy, the former in England and the latter in Philadelphia.

A third brother, George S. Boyland, resides in Provo, S. D. The lieutenant also has five sisters, Miss Rita Boyland and Mrs. C.

A. Slaydon, twins, of Cumberland; Mrs. K. B. Smith, Cumberland; and Miss Virginia Boyland and Mrs.

John Connell, Washington. Washington about a month ago he phoned his home that he was in Walter Reed Hospital lor rest and for series of interviews and instructions from War Department bureau chiefs. If Lieut. Boyland could talk, it is certain, his story -would be one of the most adventuresome epics of the war. About seven years ago, Lieut.

Boyland started his Army service, serving from 1937 to 1939 in the Panama Canal Zone. When his enlistment expired, he returned to Cumberland and then in August of 1939 he signed up again, being stationed first in New York. Prom there he was shipped by way of the Panama Canal to San Francisco where he served about three months before being transferred to the Philippines, arriving there 5n January, 1940. He -was stationed in tile Philippines when the war broke out and was on Bataan when the Japs took over. Included in the group that made the historic "March of Lieut.

Boyland would not go into any detail of the sufferings and privations through which the captured Americans and Filipinos went. "Did you want to take the risks of escape from a Jap prison camp knowing the penalties that awaited any one recaptured?" he was asked. "Every one in prison must want to escape," he replied. "I wanted to get out so badly that penalties for failure didnt occupy much of my thoughts." Cautioned by the highest military officials in Washington not to say anything about how he escaped, Lieut. Boyland refused to answer any question? about his life in a Jap prison camp or how he got to Australia, whence he returned to the United States by plane.

An interesting angle to the Cumberland youth's thoughts while in prison is the most recurrent picture of Cumberland that came to, mind was'the City Hall area. "NatHraHy," he said, "I had a mental picture of all of Cumber-" One of the first persons he looked up today was Sergeant Clarence Biehn, local Army recruiting officer, who enlisted re-enlisted fri in 1937, and again in 1939.

Both men were arraigned and posted $1,000 bond for a hearing May 11 in Hagerstown before Commissioner Little. A military police sub-station made up of a detail of 11 men with headquarters at 17 South Liberty street will begin operations here at 7 p.

Staff Sgt John B. is in charge of the local station.
