BYEBS United Press Staff Cemspondent TOWNER, COLO, May i (UA-Bryan Untiedt, 13-year-old hero of the Plesuant Hill school bus disaster, arrived In Towner today as happy aa a boy could be at the end of as great adventure as a boy could have.

Bryan climbed down the steps of his railroad car with his eyes as big as saucers as be looked out upon the handful of residents of Towner who met the train. He was looking for someone, It was apparent. When he didn't aee whoever It was he wis looking for be teemed a little abashed. When a few photographers had focused their cameras the smile had gone from hit face. None of his family was at the train to greet him, or were any of his playmates from the Pleasant Hill school.

There were lust nine children from Towner who stopped at the railroad station en route to their own school and half a dosen grownupa. Among the latter were only two known to Bryan, Mr. and Mrs. C. E.

Heaney. Mrs. Heaney, who was Bryant teacher at the Pleasant Hill school last year, grabbed him from W. H. Davenport, government agent who escorted him home and kissed him.

The others looked on without saying a word and Bryan was em barrassed: He had been at the White House, conducted himself nobly In the presence of the great and had never teemed at a loss, but for a 13-year-old boy to be kissed publicly was a Utile more than he could be expected to endure. In bit embarrassment Bryan had to do aomeUiing. and he did Just what any boy his agi and tn his same position would have done. He diverted attention from wmaeii to something else. "Here, let me show you this new gun I got," he exclaimed, and with attention momentarily directed to the rifle given him by Allan Hoover, Bryan dug Into the cartridge raw and brought forth a half dozen car tridge.

He fitted the cartridges Into the magazine of the rifle. -Now watch this." he said. He emptied the rifle at a nearby telephone pole and ran across the railroad tracks to the pole. After be examined It he whirled around excitedly and shouted: 1 hit It every shot." His eyes shone and he had diverted attention from hit clothe which were new and his hands which teemed in the way to him at first. Now perfectly at ease he addressed himself to Davenport: "Well, lets get going." he declar-ed, and the Heaneyt took him and Davenport In their auto and started the li mile trip to tht Untiedt ranch home.

Pel low paasengera of Davenport, including a )ovlal priest, shouted to him "get torn rest now, Davenport." And tht government agent, a figurative presidential wing, blushed as he admitted he was pretty well worn out by the strain of keeping up wlto lively Bryan since he took him away from Towner tecretly 10 davs ago headed for Washington.
