By DELL HOI CIIINS A stroll down Memory Lane brings to each of us the vivid, nostalgic and cherished memories of yesteryear. Few have the ability to put on canvas the beauty and serenity of that memory for others; yet, that is what Carl Smart has done. Smart is a silk screen processor at Norton. He is an artist after his work day is done. It was while strolling down memory lane, recalling his boyhood days on the old plantation near Reelfoot Lake, thajhe decided to preserve the beauty of the old "home place" on canvas.

Though fire has long since destroyed the corn crib, the tobacco barn, the stable and the two-story house with high cherry wood ceilings, his recollection of "home" is sharp and keen. Says Smart, "This old plantation of slavery days may not be particularly interesting to library patrons, but to me this autumn scene recalls happy memories of my childhood." Carl Smart, who lives on Peach Tree Road in Yucaipa, exhibited several of his fine landscapes at the Base Library last July. This, his latest, is on display at the Base Library for four weeks. Richard E. Pennoni, 20, Navy submariner and missileman technician 3.C.

visited Norton last week to talk shop with his father, Richard J. Pennoni, aero research development and design engineer in the Office of the Deputy Inspector General for Safety. Senior Pennoni, a lieutenant colonel in the Air Force Reserves, had to hasten his briefing because of a pending military tour with the Foreign Technology Division of the Air Force Systems Command in Pasadena. Richard had 13 days leave before reporting back to New London, as a crewmember on the newly commissioned Polaris submarine, USS Sam Houston. Both he and the submarine will be on their first patrol within the near future.

The Pennoni family, residing at 6612 Pradera San Bernardino, also includes a daughter Janet, a senior at Pacific High School, and mother, Mrs. Jeanne Pennoni, secretary to the San Bernardino Air Materiel Area director of supply, Col. Woodrow Magness. Nortonites are proud of their "new look" NCO Open Mess and the part it plays in the activities of Norton. It is more than a social club.

Its tasteful decorations and large audience capacity have made the NCO Open Mess ballroom something of a "community center," used by many organizations on the base. Capt. Harry C. Russell, commander of the 2S48th Air Base W'ing, holds his monthly Class of 9 47 Plans Gala Celebration They're doing it agatn. After a successful ten-year reunion, five years ago, the Class of '47, San Bernardino High School, is in the midst of preparations for its 15-year reunion.

The gala event will be held on the evening of June 23 from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. in the new Kaiser Dome Building on the Orange Show Grounds. A class project with food and music provided by two classmates will be the order of the evening. Tony Trozero, proprietor of The Mug Restaurant on Highland Avenue, will serve a full course buffet including some Italian treats.

Annual "Poppy Days" in San Bernardino start Thursday and will climax Saturday, according to an announcement made by Leonard Armstrong Auxiliary 174-1, Veterans of Foreign Wars. Chairmen are Mrs. Sarah Finn for the Auxiliary and William Carr for the Post. The group is also announcing a new meeting time 7:30 p.m.

instead of 8 p.m. Mrs. Lela Clifton presided at the last Auxiliary meeting, during which funds were appropriated for the president to attend a banquet Li Los Angeles honoring National President Beulah Adamson. The event, held Wed nesday evening, was attended by Mmes. Clifton, Margaret Amschell, Esther Hudson and Mabel Carlson, past department president of Montana.

Mrs. Bernice Inglett was initiated into the group and a monetary gift was presented to the district by the Auxiliary. Mrs. Lenora Austin, district president, has chosen aid to cancer as her project. Delegates to the Bakersfleld convention June 24-28 were named.

Those attending will be Mmes. Nina Hennies, Amschell, Elaine Bade, Dorothea Tillquist, Ethel Dickson and Rena Cooper. Alternates include Mmes. Commander's -Call meetings there. "The ballroom is the only place I could find that will hold all my men," he says.

"It would take two sessions, if we were using the base theater. The facilities are excellent. I'm surprised more units on base don't take advantage of them." When Gen. McKee, commander of Air Force Logistics Command, visited Norton, the ballroom was selected for the location of his briefing with key Norton personnel. The ballroom has been used by Family Services for Air Force wives orientation, by civil service testing personnel for administering tests to large groups, and it is often used for conferences.

M.Sgt. James Carter, mess secretary -manager, says, "Many have expressed their appreciation for the use of our facility. We appreciate that, of course, for we are all proud of the ballroom and glad we can be of service to others on the base." NCO Wives Club members will be among volunteer workers to be honored at a tea at Patton State Hospital, May 23. The tea has been planned by the state institution's Occupational Therapy Department in appreciation of the volunteers' contribution to the welfare of patients in Ward H. The Norton wives, headed by Mrs.

Wives Club members conducted the games and helped patients to participate in the competition for prizes. Cookies, candy, popcorn, chewing gum and punch were served at the close of the party. Any members wishing to attend the tea or to help with the Patton project may get more information from Mrs.

Saunders at TU 43-1492. Protestant Women of the Chapel elected new officers at their May business meeting.
