MS W. 43RO STRICT INGLCWOOD 0477 Here's How Five Southtowners Met On a Pacific Isle Fate Brings Friends Together in Front of a Movie Theater. Five excited service men gathered together in front of a movie theater in a South Pacific island about a month ago. Three soldiers, two were sailors and all were from Southtown. Graduates of Leo's high school in the class of 1934, they all had been members of the same football team and three of them lived in the same block in Englewood.

The story of how they met reads like fiction. Here's how it came about: Knows a Voice. Sailor Richard Kearns, son of Mrs. Mary Kearns, 711 W. 71st was on a transport ship that was taking soldiers to a South Pacific island.

As he walked along the deck he heard a group of soldiers below deck laughing over a card game. Among the voices he distinguished that of Roger Sheehy, son of Mr. and Mrs. Roger Sheehy, 7653 Halsted st. Meanwhile, William Giblin, sailor son of Mrs.

Lucy A. Giblin, 7612 Emerald had heard that Richa'rd was on a ship bound for his South Pacific base. For eight months he met every boat and when the right one finally came he was overjoyed to see not only Dick walk down the gang-plank but also another friend, Roger. Meet at Movies. But fate had still another surprise in store for them.

Thus surprise came when the boys went one day to a movie theater at the base and saw Soldier Lawrence Clark, son of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Clark, 7015 Indiana and another Southtown soldier, Raymond Rolewicz, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Rolewicz, 7648 Hermitage standing in front of the theater.

Raymond had met Larry by chance at the post exchange not long before that and were more than surprised to see three Southtown friends coming toward them. And that is how five Southtown service men happened to be "whooping it up" in front of a South Pacific island theater one day not so long ago.
