US troops mix fighting, kindness in Vietnam By ROSS P, GAME Special to The Nugget WITH THE 9TH MARINES, in Vietnam--U.S, servicemen are in Vietnam to battle a large enemy force. But the same U.S. servicemen are spending much time giving a helping hand tothe warravaged people of South Vietnam. When the young Americans are not engaged in combat or military-support activities, many of them head into the villages and cities to participate in civilian assistance projects. : All branches of the U.S, mili‘tary services are conducting such programs in Vietnam, New hospitals and schools have been built, entire residential ateas--perhaps leveled by mortars or street fighting--have been reconstructed. U.S. military medical personnel provide assistance to ailing Vietnamese.

We can hardly forget that," In many instances, American GI's even share their food--"C" rations particularly--with hungry Vietnamese civilians. U.S. servicemen are firstrate fighting men--but they are also showing the people of South Vietnam that they are first-rate when it comes to giving a helping hand.

Is there a new gold strike in the making on the South Yuba River, in the town of Washington that can't seem to forget its former role as a hub of mining activity? Whether there's bonanza in the offing or not, residents of the town are panning gold right along the main street. The pans were broken out when Holt and Racon, contractor for the Washington Water District's new system, opened a ditch opposite the Washington Hotel. Usually reliable sources report the panners are "showing some Color" too, Week-end prospectors are expected to be competing with the locals just as soon as word leaks out about the panning activity.
