People You Know highlights Taipei visit by Verna Heaton
Mrs. Nellie Melton of Lodgepole shares a long clipping from a Lead South Dakota paper about holidays and traffic in Taipei.

Major James R. Wamsley, Sidney native, will observe the Gemini flight from Cape Kennedy as a flight surgeon in the space program.
