a prize and then we will have a par-

here to hand out treats to the
Spooks and Gobblins. So you
spooks be sure to make the Center

now living in Redwood City, Cali-

here that he and his wife Neva sur-
vived the California earthquake of
last week.
Bo said their house shook pre-
cariously, knocking things from
shelves and paintings and photos
from the wall. He said only one
picture was left hanging on the
wall, and that was a picture of Je-
sus, which Bo considered a sign
that Someone was looking aftra
them.
Redwood City is south of San
Francisco on the Bay.
Bo is due back this weekend for
the annual Alumni banquet.
Bo Spillars stands beside the painting of Jesus in his
California, home. The painting was the only article left on Bo's
