This short clip from a recently digitized home movie captures the end of a meeting with photographer Larry Burrows and writer Chuck Elliot on assignment for LIFE magazine to do a story on Dr. Gordon Seagrave and his hospital on a hill above Namkham, Burma (Myanmar). From left to right: Dr. Violet Poo Nya, Burrows, Elliot, and Seagrave. Dr. M. Donald Olmanson was behind the camera. Several months later, Dr. Seagrave, convinced that the LIFE article would not be published, complained in a letter that “The two Life boys came in through the back door from Bhamo after having been forbidden to come here by the Army and did land in jail and would have been kept there indefinitely except for my prestige at that time with the Army. Since Life came here not one single American has been allowed to come, not even the Ambassador. All kinds of excuses are given by the Army for not letting them come up here but undoubtedly the main reason has been Miss [Gloria] Emerson, CBS and Life. Our hospital ambulance and our hospital truck make frequent trips to Lashio and Bhamo. Other folks are shot up but our folks—knock on wood—are never shot up.”
The “Life boys” were sprung from jail and spent a couple weeks in Namkham. In a 5 December 1961 letter Dr. Olmanson wrote: “Two men from LIFE have been here the past week & will leave in another week. They are nice fellows & have been eating dinner here. Larry Burrows (an Englishman) is the photographer & Chuck Elliot (American) the writer. They are stationed in Hong Kong. Larry has done a story with Hemingway, been beaten up in the Congo and played games with King Faisal . . . They seem to like this place & may come up with a pretty good story.”
Burrows and Elliot were good house guests. They even fixed the Olmansons’ refrigerator. The LIFE article was finally published in January 1963, featuring photos taken by Larry Burrows.

Dorothy June Crouch, 89 (June 6, 1931 - January 1, 2021)
Her passion in life was to bowl and was a 50 (+) year member of the National Woman's Bowling League and won many awards including a State Games of Americas gold medal during her bowling career. She would always tell you to keep that thumb at 11 o'clock and bring that arm up over your shoulder! She graced the stage of The Price Is Right show winning her prize package and will be remembered playing the piano, guitar, singing and crocheting beautiful blankets.

Had Johnny U. on the cover and a few Colts stats on the inside cover. Other than that, it was just a 1967 NFL rule book.
the national bowling store has a pile of these sitting out for people to read while they are waiting for their balls.
