FEATURED ON HOLYWOOD
TELEVISION PROGRAM
On Wednesday evening of last
week Harold Greer picked up a
Hollywood television broadcast
that featured a. human interest
story abouit . Harris Pettier,. a
cousin of Bill Harris of Ripley.
Harris served in the Navy dur
ing World War II, and suffered
a fractured Hip while abandon
ing ship in the Bay of Biscay. He*
clung to a raft for many hours
beforebeingrescueaandwas
taken to London, England, where
another cousin, Capt. John D.
Munn’ was stationed. .Overseas,
Harris twice had the hip set, and
back in' Canada he twice more
underwent similar operations. At
first it was thought he would
never, walk again; but his final
recovery was miraculous and he
now has only a trace of a limp.
This story was the basis of the
telecast. Mr. and Mrs. Pottier and
son flew to Hollywood to toe tele
vised.

cation. It also recommended that

most worthwhile piece of work.
The Committee further recom
mended that ihe fox...bounty be

come increasingly destructive to
