Four Church Youths Arrive To Help Out 1 Pas-Point Bureau .Four new names were added to that unending list of people who have come from all sections of the country to assist the victims of hurricane Camille. Steve Curtis, Dave Curtis, Cliff Cain and Curt Gillespie of Cambridge, Ohio, arrived in St. Martin Thursday to do what they could in clearing the debris of the hurricane. The boys, ages 17 and 18, are members of the First Baptist Church of Cambridge. Last Sunday church members donated $160 to aid the disaster victims and the teen-agers volunteered to deliver food stuffs purchased with the contributions. They left home Monday morning for Richmond, Va., to assist victims of the flood | caused by the hurricane butj upon arrival were assured byj authorities that the situation was well in hand. So on to the Coast they came, spending Tuesday night in their tent on the grounds of the Alabama state prison. ’ 'Arriving in Ocean Springs Wednesday the boys distributed the foodstuffs, unloaded saws and other equipment they brought with them and went to work. Deputy Sheriff and Mrs. Matt Cox of Kensington Drive invited the boys to pitch their tent on their lawn. Cox said the boys have cleared and cleaned the property of Pete UViJiUUUi Ul 11UUU1<. IVii. Seymour has been hospitalized and is due to return home shortly. Cox said the boys would like to stay longer but funds are running low so they will be returning to Ohio in a few days.
