Box Huckleberry In Penna.
May Be Oldest Living Thing
For many years, most experts
considered the giant Sequoias of
California to hold claim to that title.
Then, a few years ago, botanists
estimated that the gnarled bristle-
cone pine which lives high atop the
Sierra Nevadas was still older, but
ever since 1846 a small group of
scientists have hazarded the opinion
that the oldest living thing may
well be a lowly, unspectacular plant®
discovered in Pennsylvania called
the box huckleberry.
The age of one colony, located
near New Bloomfield in Perry Coun-
ty, has been estimated at 13,000
years!
A four-acre colony of the plant is
now preserved by the state Depart-
{ ment of Forests and Waters for its
unique botanical interest.
The box huckleberry is a low
shrub with creeping stems. It has
white and pink flowers and bears
blue berries in July and August.
The state - owned huckleberry
colony is located on a dirt road a
half mile south of New Bloomfield on
State Route 34.

Trucksville Couple
Dream Of Alaska Motor-Trip
After motoring 12,000 miles in two
months, a Trucksville couple has re-
turned home, exuberant over ex-
periencing a trip that has been in
the dream-stage for years.
When Mr. and Mrs. Luther Greg-
ory were married in 1953, they mot-
ored, as a wedding trip, to 'the far
west, a trip of some 6,000 miles.
Starting August 1 they outdid them-
selves, and fulfilled a long-time plan
of Mr. Gregory of going to Alaska by
car.
The car was actually a truck al-
tered by Luther and his brother Rich-
ard for Wyoming hunting trips, so as
| to provide a shelter on wheels. Hang-
ing on the back of the house on
wheels was g fifteen foot trailer.
The adventuring family entered
Canada by way of North Dakota,
after starting morth through Chicago
| and the Lake States. From Pennsyl-
vania to the Canadian border, they
lived in ‘trailer camps. After that,
they lived at camping grounds.
Camping out is the popular way
to travel in Canada, Mrs. Gregory
noted, but is not much in the mode
in our country, except in Alaska.
The most striking part of the jour-
ney, she thought, was the panorama
of mountains in the Pacific North-
west. Since a great deal of the trip
was spent wrestling with the road
SECTION B-— PAGE 1

part was the best part.
In Alaska the Gregory family en-
countered rain every day in some a-
mount or other. It was fall there
much earlier than here in the Back
Mountain. But the summers end so
quickly in the north country, said
Mrs. Gregory, that there are none of
the beautiful colored leaf patterns
in landscapes that there are here.
Getting their bearings and supplies
at Fairbanks, a good-sized city, the
couple then camped for a week at
the base of Mt. McKinley, the highest
peak in North America, while Luther
went caribou-hunting. ?
Then they traveled down to An-
chorage and the Kenai peninsula,
where recent oil discoveries have
been made. In the small towns along
the sea the Gregorys encountered
the highest area of Alaska--prices.
Cheeseburgers in no-place-in-particu
lar cost .95, a Bacon, Lettuce, and
Tomato sandwich $1.10.
But the food prices were small
matter, since they cooked out a lot.
The best part of the trip was the
cheapest, and the two adventurers
took lots of pictures to preserve it.
They returned to Trucksville Tues-
day, ‘September 25, in time for the
colorfull fall here. Mr. Gregory is em-
ployed by Wyoming Valley Equip-
ment Company.
