Scorpions: Captain Lee Dennison, 964 Hollywood Avenue, Salt Lake City, Utah, amazed us all with his limitless energy. No sooner had his boat tied up than he was off running agilely over the rocks and boulders. Due to currents, and other sundry difficulties, his crew missed two landings, but exercised the muscles of their legs hiking back to camp. Lee spends his nonratting days as a radar man for the Air Force. Nancy Butchereit, 4735 Cherry Street, Murray, Utah, had spent the previous summer Europe and was now balancing out her life by trying the Colorado River. She found it so stimulating and fun that she fell right in at Hole in the Rock, and we can be quite sure that she'll tell her first graders all about it in the fall. Judy Illi, 5827 North 11th Street, Arlington, Virginia, really lives at the nursing home of the Salt Lake General Hospital where she is Head Nurse in the emergency room. Her kind and thoughtful care was wonderful to have during the trip; and though she was often considered as masseur and first aider, she more than adequately served as a Rat as well. Norma Mills, 1317 East 17th South, Salt Lake City, Utah, became the first of the rats to be married (except for Lee Perry with whom she shared the honor). We rarely saw her without her movie camera with which she faithfully and inquisitively recorded the entire trip. She was an old rat, and she helped the inexperienced get along a little better. Peggy Turner, 998 North Main Street, Midvale, Utah, spent her last year teaching history (?) and genetics, although she is trained as a speech and English teacher. With her red hair and fair complexion, her biggest problem was the sun which caused her to become quite red, and even swollen. But she was a valiant one and sparked the trip anyway with her pert laughter. Marilyn Dean, 117 East 21st Street, Salt Lake City, Utah, (IN 6-0042) had just graduated from the Utah School of Nursing and joined Judy at Salt Lake General. Nurse Marilyn, too, had remedies for all sorts of things, and she had the remarkable talent to shave Bob and win the mud beauty contest. Lee Perry, 227 North 150 East, Provo, Utah, towered over us all in height and in ability on the river. If you had a problem or a question and Bob and Merly weren't around, you could ask Lee. His long drawl and his ever active, lean brown figure were a welcome part of the expedition. Because of his excellence, Lee often helped in the launch and, in general, was a stay of the trip. -36-
