Former missionary to South Korea thinks turmoil surely will come A former missionary to South Korea believes there will be turmoil in that country when the present dictator like government reaches the end of its rope. That was one of the things Dr. George Ewing Ogle told the Griffin Lions Club Thursday night about his 20 years of service in the mission field there. Dr. Ogle is a visiting professor of Christian Mission at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University. He has been there since he was forced out of South Korea in 1974. Dr. Ogle said he first was arrested in South Korea after he had asked a small prayer meeting group to pray for eight men who had been arrested. They were accused of being communists. Dr. Ogle said someone in the prayer group apparently was in the South Korean CIA and reported him. He was taken into custody a few times later and eventually had to leave. Dr. Ogle said the CIA is so called in South Korea because it is patterened after the U.S. intelligence. But in reality, the Emory professor said, the CIA in South Korea is more like a gestapo. Even in the smallest gatherings, someone in the CIA MERLE NORMAN COSMETICS IMS. Hill St. Griffin, Ga. 227-9188 Skin Care & Make-up Consultations.

He said the CIA network of South Korea reaches even into the United States — as close as the consulate in Atlanta. He said South Korean CIA agents in America have two purposes: to harass and intimidate Koreans living in this country and to try to influence members of congress through bribes and other means. He noted the Rep. Jack Flynt of Griffin as chairman of the House Ethics Committee was looking into the alleged bribing of some congressmen for favors toward South Korea. Dr. Ogle said when President Ford visited South Korea, that was tatamount to an endorsement of the government there. He said many citizens in South Korea who support America didn’t want Ford to visit because they knew this would happen. South Korea today is tom between the debate that it cannot develop democracy and an open society without a dictatorial government. Many in South Korea believe that the nation can develop economically and in a democratic way at the same time, he said. Their views do not prevail now, Dr. Ogle said. He said the hope of South Korea was that an open and free democratic society would be an alternate to the communist regime of North Korea. However, he said that the military influence of South Korea at present has pretty much negated that hope. Dr. Ogle said that Gulf Oil Corp., and other large business interests in South Korea pump large amounts of money into that country which in turn finds its way back to the United States in the form of influence peddling in the halls of congress. Dr. Ogle lamented the loss of free high schools and universities in South Korea to the domination of the military. He cautioned America to be on guard to always keep the military in this country under civilian control. A free press plays a vital role in a democratic society, Dr. Ogle said. He said it was important to have an open and free flow of information. He cautioned against monopolistic tenedencies he observed in the press of this country. Dr. Ogle believes America could withdraw some of or nearly all of its forces from South Korea without having a collapse there. He said South Korea is heavily armed with its own armies. U.S. troops there are more symbolic than anything else, he believes. Lovejoy Harwell was program chairman for the night. The Lions meeting was held at the Moose Club.

Griffin Daily News Friday, February 25, 1977 ■ W< ' Sambo’s restaurant to open in Griffin Sambo’s Restaurant, a nationwide chain of fast service dining, will locate in Griffin on the old Randall and Blakely site at West Taylor and South 16th streets. A well remembered local eatery, Dick’s Snack Shack, owned by Dick Piland, operated for many years on the site. The restaurant will be equipped to serve as many as 120 customers at a time, including banquet facilities. It will feature sit-down, moderately priced family dining with more than 100 menu items and fast service, 24-hours a day. About 40 people will be employed there. The Santa Barbara, Calif., based chain operates more than 735 outlets in 40 states and was founded in 1957 by Sam Battistone and F. Newell Bohnett, who combined their nicknames — “Sam” and “Bo” — and their talents to turn a dilapidated beachfront restaurant into a moneymaker that set the pattern for Sambo’s Strange dogs ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Binky the polar bear has joined the rest of the strange looking dogs in Cal Worth ington’s imaginary kennel. Worthington, a car dealer with operations in Anchorage and California, went to the Alaska Children’s Zoo Wednes day, climbed into the cage with Binky and filmed a few antics. He lost his cowboy hat to the bear in the process. The auto man is planning to use Binky in a series of tele vision advertisements featuring Worthington and “my dog Spot.” The role of Spot pre viously has been filled by a bull, a killer whale, a tiger, a lion and a snake.
