Phi Kappa Fraternity To Honor Navy Hero
The first University male student to receive the Navy cross is being honored by Phi Kappa fraternity tonight with a memorial dinner and dedication.
Lt. (ig) Marion Thomas Dragastin was killed in action May 18, 1951, over North Korea while flying an air strike. When his squadron leader, Lt. Fred Garrison, was forced to bail out over enemy territory, Lt. Dragastin ran repeated, protective strafing runs. On the last of these he was hit by enemy fire.
For this action he was posthumously awarded the second highest award given by the Navy. The citation commends him . . . "for his outstanding initiative, indomitable fighting spirit, and unselfishness in risking his life . . . he gallantly gave his life for his country."
An honor student in engineering at KU, he was recalled to service in the summer of 1950. He was a mem-

Pop Says "Your a Big Boy"
Thursday, February 12. 1953 University Daily Kansan
A federal court jury last night convicted the 35-year-old ex-sergeant from Sausalito, Calif., of committing four acts of treason against the U.S. The penalty on any one of the four counts could range from five years in prison to death in the electric chair.

New York—(U.P.)-John David Provoo, a former bank employee with a flair for Buddhist philosophy, faced a possible death sentence today for betraying his soldier-buddies as a prisoner of the Japanese during World War II.
Provoa was found guilty of contributing to the death of a U.S. Army captain who was executed by the Japanese, of volunteering his services to the enemy shortly after the fall of Corregidor in 1942, and of twice making propaganda broadcasts

Ex-Sgt. Provoo Found Guilty Of Treason in World War II
The jury failed to agree on a verdict on three other counts: charges that Provoo tried to persuade a U.S. colonel to give a military code to the Japanese, that he took a pair of boots from an American prisoner to give to a Japanese man, that Japanese officers question a prisoner about the secret hiding place of a fortune in Phillipines silver bullion.
The verdict climaxed a trial that lasted three and a half months and cost the government an estimated $1 million.
