Morris of 410 North Lemon street have received word that their son, Pfc. Bill Morris, has been transferred from London to Paris.

Iwo Jima Road Named for Local Resident Though he died at Iwo Jima last February, the memory of First Lieutenant William A. Stevens, formerly of Anaheim, will live on for his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William A. Stevens, Sr., of Santa Ana, who have been notified by Maj. Gen. G. B. Erskine of the Third Marine division, that a road on that far away island has been named for him and for another marine lieutenant who also gave his life on the bloody battlefield. The letter to his parents also included a photograph of the Burke-Stevens road. The order for the dedication of the road commended Lt. Stevens for repeatedly exposing himself to enemy fire to better observe the enemy position while directing naval gunfire on Japanese artillery positions. Through his direction many enemy batteries were silenced before he met his death. The letter read in part: "I can pay this gallant marine no higher tribute than to echo the words of the order naming the road, a copy of which I am also sending you. Your son's name will not be forgotten and his devotion to duty and brave spirit will be an inspiration to all of us in the hard battles which still lie ahead." Lt. Stevens was on his third tour of overseas duty, having served previously in Iceland and in the south Pacific.
