Song Yong Cho, 12 year old Korean war orphan,
gets a shine today from Boys Town Mayor Bill Maddux, a few hours
after the waif's arrival at Father Flanagan's famed haven for
homeless boys. A year ago Song was shining shoes himself around
the Pusan railroad station. He had lost both feet from frostbite
but has since been fitted with artificial feet. Transportation
to the United States and entry into Boys Town was arranged by
U.S. Army befrienders. (AP WIREPHOTO)
