Newscopy: "A new Pan American Garden in Golden Gate Park Arboretum was started yesterday with planting of 10 native Uruguayan trees flown by Pan American Clipper as a gift from Montevideo to San Francisco. Above, Dionne Wheeler, 'Miss Harbor Day,' kneels with the originator of the goodwill garden, Oscar Galeno, Mission High School teacher, to help in the transplanting. Behind are Harvey Teller, Park Commission president, and Uruguayan Consul-General Eduardo Dieste. All Latin American counties have agreed to send native trees for the grove."
