Governor's inspection tour of O.D.I. summer camp. Governor Dan Evans (L) is being interviewed on July 9, 1968, as he inspects the free summer camp held at Camp Murray. Governor Evans had announced earlier in the spring that the National Guard facility would be made available for 3000 Tacoma-area youngsters age 7-21 to attend a free summer camp. Next to Governor Evans is believed to be Paul Tanaka, the camp's director. The governor also took time to meet the camp's youngsters and put them at ease by telling them of his small sons' own camping adventures - in the back yard of the governor's mansion using their dad's tent.
