It’s Almost Spring
In Spring, a young man’s fan
cy lightly turns to thoughts of
young women. And young wom
en? They have their eyes on the
fellow with the spring in his step
and the well-groomed, well
dressed look'

phase of dressing) — especially

Today, the most dapper dress

cluding a smooth shave and neat
hair comb) in a fraction of the
time—if they shun the lazy urge,
so often a complication of Spring
fever.
The casual (not careless) look
is guaranteed to turn milady’s
head this Spring—a far cry from
the days when the faddish lad
had to be decked out in silk stock

brocade coat — no matter what
the season.
What will the well-dressed

pride in his garb and grooming.

MRS. KENNEDY RETURNS
FROM EVENTFUL TOUR
WASHINGTON W — Mrs. John
F. Kennedy says her journey
through the storied lands of India
and Pakistan was fascinating and
valuable — but she’d rather go
abroad with her husband next time.
President Kennedy, proud and
beaming, welcomed the First Lady
home last night from her 16,000
mile, semi-official tour. When the
family plane, “Caroline,” taxied to
a halt at Washington National Air
port, Kennedy hurried up the ramp
to greet his wife inside.
A few minutes later, the smiling
First Lady emerged. An airport
crowd of about 200 applauded as
Mrs. Kennedy, wearing a black
suit, walked down the stairs. The
President followed, hat in hand.
As she winged homeward from
London aboard a commercial jet
airliner, Mrs. Kennedy said the
kindness shown her abroad “was
because I was the wife of the Pres
ident—so the people were showing
this affection for him and he should
have been there to receive it.”
It was, Mrs, Kennedy said, “the
most fascinating experience imagin
able.” But she said it didn’t seem
natural to make such a trip with
out the President. And she added
she belongs at home with her
family.
Socrates, often called the wisest
man who ever lived, long ago saw
the danger of trying to legislate
equality between the sexes, said
“Once made equal to man, wom
an becomes his superior.”

Search Plane
Finds Abandoned
Russian Ice Island
FAIRBANKS W — A search
plane from the Arctic Research
Laboratory at Barrow has located
what is apparently an abandoned
Russian ice island research station
in the Arctic Ocean.
Max Brewer, director of the
laboratory, reported Wednesday
that the strange station “was not
organized in the normal layout used
by the United States Arctic re
search stations, and the presump
tion is that it is Russian.”
The station, located on a vast
piece of floe ice approximately two
miles square, was sighted Satur
day morning by the same search
plane which re-located the R4D
from the laboratory which crashed
last November.
The search plane, piloted by ART.
chief pilot Robert Fisher, was fly
ing the first search flight of the
spring, when enough light has re
turned to the Arctic to allow long
flights, when the ice island was
sighted.
Brewer said the strange station
was located around 200 miles
southeast of Arlis II, which was
pinpointed at 80 degrees, 3 minutes
north, 170 degrees, 33 minutes east.
A total of 14 buildings are
located on the presumed Russian
station, 13 on the main floe and
one on a smaller floe off to its
side.
Brewer said that the search flight
sighted no smoke, footprints, or
any other signs of human habita
tion on the floating research sta
tion.
No estimate of the number of
people who had been on the island
was available, Brewer said, as the
figure would depend on what sort I
of research project was going on
at the site. It was not known when
the island had been abandoned.
Brewer said there were no pre
sent plans to land on the abandoned
ice floe and examine the buildings
and equipment left there.
In past years, many ice island
floating research stations have been
set up in the Arctic Ocean by both
the United States and the Soviet
Union. Several have been aband
oned at various times, Brewer ex
plained, and it is probably such a
station which was located on Sat
urday.
Special Film to Be Shown
A film of special interest to per
sons considering retirement for
their families will be shown at the
Community Methodist Church on
Sunday evening at 7:30.
It is called “Being at Home” and
is filmed at Kingsley Manor in
