M . 17 HOLD ON, GAL! ! DEAR ABBY: My husband has ; had this other woman for over; four years. They came to me and i begged me for a divorce, saying ; they loved each oilier. I said. -That's just too bad because I have six kids who need a father." j 1 am in no shape to start hunting myself up another man and, be-' sides, 1 got married once and ! that's enough for me. I don't both- j er him and he doesn't bother me. but I hate to see him mooning j around the house like a sick calf. What does a woman do when she finds herself in this fix? 1 NO HAPPINESS ! DEAR NO: She hangs on as I you're doing. Soma man 9 tired : of the chese and comt to reeliie ; that there's n plaea likt noma. ! Othert mid professional help. If your husband doesn't "coma to" of ! his own accord and conscience, seek help from a marriaga coun selor or your minister. ( DEAR ABBY: You advised 'FRUSTRATED" that any money a wife earns is HERS. In some states, the earnings of a wife, un less provided otherwise by a pre nuptial agreement, fall into the community property existing be tween husband ans wife. Further more, the husband as head and master of the community has the exclusive administration of the wife's earnings. Respectfully, E. K. L. (New Orleans) DEAR MR. L.: "FRUSTRAT ED" took a job as substitute teach er to earn money for "axtrai." Her husband, she stated, was a professional man and an adequate provider. She worked in order to buy herself a mink stole, which her husband considered a "frivolity." I still say that morally, under the Thresher Probe Reveals Valves Were Not Improperly Installed PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (UPI)-Al! of the submarine Thresher's 5,000 valvei were installed properly pri or to the vessel's ill-fated voyage, a naval officer said Tuesday. Capt. John D. Guerry, produc tion officer at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard where the Thresher was built and overhauled, told a news conference none of the valves was installed backwards. Guerry'j statement was designed to clarify previous testimony be fore a naval court of inquiry in dicating that some of the valves on the submarine that sank with a loss of 129 men might have been faulty. "There are 5,000 opportunities to put a valve in backwards. . .but following exhaustive tests none was backwards when the ship sailed," Guerry said. Guerry said valves sometimes are deliberately installed in re verse for certain tests, generally at dockside. But by the time the Thresher put to sea four weeks ago, he laid, all the valves were checked gut and found to be in proper orking order. Guerry said there was "room for improvement" in the time taken to overhaul the Thresher before its final voyage. He said the overhaul originally was scheduled to last 6Vi months but the work aetually consumed g'i months. Several witnesses had testified before the naval investigating board that work on the Thresher had been "sloppy" and that cer- Pre-School Tea Slated Friday At Huerest Gym Pre-school children of the Hu erest district, together with their parents, are invited to a tea Fri day from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. in the Huerest School gymnasium.

And A Familiar Trusted Label Hold On, Gal! 1 By ABIGAIL VANBUREN circumstances, ttw wife is entitled to spend her earnings as she wish- j es. I was merely settling family ! argument. If she had wanted le-! gal advice, she would have gone j to a lawyer. DEAR ABBY: I have gone to j the same beauty operator for sev-' eral years. Lately every time I j arrive for my appointment, my operator tells me she is running about an hour late. She says it is because the patrons bet'or me have I come late. 1 finally got tired of it j and quit her. My husband doesn't j like the way my new operator does I my hair and he wants me lo go I back to the old one. It's a matter of principle with me. Am I right or 1 is mv husband? Would you goi back? , j ASH BLONDE DEAR ASH: When a customer is late for an appointment, SHE is the one who should be kept wait ing. Even if her tardiness was un avoidable, it is not fair to throw everyone else off schedule. I think you are right. Shop around for an other operator. And reward ,t he prompt ones with your patronage.

The court convened behind closed doors today to study the secret design of Thresher. The Navy in Washington dis closed Monday that it was consid ering a plan to take an old sub marine out of mothballs and to sink her in the same area where the Thresher was lost. By tracing its descent with so nar, officials hoped it would give area would do with a sub similar in size to the lost craft. "Such a proposal is under study," a Navy spokesman said. "No details are available at this time." Scaling Amendment Approved By BLM PORTLAND (L'PI) An amend ment permitting third party scal ing of salvage timber when con ventional methods are inadequate was endorsed Monday by the Bu reau of Land Management's Ad visory Board for Oregon and Cal ifornia (O & C) Grant Lands. The amendment has been ap rpved bv Interior Secretary Stew art Udall. It will give the Bureau of Land Management authority to bring in independent scaling bureaus to measure timber for log sales when cruising or scaling by BLM sealers is not adequate. Joe W. McCracken, executive vice president of West Forest In dustries Association, said timber buyers doubt the BLM can get all the timber blown down in the Co lumbus Day storm measured in the next few months. The third party provision will be used only in Oregon, accord ing to Slate BLM Director Rus sell Getty. The two independent log scaling bureaus in the state are Columbia River Grading and Log Scaling Bureau and Southern Oregon Log Scaling and Grading Bureau. "i MsTTft-i' SECOND SECTION Austrian Rescues Relatives In Daring West Berlin Dash BERLIN (L'PI) An Austrian with the reflexes of a road racer rescued his German wife and her mother from Communist-held East Berlin in a daring dash to free- j dom before dawn Sunday, West j Berlin police said Tuesday. The Austrian whipped a low-1 slung sports car through a road block on the American-sector bor-1 der and under the steel-barrier pole, clearing it with only a couple of inches to spare. Sleepy Communist guards, taken by surprise, made no effort to stop I the speeding car. j The daring driver was Heinz Meixner, 20, an Austrian mechan ic who has been working for a West Berlin firm since February, 1962. the Austrian consul here said. He drove into East Berlin sometime Saturday, West Berlin police said, to visit his wife and her mother. East Germ, ns caught behind the Communist anti re fugee wall. After midnight, the two women climbed into the little British built, sports car and crouched in the scant concealment available. He drove to the crossing point for foreigners, opposite the U.S. Army's Checkpoint Charlie, which is open all night. Crossing points for West Germans close at midnight. WEDNESDAY, MAY 8, 1963 The Austrian showed his pass port to a guard, who raised the inner barrier pole. Instead of halting at the pass port and current control shed, the Austrian kept driving into a zig zag course around a series of 30 inch high concrete blocks. He then zipped past the control hut and through a narrow gap in a cement wall 7 feet high and 4 feet thick. The driver flicked down his windshield, crouched and drove the little car under the outer bar rier pole and across the white painted border line into West Ber lin. West Berlin police reported that since the escape, the East German guards have been parking a truck across the gap in the thick wall at night.
