The Hemingway party arrived
from a 125-mile motor trip over
jungle and mountain roads after
spending the night near the Albert
Nile, tributary of the Victoria Nile
River.
After the second crackup, all
they had to worry about was the
herds of elephants and other uni
dentified wild beasts which howled
around them and the swarms of
mosquitoes from the river. A
camp fire kept the beasts and in
sects at bay.
"I feel wonderful," Hemingway
said as he arrived, "but my wife
has to rest as she has two cracked
ribs.
No Heroisim
"There has been no heroism, no
hardship, no lack of direction at
any time.
Coming from m man who has
described death on Italy's World
War I battlefields, in the moun
tains of civil war Spain and in. the
Chicago gang wars, that appeared
to be a conservative account of
his latest real life adventure.
The first crackup occurred Sat
urday when the Hemingways were
flying in a chartered sightseeing
plane near Murchison Falls, noted
Uganda beauty spot.
Dived to Miss Birds
Hemingway said the trouble de
veloped when the sightseeing plane
dived to avoid a flight of ibises
black and white birds big enough
to smash the pilot's window. '
The party had to choose between
landing on a sandspit in the river
where several crocodiles lay bask
ing or on an elephant track'
through the thick scrub growth,
and they chose the scrub. They
spent the night around the camp-
fire surrounded by an elephant
herd attracted by my wife s snoring."
A tourist launch took the Hem
ingways and their pilot, Roy
March, from the falls 60 miles to
Butiaba.
Flames Break Out
The second crackup came there
when another plane failed to nego
tiate a takeoff. Hemingway said
all aboard had braced themselves
for the shock. One wing broke into
flames touched off by the engine.
Hemingway opened the door with
his head and shoulder and suffered
cuts on the head and slight burns,
His wife and the other occupants
left through the front of the plane
and were not burned
Mrs. Hemingway's ribs ap
parently were cracked when the
plane swerved off the runway and
into a plantation before catching
fire.
Hemingway and his - wife, the
former Mary Welsh, well-known
magazine correspondent, are mak
ing a five-month safari through
East Africa.
Hemingway was clutching a
bunch of bananas and a bottle of
gin as he ' and his wife climbed
painfully from their automobile
here. The novelist's shirt was torn,
his arm was swollen, and there
was a big patch of adhesive tape
on his head.
Asked about his luck, he said:
"I think she is running very
good."

Winter lashed with vengeance at
the Pacific Northwest Monday
from Canada to Oregon and from
the Pacific to the Rockies.
These were the top develop
ments:
l; About half of the Columbia
River town of St. Helens, Ore.,
was i without water after a land
slide; ripped out-a 100-foot section
of water line.
1 Eight families at Enterprise,
in Eastern Washington, were driv
en i from their homes by waters
of the lower Yakima river backed
up by a massive ice jam.
31 ; The Grays Harbor area, of
Southwest Washington was cov
ered; by a 10 to 25-inch blanket
of wet snow which toppled com
munications lines.
4. j British Columbia and the
Prairie provinces battled snow
drifts as one of the worst cold
waves. in years kept the mercury
below zero in the interior for near
ly two weeks.
New! Slides '
Workers trying to repair the SL
Helens water line were hampered
by! new slides in the same gen
eral; area, five miles west of the
town. Heavy rains and snow were
blamed.
William Mutton. St. Helens
mayor, said about half of the torn-
out line had been replaced. But
he said it was anybody's guess
when all St. Helens residents
would have city 'water again.
The Yakima River ice jam which
sent water to as high as 8 'to 10
inches in houses at Enterprise was
seven miles long. It was lodged
against a railroad bridge south
of; Richland, but the bridge was
not believed to be in danger.
It I was the second time that an
ice ;jam had forced families to
move from their homes in the
little town of 400 residents two
miles west of Richland. Six fam
ilies: were evacuated from their
himes last Friday.
Cities Cut Off
The Grays Harbor storm cut
both Aberdeen and Hoquiam on
from telephone service t6 Olym
piaJ The storm dumped up to 25
inches of snow at high spots
around the two cities.
Pacific County, bordered by the
Columbia on the south and the
Pacific on the west, was "blacked
out' for nearly an hour and one-
half; Monday when power lines
went down before an onslaught of
heavy, wet snow and high winds.
j Blizzard conditions existed along
the shores of Hood Canal, on the
Kitsap Peninsula and along Puget
Sound to the Canadian border.
i There was one foot of snow
throughout central Kitsap County,
three inches at Olympia and 11
inches at both Bellingham and
Everett. There were snow flurries
at Seattle, but the white stuff
melted almost as soon as it hit
the ground.
Phone Lines Down
I But Grays Harbor was the hard
est j hit. The storm knocked out
50 telephone lines between Aber-deeh-Hoquiam
and Olympia and
80 between the two Grays Harbor
cities and Westport.
I Traffic moved slowly through
the cities. An airline cancelled its
morning flights to the Grays Har
bor j area. And railroad offices at
Aberdeen and Hoquiam were out
of I contact with their Olympia,
Centralia and Tacoma offices for
a time.
East of the Cascades, the tem
perature dipped to zero at Yakima
during the early morning hours
Monday and to 10 above at Spo
kane. It warmed up during the
day, with the readings in the high
twenties. Walla Walla's 40 was
highest for the day on the East
Side.

As a member of the FCC, Lee
will pass upon licenses for televi
sion, radio and other means of

that Lee,; who has had no experi

background to be "a fighter for
freedom of speech and the right
of dissent"

389 nominations made by the Pres
ident during the congressional re
cess, which began last August
Most of the nominations 1,330
were for , promotions in the mili
tary services.

Fred M. Seaton, former Republi
can congressman from Nebraska.

Morse made a brief speech
praising the selection. He told the
Senate! he had promised to say
something good about the Eisen
hower administration when he
found an opportunity to do so.
