Will Make Dinner El B (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) says, ' because, unequipped an I wiu, I could think of no way to cross that slippery ridge. Then I notice,! a jut ting rock, about a foot In diameter, sticking out just at the base ot the Peak. I figured that if I reached that rock. I could reach the solid rock and complete the climb. In order to do thia, took a short run and ccrambled acrwa the icy ridge, my momentum taking me most of the way. 'As I neared the Jutting rock, 1 threw myself headlong at it, wrapping my arras around it and allowing my feet to awing around on the Icy slope to the ftolid footing on the peak. The rest of the climb waa simple." But to get back! Henderson .ays he at first did not think of tbia fea ture, but as he looked back at the ridge, the realization suddenly came to him that he could not repeat the 8ame performance aa there waa noth Ing for bim to hang onto even if he could acrambje back across the Ice ridge. "I have often thought what an as inine thing I had done in attempting that climb alone, even aa I did aa I surveyed the situation and tried to think of a way to croas that pesky ridge," chuckles tho octogennrian bot anist. However, since he could not stay on top of the mountain, Henderson fi nally made an attempt to crosa the ice, but had barely started when he alipped and started eliding down the west ide of the mountain, toward cer tain death if he failed to atop. Digging in with finger and toes, he later dis covered hia finger tlpa had been bruia ed and mutilated in trying to atop his slide he still waa unable to atop, but after a abort elide, did come to a stop. And what do you suppose cauaed me to stop? It waa snow which gath ered under the front of my veat aa I olid downward, finally acting aa a Brake and halting what I bad begun to believe waa my last slide." Prof. Henderson does not know ex actly how long it took him to edge hia way across the icy elope, crawling slowly along, inch by inch, using a Pitifully inadequate botanical pick to aid hia progress. He remember be left the top of the mountain at 1 clock, and reached the base of the mountain chortly after 8 o'clock that evening and he fblnka most of thia time was apent getting acroaa that 50-foot icy slope. 10 lis endedthe first ascent of the -North sister, made from the north side which rarely haa been climbed since. Prouty, after whom the main pin nacle of the mountain waa named, made the climb from the southwest lope Aug. 7, 1010, being the first to reach the- highest peak of the moun tain. In talking with Henderson after ward. Prouty and others of his party oaed their Data" to the man who had made tho climb from the north side. While he had had nn ejrtrcmelv hard time on the Icy ridge, he would have lind little trouble had he been proper- enuippeii, Henderson pointed out. nnd after Prouty had scaled the moun tain ho termed it the "worst climb he had ever had." Aa a reault, think ing both he and Prouty had made the ascent from the aame angle, Hender son at first believed some radical changea must have ocenred in the mountain between the time he climb ed it in 3881 and the time Proutv mde the nxcent in 3010. But he later discovered that eince they had been taiaing about two different routes, Tonight fs a Banquet ! there probably was no difference, goo- logically (peaking, In the mountain during the paat 50 yeara. A etudy of detailed picture, of the route, made by Ray Sims, leader of the Obsidians who climbed the peak from the north side recently, bore out thai theory, Prof. Henderson said.

The county court at a meeting Tuesday with John Hunzicker, the architect, and ft. H. Townsend, HEItA engineer, agreed to submit the matter to E. J.
