Newspaper Page TextTHE REGIS T E B G U A R D, EUGENE. OREGON Page Tea Girl Explorer Extends Women's World To Sea, Jungle Depths By HELEN WELSHIMER (NEA Berries Staff Correspondent) NEW YORK, Julj 13. Whet Gloria Hollwter, the yellow-haired girl who has been nearer the floor of til ocean than any other living woman, came back not long ago from the zoological expedition ahe headed to BritUh Guiana, South America, ahe announced that nothing exciting had happened. That's all In the way that you look at it, though. Miaa Hollister, bred to adventure, nsed to have her play matea lower her to the bottom of a brook, a rope tied around her waist, and a glass tube for breathing attach ed to her nose. Ton and I were probably playing tag and jumping rope. Traveling over hundreds of milea of jungle lome of it never before seen by a whits man and most of it by only a few white men in a one-motor plane, .would cause most of us a bad minute. If the engine broke "But it didn't!" says the famous zoologist who, though still in her twenties, la a member of the New Tork Zoological society. "The rainy aeason began early tbia year ao we hurried our studies in order to aave several thousands of feet of film and photographs from being ruined by rain and dampness. We studied and photo graphed birds, flowers, animals and Indians. Since we could see only a abort distance ahead of us when trav eling In the jungle on foot, I found reconnaisance by an airplane invalu able in gaining a general knowledge and picture of the area in which we concentrated our studies and made our collections," Shipwrecked In the Jungle Once, when the party of 20 ,were traveling by boat on a lonely river, they discovered, on wakening in the morning, that their boat had been sunk by the awollen torrent and heavy raina in the night. Two of the boys in the party, ahooting at a target to pass the time, chose something green as their object It turned out to be part of the sail, ao the boat which they had thought bad drifted away was dug up, dried and used. . ' Miss Bollister, whose expedition waa conducted under the auspices of the New York Zoological society, is heartily in favor of ber profession as a woman's work. "Zoology la an ex cellent field for girls, especially the laboratory side," she says. "Girls are innately constructive; they don't mind detail, repetition, a constant grind, all characteristics that are necessary for competent - zoologists. The average bey grows tired and is apt to want to run off to awim or see a ball game before the last 099th minnow in the net la counted. Zoologists welcome young men and young women alike to their field and help them. They are only too willing to share their knowl edge and experience with the enthus iastic junior." Began Submarine Study at 10 Ever Blnce 1023 Miss Hollister hue been a member of the staff of Dr, William Beetle who heads the depart1 ment of tropical research at the New York Zoological society. For the first time, this summer, the Bermuda ocesnographic study la working In the headquarters laboratory at the New York Zoological park, instead of go ing to Bermuda where deep sea-diving has been one of toe main orders oi the dsy. Miss Hollister began preparing for her work when she was 10 years old. "Unconsciously preparing," ahe says. There was a little river called the Mahwehm which roved through the family lawn, at Buffern, New York. ? 9 1 x-y- J Gloria HollUter with one of the rare prizes, a golden anteater. cap tured on her last expedition. It was here that she explored the under-water world. Her breathing tube wouldn't stay above water, though, and companions pulled ber up just in time. Next time ahe ex perimented with an oil can as a div ing helmet but her playmates couldn't estimate how long her air supply would last. For quieter pastimes, Bhe studied birds and bugs in the hills surrounding the estate. First Expedition Scores Success The young scientist specialized in zoology at Connecticut college, where she got her degree, and at Columbia university where ahe later took her Master's. At Dr. Beefoe's suggestion she acted a zoological guide on a jungle exedition to British Guiana with Mrs. 8. Rogers Mitchell. ., Hun dreds of photographs, 20 live animals including a capybara a very large species of guinea pig and the first live guacbaro bird every brought to any coo and exhibited alive, were ac complishments of the expedition. That was in 1920. Then, for two years, she served as laboratory technician under Dr. Alexis Carrel at the Rockefeller In atltute. In 1028 there was a vacancy in Dr. Becbe s department. She bad been promised the first opening and was promptly installed as research as sociate. Now she walked along the floor of the sea, 40 feet below the water, and discovered that maritime life was much more involved than she had judged when she descended the backyard river. Narrow Escape Under Water Air hoses and copper helmets were. E Tl New Deal Leaders Plugging Holes In Party Fences To Stop Bolting; Opposition Still Strong In Spots OSSININO, N. T., July 13. W) Literally paralyzed and almost speech less from fear, Mrs. Mary Frances Crcighton, 30, mother of two, tossed on a cot in Sing Bing'o sweltering death house tonight as prison officisls mode arrangements to carry her bodily to the electric chair Thursday nigbt. Mrs. Creigliton was sentenced to die with Everett Applegate for the poison murder of Applegatc's ponder ous wife, Ada last October. Attendants disclosed that physicians had satisfied themselves, by thrusting pins into Mrs. Creighton's legs, that she wss not shamming. The pin pricks brought no resction whatever, they said. Mrs. Crghton's jonly remaining hope of reprieve lay with Gov. Her bert Lehman. Last week a petition for e new trial by Mrs. Creighton was ruled out It was sought becnuso Mrs. Creighton's 16-year-old daughter, Ruth, had writ ten a letter saying that Applegate had told her be alone was going to poison Mrs. Appbgate. Since Mrs. Creightcn was brought to the death house five months and a half ago. her hair ban turned white and her limbs been stiffened by sciatic pains which prison doctors said were induced by nervous fenr. Her Tocal cords also are benumbed. used constantly at that time. In 1930 the Bathysphere was introduced, a two-ton steel sphere accommodating two people, who watch sea-life through windows. Dr. Beehe let his young assistant go down for the first time as a birthday present. She begged to be allowed to go 100 feet lower than was prearranged, in order to see sea life and fish. At that, she set the woman's record for deep sea-diving, a record she holds and has three times bettered. ... "Once a little excitement happen ed," she confesses. "I had climbed down a rope ladder, in the copper hel met, to a depth of 30 to 40 feet in wa ter with big fish and sharks. This is what we like plenty of fish to ob serve. Nothing ever happens. I just sit on the ladder or walk to a nearby reef. On this day, though, the ladder disappeared and I had to climb up the air tube. There was another day when I caught the ladder just in time. But I caught1 it!" Miss Hollister has made some sig nificant contributions to maritime science. She perfected the old Ger man formula by which the body of an animal is mnde transparent, adapting it especially for fish. The skeleton is stained a bright red, permitting the study of the bones without. dissection. She hns prepared more than 8,000 specimens of fish in this way for skeleton study. It's all quite mudane, though. Any' thing is even steeple climbing nnd deep sea-diving when you stnrt at ten!

Western Auto Adds New Tire to Heavy Duty Line Locally Announcing the introduction of an entirely new tire in its famous Wes tern Giant double duty line, the Wes tern Auto Supply company now offers owners of the newer cara a tire that operates silently and affords safe trac tion at all times, with modern comfort and . style. . . "The research laboratories where our Urea are designed are alwaye alert for new ways of increasing tire aatif faction," asserts Lawrence Urey, man ager of the Eugene store. "From the many testa continually being made there, it was found that the large fenders which enhance the atream lined appearance of the new cara greatly amplified the slightest sound made by ordinary tires. Thla causes a disturbing noise very audible inside the car, "The answer to this and other tire problema that new car developments have presented Is the Introduction of tho new Western Giant double duty tire.
