Sounds,
punching
OK, huh? Beats
time clock or put
ting in the daily 8to-5 routine
at the office.
Darlene Hard of Long Beach,
national women's champion,
agrees and she wouldn't have
missed it for anything. After
nearly a decade as one of the
world's best and most colorful
performers, the exuberant 26-
year-old blonde says sho is Hear
ing the end of the tennis trail.
"This will bo my last year of
International competition," she
says.
Seeks Crown
Darlene is in Europe now for
Wightman Cup matches and
tournaments leading up to Wim
bledon in England, where, on
Monday, she will begin her
sixth quest for the elusive sin
gles crown in the world's No. 1
tournament.
In her last three appearances
at Wimbledon in 1057, 1059
and lOliO the Long Beach miss
has shared in all six doubles
championships. She has won the
women's with Althea Gibson,
Jeanne Arth and Maria Bucno,
and the mixed with Mcrbyn
Rose and Rod Laver (twice).
It is not surprising that Dar
lene has gained so much success
in doubles. It is her strong
point.
"Singles and doubles are two
different games. I much prefer
plarng doubles and am better
at it," she says.
Darlene is a native Califor
nian. Her mother is an avid
tennis player and taught the
game to her daughter.
Darlene was given a racket at
4 and entered her first tourna
ment at 13 the Girls' 13 event
in the Southern California Jun
iors (she won it). At 18 she was
runner-up to Barbara Breit in
the National Juniors, won the
doubles with Miss Breit, and
was a semi-finalist in women's
singles at Forrest Hills.
Attends College
She never has had to pay for
a lesson, but at 19 she did re
ceive some instructions from
Alice Marble, who had her
change her forehand from
Continental grip to a modified
Eastern grip. (She uses the Con
tinental for all other shots.)
Darlene played night softball
in a girls' league for three years
while going to high school.
She also worked as a waitress
and was a good student, finish
ing ninth in her graduation
class of 430 at Montcbcllo High
School.
She has taken enough time
off from the tournament trail
to complete 2V4 years at Pomo
na College.
On hitting the big-time tennis
scene as a teen-ager Darlene de
lighted the spectators with her
vigorous play, her happy-go-lucky
attitude and her sparkling
court personality.
The buoyant blonde is a bit of
a clown at times, and unlike
many competitors, often gives
the appearance of actually en
joying herself during a match.
Sho has one of the most gen
uinely pleasant smiles you'll see
anywhere, and she smiles in de
feat as well as victory.
After Wimbledon, Darlene is
scheduled to return to Long
Beach for a rest. She'll play in
a few Eastern meets leading up
to the National Doubles at
Chestnut Hill, Mass., and the
National Singles at Forest Hills,
N. Y., both starting in August.

Anthropologist Trades Sheath Dresses for Khakis
By GAY PAULEY
Of (he United Press International
NEW YORK (UPD Mention
woman anthropologist and the
mind usually imagines a sturdy,
tailored type digging in the
ruins of an ancient civilization.
Then comes along Dr. Mariam
Slater to wreck that image.
Anthropologist Slater has red
brown hair, large brown eyes
and the figure of the fashion
model which she once was.
She's five feet, six inches bare
foot and weighs 115 pounds.
A former reporter and some
times actress and short story
writer, Dr. Slater is an in
structor in anthropology at
Queens College of the City Uni
versity of New York.
On June 30, the 39-year-old
anthropologist will shed her
city slicker shell complete with
"little nothing" sheath dresses
and head for Africa and 15
months in the bush country
where khaki pants', tent and
snakebite kit will be part of
standard equipment.
Purpose of the trip: to study
the customs of a tribe called the
Nyiha, which lives in an iso
lated area of the Nyasa Tang
anyika corridor in the south
eastern coastal area of Africa.
Have Little Knowledge
According to the anthropolo
gist, little first-hand knowledge
of the Nyiha exists in research
literature. The pioneering
studies were done by Dr. Mon
ica Wilson, whom Dr. Slater
plans to visit at the University
of Capetown.
She docs know that the tribe,
believed to number about 60,
000, is semi-nomadic, and that
its members are cultivators who
depend on millet and on milk
from their cattle as their food
staples.
Various groups of Nyiha, Dr.
Slater said, follow their herds
within a 70-mile radius of the
village of Myeba, a territory
ranging from the cold mountain
ranges to the stifling Lakeshore
plains of southwestern Tangan
yika. She feels that because isola
tion has preserved the tribe
from cultural changes the out
side world knows of, it offers
an excellent "laboratory" for
study of the processes of social
change.
Dr. Slater, a native of Wash
ington, D.C., is the daughter of
a physician and research spec
ialist in oxygen therapy. Her
parents now are retired and
live in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
The anthropologist was grad
uated from Bryn Rlawr College,
Bryn Mawr, Pa., in 1944 and
came to New York planning to
go on the stage. She worked as
a reporter for Life magazine for
a while, for the Conover model
ing agency, did some short
stories and finally decided that
"if I were going to do any
serious writing it needed more
studying of people."
Studies Anthropology
"That," she said in an inter
view at her modcrnistically fur
nished apartment in the fash
ionable Washington Square area
of New York, "is one way of
saying that I wasn't very good
at what I'd already attempted."
She enrolled in Columbia
University's Anthropology De
partment where one of her in-

Margaret Mead. She researched
for her doctor's dissertation by
living for five months with
native peoples of northeast
Martinique, the French colonial
island in the Caribbean. Since
1958 she has been on the
Queens College staff.
She'll fly to Mombasa where
she will line up her crew a
ihouseboy and two interpreters,
one to translate the complicated
Nyiha dialect into Swahill and
the other to translate Swahill
into English. ,
Dr. Slater said the trip had
been in the "thinking stage for
more than a year," but she

There have never been any soup mixes like these before.
We could go to great lengths about the new Frcezc-Drying
method that keeps more natural flavor in our chicken, beef
and mushrooms . . , about the flavor-blending skills of the
Campbell Soup Chefs . . . the way we make our chicken soups
with real chicken stock . . . and about the special new con
tainer that keeps all our soups fresh and full of flavor.
But we'd rather let them speak for themselves.
That's why we say, buy a 2-can carton of any one kind,
mail the entire carton along with your name and address
and the price you paid for it to: New Soup Mix. Box 16-C.
