Father Expects FUne TjJAilc For Her Hand Most courtesies pay big divi dends. Some, of course, pay big ger dividends than others. "(Q) "I am engaged to marry a young mart' whote parents are very good friends of my parents. Both of our parents e a m e from the other side when we were very young children and e are American citi zen now. In the country my parents came Dr. Hurlock from, it Is cus tomary for the young man to ask for the hand of the young lady he wants to marry. This is done before there is any an nouncement of the engagement. "When I spoke to my fiance about this, he thought it was a Joke. He said he would feel like a tool asking my zauier 101 mj hand ir? marriage when we were iready engaged and our parents know it. However, I think my parents will be upset if my fiance doesn't speak to them. I wanted to have a party to announce our enaaaement to our friends, but my mother has bet1 stalling about the date. Do you think it Is- necessary for a young man of todav. in America, to speak to his fiancee's parents as they do in the old countries? (Aklt is not necessary for a yourtman to ask the parents of his fiancee permission to marry their daughter, but it is certainly a courtesy, that any young man would do well to ob serve,It is especially important when the parents come from a country where this is an estab lished practice. 0 Your fiance need not ask your .parents for your hand, since they know you have already consent ed to rosrryhim. However, he could talk yur father in a man-to-mah way, telling him aftouf) his business prospects, what lje hopes to be able to do for (you after you are married, etc. jt would also be courteous of him to talk "to your mother, too, telling her how much he loyes her daughter and how happy you have made him. This, I can assure you, will make your mother happy. Because the two familiar are friends, formalities that might be necessary in the case of strangers or near-strangers can be dispensed with. After your fiance has talked to your par ents, then you can announce your engagement to your friends. It is always a good policy to have the families on both sides satisfied before outsiders are taken into yoursecret. (Copyright 1955. General Features Corp.)

' When It first arrived, the President had the whole array set up in his White House office at Washington. He made no se cret of his pride in it. But the space-consuming pay out has since been moved to a waiting room outside his office. The set likely will wind up in Washington (U.R) In 1929, boys all over the world were thrilled by the news that a 19-year-old Boy Scout, Paul A. Siple, would' accompany Adm. Richard E.

He has spent three win ters and seven summers in Ant arctica; has twice flown over the North Pole; has explored in Greenland, the Near East and Russia, and has acquired degrees in geology and climatology. To Set Up Three Bases o The big, friendly explorer, who stands six feet one inch tall and weighs 216 pounds, ex plained in an interview that the main purpose of the , "Deep Freeze" expedition is to prepare three bases that will beused by the scientists who will go to the Antarctic for thdnternation al Geophysical Year, 1957-58. One of the bases will be at the geographical South Pole, which is on a high mountainous plateau. ' Siple hopes to find enough level land near the Pole to pro vide an airplane landing runway to supply this base. Siple said fiiat despite the in creasingly frequent expeditions sent by the United States and other countries to the south polar regions, a vast area of the Ant arctic has never been explored. He estimated the unexplored area is roughly the size of the United States. The ice-capped continent cov e r s approximately 6,000,000 square miles, or the size of Eu rope and 'the United States com bined. Siple said it is the "high est continent in the world for average-1 a 1 1 i t u d e," averaging from 8000 feet in most regions. He said one of the most im pressive sights is Mount Erebus, a volcano that pours forth a continual stream of smoke from its snow-ringed peak. It may serve as a natural beacon for aircraft. . Asked about the possibility of big mineral discoveries in the Antarctic, Siple said: "There is lots of coal in Ant arctica and there are traces of many minerals, but ,thus far no bonanza of minerals has been found."1 e While no uranium deposits have been located, he said, uran ium is widespread on the face of the earth and "it is possible that uranium, might be found in Antarctica." o Filipinos on US Bases Gef Voting Privileges Manila (U.R) Justice Secre tary Pedro Tuason ruled Wednes day that Filipino citizens living in U.S.-controlled military bases have the right to . vote in both national and local elections.
