As We Live
$fj ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D.
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.

Former Boy Scout, On Byrd Trip
26 Years Ago, Plans for Return
To Antarctic With Navy Journey
Back Sf at rs:G f fee Gef s Conference Table
By WARREN DUFFEE
United Press Correspondent
Denver (U.R) Backstairs at
the Summer White House?.
Any president receives a lot
of presents, but one anonymous
donor especially won President
Eisenhower's fancy with a recent
gift.: '
The unidentified well-wisher
sent Mr: Eisenhower the antique
conference table, chairs and rug
the Chief Executive - used t in
England when he was planning
the World War II invasions of
Europe. '
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

Crump's Organization
Faces Survival Fight
Memphis, Tenn. (U.R) The
political organization created by
the late E. H. Crump today laced
its first all-out fight for survival
since Crump became undisputed
political master of Memphis.-
Former Mayor Watkms Over

Trainship Company, a subsid
iary of Alaska Steamship, has
been granted approval in prin
cipal to construct a ship to carry
loaded rail cars.
Madrid (U.R) ,U. S. Reg.
Victor Anfuso (D-N.Y.) has pre
dieted that the United States
would support Spanish member
ship in NATO if the question
arises.
selected from among 60,000 can
didates to represent the Boy
Scouts at Little America,' Siple
has become one of the world's
greatest authorities on the polar
regions. 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."
