(International Soundphoto) DEW Line Camps Dot Northern Wasteland By CHARLES CORDDRY Uniied Press Correspondent Victoria Island (U.R) The giant Globemaster plane picks its way down through the white ness and rolls smoothly to a stop on a frozen runway. Wind blown snow hides the horizon and makes it hard to tell where Hubbard Brothers to Observe 72nd Year Hubbard Brothers Hardware company, 335 East Main st., will begin a spring sale Thursday to commemorate its 72nd anniversary. The firm was started as a farm implement business in the spring of 1884 in Jacksonville by Fort Hubbard. Later, the store was taken over by his son, Asahel Hubbard, father of the present owners, Chester and Roland Hub bard. In the 1920's a hardware de partment was added to the busi ness and in 1936 the farm imple ment department was moved out. Hubbard Brothers has been in its present location since 1898. The establishment's only major change in recent years was the addition of a downstairs house ware'section in 1951. The anniversary sale will con tinue through Wednesday, April 25.

Camp Materializes A mile or so away by snow mobile the DEW Line construc tion camp materializes, quonsets with smoke puffing from over heated interiors, shacks fashion ed from packing crates, a plastic work tent slung over steel-pipe frame. On a nearby rise stand a prefabricated permanent struc tures where civilians manning the far northern radar warning line will live and work. This camp is larger than most but otherwise typical of dozens that stretch for 3000 miles across the continent's Arctic rim where the Distant Early Warning Line is being strung to give four to six hours notice of Russian jejt bomber attack. Randolph B. Wills, Fort Worth, Tex., a Western Electric Co. DEW Line construction in spector, takes you on a tour of this station on Victoria Island, which is shielded from the Arctic Ocean to the west by Banks Island. Efficiency Impaired You learn that man's work ing efficiency is impaired in the Arctic by subzero cold, occasion al 100 mile an hour winds, eye searing sun making heavy gog gles advisable, burdensome weights of clothing. This land is' for hardy, stable characters trained to do many tasks, not the least of which is plain sur viving. You don't beat the Arc tic; you learn to live with it as the Canadian Mounted Police, trappers and missionaries have done.
