o Crews at 'Operation Deepfreeze' Anxiously Wait Hatching of Eggs Washington (U.R) Navy men of the "Operation Deep freeze" expedition to the South Pole region are sweating out an historic blessed event. Sometime this week end. if all goes well, the first chicken ever hatched within the Antarc tic Circle will peck its way through an eggshell in an im provised incubator at Little America. If the Navy's pioneering poul-try-culturists are lucky and they've been incredibly lucky so far there may even be three or four "real cool chicks" vouches for the truth of the fol lowing account: Last month, the expedition's Globemaster transport planes re turned to Antarctica from New Zealand, where they had been sent some weeks earlier to await repairs to landing strips. The planes brought with them ' a huge supply of fresh produce, including fruits, vegetables, and several crates of eges which had been purchased in New Zealand stores. No special protection was giv en to the eggs on the 3,000-mile flight from New Zealand to the at Little America by next Mon- main expedition base at McMur- dav "These," says Lt. Robert J. Adams of Memphis, Tenn., the dental officer who is presiding over the incubator, "will be fab O ulous fowl. 'When you consider what the eggs have been through, you al most expect the chicks to hatch wearing earmuffs and muk luks."

Zollar do Sound. They were exposed to the vibration of the huge transport planes and to the ex treme cold of 20,000-foot alti tudes. At McMurdo Sound, the eggs were unloaded in sub - zero weather. Four dozen were dropped by parachute to the ad vanced outpost at the South Pole. Not a shell was cracked. Several dozen were placed aboard a Navy ski plane which flew them to Little America on Feb. 17. Long Chance It was here that Lt. Adams came into the picture.

The ending of the conferences is timed this way: When Mr. Eisenhower first took office, he let it be known that he did not want to devote more than 30 minutes to a question-and-an- swer session with reporters. More than that, he thought, would be taking too large a chunk of time out of his morn ing schedule.

Morton Executor Skyrman Ouellette Ac Hei&el Attorneys for E slate Mr. Eisenhower has not been getting in much golf lately. Ac cordingly, he may need some tune-up sessions before going to Bermuda to meet the British Prime Minister, Harold Mac millan. British sources report that Macmillan plans to bring along his golf clubs, which should de light the President. In 1953 at Bermuda, neither of Mr. Eisen hower's conferees Prime Min ister Sir Winston Churchill nor French Premier Joseph Laniel played golf. The President and Macmillan will be staying at Bermuda's Mid-ocean Club, which is literal ly surrounded by a golf course. Suice they'll both have their golf sticks along, a game seems inevitable.

Y., to let him find out if any of the eggs were fertile. Banasiak finally released six of the precious eggs. Adams placed the eggs in a dental in cubator used for research on oral flora, and set the temperature at 100 degrees fahrenheit. "Eight days later, on Feb. 25," radioed Chaplain Zollar, "Dr. Adams with baited breath candled the eggs. He was elated to find two positive embryos and two possibles." "The dental laboratory is now the crossroads of Little Ameri ca," the chaplain reported. "Everyone wants to see the eggs. Strict visiting hours have been set up. Unrest is tremen dous. There is much speculation among all hands as to sex, -color, breed and birthdate of our chicks." The last word from Little America was that the first chick is expected to hatch tomorrow or Sunday. Navy men here are standing by for further news from the hatchery at the bottom of the world. appointments is based on a 30- mmute press conference.
