(EeiP P-Harriet shouldn't
break up her marriage.
Hr8 S. Anything would
oe Dener tnan tni.
Qgjll F. My sister is about
to break ua a marriage of ten
years and I feel she is making
a big mistake, especially in
view of the fact ftiat she has
four small children.
I know Harriet's husband is
a very hard man to get along
with. He gives her a terribly
small allowance every week
Shoelaces Saved
Life of Climber,
Rescuers Told
Alamosa, Colo (UPI) A
fisherman who spent five days
and nights without food and
water on a crumbling cliffside
ledge told his rescuers Thurs
day he wouy have plunged to
his death had he not used his
shoelaces to tie his legs around
a tree.
John Sanders, 35, of Albu
querque, NJI., was rescued
Wednesday by mountain-trained
soldiers. They scaled a
1,000 -foot escarpment and
then lowered themselves to
the five-foot-wide ledge where
Sanders clung.
Slipped on Rock
Sanders' ordeal began July
4 when he and a companion,
William E. Garver, 28, also
of Albuquerque, slipped on
loose rock while searching for
Garver's wallet and tumbled
down a mountainside.
Garver fell several hundred
f&t and was killed. His body
was recovered Tuesday.
But a slender pine tree
broke Sanders' fall. He con
tinued to slip but grabbed the
tree and tied himself to it
with the shoelaces.
Too Weak To Climb
Don Bewley, 22, an ei
ployee of a mountain lodge
15 miles fr$m the rugged
scene, reached Sanders Tues
day. Bewley was able to leave
the ledge and climb back but
Sanders was too weak from
lack of food and could not
follow him.
Mountain climbers from
Fort Carson, Colo., trained in
Alpine techniques, then were
called in. They reached Sand
ers and lowered him to the
Conejos river below in a
harness fashioned from nylon
rope.
Sanders was reported in
good condition except for fa
tigue and exposure.
AWOL LONG TIME
Edinburgh, Scotland (UPI)
Army Private Hughie A.
Smith was sentenced to nine
months in prison Wednesday
for being absent without leave
for eight of the 10 years he
has been in the service.
CRASH KILLS THREE
Dacca, Pakistan (UPI)
Authorities said today all
three crewmembers were
killed Wednesday when an In
dian Airlines cargo transport
crashed into a swamp near
Pupshi, 10 miles irom here.
and makes her account for
every penny. He is sometimes
harsh with the children and
is very subborn in general.
Nevertheless, he is a good man
and sincerely devoted to his
family.
If she leaves him, I know
Harriet can't go around look
ing for another husband with
four children on her hands.
Her children will grow up and
leave here and she'll be left
alone.
Harriet S. I've thought
about all the ; things Ceil
brings up and realize how
hard it's going to be, but I
feel almost anything would
be better than enduring what
I am now going through.
I haven't had a new dress in
four years. Every week there
is a big battle over the al
lowance. My husband checks
the prices of every item of
food in the house. He becomes
furious if I slip up on some
bargain that is offered or if
anything goes to waste.
I don't want to bring up the
children without a father in
the home, but I think no fa
ther would be better for them
than to have to witness these
weekly scenes. The children
are Kradualy getting to hate
theij father.
m m m
The Council: The life Har
riet describes is indeed almost
unendurable, yet she would be
making a mistake to break up
her marriage without a stren
uous effort to change things.
For; one thing, does she
really believe she will be any
better off financialy when she
has to collect an allowance
from this same husband while
he is suDDorting two house
holds?
She will have certain legal
rights, it is true, but the ac
tual amount of money avail
able under those rights may
be much less than she sup
poses and she may have her
troubles collecting.
For another thing, does she
believe her children will love
their father more when they
are deprived of whatever good
they can gain from his com
pany? Like most children in
this situation they will prob
ably feel their father has de
serted them.
There must be good reason
for Ceil to say this man is
besically good and sincerely
wievoted to his family. His
children must in some way
be aware of this devotion.
Harriet should recognize
her husband's behavior is the
result of some personality dis
turbance. She . must try to
make him recognize this too.
Money in itself does not
cause anyone to behave in any
specific way. It is a powerful
symbol, representing power
and the ability to offer or
withhold good.'
Harriet's husband is prob
aly in need of some psychi
atric help, but he will have to
be led in easy stages.
Possibly Harriet can first
lead him to the office of a
community agency, dealing
with family problems or to a
clergyman with the object of
discussing their marital difficulties.
