FRANTZ United Press International Washington (UPD Man's greatest attempt to find out about the wxrld he lives m- the International Geophysical Year is approaching its final stage, but the scientists who have taken part in it are not even thinking about quitting the job. The IGY, which began on July 1, 1957, for an 18-month period ending next Dec. 31, engages the attention of about 10,000 scientists from 66 coun tries who are seeking to ex pand man's knowledge of the earth, sea, atmosphere and sun. : Between now and the end of the year, they probably will devote most of their re search to Antarctica, oceanog raphy and solar phenomena Looking beyond the end of the IGY, international com mittees already have been es tablished for continuation of the work at the South Pole and for further exploration of the seven seas. There also is talk about an "international year" related to the "life" or biological sci ences, as distinct from the physical sciences, but no agreement has been reached. First 12 Months The first 12 months of the IGY gave tremendous impetus to space exploration through satellite launchings by Soviet Russia and the United States, and the use of rockets for many experimental purposes. ." Some of the major IGY ac complishments so" far apart from the satellite launchings have been: ,The establishment, by air Just Two Pieces Cuddle toys baby's favor ite.

The first complete overland crossing of Antarctica by the United Kingdom - New Zea land Trans-Antarctic expedi tion under Sir Edmund Hil lary and Dr. Vivian E. Fuchs. The first surface measure ments of gravity in the open sea made on Nov. 22, 1957, from the United States ship Compass Island, using a new sea gravimeter. ' Ocean Currant Discovery by British and American oceanographers of a swift ocean current running counter to the Gulf Stream and about 10,000 feet below It. opening a new era of inves tigation into deep sea move ments. Confirmation by observato ries located on Pacific islands of the probable existence of an "electro jet," a narrow -equatorial electrical current circling the earth in the high atmosphere. Exploration by American, Peruvian and Chilean scien tists of the structure of the Andes mountains in South America. They found that the roots of mountains extend in to the earth to unsuspected depths, a great contribution to knowledge of the global crust. Rockets Launched U. S. and .Canadian scien tists at Fort Churchill, Cana da, over a 10-month period launched 41 rockets into tne upper atmosphere, the larg est program of its kind ever conducted in the higher lati tudes. A great deal was learn ed about the atmosphere from about 46 to 160 miles above the earth's surface.' In June, 1958, the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey announced a new method of measuring ' mag netic forces originating inside the earth and in outer space, an extremely important new tool for geophysics. At the end of June, 1958, the Scripps Institute of Ocean ography and the United States Fish and Wildlife Serv ice jointly announced discov ery of a new "river of the sea" in the Pacific near the equator. It was estimated to be as strong as a thousand Mississippi rivers and as swift bs the Gulf Stream. It flows for at least 3,500 miles. Scientific Stations The U. S. established sci entific stations on floating "ice islands" in both Antarc tic and. Arctic regions. This feat has revealed the practic ability of permanent human habitation in both polar areas in the event scientific and future economic discoveries warrant it. Some of the most dramatic events of the final six months of the IGY will center in Ant arctica. The Russians, for example, will try to reach the so-called "Dole of inaccessibility" in the heart of the continent. The U. S. government in May launched a 12-nation project for continuation of in ternational cooperation in Antarctica after the expira tion of IGY. Preliminary Replies The preliminary replies from 11 nations were suffi ciently favorable to justify continued negotiations to ward an Antarctica confer ence and treaty. These in ef fect would make Antarctica a huge scientific laboratory for an indefinite period. Ques tions of territorial claims were bypassed in favor of sci entific cooperation. The first 12 months of Ant arctic studies bv 12 countries led to the conclusion that the Antarctic ice-cap is in most areas deeper than had been surmised before the system atic depth-measuring opera tions. . By Jimmy Hatlo IGY Work ing to End work in the coming sea sons should determine whetfr erAntarctica, beneath the ice cap, is in fact a continent, two continents, or an archipelago united by ice. Warm Period The same investigations will solve the ancient riddle of what would happen if there were another warm pe riod in global history to melt down the tremendous volume of ice in Antarctica. Russian IGY scientists al ready have estimated that melting of the Antarctic ice cap would raise the ocean level by 45 meters. An earlier estimate was 15 meters. In the final months of the IGY, investigations also will intensify into the mysterious rays which the sun projects into ipace, important to fu ture projects for human trav el from earth. McLEOD Guests at Barber Home By CAROLINE L. HARDING McLeod House guests of Mr." and Mrs. Harold Barber recently were their son, Lt. Allen Barber, and his wife, Mary, and son, Douglas, of Salt Lake City, Utah. Lieutenant Barber will re port soon to Ft. Belvoir, Va., where he will be stationed for two years with the Arm. His Most of Nation fo Gel Fair Weather By United Press International Most of the country was slated for fair skies and tem peratures were due for little change, except for the Mid west, where the weather will play it hot and cold. Forecasters said tempera tures would rise over most of the Great Lakes region, ahead of a movement of cool er air moving eastward from the Rockies into Wisconsin. During the night, there were scattered thunderstorms over the Rockies and the Southern Plateau region, but the rainfall there and else where was generally light. Exceptions occurred at Cari bou, Maine, where 1.46 inches of downpour boosted the town's 24-hour drenching to 4.14, and Laredo, Tex. Laredo had a fall of 1.30 inches. Robinson Reported Satisfactory Hollywood (UPD -Actor Edward G. Robinson,, 65, was reported in "satisfactory con dition" today at Cedars of Lebanon hospital where he was hospitalized for observa tion and a checkup. The stage and film star en tered thg hospital Monday after his arrival from Las Vegas. He was landed there by a Los Angeles - bound American Airlanes plane which " made an unscheduled stop Sunday. Robinson was taken to. the Southern Nevada Memorial hospital by ambulance and treated for a "lower stomach upset." He left after a brief stay and spent the night at the Sands hotel before con tinuing his trip to the coast. University Park, Pa". (UPD A survey of Penn State journalism , graduates since 1930 showed that most of them are still in jobs connect ed with mass communications and that . they enjoy their work. About one-fourth of the 550 graduates who took part in the survey are employed by daily newspapers; 10 per cent are in public relations and 9 per cent with advertising agencies. Vets UrgecJ to Start Preparing for College Veterans planning to start school this fall under the Ko rean GI Bill are urged to take action now in order to avoid the ' last-minute rush, S. T. Brannock, officer in charge, Veterans administration of fice, Medford, said today. With some 600,000 veterans expected to be in training this fall, VA regional offices will be operating at top speed to process their applications. By filing their applications now, veterans will save themselves unnecessary delays, Brannock said. To help veterans, Brannock issued eight .. points to be checked. They are: Allowed One Change 1. Veterans are allowed only one change of course; therefore, they should give plenty of thought to their ul timate goal and the training program leading to the attain; ment of that goal. - " 2. Veterans not sure of their training goal may request VA vocational counseling. 3. Veterans should be cer tain their course has been Gl-approved by the state in which the school is located.

House guests at "Hardings Paradise" recently were Mr. and Mrs. Harry Harding Jr. and four daughters from Alta, Calif., and Eldridge Kobernik and son, Ricki, from Roseburg. and submitted to the VA as proof of such dependents. Enough Money 8. Veterans should have enough money of their own to tide them over the first two months of training. It takes that long, ordinarily, for a veteran's first monthly check to reach him. The rea son is that payments are made only after each month of training is completed, and not before. Before payment can be made, the VA must receive a certification signed by the veteran and his school, certi fying the veteran's attend ance during the month for which payment is to be made. The law allows VA 20 days after receipt of certifications to get checks in the mail. Burns Estate Cut To Only $428 Hollywood (UPD Barbara Burns, 20, today had $428 left from the $20,000 estate left her by her father, the late comedian Bob (Bazooka) Burns. The estate of the attractive would-be singer, convicted re cently on misdemeanor nar cotic charges, was settled Monday by Superior Court Judge Burdette J. Daniels. Troubles and costs growing out of the young woman's ar rest last January on narcotic charges had trimmed the original $25,000 estate."
