'Bubble-Curtain' Marks
Finis io Many Fish
Because they are forced bv
Nature to practice "together
ness," many millions of
schooling-fish may disappear
forever behind the '"bubble-
curtain."
Many species of the ocean's
inhabitants were designed by
.Nature to travel and live in
schools. Often in these schools
are hundreds of millions of
individuals.
The school moves forward,
over the bottom, at the sea's
surface, or somewhere in be
tween, depending on the
species. The schooling habit
was probably adopted for pro
tective reasons. Predators
- slashing into a school kills
but a few members of the
school and most escape. The
species would survive at the
sacrifice of a few. . .. .
Since the time the first
man viewed the swimming
hoardes, he figured various
mays to catch more fish. For
many ages before, during, and
even after Biblical times,
fishermen have designed and
used nets. Some unethical
fishermen have resorted to
explosives and even poisons
to kill fish in large numbers.
Price Advanced
As the fish schools gradual
ly became fewer, and farther
apart, the price of fish ad
vanced; the demand increased
and new methods of securing
more fish, quicker and cheap
per, became the cry.
It was so simple it is rather
uncomplimentary to mankind
that no one thought of it be
fore. Merely a few hundred
or thousand feet of flexible
tubing in which small holes
are placed at two or three
Inch intervals.
The fishing ' boat, loaded
with this perforated pipe,
drops the tubing in the water;
once in place air compressors
on the boat pump air under
pressure into the pipes. A
regular curtain of bubbles
rises in the water. The fish
school, mistaking the curtain
of bubbles for a barrier, turns
away from it and toward the
boat. ........... ; -.
Diabolical Cleverness
Here again man's diabolical
cleverness exerts itself again,
' for machines in the ship send
' out powerful electrical im
pulses that paralyze tne nsn s
swim muscles, causing them
actually to swim close enough
to the ship to come under the
influence of strong suction
pumps that suck the helpless
fish into the waiting holds.

chines will work, most me
chanical things do; but here
biology must be figured in.
Machines ire fine, we need
them, and we have them; but

nothing in the sea or on the

Too much exploi

useless as the goose that died
because she laid a golden
egg. :

Pope, Macmillan
Visit at Vatican
Vatican City OJPD Pope
John XXIII warmly welcomed
British Prime Minister Har

the Vatican today as a states
man "inspired by the great
ideals of freedom, justice and
peace."
The Roman Catholic
Church, the pontiff told Mac
millan in a private audience,
also "works tirelessly for the
establishment of a true, dur
able peace."
Macmillan, Foreign Secre
tary Lord Home, Minister to
the- Holy See Sir Peter Scar
lett and a party of 10 other
persons were received with
all the splendor and pomp of
an official visit.
Macmillan has just finished
two days of talks with Italian
officials. Most heads of
government who come to
Rome on official visits calhon
the Pope before they leave
but this one created more than
usual interest because the
archbishop of Canterbury, Dr.
Geoffrey Fisher, will have an

RISE OF GLAMOUR GIRL - In 1U50, Marilyn Monroe was
just another pretty starlet when she posed, left, as Miss
Morale of the Marine Corps. She was photographed con-
Marilyn Monroe's Tamous Beauty Curves
ask Lonely and Frustrated Individual
Eriitnr's note: To the post-war
(generation of Americans, marl
iyn Monroe seemed the hest and
biggest symbol of what girls
would like to be and what men
would like, period. But for all
her beauty, lite most famous
curves on earth hid a very lonely
person. -
Now her marriage to Arthur
Miller is on the rocks. Here Is
the first of three dispatches nar
rating Marilyn Monroe's quest
for love.
By ROBERT LILES .
UPI Correspondent
Marilyn Monroe lolled on a
crumpled" red velvet drape
and her sensational curves
were photographed in all
their natural beauty.
That day in 1949 was a
magnificent moment for the
art of illustrating calendars
and accelerating male heart
beats. But the celebrated pho
to didn't make a star of Mari
lyn Monroe.
Her whole life, it would
seem, is a story of things that
didn't happen.
Her birth didn't repair a
shattered . home: Her early
years didn't deliver childhood
joys and her blossoming years
didn t produce the real plea
sures of young love. -And
even, after her eventual ar
rival at the peak of success
(after a hard climb, the curves
notwithstanding) there was
little happiness.
A teen-age marriage to the
guy next door had failed A
second to Joe DiMaggio fared
no better.
Marilyn seemed condemned
to be a paper pinup girl even
in real life. She could be ad
mired but she couldn't be
touched. You could dream,
but it wasn't real.
Along Comes Miller
' And then came Arthur.
Miller.
He was different: The in
tense intellectual, a man of
intense fecjing, and both
head over heels in love.
Marilyn cooed happily about
having children, snuggled
with him in nightclubs,
learned a new kind of serious
acting for his plays, tried to
be a housewife. :
But the home life didn't
jell. The children weren't
born. The pin-up curse re
turned and the perfect mar
riage of beauty and brains is
on the rocks.
There in a nutshell is the
life of Marilyn Monroe. It
will make a fascinating movie
script some day: beauty, rags
to riches, everything - every
thing but the traditional hap
py ending.
In everything but her per
sonal, life, Marilyn is now at
the height of fame, riches and
talent.
It has been a rough road,
but a fast one from the
squalid Los Angeles hospital
where she was born 34 years
ago.
Her birth certificate reads
Norma Jeane Mortenson, a
concession to the father who
deserted her mother before
the baby was born. She grew
up as Norma Jean Baker,
daughter of Gladys Baker, a
film cutter at RKO Studios.
That was a first and mem
orable connection with the
movie industry.
Dream Sustains Her
It was Norma Jean's early
instilled dream of being a
movie star, perhaps, which
sustained her in life in 12
foster homes and an orphan
age. . These were her homes
her mother was com
1? i
mitted to a mental institution,
Her life during these years
from 1926 to the early 40s
left scars of loneliness and
frustration which may explain
some of the difficulties in her
private life.
It probably can be said that
not the least of these early
traumatic experiences was
when she was about. 8 years
old. A middle-aged boarder in
one of the foster homes en
ticed her into his room with
promises of presents. He mo
lested her! Her foster mother
at the time wanted no trouble
with her best-paying boarder
and shushed the weeping girl
with threats.
That may. have been the
The Family Counci
Editor's Noto: The Family Council consists of a Judge, a psychia
trist, three clergymen, three editors and a women's editor. Each article
is a summary of an actual case history. The Council reports on
pruoienis uim nave oeen uenu
counselors.
Chester F. - Our children
don't bring us closer, they
separate us.
Lillian F.-He wants me to
neglect them and go places
just with him.
9 - -
Chester F.-When a man be
comes a father, must he stop
being a person, a husband,
an individual like before? I
never thought that when chil
dren came in, companionship
.would go out.
We're married seven years.
Although Lillian and I are
wild about bike-riding and we
met in a Bicycle Club, would
you believe we haven't had
a bike ride together the whole
timel She became pregnant
right away and never felt
well enough to come along.
Now Nancy is 6 and Mark 5,
and all her time and energy
are for them. 'I get' the
crumbs.
We never have friends over
for a real party. But kiddy
parties? Every other week, it
seems. And when we do go'
anywhere,, we're always the
first to leave because Lily
feels nervous about Mark's
cold or, Nancy's nightmares.
What happens to a marri
age when a wife turns into
100 per cent mother?
Lillian F.-What does he ex-pect-bring
children Into the
world and then go night
clubbing, bike-riding, dancing
and let the children grow up
any old way?
Most men would be glad
to have their wives as de
voted and conscientious to
ward their youngsters as I
am with Nancy and Mark.
Chester can bo patient. I'll
ride a bike with him again.
When the kids are older, we
can all go riding together.
And he forgets about parties.
We did have one on New
Year's Eve a few years ago
and the noise and shouting
frightened poor Nancy out of
a deep sleep. I trace her night
mares to that. Drinking par
ties can wait until the chil
dren can understand what's
happening. !
A woman can do just so
much and no more. I must say
no lo someone and the some
one must be Chester right
now. He's old enough to
know why. The children
aren't.

formation of the personal
Monroe doctrine she later set
for herself - hands off; look,
but don't touch.
No one has ever said that
Marilyn Monroe doesn't like
to be admired.
She first discovered the
pleasure of attention when
she went to Van Nuys High
school in a white sweater a
size too small.
She also had a walk that
movie critics were later to
claim made her stage exits as
moving as her entrances. .
She had denied all publicity
stories that her walk was cre
ated by an early leg injury or
a starvation diet. "I just
walk" she murmurs
wnn py responsiDio agencies ana
realize that 'the biggest break
any child can have is to be
the product of a happy mar
riage? , ...
A mother who grows so
overprotective, so unneces
sarily wrapped up in her
children, is usually running
away from her marriage. Un
der the pretext of being too
busy, preoccupied with child
care, she leaves her husband
out on a limb. He must fig
ure what happened to the
once-loving twosome, and how
he alone can keep it warm
through the chill of child
raising. At the University of Michi
gan, two social scientists have
completed a study of over 900
marriages and in their new
book, "Husbands and Wives
The Dynamics of Married Liv
ing," say: "Children are like
medicine; in proper doses
they create health, but an
overdose can be fatal to the
marriage."
This may come as a sur
prise to people who assume
that all that's needed for a
Blue Heaven is Molly and Me
and Baby. Molly's or, in this
case, Lily's sense of propor
tion must be added.
Lily should examine her
self to see why she is letting
Herself be too busy with the
children to cultivate the mar
riage. If it's merely carless-
ness and thoughtlessness, she
can catch herself up short and
retrace easily. If, however, it's
fear or distaste, she should
talk things over with a mar
riage counselor. By denying
mat there s a problem, she's
doing the whole family an
injustice.
Seeing parents embrace.
noting some demonstrative
ness between them, gives chil
dren a bedrock feeling about
nome. ihe assurance that
Papa loves Mama sends them
to bed feeling safe. Little
Nancy's nightmares may be
connected with vague doubts
on that score.
A successful marriage is
one that lasts not "for (he
sake of the children" but for
the sake of the married. In
the normal course of events,
Chester and not the kids will
be Lily's life's companion.
Saying no to him may be say
ing no to life.
Start saying yes to Chester,
Lily.

Men soon were following
Norma Jean in her sweater.
And she liked it. She craved
the attention her orphan back
ground had denied her.
But she also wanted the
deep love usually first sup
plied by parents.
At 18,. Norma Jean knew
that her foster parents at the
time, whom she liked,' were
planning to move away.' She
faced being shunted to an
other home.'
So Norma Jean, with the
connivance of her foster
mother, picked out a nice boy
next floor and married him.
.James Dougherty was 21
and had a good job in a Lock
heed aircraft plant. -
Marilyn tried hard to be a

recalled. She darned his socks
and was an immaculate house
keeper, but he described her
cooking as "surrealistic," a
steady diet of carrots and peas
because she : liked the color
combination.

Beast Figured
At 700 Pounds
By Track Depth
London - lUPl - The Abom
inable Snowman is eight feet
tall and tips the scales at 700
pounds - or else there's a
practical joker of that size
and weight cavorting around
the Himalayas to fool ex
plorers. '
Squadron Leader L. W.
Davies, one of the most ex
perienced Himalayan climb
ers, today gave this estimate
of the fabled beast based on
his own day-long tracking of
footprints found on one of his
seven expeditions to the Roof
of the World.
Permitted To Study Scalp
Reports reaching here from
Katmandu said Sir Edmund
Hillary, who conquered Mt.
Everest, was granted permis
sion to take out of Nepal for
scientific study a scalp be
lieved by natives to be that of
the Yeti, the native name for
the Abominable Snowman.
Hillary is leading an ex
pedition which is attempting
to prove the existence of the
Abominable Snowman.
Davies said that on June 12.
1955, he and a comrade fol
lowed the tracks of "a very
large two-legged beast" in the
glacial Valley of the Kultl In
the Central Himalayas.
Had Long Stride
"Its stride was about twice
that of a man," Davies said,
and on very steep slopes It
had slid on its rump using its
fists to retard its descent. The
Spans between the fist marks
were about twice mine.
"The average dimensions of
the five-toed footprints were
12 inches long, 9 inches wide
and they sank into the snow
by as much as 11 . Inches,
where my own feet had sunk
one and one-half Inches - and
I weighed 198 pounds. This
indicated a weight of about
700 pounds." ,
