Vacationers Find Hamburg
Germany's
By balph villers

Hamburg, Germany (UPI)
Looking lor a stuffed all 1
gator? Hamburg probably is
tlie best place to start your
search.
Lying in Northern Europe,
Hamburg just wouldn't strike
the stuffed-alligator hunter as
a logical starting place.
And because it has the repu
tatiim of being a giant port
and industrial complex, Ham
burg is sometimes overlooked
by vacationers in Europe.
First off, Hamburg proba
bly is Germany's gayest city.
And its sights range from
the beauties of Outer Alster
lake, within hailing distance
of the city center, to the after
dark dazzle of the St. Pauli
district in the port quarter.
St. Pauli is home to 400
night clubs, cabarets and bars

as well as some unusually
stocked hock shops. At least
one of the latter is well sup
plied with stuffed alligators of
nil sizes, left behind by money-short
seamen.
Plying the waters of the
Alster is one of the best ways
to get a perspective view of
this city. Regular tour boats
sail the river-lake, but you
also can hop abcard one of the
commuter launches that carry
people from distant residen
tial sections to the heart of
the city.
The copper-roofed build
ings and spires of the cily-St.
Michael's church, the Town
hall, St. Peter's church-rise
up as the boat heads north
away from the commercial
center.
Soon the boat is cruising by
tree and flower-lined banks
with a seemingly endless suc
cession of luxurious homes
and apartment buildings in
the background.
Tunnel Transportation
The commuter boats aren't
the only way the people of
Hamburg have of getting
around. The 1.47(i-fool-long
Elbe river tunnel, 60 feet be
low water level, leads from
the St. Pauli district to the
free port area and is reached
by pedestrians and vehicles
on large elevators which drop
to the crossing level.
The 38-square-mile harbor
area is an impressive sight.
Every month this biggest of
German harbors handles
about 1,700 oceangoing ships
that come down the Elbe to
dock.
An hour-and-a-half boat
tour passes scores of towering
loading cranes, m a m m o t h
floating dry-docks, .shipyards
and vessels flying flags from
around the world.
Although an old city, Ham
burg suffered severe damage
in several wars, especially
during the World War II
bombings.
But ui the shadow of the
copper-clad tower of St. Mi
chael's church one of the
quaintest of medieval streets
survives. Inside a narrow en
try way, a cobbled ll-foot-wide
street is lined bv three story

to
timbered and brick homes
built by merchant guilds in
the seventeenth century.
St. Michael's, dating from ,
the mid-18th century, is one1
of the city's important land
marks. Another church, St.
Nicholas, with its towering
482-foot intricate neo-gothic
sandstone steeple, is both a
major sight and a memorial.
The ruins of the bombed out
nave have been undisturbed
as a reminder of the destruc
tion of war.
Hamburg is easily reached
(several ship lines serve it)
from the United Sates, and
Scandinavian airlines system
recently inaugurated direct
nonstop jet service here from
New York). It is a perfect
place to begin a visit to Ger
many. Prices haven't yet hit
the level of some European
countries. For example, a

from about $5 up.
Show People Invest

Eisenhower, his wife and

"What a welcome " Eisen

The Eisenhowers plan to

Adenauer's son. Max, city

at the train and presented
huge bouquets to Mrs. Eisen

"In the eyes of the German
people, this is the visit of aji
old friend," said the West
German government bulletin.
"The Germans know what
role Eisenhower played in
tieir own history.
"They appreciate that a
victorious opponent in war
has become a defender of
German freedom against the
threats of a new dictatorship
. . . He can be sure that the
Germans have forgotten only
one thing - that he entered
their land first at the head
of an enemy army."
