MLUt'ORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MtDKORD, OHLGON SUNDAY. DECEMBER 2, 1962 B 3 Oregon Man Among P By JAMES J. DOYLE United Press International Leaders of the first U.S. at lemnt In climb Mt. Everest are hopeful that the Sino-In-rlian border conflict will not Moo next year's exnedition. A croun of 19 Americans, a British transDort officer and a Neoalese liaison officer un der the leadership of a Cali fornia film producer plan to launch the assault on the "nrld's highest mountain next Mav 1. "The Indian ambassador to the United States has assured us that unless the Sinn-Indian f'chtine gets very much worse j it won t conflict with our ex nedition," the leader. Swiss horn Norman Dvhrenfurth of Santa Monica, Calif., said. "And our own state depart- ment so far sees no reason to think the fighting will affect our plans." Assemble In Katmandu The expedition will assem ble in Katmandu. Nepal, teb. 14 and will begin the 175-mile bike to the Everest base camp. Some IS tons of equipment will be borne on the backs of 500 native porters. The expe dition also will have 36 high level native Sherpa porters. Deputy leader William Sirl, a University of California at Berkeley physicist, said suc cessive camps will be estab lished at levels of 17,800 feet, 21.500 feet and just under 2(1.000 feet. A final assault party will leave the last camp (south col) and climb to 27,000 feet where It will spent the night. The next day it v jl try for the 29.121-foot summit. "We're confident, but not overly confident because weather conditions can defeat the strongest teams," Dyhren furth said. "Near the summit are winds up to 90 miles an hour and temperatures can drop 40 degrees below zero." Third to Conquer If successful, the Americans would be the third expedition known to conquer Everest. E'r Edmund Hillary and Tenziny Norgay of Sir John Hunt's British team were the first in 1953, followed in 1956 by a Swiss group. Red China claimed that one of its expeditions reached the top in 1960, leaving behind a plaster bust of Fed leader Mao Tse-tung. Siri said other mountaineers doubted the claim because an Indian team that was on the mountain at the same time was forced to turn back because of a violent Rtorm. Siri said it was impossible to determine now who among the 19 Americans will stand atop Mt. Everest if the expe dition succeeds. "We hope to get at least two to the top," he said, "but who they are will depend on their physical condition and the weather, Soviet Couple Has 101st Anniversary Moscow -IUPII- Mr. and Mrs. Shakhbadov of Azerbaijan have entered their second century of wedded bliss, Mos cow Radio said Saturday. The Soviet couple celebrat ed their 101st wedding anni versary recently, according to the broadcast. Both are 117 years old, and they married when they were 16. The Shakhbadovs have 11 children and nearly 100 I grandchildren and great grandchildren, the report said "If they are held too long on the south col by bad weather, some nuy'it be weak ened by lack of 'xyi;en, ex posure, dehydratirn and loss of sleep." Likely Candidate A likely candidate for the final assault, Siri said, is Lu ther G. Jerstad, University of Oregon speech instructor. A veteran climber at 26, Jerstad was invited to join the expedi tion last July when a senior Mt. Rainier guide withdrew, leaving a vacancy. The ohvinus danger doesn't bother the blond, blue-eyed teacher. "I'd rather climb Ev erest than drive the Los An geles freeway,'' he said. Brains are a prerequisite for being a member of the assault team. Five members have PH. arty to Attempt E verest r D's; two, including Jerstad. I have M A. degrees, and almost i every one of the others has a i H A. degree.

"We'll have to he lucky to do that," Dyhrenfurth said. "But we're certainly going well prepared. This is the strongest American team ever to set forth in the Himalayas. 12th Annual D.A.V.
