The six remaining of the BIZ crew seemed to be
back where they had started that Teey had been
added to their company and they had new memories of
sudden death.
For five days after the disasters of Nov 20 they

and Bit piloted by Capt. Kenneth H. Turner of the Air

Sleeping Bags,
Three Days Rations

To be on the safe side he took
with him sleeping bags, a tent and
three days rations.
He turned over TO Monteverde
his primus stove, fuel, shovel
a walkie-talkie radio, and most OF
the rest of his equipment, in case
bad weather should delay their
return.
With a trail we'll worked out,
there should be no difficulty in
coming back shortly to get the
rest of the party.
1t made everybody cheerful to
have SO many of them starting out.
O'Hara was made snug on the
sled in his sleeping bag.
They joked together.
Dec. 8 would be Monteverde'
birthday, and Tetley and Spencer
hoped to have him out at the sta
ton in time to celebrate il.
Spencer went ahead on snow
shoes to test for crevaSSeS.
Tetley rode at the rear Of the
sled, driving it.
Most of the time Wedel followed
on foot.
They progressed slowly but
safely in this way until they were
a mile and a half from the BIZ.
Here there was a fairly steep
rise before them, up which led a
slight trough which. from his con-
formation, Tetley knew would be
safe from crevasses.
They were still being cautious
about them, although they were
pretty sure they were out of the
crevasSed area.
TO get the sled up the rise
easily. they needed to take it at
high speed, so they decided that
every one should get on board for
a ride.
Spencer knelt down to take off
his snowshoes.

Proceed at Once
to Next Logical Step

They were so used to dis
appointment and bad situations
that they accepted this calmly,
proceeding at once to the next
logical step.
They set up the tent, which
gave shelter TO Spencer and
.O'Hara, and Tetley dug himself a
snow-hole, and they took what
other steps they could to make
themselves comfortable.
For O'Hara, the predicament
was terrible.
He knew well enough that his
feet were well gangrened, and
what that meant.
His life depended on the factor
Of time.
The others could face the situa-
tion of being without a stove, with
three days rations and no radio.
That was bad enough. but they
could also presume that they
would be found and supplies
dropped.
Supplies could not solve
O'Hara's problem.
He was quiet by nature, and he
took his condition quietly, with
unshakable courage.
They had all become experts at
waiting and they settled down

Wedel Clutched,
Then He Was Gone

Tetley got off the sled on one
side, and Wedel came up to the
other side, to give it shove when
it started.
They were talking TO each other
and to O'Hara across its narrow
width, when suddenly Wedel went
through the surface.
He clutched at the sled. trying
to get grip on il with his nit
tens, and through the sleeping bag
OHara felt Wedels hands slide
over his legs.
1t happened too fast; for a mo-
ment Wedel clutched, and then he
was gone.
Tetley hardly had time to think
anything then.
He jumped onto the sled, gunned
IL for all it was worth and ran il
A short distance ahead.
Then he and Spencer returned
10 the hole through which Wedel
had fallen.
They had stopped directly across
a crevasse about eight feet wide,
over which had formed hard
bridge of snow two feet thick.

SOME THINGS PRESIDENTS or
THE II. B. A. SHOULD KNOW

1. If you have a death in your To-
cal lodge, notify The office of the death
first before making any kind Of ar
rangement Ask for a death certfi-
-ata or death proof blank; have it
properly 1iIled, notarized and retuIn-
I'd to Che Office within eight days.
2. See to it that all members Of
your lodge have a certificate or policy.
Do not wait until the death of q men,
Der and then proceed to get a policy.
If you do, it costs more, must be nota-
rized a n properly signed. In 50
doing much time is lost and much ex-
pense is incurred.
3. All quarterly report blanks must
be in the office when the Boards open
If you are not present in person. If
this is not done the commission al
lowed the local presidents will be null
and void. Therefore, your report must
be in the office on or before the date
designated on your blank.
4. Don't wait until the date that
t h e Board is set to purchase your
money order. Buy your money order
before the date Of the Board and mail
it before the date Of the Board if you
are not going to be present in person.
Failure to do this, you win be notified
that your report is short.
s. All presidents cannot be served
at the same time. We take our turn
and you come next to the one Just
ahead Of yoa
6. If you do not have a regular
undertaken to handle the body OF a de-
ceased member. be sure to &c t the
proper permit from the registrar of
your county before burying the body.
And, be sure to send all of this infor-
nation to the office Immediately. Fail
ure to do this has caused and is caus-
ing much trouble and confusion.
z. You are to send return postage
to the Office for information that you
desire.
8. The banks and all business con-
Germs, because of the war situation
are compelled to demand certain char
ges on checks, etc.
8. All beneficiaries who fail to at

problem in race relationships. Being
rather fine type of American, Mr..
Graves candidly admits that in many,
many instances justice and opportun-
ity have been denied the Negro in the
South. He also states that intelli-
gent a n liberal Southerners would
like to see these injustices eliminated.
He believes that sound, thorough ed
ucational program for both groups is
the best solution for the South's rae
ial problem.
The editor Of the "Fighting South"
feels that the Negro problem can best
be dealt with by those involved. lie
rather favors the idea of the best
thinking leaders of both groups work
ing together to evolve plans for the
mutual good. He does not advocate
outside interference in a communitys
race problems. He states emphatical-
lv that with the right kind of stimuli
the South will do the right thing but
it cannot be forced into doing any
thing that its own policy does not die
tate. You may not agree with all Of
the authors ideas but "The Fighting
South" is well worth reading.

One of the most interesting of these
