Marie Dionne Leaves Convent
10 Return 10 Her Family
BrOther.in-Law
Says Quint Is
Confused, Hoaesick

WATERLOO, Que. Up - Marie
Dionne, the quintuplet who took a
nuns first vows two months ago,
has left the convent and gone
home. A church official said she
had departe d temporarily for
health reasons but her family said
she was homesick.
The mother superior at the Que
bee convent of the Servants OF the
Blessed Sacrament, which Marie
entered as a p0stulant last Novem-
Der, said the 2O-year-old girl left
there Wednesday.
Marie's brother-in-law, Maurice
Girouard, said at his home here
she arrived at her parents home
in Callander, Ont, early yester-
day, accompanied by three broth
ers and her quintuplet sister
Emile. The latter hit the headlines
herself when she became lost in
Montreal Friday en- route to join
Marie.
Emile LEST
Commenting on that incident,
Girouard said: Apparently all
kinds of rumors started to spread
when Emile approached a police
man in Montreal. The girl simply
identified herself and asked for di-
rections. She was visiting friends
in Ste. tAgathe tQue.) and was on
her way to st. Charles, Que, to
meet Marie"
The brotfer-in.law said Marie
had come to his home from the
convent and that Emile had Joined
her here Saturday.
Girouard said Marie-smallest of
the quints at birth-seemed con-
fused and -homesick. He added he
did not know whether she planned
to 60 back to the eloister, where
she took two-year vows of poverty,
chastity and obedience May "a.
The Montreal Gazette quoted the
CUNTS father OLIVIA as saying
Marie had written him last week
complaining Of inconsistencies.
Can Go Bsek
81 suspected from her unhappy
letter that she was trying to decide
whether to remain in the cloisters
or come back" the Gazette quoted
him. II know she has been terribly
lonely, but she eanralways, 60 back.
It has been tough on her being
separated from her four sisters
with whom she had lived since
they were babies"
The Dionne home in Callander
could not be reached by telephone
last night.
When she took her vows last
May, her father said Marie ap-
peared genuinely happy in the
convent.
The order requires candidates
forEnunhood to serve two years as
novices.
Life at the convent was de.
scribed as mot difficult or hard"
but it was along saustere lines.
With other white!garbed nuns,
Marie spent her days in prayer
and silent work on priests vest
ments, altar clothes and similar
duties.

Marine Training at Quontico
DELAYS Sontee's Attack Mile

Gen. Lemuel C. Shepherd, COM
mandant of the schools and for
mer Marine Corps commandant.
Gen. Shepherd was quoted by
the spokesman as saying that
permission to let Santee leave
at the start of the training
course here would be unfair
both to Santee and other men,
bers of the training class.
However, next winter Santee
plans to compete in at least a
half-dozen top indoor meets. in
GLIDING The Evening Star Games.
Hard work in the growing
years has made him the runner
he is today, Santee believes. His
father owns 1000 acres of ranch
and farmland and Yves has put
his feet down on every foot
of it.
Dad Believed In Work.
''My Dad always believed in
work." Yves says. HE still does.
We had a couple of hired hands,
but he always expected us to
work just as hard as anybody. I
thought nothing of working 10
hours a day in the field while
was going to school, In fact,
missed a tremendous amount of
school. Dad believed work was
more important. He was always
calling up the school and having
me sent home to work. I'm glad
now. I'm not naturally strong
through the shoulders and body.
but having to get out there and
work has made me strong"
Yves has no sisters and one
brother, a 6-foot-3, 195-pound
high school freshman, who has
no time for athletics. Like his
dad, he believes in work and
spends all of his spare time at it.
Santee wasn't born dreaming
of 4-minute miles. He first set
his sights on a grain elevator.
separated by about a mile of
Kansas plains. He was an
eighth-grade student at Ashland
School and the physical educa-
ton instructor told the class to
run to the elevator and back.
II got back before anyone
else," Santee says. He has been
doing that ever since.

tournaments in years. New York
reports heavy action, particular
ly in the man VS.. man depart
ment. Sammy Snead'S indeci-
sion about playing, after being
installed as co-favorite with Ben

but you can make a side wager
that Sam will be in there if he's
able to walk to the first tee.
BaltuSrol, with its long, mar
row .fairways and tightly trapped

the real big guys of golf. 1t will
be a test of power, skill and
courage, with emphasis on the
latter. A fellow can get the
whim-whamS merely looking at
a map of the layout-especially
a fellow with a hook or slice.
But it figures to be a tournament
where a good. consistent golfer
with a stout heart will sneak in
ahead of a name"
Snead will play if only because
he's never won the Open and
times running out on the man.
Hogan and Sam may be the two
to beat, but somehow we look for
an outsider to win.

Speaking of money and fight
erS-Joey Maxim had an inter-
esting quote after his victory
over youthful Floyd Patterson,
which surprised some experts.
The former light-heavyweight
champion said he was glad he
won because it meant money to
Jack KearnS, his veteran man
ager.
He deserves money" Joey
said. ME, I've never had much
money and I live simply, but
Jack has to- have it because he
likes to give it away and spend
it and live high. And he de-
serves it."
That's q tricky line of reason
ing. but there's no question that
the Doc, who guided Jack Demp-
sey to the heavyweight crown
knows how to spend money. He's
been through q couple
of small fortunes. It's q great

No Races at Quantico.
Santee, who will do no COM
petitive running at Quantlco
during his IL weeks of training
there before returning to Kansas
University to complete his edu-
cation, has been described as
"cocky." It is an unfair de-
Scription. A brown-haired,

slim, but sturdy from years of
hard work on his fathers Kan
SaS cattle and wheat ranch. David
Wesley Santee appears more de-
termined than cocky.
1T depends on how you define
'cocky'," he says. IF they mean
I'm cocky in a sense that think
I'm better than you or someone
else, they're wrong I never
think I'm better than another
competitor, so far as individual
character or personality is con-
cerned.
But if they call me 'cocky'
because I know what I am cap
able of and believe in myself
then I am"

Drove in From Kansas.
It was a tired Santee who ar
rived at Quantico last night. He
and his wife of two-andsa- half
months, Danna, who was grad
uated from Kansas with a degree
in accounting, had driven from
her family's home in Elkhart,
Kans., with only one stopover.
At the Marine base he had to fill
out forms, giving his personal
hiStory-born in Ashland, KanS.;
age. %; height. 6-foot-1; weight,
$50 pounds, etc. And then he
was measured for uniforms-3O-

inch collar; 10-D shoe.
While his wife works in Wash
ington (she hopes to land an
Office job here). Santee will I'M
dergo IL weeks of strenuous
training in what is known as the
platoon leaders class. After his
graduation from Kansas next
June, he will return to Quantico
as second lieutenant and will
be assigned to more training at
the base school.
The Marine command has
ruled out any competitive run
ming for Santee during his cur

he could not pursue both activi- /
lies with justice to either. Santee
agrees.
