God is put on the waiting list

No wonder things are so topsy

"Be not deceived, God 10 not

me, but | will not answer them;

Landon had the best record

the worst, Alt. Landon has
won two games over good teams
to justify its ranking. but the
PantherS have won a couple
of upset victories and will be
hoping for another today.
The big reason for Priory's
surge in the tournament after
q poor season is the return of

to be a regular this year. He
had polio last summer, and
later injured his shoulder. He
played only two games in the

Antarctic
Explorer
Is Speaker

Navy Capt. Finn Rome,
just back from the Antarctic,
yesterday gave congressional
wives a look at the most
desolate sport on earth"
The captain was both SCI
entific and military COM
mander Of the United States
Ellsworth Station, 720 nau-
tical miles from the South
Pole. for a year.
The veteran polar explorer
ran through an array of un-
usual facts and figures.
He said, in the isolated
spot, 80 men averaged 400
cups of coffee a day-the
largest mammals in the world
live on plankton-the food
was excellent (fresh bread
every morning)-and that
his phone calls home were
usually made between 8 and
$3.50 am.
Ice 400 Years Old
On the scientific side, he
described the Antarctic as
still in the grip of the Ice
Age. The affable captain
pointed out that the North
Pole is 10000 feet deep, sur
rounded by water, whereas
the South Pole 10000 feet
high, surrounded by land.
Temperatures there have
been recorded at 102 degrees
below zero and 81 below at
Ellsworth.
In their studies, they found
ice 100 feet beneath the sur
face to be 70 years old and.
at 500 feet. ice probably was
formed in the 18th Century.
Also described was a little
known phenomena of peculiar
whistles. chirps and frog
pond sounds" attributed to
upper air activities.
These sounds are thought
to be reflected "harmonies"
of electrical storms whose
echoes" howl like the toot
of a passing locomotive. They
are believed to originate in
the opposite hemisphere, to
be transmitted to a receiving
station and to follow the
earth's invisible lines of force
in travelling through space.
They are part of the static
that disrupts radio reception.
Isolation is Wearing
Queried about the friction
and animoSity that was re-
ported to have existed in the
expedition. he answered, Let
sleeping dogs lie"
The two-time congressional
medal of honor winner did
acknowledge all the men are
put through physical and
psychological tests before
being accepted. But, he added,
Man in civilization and man
in isolation are two different
things. Isolation CRATES on
the nerves Of some people"
The explorer, who will re-
tire April /, was asked about
his plans. to which he
quipped. Probably I'll dig
ditcheS."
