should recognize, however,
that Roberta's problem is
somewhat separate and is not
as strongly influenced by Mr..
F. LIS behavior as they be-
lieve.
Roberta's concern about
winning friends and a hus-
band Is q normal teen-age
anxiety. 1t is q problem she
alone win have to solve, and
she should realize that even
teen-agers with very friendly
fathers and parents who have
an active social life suffer
from this anxiety. They sim
ply go to work at solving the
problem as well as they can.
In America the best of
fathers do not find dates and
husbands for their daughters.
The few who attempt to do
so usually meet with failure
because the m ajority a of
young men resent pressure of
this kind from their seniors.
Mrs. F. L. seems to be en-
couraging her daughter to
place blame for her failure
on her father. Possibly Mrs.
F. L. is trying to use this sit
uation as q weapon against
her husband.
But she is doing Roberta q
great disService. As long as
the girl can put the blame on
somebody else she will not 60
about solving her problem.
Her tears deserve little SYM
pathy and should not be en-
couraged.
Roberta should be told in
no uncertain terms that she
must dry her eyes. screw up
her courage and get out and
rustic up those friends. If
she learns to make herself
well liked, her friends won't
notice her father very much.

TREASURES FOR THE TAKING
Two SteoIthy Hunters
Find Pieces Of Eight

q half. sent . sharp thrill
through my bones. For all
my past successes, each search
for treasure is a new adven-
ture to me. This one was
made doubly exciting because
we were seeking our treasure
by stealth. Should the owner
Of the island discover us, We
would be run out Of the Car
ibbean.
/ grabbed my Kaleidoscope
and began to adjust it for q
low-meter reading. Before ]
could do this, however. the
arrow jumped to the end Of
the meter and the earphones
began buzzing. We were
standing right on top of
something!
Bill and I each grabbed q
spade and began to dig furi-
ously. About 80 inches down
we came upon some human
rib bones and two skulls.
/ explained to Bill that 1t
was common practice among
pirates to murder the crew
members who helped bury
the treasure.
Suddenly my spade struck
something hard. I scraped
Of some sand and debris and
found eight objects which
resembled charred fireplace
logs. Each was 2 feet long,
8 inches in diameter and
about IS pounds in weight.
Loot Identified
Bill grabbed a machete
and split one Of the logs"
partially open. Inside we
could see the glitter Of coins.
/ Immediately spotted the
Bourbon coat of arms on one
of them and identified the
loot as Spanish pieces Of
eight.
We jubilantly lugged the
treasure back to the yacht
and began opening each
packet. We found no jewels
or ornaments. but the logs"
were rich with coins-most
Of them Spanish pieces of
eight but also q few Spanish
reales, Portuguese moidores
and German thalers. In all,
there were 1900 Of them.
Next morning we went
back to the Imine"-and
the Kaleidoscope meter once
again gave the highest read
ing. Thorough triangulation,
I calculated that the 200 bars
Of silyer--the real prize-lay
more than IL feet below the
surface.
Bill had gone OF for a half
hour. scouting around the
island. He came running back
with word that q government
motor launch was approach
ing Cayo Paule from the
other side.
Feeling as though we had
been caught raiding the
Spanish mint, we quickly
shoveled dirt back into the
hole, smoothed it over and
hurried back to the yacht.
We sped back to West Palm
Beach, diyied up the spoils
and plotted our next move.
Now. after having laid
low" for several weeks, we're
ready to go back. For both
of US are af1icted by that
most pleasant Of all agonies
the unyielding. irrepress-
ible force which draws us to
the search for lost treasure.

Bill had his own cruiser

pany him on q search. We
decided on Cayo Paule Is
land which, according to my
research, was the site Of 200
bars Of buried silver.
On reaching the island, we
skirted the coast and soon
found a place where the pi-
rates had careened their
frigates-tilted them side
ways along the beach for re-
pair purposes. Old ship irons,
ballast stones and part Of a
sled used to slide q ship into
shallow water were among
the evidence we found of the
pirates presence.
My studies had told me
that this was one Of the Ca

JOHN STARK

Every summer hundreds Of
boating accidents occur ali
across the country-and as
often as not it is up to some
passer-bg to come TO the
rescue.
One such incident occurred
recently in Long Islands
Southold Bay where three
men and a boy were trolling
from a small boat. When =
sudden swell capsized the
boat, the four were left cling
ing to It's bottom in cold,
choppy water.
It was at this point that q
Brooklyn man. Danny Scheif-
ter. pulled along side in a
rowboat; but because Of the
small size Of the rowboat only
two Of the endangered fisher
men could be taken aboard.
All Were Rescued
While all four fishermen
were eventually rescued, the
necessary refusal Of Mr..
Scheifter to try to help all
of those in trouble suggests
an interesting point about
which q number Of inquir-
les have been received.
This is the question of
how much legal obligation
there may be upon q by
stander to help somebody
who is in serious trouble or
danger.
Let's say. for example, that
you are out taking a Sunday
afternoon hike. You ap-
proach q railroad right-of-
way and as you come near
the tracks you see q fast
freight bearing down on q
man walking the ties.
He is obviously unaware
Of the trains approach. May
be he is deaf. In any case,
there is plenty Of time for
you to warn the man Of his
peril. Instead you stand by
indolently while the track
walker is demolished by the
freight.
OF what offense are you
guilty?
Moral Guilt
Generally speaking, the
answer is that your guilt is
moral. But you have COM
mitted no legal offense. In
other words, there is no duty

her. That still wasn't enough so
this year he was asked to paint
her house. A job that could be

Federal Judge Joseph c. Nc

The decision represents q VIC

Judge McGarraghy originally

the former owner Of the Wheel
ing Downs Race Track should
be decided in West Virginia,
not in the District, as requested
by Mr.. Wasserman.
But the United States Court

that both issues must be de-
cided in the same trial. Judge

'GI Who Fled
War for French
Girl Is Seized

SAINT QUENTIN, France,
Mar. 26 GA 36-year-old
former soldier who fed the
United States Army in 1914 to
live q secluded life with a dark
haired French girl will be tried
by United States military au-
thorities on wartime desertion
charges.
The maximum penalty fac
ing ex-Pvt. Wayne Powers. a
native of Missouri, is death.
French authorities who are still
holding him said yesterday they
believe there are circumstances
that should move any mans
heart.
Among them the French list
i've healthy children fathered
by Powers during his IA years
with Yvette Beleuse, who
worked in q cotton mill at
nearby Mont d'Origny while
her husband cooked, changed
the children's diapers and kept
the house clean.
He never left the house in
daytime. although everybody
in the village seemed to know
their secret.
Arrested Saturday
Powers was arrested by
French police Saturday. All
Villagers staunchly deny that
any Of them denounced him.
The story captured the heart
and imagination Of the French
press, where q good romance is
worth far more than a good
political crisis.
"She gave him q first wom-
ans smile after months of
murderous combat" wrote the
mass circulation France-Soir.
He deserted the Army, but
was loyal to a woman" wrote
one newsman who made his way
to the village near the Belgian
border to interview Yvette.
Yvette and the children wept
when Powers was led away by
gendalmes who looked away not
to show embarrassment.
Give us back Papa" cried
the children.
Hoping for Help
II hope President Eisenhower
can help u.s." sobbed Yvette.
AFTER all. he is a grandfather.
He should know"
Powers has learned French
and Yvette and the children
easily communicate in English
with a Missouri accent.
"All I want is to be like every
other mother of Monte
d'Origny," Yvette told news
men. Just to be able to walk
Sunday down the main street
with him and the children, like
everybody else"
