ask anybody anything. She
tells us all of. But she does
not do a thing for herself.
She leaves her own clothing
all over the place. If I didn't
wash and press her dresses
she would wear them until
they fell of.
None Of our children has

the only one who is spoiled
and unmanageable.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
When Terry tells of the
rest Of the family. she really
is demonstrating what she
would like her parents to do
to her. The fear she ex-
presses Of juvenile delin-
quency reveals that she
fears the bad in herself will
take control unless her par
ents exercise a firm hand
to repress it.
A girl of Terry's age
shouldn't depend upon her
mother to take care Of her
clothes. Everytime Mrs. L. NJ.
does it. she is doing Terry a
disservice. She should insist
that Terry keep herself neat
and clean all by herself. She
should have insisted many
years ago that Terry pick
up after herself.
When Terry becomes sell
reliant, she will develop more
confidence in herself. She will
know that she doesn't need to
depend upon her parents to
discipline her. She'll know
from experience that she can
do it for herself.
Terry needs plenty of out
side activities. Very likely her
bullying at home is offset by
great timldity among others
of her own age. At 16, she
should not be so focused on
her family.

REPORTER
A Grandson Finally Arrives

The twins were in their
playpen. They looked up,
blue-eyed blondes with tiny
pony tails, mouths open.
Mommy was saying goodbye.
Daddy was taking her to the
hospital to have another
baby, and the twins felt
vaguely uneasy. Why did she
hold them so tight this par
ticular time? Why the long,
wet kiss. the nuzzling be-
hind the ear?
THEY WATCHED. Mommy
stood up, blew one more kiss
and followed Charlie and the
little valise of clothes out.
Gayle told her sister not to
worry: Lii and I will take
care Of them. They'll be
good"
This is the moment of
trial for millions of young
women. This is the hour
when there is no future, Just
the present. Charlie drove
her up to Holy Name Hos
pital in Teaneck. N. J. The
Sisters Of st. Joseph were
waiting. Sister Canise and
Sister Philomena had been
present when Robin and
Pamela had been born, ex-
actly a year ago.
DR.. Albert Higdon was
waiting too. He knows that
some things start, and then
stop. It's an aggrayating
truth. That is what hap
pened. 1t was like this all
day. Virginia Lee Frechette
put her robe on and walked
the corridor and met other
young women.
Mine has got to be a boy"
said Ginny. Everybody
laughed. tits simply got to.
My father had girls. He
never had a son, so he must
have a grandson. You know
what their vanity is like
when they reach So"
1t was night and the clock
on the wall spun lazily and
silently. Then something
happened. 1t was no maybe
I-imagined-it thing. This
was real.
There was no fright in
Ginny. No panic. This is
fine" she said. Il wouldn't
want to go home and start
all over"
But, before the night was
over, he eyes were wild with
fright and a doctor was sit
ting behind her holding a
cone on her nose, murmur-
ing: IF you'd only breathe
deep as I tell you, you won't
feel the next one" Before
dawn, she heard the doctor
say: Get her husband. I
want to talk to him." and
she thought sadly: This is
what it's like to die. This is
what it's like"
She was wrong. Charlie,
sleeping on a hall bench,
was awakened because the
time was near.
THE SUN CAME up over
Leonia mean and hot.
The nuns walked the cor
ridors in silence. "All right"
Doctor Higdon said softly.

kid sisters make a mess of
our room and when I yell at
them my mother takes their
part. My older brother takes
the car any time he feels
like. Then all of us are stuck
at home and can't 60 any

and says he'd rather watch
TV anyway. Our family is

Meteors Shaped Surface
The panelists expressed vir-
tual certainty that all the
moons major features-its era
ters and "SeaS"-were caused
by impact from meteors over a
period of billions of years. They
ruled out volcanoes as the cause
of craters, and said a recent
report of volcanic activity was
probably the escape of trapped
gas, probably water vapor from
deep inside the lunar rock COW
ering.
The backside Of the moon, as
photographed by RusSia's Lunik
III, showed no startling evi-
dence Of anything different
from what is visable from the
earth. they said. If there are
fewer "seas" on the back side,
as the photos seemed to show,
this is to be expected from a
statistical viewpoint, he added.

By WILLIAM HINES
Star Science Writer

Exploration of the moon is
essential from a scientific point
of view because it is the only
"virgin territory" in the uni
verse that can provide vital
clues to the origin of our solar
system.
This is the consensus of top
American space scientists, as
expressed yesterday after a.
meeting on lunar research
sponsored by the National Aero
nautics and Space AdminiStra-
ton.
Three non-Government au-
thoritieS on the heavens sum-
married the lunar panels con.
culuSions at a news conference
at NASA. 1t was presided over
by DR.. Robert JaStroW. head
of the theoretical division of
NASA's Gaddard Space Flight
Center.
There are few places where
the record of the solar system
is preserved" DR.. JaStrow said
"The earth is rather bad be-
cause it has running water,
which has blurred the record.
The moon has no running wa
ter, no atmosphere. 1t will give
o good record"
Questioned along with DR..
Jastrow were DR.. Harold C.
Urey, Nobel Prize winner from
Scripts Institution, La Jolla,
Calf: DR.. Thomas Gold of Cor
nell University, and DR.. Harri-
son Brown of the California
Institute of Technology.
Was Moon Molten?
Scientists are particularly in
terested, the panelists said. in
knowing whether the moon was
ever completely in molten state.
Study of the moons path might
even yield proof of the existence
of other planetary systems, they
added.
Though NASA officials re-
fused to let the panelists dis
cusS timetables with newSmen,
they were permitted to talk
about general lines lunar re-
search should follow. Telescope
cameras and radiation counters
in a moon orbiting satellite |
would give good initial evidence,
the scientists said.
I'm principle it is possible |
to send instruments to the
moon to analyze the nature of
its surface and telemeter this
information back" DR.. Brown
said. He and his colleagues
made it clear, however, that
eventually it will be necessary
to bring back lunar sample.
A piece of moon material.
DR.. Jastrow said, would look
almost black under normal
earthly illumination.
No Sharp Heights
The scientists knocked down
the popular image of the moon
as a rugged world of sharp
cliffs, tall mountains and
rocky plains. Radar investiga-
ton, according to DR.. Gold, re-
vealS the moons surface to be
made up of pieces of material
no bigger than a mans fist.
Slopes are rather gentle and
plains rather monotonous, he
added.
Much of the surface is COW
cred with fine dust to a depth
Of at least an eighth of an
inch, the scientists said. How
much more than that is a
mystery, however. None would
rule out the possibility that
huge tracts of deep quicksand-
like dust may exist.
The scientists agreed that the
moon is lifeleSs and probably
always has been. For this rea-
son, they said, the question of
