I recall also the little girl
who proved the old adage.
"While there's life there's
hope" is more than an "old

She was IL years old and
doomed. She was In diabetic

There was no hope.
But not so in her case.

I recall the gibes about
bedside manner" Of some
doctors. They felt that it was
an overrated virtue. Always,
I defended 1t as an important
adjunct in treating the sick.
Good bedside manner means
nothing more than all, or
most, of the following quail
ties in a physician: Tactful-
ness, cheerfulness, sympathy,
sensitivity for the suffering Of
others and the ability to in
spi.re confidence. But, Of
course, being a good doctor, is
the first essential.
l recall the worried and
anxious patients who went
from doctor to doctor in hopes
Of finding relief. Their friends

she prompted O'Hara to inquire
about an appointment for the boy
year ago.
Miss Payne said O'Hara's sec
rotary, Marie Grove, called last
Thursday to read letter from the
patronage committee saying the
appointment had been confirmed.
The next day, Miss Payne said,
O'Hara's office called again to
say that the boy should show up
at 9:45 am. Jan. 26 in room 357,
Old House Office Building. A
third call informed her that book

the job opening until Feb. 1.

he said, while the program, or
ganization methods, and operating
techniques have changed as the re-
suit Of study and understanding
of changing conditions and as nee
essary to meet the needs Of a rapid
ly growing organization"
He said the greatest influence
in Scouting's growth "has been
the dedicated service of laymen
willing to invest their time, their
energy, and their money in the
interest of training youth to do
their duty to God and to preserve
and strengthen our heritage and to
develop a nation so that it may
be spiritually, Dramatically, and
mentally strong and morally
straight"
Calling camping the heart of the
Scouting program, the Chief Scout
Executive points out that current
and anticipated growth would re-
quire additional camp sites and
facilities. He warned that good
camp sites are getting scarcer.

chile" by Arthur Miller at the
Masonic Temple on February IA,
1859 at z pm. This play and it's
author have been the source Of
much controversy.
The story of THE CRUCIBLE
tells how small lies - childrsn's
lies - build and build until q
whole town is aroused and 19
men and women go to the gallows
for being possessed of the devil.
The story focuses upon q young
farmer, his wife, and young ser
want girl who maliciously causes
the wife's arrest for witchcraft.
The farmer brings the girl to court
to admit the lie. The trial is a
thrilling, bloodcurdliVg, terrifying
scene as it depicts the Donstrous
course of ignorance, bigotry, and
deceit. The farmer, instead of saw
ing his wife, finds HIMSELF also ac-
cused, imprisoned md condemned.

ABOARD RESEARCH YES
Sci VIENNA. July 81 (AP -
Four United States research
vessels have just completed the
first survey for what promises
TO be one Of the great science
adventures of the century.
A hundred and fifty miles
out in the Atlantic Ocean north
OF Puerto Rico, they have beer
looking for a place to drill q
hole through the earth's crust.
The hole is expected to an
swer such age-old questions as
what the inside Of the earth is
really made Of. 1t will go all
the way down TO the mantle
the thick band Of rock sur
rounding the earth's molten in
ner core.
The drilling scheme has been
dubbed the Mohole Project be-
cause the hole is to pierce a
layer within the earth called
the, moho. The Mohole will be
bored beneath the sea since the
earth's crust is thinner below
the ocean than on land.
Still, the hole will have to bt
several miles deep. And, it will
have to be drilled beneath
miles-deep water-a feat never
attempted before.
For several weeks I have beer

and at a vital, little-known
frontier of science-the explo-
ration Of the ocean depths.
The survey was directed by
the Vema'S chief scientist, DR.,
John E. Nafe. The other re-
search ships taking part were
the Gibbs, from the Hudson
Laboratories, q Navy laboratory
operated by Columbia; the
Bear, from the Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institution, and
the Hidalgo, from Texas A. &
M. College.
Ocean Bottom Studied
The four ships employed all
the devices of modern oceanog-
raphy for studying the ocean
bottom. There was no drilling:
gear for drilling in deep oceanic
water does not yet exist.
The survey covered an area
Of the Atlantic known as the
outer ridge, where the water is
ga miles deep and the earth's
crust is nearly three miles
thick. A possible drilling site

tary posts are closed.
The so-called skeleton bill
being considered by the Senate
committee contains only two
provisions: To extend the life
Of the commission, and to re-
quire preservation Of election
records.
The strategy Of Senate lead
ers seems to be to get a limited
bill out Of committee and let
the Senate determine its ANAL
scope.

be made after data from both
the Atlantic and Pacific surveys
have been analyzed-a matter
of six months study.
I found ocean research faS-
cinating-and no game for the
seasick- prone, or anyone afraid
to wet his hands on deck.
Ships Are Rough Riding
Oceanographers work chiefly
from small. rough-riding YES
sells; big ships cost too much.
Quarters are cramped. Heavy
gear must be put over the side
and retrieved, and high explo-
siveS handled on pitching, toss
ing, slippery decks in all sorts of
weather at any hour of the day
or night.
Since there is never a mo-
ment when data is not being
gathered, everyone on board
ocean research vessels works,
even visitors. I stood a regular
daily watch in the Vema'S in
Strument lab. monitoring the
depth recorder and other in
strumentS. I helped move am
munition and manned a hydro
phone or recorded shots during
seismic shooting.
The Vienna, somewhat larger
than most oceanographic ships.
is a 202-foot three-masted iron
auxiliary schooner built as a
yacht in 1923. Columbia Uni
versity'S oceanographic re-
search unit, the Lamont Geo.
logical Observatory, bought her
in 1858.
The Vienna carries a party of
II to Is scientists and tehni-
clans plus a crew of 10. Most
of the scientists sleep in mar
row hunks, installed when the
Vienna was a merchant marine
training ship during World
War II.
Good Food is Comfort
For entertainment the ship

cloud shapes drift across the
