4 Make First Winter Climb
Of Peri|ous Alpine Wall

KLEINE scHE1DEGG, Swift
zerland, Mar. 13 (AP).-Four
daredevil climbers from Ger
many and Austria reached the
summit Of Eiger Mountain yes
terday on the first-ever winter
ascent Of the perilous mile-high
north wall.
The four who completed the
ascent, after six days and six
nights on the ice-covered wall,
are Toni Hiebeler. Toni Kim
shofer and AndreaS Mannhardt
OF Munich and Walter Aim
berger. Of Austria. Hundreds
watched them through tele-
scopes from this Alpine resort
at the foot of the north face.
The climbers started lats
Monday. working their way
slowly and carefully up the
highest rocky wall in the Alps,
one Of the most dangerous and
difficult climbs in the world.
- Is Lost Lives
At least 1S climbers have lost
their lives trying to beat Eiger's
north face. All previous at
tempts-Austrian Heinrich Har-
rer led the party which first
conquered the wall in 1888
have been made in summer
when rock. ice and snow ava
lanches continually fall down
the almost vertical north face.
There are no avalanches in
winter. when the snowy fields
are frozen and the ice firmly
holds loose rocks in the wall.
But no one has dared tackle
the wall in the bitter winter
cold which saps the strength
and calls for slower climbing
and heavier packs.
Ideal weather favored the
feat Of the victorious fouYsome.
For most Of their stay on the
face the skies remained cloud
less, and rarely is there such
a long run of good weather
ON that wind-swept mountain. I
Slept Standing Up
!. The four spent the first night
in sso-called Difficult Crevice"
in, nylon sleeping bags, stand
ing up and secured to the
ropes. The ensuing five nights
were spent the same way but
atfncreasingly higher attitudes. |
Before retiring" each night
they had a meal Of dried vege-
tables and coffee or tea heated
on a gasoline cooker, and dried
fruit for dessert. They wore
heavy boots with climbing irons,
two pairs Of woolen underpantS
with heavily lined corduroy
trousers, heavy nylon jackets
lined with eiderdown and gloves
with steel claws.
:, They spent last night dug
into snowy patches In q ver-
tical icy couloir (gorge) above
the white Spider" an almost
vertical block Of ice about 1900
feet from the summit. The
spider is about 900 feet high
and the point Of no return.
They passed it Saturday after
noon. This is the most difficult
part Of the wall. Three men
lost their lives there four years
ago.

Job'Conf|ict
LaWsAttacked

Existing conflict-of- interest
laws are "disjointed, overlap
ping, ambitious and improp-
erly focused" says a Senate
subcommittee staff report.
Senator Jackson, Democrat
Of Washington, chairman of
the Subcommittee on National
Policy Machinery, Endorsed the
study and urged that the laws
be overhauled.
They are anachronistic -
addressed In many respects
more to the problems of the
1860s than the 1960s," the
study said. Literal compliance
with the statutes would, in
some cases, lead to absurdities,
SO they are often tacitly ignored
or else circumvented through
casuistry."
Now an Obstacle
Present laws are an obstacle
in recruiting capable people for
defense and foreign policy jobs,
Senator jackson said yester-
day.
In hot war we sweep aside
barriers to national service, I"
he said. But in this time Of
equally fateful cold war we
place needless roadblocks in
the path Of outstanding citi-
zens asked to serve in WASH
ington."
The subcommittee cited one
"absurdity" resulting in a con-
flict-of-interest law applying to
lawyers doing business with the
Government.
"A practicing lawyer who is
also an amatuer art authority
regretfully declined an appoint
as an unpaid adviser to the
Federal Commission of Fine
Arts. Acceptance would argue
ably have required either his
resignation from his law firm
or withdrawal of the firm from
antitrust cases, tax problems
and all other legal work hvolv-
ing the Federal Government. {"
Changes Offered
The report also cited civilian
officials who have had to give
up profitable investments in
order to accept Government
Jobs.
Senator jackson recon-
mended consolidation and up
dating Of the many conflict-of-
interest laws, overhaul of laws
dealing with temporary con-
sultants. modernization Of stat
utes that bar most lawyers from
becoming consultants, amend
ment Of laws making it diff
cult for retired officers to work
for the Government and an in
crease in some top salaries.
The report noted approvingly
that President Kennedy has
named a commissioner to rec
ommend revisions in the con-
flict-of-interest laws and the
Senate Armed Forces Commit
tee has a subcommittee seeking
solution to the stock divest-
ment problem.
Stock DiSpOsals
Secretary Of Defense McNa-
mara was required to sell SIS
million Of stock in Ford Motor
Co.. Of which he had been
president, before taking the top
Pentagon post. Eight years
earlier Charles E. Wilson, for
mer General Motors head, was
obliged to dispose Of $2.5 mil
lion Of GIN stock when called
to the same job.

subcommittee members ap-
peared receptive to the idea
that the public interest would
be Safeguarded sufficiently If
executives made full public dis
closure Of their stockholdings

Rock Greek Woods And Flint Hill Have Been
Named The Best Subdivisions OF The Year

Rock Creek Woods in Kensington
and Flint Hill in Bethesda have been
n9med the best subdivisions of the year
in Montgomery County.
Decision was made by committee
appointed by the Montgomery County
Council. Awards are designed to encour
age land developers to make maximum
use of trees and natural topography in
subdivisions.
First award for best subdivision with
lots averaging less than 10000 went to
Rock Creek Woods on Connecticut ave-,
a half mile southwest of the avenues
future intersection with Viers Mill I'd.
Flint Hill won the award for sub
divisions with lots of more than 10000
square feet but less than an acre in size.
1t is situated just south of River rd., a
third of mile west of Wilson la.
Honorable mention in the 10000 or

larger class went to CRANKY Woods on
Muncaster rd, about two miles northeast
of Redland.
There was no award for subdivisions
larger than an acre in size.
Members of the committee are Off
GERS of seven groups in the county,
Site planning and architecture for
Rock Creek Woods was by Charles M.
Goodman Association, with development
by Bancroft Construction Company.
The committee believes Rock
Creek Woods has been unusually sue
cessful in preserving the natural terrain,
minimizing erosion, conserving trees and
natural growth, and achieving a sense of
serenity and spaciousness not often as
ISOLATED with lots of this size" The lots
average something more than 5000
square feet. There are 70 houses in the
subdivision.

Flint Hill site planning and archi-
lecture was done by Reyes, Lethbridge,
and Condor, with development by Ben
nett Construction Company, Inc. 1t in
cludes AZ houses.
"The lots in Flint HILL" the COM
mittee said, -'have wide variety in
shape and size. The location of each
house on its lot was carefully studied in
order to relate it to the topography, con-
serve existing trees, and achieve pleas
ant outlooks. Monotony and regimenta-
ton have been completely avoided, and
the project has been unusually success
full in meeting the detectives of this COM
petition"
CRANKY Woods with site engin-
eering by R. K. Maddox, and house To-
cation, adaptation of stock plans and de-
velopment by Morris and Shreffler
Builders, Inc. - has 80 houses in its
first section. A second section will have

are located in their woodland setting"
