The National Association Of

posed today Senator Kefauver's
bill providing special restric-

Thomas M. Ferrill. ir.. patent

said, I'VE believe there are rea-
sons Of the most compelling
nature why this bill should
never become law.
However well intentioned
are its aims, its provisions sub

Why we like wet girls

Yeager says, 'FMarilyn Monroe or
Liz Taylor in a dry dress makes a
mans heart beat fast, but a wet
dress - adrenaline!"
There is one cardinal rule for
dunking an actress. ''It must be in
good taste, "saysP photographer Don
Omit, who took some Of the
pictures ON these pages. "a wet
dress = HE plaster On . wan. IL
reveals every contour, but dis
eTeetly."
Many movie newcomers today
rebel against studio orders to get
dunked. Some have even stated
that this old tradition IS undigni6ed
and silly. But it's a Hollywood tru-
ism that the girl who refuses to get
wet for publicity is likely to be left
high and dry. -RhS

or Actors Studio prefer to face
the Pacific In leOtards. Bikinis
are usually worn only by foreign
actresses with long blond hair who
never get wet.
The latest advance, as illustrated
here, IS a touch of surrealism -
girls splashing around in evening
gowns, perched ON stools IN the
surf, even trying to ride water
logged bicycles.
Director Richard Quine has now
taken it all one logical step farther:
in each Of his movies he tries to
see to it that an actress gets soaked
on the screen.
Why does the public like wet
girls? Mel Traxel, a Columbia stu
dio photographer who estimates
that he has photographed 400 wet
starlets, says: ga girl in a dry dress
is just that "a girl in a dress. But
a girl IN a wet dress is like a statue.
Everything is nodded to her6gure."

Greely's party made their
way toward civilization by
foot and Whaleboat. They
were often lost among the
icebergs. So vital became
knowledge of their actual po-
sition, so dangerous if ad-
verse, Greely got Israel to
withhold monday calcula-
tons from the others. Not
once did Israel betray this
trust.
The starving group was
abandoned for yet another
winter before rescue ships
could break through the ice
floes. During this last tragic
winter, in a makeshift shel
ter, as food dWindled, ISrael
read aloud, to sustain morale,
by the murky light of a sea-
blubber lamp. Greedy wrote.
Israel is suffering excess
lively from our unaccuS,Cmed
privationS, but he refrains
from any utteranceS in the
nature of complaints.
Starvation progressed as
rationS dWindled. Talk turn
ed constantly to food. One
soldier recorded a daydream
in his diary, listing in detail
the elaborate menu of a
luncheon he hoped some day
to tender in Washington in
honor of three comrades. One
of the three named was Is
rael.
Tough Indian-fighters died
one by one. Greely noted that
Israel was perishing and fed
him slightly more than his
meagre ration. Nobody OBJ

feet experiments, though
tedious, and involving expo
sure and suffering, were
most fortunately and success
fully conducted"
In the long Arctic nights,
during three years of isola-
ton, Israel aided morale by
lecturing on science and the
historic value of their Sacri-
fices. He coached men on
mathematics and instrument
work. He even gave divert
ing lectures on life in Michi-
gan. Cheerful but mild-man-
nered, Israel adjusted to a
mixed and tough group, un-
der tense conditions, and
helped alleviate friction and
boredom despite his status as
the youngest member. Greely
and the expeditionary physi-
clan sought Israel as a chess
partner.

Saga Of Jewish

For First Time
By MILTON FRIEDMAN

WASHINGTON (JTA)-The saga of young Jewish
scientist who gave his life almost 80 on United
States Army volunteer mission similar in daring to that
now contemplated the "astronaus has been revealed

farther toward the North
Pole than anyone had gone
before. Israel, the expedi-
TONS only scientist, gathered
data still in use today.
Six of the 25 members sur
vived. Freezing and starving
to death on the Polar ice, IS
rael painfully recorded each
day his meteorological, tidal,
and magnetic observations.
ISraels role in the Greely
Expedition was inadvertently
revealed when A. L. Todd, a
biographer, recently re-
searched dusty archives and
diaries for a book on Gen.
Adolphus w. Greedy, Civil
War veteran, frontierSman,
and pioneer Arctic explorer.
Apart from praise by Gen.
Greely, Israel and other mar
tyrs of the expedition receiv-
ed no official Government
recognition. The Government
forgot those who volunteered
and died on the first system
attic and scientific study of
the North Pole area. Perhaps
the Todd book, Abandoned"
will stimulate belated recog-
milton.
Although decorated by for
eign governments, even Gen.
Greely was ignored by Wash
ington until 1885 when Gen.
Billy Mitchell, Air Force pi-
oneer, fought Congress to get
the aged explorer a Congress
sional Medal of Honor.
The Greely Expedition was
the American contribution to
the worlds first cooperative
international scientific en-
deavor. 1t was known as the
international Polar Year
1881" Russia, Britain, France,
Germany, Japan, and other
nations participated.
Vilhjalmur Stefansson, one
of the greatest living Arctic
explorers, has deplored the
failure of history to give Gre
dit to Greely and his follow
ers, like Israel, who contrib
uted ito the pride we feel in
men who under the supreme
test rose to moral heights"
Israel was described by
Greeley as the benjamin" of
the expedition, the beloved,
youngest of the brotherhood
that emerged in three years
of Arctic isolation and agony.
Greely wanted the best
available scientist to accom-
pany him. He needed accu-
rate, round-the-clock data on
tides, ice formation, precipi-
tation, water and air temper
atures, barometric readings,
cloud formation, wind veloci-
ty and direction, magnetic
declination, and other obSer-
vations. The u. S. Army
wrote to leading universities.
Princeton University knew
of no one willing to risk haZ-
ards of "Such an out of the
way place." The University
of Wisconsin wrote Greely
that perhaps someone else
could supply an Arctic Volun-
teer because it could not.
A favorable reply came
from the University of Mich
igan which wrote Greely that
Israel, %, IAN unusually
Drlgnt man, member OF our
senior class has signified
his willingness to CO."
The Israel family was in
the dry goods business in

ther was dead. His mother,

fears but finally gave her
blessing.
