Russians Pay Warn
Departing Am Ik
But Gape At
By ROY ESSOYAN j
MOSCOW, UP) — U.S. Ambassa-j
dor Charles E. Bohlen left Mos- i
cow Thursday on a plane so big |
it made the Russians gasp. He is |
flying to the United States en- j
route to a new assignment as j
ambassador to the Philippines. !
Moscow’s diplomatic, corps over- '
flowed the airport building in a j
farewell tribute to Bohlen’s ack- j
nowledged leadership of the West- j
ern diplomatic colony during his I
four years as ambassador.
The Soviet government sent
only a protocol officer to see Boh
len off, despite a warm tribute
paid the departing envoy Wednes
day night by Communist party
boss Nikita Khrushchev.
Attempt To Hatch Eggs
At South Pole Fails
MEMPHIS, Tenn., UP) — That
great South Pole incubator ex
j periment has ended in failure.
Lt. Robert J. Adams of Mem
phis, a Navy dentist serving at
Little America in the Antarctic,,
has been trying to make South
i Pole history by hatching eggs in
' a home made incubator. He kept
' the home folks informed.
The report Wednesday night,
via ham radio, was that none of
the eggs in several batches ever
■ hatched. Some of them developed
embryos up to the “crucial” 13tn
day—but that was it.
“It was the humidity,” said
Adams. “It just couldn’t be con
trolled.”

i Tribute To
issador Bohlen,
C-124 Globemaster
A giant U.S. Air Force C-124
Globemaster — the United States
biggest troop transport plane
came from Germany to pick up
Bohlen, his family, and eight
other embassy officials. The plane
can carry more than 200 troops.
It was the first trip of a Globe
master to the Soviet capital. The
Russians had never seen a plane
as big as the 90-ton, double-deck
monster and their eyes popped.
Just to bring its size home to
the gaping onlookers, an embassy
official backed a fully loaded
truck up the ramp into the plane’s
belly.
There were no speeches at the
airport, but hundreds of warm
handshakes, some damp eyes and
repeated good wishes.
At a Syrian embassy reception
Wednesday night Kruhshchev put
his arm on Bohlen’s shoulder and
said:
We like a competent ambassa
dor if he comes to a correct con
clusion and sends the right esti
mate to his government.
“We do not understand why
they are taking you away from
us and sending you so far away.
We understand you and you un
derstand us. We hate to see you
go.”
