one of the many attractive stars of the underwater ballet featured

Yonmg Brothers Perish
In Parsonage Fire
SKAMOKAWA, Wash., IB'—Two
young brothers perished and four
other members of their family
were burned seriously in a fire
that destroyed their home in this
little Columbia River town early
Saturday.
Dead are Terry Lentz, 8, and
Stevie Lentz, 6. Their parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Harry Lentz, a third
brother, Garry, 12, and a nephew,
Kenneth, 15, leaped from a second
story window wiih their night
clothing in flames to escape.
The family lived in the Skamo
kawa Methodist Church parsonage
which is rented as a dwelling
. since the church does not have a
full-time pastor.
Occupants Of Stalled C ar
Saved From Freezing By
Curious Phone Operator
FAIRBANKS, (A>)—1Three per
sons whose car stalled in 30 degree
below zero cold had a close call
Saturday on, the Fairbanks-Ne
nana trail. They could thank a
curious telephone operator for
their survival.
Glenn Hausley and Edward
Larson, both of Fairbanks, and a
Mrs. Evans of Nenana were in the
car when it stalled midway on
the 60-mile wilderness trail.
Hausley walked 20 miles over
the snow in the bitter cold to a
deserted Alaska Railroad station
at Bergs Siding. He found a rail
road telephone but nobody would
answer his call to the closed Ne
nana station. Finally an Alaska
Communication System telephone
board operator answered the call
from the deserted station out of
curiosity.
The operator alerted Roy De
laney of the Civil Air Patrol at
Nenana. He organized a rescue
party which set out on the primi
tive road in two cars. The party
found Hausley frost-bitten but
not seriously harmed at Bergs
Siding and then continued on to
pick up the two passengers in the
stalled car—suffering from the
cold but unharmed.

Astronomy ^ otes
By OLAF HALVERSON
Mars appears to be so far ad
vanced in its life history that
areas of permanent water are
very limited. Markings of Syrtis
Major, a well known region, ap
pear to be vegitation rather than
water.
The surface of Mars appears to
be more smooth than either of
the earth or the moon.
The most favorable opposition
of Mars, or when that planet is
at the minimum distance of 35
million miles from the earth, can
take place only in August and
September.
Our next constellation in the
zodiac for us to study is Pegasus,
the flying horse, made by four
bright stars arranged like a
square. It is seen in the south
west soon after sunset.
After you have found Pegasus,
go a little farther to the right and
down for a group of stars called
Aquarius. The Egyptians believed
that Aquarius poured water into
the Nile.
