In The Arctic
Pete came like visiting royalty,
Surrounded by his retinue,- Mak-
pa, Marta and the HBC native
helper, i erkoshak. As a gift he
brought fresh fish arctic char,
a small salmon which is caught
in gill nets at the river mouths
es it comes down from mountain
Takes to the sea after the river
ice breaks up in early July, . , .
Pete skinned and filleted the
fish expertly, and we fried and
ate them with canned butter,
lemon extract and mustard.
Pete's. visit, which had no pur-
pose save that of sociability, was
a twenty -four-hour fete. At
breakfast next day sixteen peo-
ple crowded happily into 'the,.
cook 'tent and three ofus work-
ed constantly at the stoves, turn-
ing out a contnuous stream of
pancakes, bacon and seal liver.
Then, instead of scattering over
the tundra on our daily collect-
ing and observing expeditions,
we all stayed in camp for convey-
cation and games. Pond Inlet
taken over. ,
It took Pete about three hours
to say good.. -by. Finally he went,
but he got only as far as Idlouk's
tent. We followed him there, and
another hour passed, serene, lazy
and pointless. By imperceptible
degrees . Pete got his entourage
On the komatik - and suddenly
they were, off at a gallop ,with-
eut a backward look, But they
didn't get very far. At supper -
time they were still a quarter of
a mile offshore hunting seal
along the big lead. - Prom

TRULY A PIG
The javelina is the only true
wild pig inhabiting the U.S. He
is found in Texas, Arizona, and
New Mexico. Mexico, Central
and South America are the main
stamping grounds of this animal.
Being distantly related to o'tlr
domestic hog, he resembles them
somewhat.' The javelina is a griz-
zy, grayish black in color, with
a light gray band - across his
Shoulder. Due to this band, they
are also called, "collared pec-
cary" by many people. •
HER LAST -Here's dainty French
star Leslie Caron as "Giga", her
First Hollywood movie in two
years. But it's her last, she says,
In pixy, adolescent roles. "I'm
26. 1 should be playing my own
age:" What character does she
want to play? ` A trollop—with
D wallop.

TOOTHLESS'TORREROS-To tell the "tooth" about it, six-year-old
twins Charles and Peter Bane aren't really bull -fighters despite
the matador costumes they are modeling. The twins wore the
costumes at a fashion show. The youngsters got to keep the
bull -fighting regalia, but they'll probably have to wait until
Christmas, naturally, for their missing front teeth.
There's A Quarrel In Every Sport
We hardly think of chess as
a dangerous sport. Yet recently
two players, after a tempestu-
ous, painful clash during a game,
went to law, each accusing the
other of assault.
The row arose over queens.
To pinch your opponent's queen
suddenly is, in the eyes of con-
tinentals, a breath of jealously
observed etiquette. Ordinarily,
at the first threat to your op-
ponent's queen, you warn him
by crying "Guard."
Something similar enters into
cricket. Batsmen, moving out of
their crease at the bowler's end
before the bowler has delivered
the ball, are generally warned.
Some bowlers, of course, whip
off the balls at the first oppor-
tunity, and appeal.
In the chess dispute, tempers
became very heated and ona
player alleged that the other
jumped up, threw the chessboard
in his face and aimed a kick at
his chair. The friendly, placid
game, one of the quietest and
soberest in the word, dissolved
into turmoil.
The magistrate, trying this
amazing case, said that this was
the only known case, in more
than 2,000 years of chess playing,
in which both players had ended
up in hospital.
The truth is: there's a quarrel
in every game if players like
to seek it. Bad losers shed all
sense of proportion. Some be-
come -quite maddened by their
desire for vengeance.
One supposedly tough pitman
in the north of England, for in-
stance, after losing at dominoes,
let defeat rankle in his mind.
He turned to arson for relief.
Fortunately, the canister of
gasoline which he threw through
a Window of his conqueror's
house, and the lighted oil rag
after, did not more than destroy
a single room before the local
fire brigade quelled the out-
break.
Demoniac Grin
A more novel form of ven-
geance was that of a loser in a
checkers match who sacrificed
a beehive to work off his spleen.
He put the hive in a harrow —
it was a stolen one — and set
out to waylay the winner who
lived in a bungalow three streets
away.
Having quietly wheeled the
PUFFING INTO HOBOKEN—Puffing on a cigar and wearing a
:coat draped over her shoilders, London sculptress Fiore de
Henriquez gazes fondly :at her newly completed statue of Sir
Walter Raleigh, upon her arrival ni Hoboken.
hive, some' time after midnight,
to his opponent's gate, he soon
discovered the open bedroom
window.
With a demoniac grin, he heav-
ed in his "bomb," having first
removed its top. Whatever
dreams the two sleepers. .were
entertaining erupted suddenly
into a vicious buzz as the hive
landed plumb on their four-
poster and a swarm of furious
bees poured forth.
Happily, the wife reacted
quickly. Sitting up in bed with
a start, she saw to her horror
bee after bee setting on her
nightie. With a cry of alarm,
she jumped out of bed, rushed
to the window, tore off her
nightie and threw it out, hoping
that the bees would stream after
it. And in that split second she
was just in time to :catch a
glimpse of and recognize the
retreating figure of the man re-
sponsible for this savage attack.
Later, when brought to court,
he was heavily'. fined.
Where perseflal malice is ac-
companied by violence, a very
stiff sentence can be . imposed.
The most disgruntled fellow may
then wish he had accepted de-
feat in a more sporting spirit.
It's no use pleading "action in
the heat of the moment" when
merely a game's result is at
stake.
A Pint
We have all seen the defeated
or disappointed darts players
work off steam by hurling his
three darts at the board. But
ane hot-tempered loser selected
a less orthodox and far tenderer
target.
After buying the victor, very
grudgingly, a pint of beer, be
retreated to the regulation dis-
tance behind the man and then,
as the other stooped over his
tankard, fired a twosome into
the seat of his trousers!
Hardly had the first dart
whizzed home, causing the vic-
tor to gasp in pain, before the
other followed it.
At this the thrower let out
an hysterical yell and bolted for
the door. But fellow darts play-
ers, incensed by this uncalled
for attack, caught him and gave
hism a jolly beating.
• For tantrums, however, few
games can rival lawn tennis.
And the men are worse than
the girls . when things aren't
going their way or when an
.umpire's. decision is in dispute.
Of course, it is all bad sports-
manship; b:ut understandable
enough when the stakes are high.
In .club tennis, ofcourse, there's
not so much excuse for exhibi-
tions of'temper. Yet it is a fact
that a doubtful line decision, or
a lucky netcord, has been known
to nip a friendship in the bud.
Southpaws!
Are children today morelikely
to write left-handed than they
once were? Very definitely,
says Dr. Eric A. Enstrom, a re-
search . consultant who h a s
studied southpaw writers for
the lost eight .years. Fifteen
years ago, the segment of left-
handed writers among children
was only about 5 per 'cent. Now,
Enstrom says, more than 11 per
cent of the children write with
the "other" hand.
Speaking to the Handwriting
Foundation in Chicago, Enstrorn
said that his survey of 92,000
children in 1956 showed that
more boys (12.5 per than
girls are lefties. Teachers used
to force youngsters to write with
the right hand, a tactic believed
to lead to stuttering. At present,
Enstrom says, "they just let them
alone."
