Confusion Marks Quintuplets' Home Five World-Famous Sisters Growing Up NORTH BAY. OIH. (INS) — Contusion and perhaps a little sadness exist today in the home of the Dionne quintuplets. The five world-famous sisters are growing up—and Lt isn’t eagy. Around North Bay the old timers who have watched the progress of the girls since their birth 20 years ago can only watch, sympathetically, as Marie struggles with the decision aa to whether she will, after all. become a nun . . . and as Emilie “meditates" in a convent on what she will do with her life. Everyone grows up, everyone has the problem of facing up to life. But with the quints it is, obviously, a little different. They grew up behind nursery windows, always together. . always under strict surveillance, always aware, after the first innocent days of babyhood, that they were slaters apart—curiosities, tn a sense. To all appearances, it must be stated, the quints are young women of poised maturity. But North Bay wonders whether they can now—after all the guarded, supervised years together? actually pull themselves apart and go their separate ways successfully. Only Papa Oliva Dionne and Mother Elaire might know. And they are close-mouthed French Canadians who say no more than thby. feel they have to. The facts, however, are here: With tears of pathetic farewells, the entire family last November left Marie — always described as “the small one"—at the convent of the Servants of the Blessed Sacrament In Quebec City, to take up novitiate studies and become, eventually, a nun. It was the lift she felt she must have. But last week Marie left the convent suddenly after a homesick exchange of letters and calls with her parents and alters. The other quints Emilie. tvonne, Annette and Cecile, scattered across Canada in schools of their own choice, rushed frantically home.* They are perfectly normal girls. Three of them, Marie and Annette and Yvonne, wear about sise 12 dresses, and the other two are sise H's. They weigh from about 105 for Marie to between 120 and ISO fer the others. < Their glove and shoe sites are about ave4«e: bqlh between and 7. I Socially Vjpeaktng. the quintuplets' experience has been about as average as an August snow in Haiti. They lived their childhood under scientific study and care, as wards oi the British crown. They were tested constantly, both medically and psychiatriealiy, and they saw more of nurses and government officials than of their mother and father. Papa Dionne insists that he "never told them not to have dates." ' i But the Dionne quints never have. They often entertained boy arid girl classmates in the game room in their house at Callander. But they never had individual dates, nor did they seem inclined to. Cecile — labeled by her parent* "the most unpredictable" of the five—is the one -who answered a reporter's question as to what wanted in a man. “He must be nice-looking, well- 1 educated and a real gentleman," she said, and the other girls' agreed that« these were the|r requirements too. If they find such gentlemen, the quints will havja the additional problem of deciding whether or not they are fortune-hunters. Because among them, the girls will split |1,000,000 next year when they are 2i. Each of the young ladies has a

mind of her own when It comet to picking her own career. Yvonne —"the motherly on*,? according to friends—wants to be an artist as an avocation and a nurse as a profession. Cecile also wants to oe a nurse. Annette, who has shown a talent for music since ahe twittered her first tune at the age of three, wants to be a fine pianist. Emilie has indicated an interest in home economics. And Marie — well, Marie knew what she wanted but whatever the reason (••health” was the reason given); she could not carry through with it. What will happen to the Dionne quintuplets, who probably never had any real fun in -life beyond the joy" of being together? Are (hey fated to remain as one of the home grounds of Qntario? Or will one or more of them strike out for independence—and succeed? Next May 28 they will be of age, and they must start deciding. New York Welcomes French Army Nurse Dienbienphu Angel Welcomed To U. S. NEW YORK (INS) — The "Angel of Dienbienphu," French army nurse Genevieve de Galard - Terra u be, arrived in New York tor a heroine's reception and parade today and a tour of the nation as the guest of the U S. congress. The French army nurse, only woman at the Dienbienphu bastion in indo-China which fell after a 57-day siege, arrived at Idlewild international airport aboard an Air France airliner. - - A crowd of well-wishers beaded by Rep. Frances Bolton (R ’of Ohio,) and a great host of news and cameramen, including TV, radio and newsreel men, were on hand. * . ’ The 29-year old nurse, who will be in the United States for three weeks, said wistfully before her deparjure from Paris that she did not want any publicity-— a hope that obviously was doomed. "I really didn’t -do much — only my duty,” said the air force lieutenant. In addition to winning her own country's honors, nurse Genevieve was awarded the. highest honor of the Red Cross for her unflinching ministrations to the Dienbienphu wounded, which ended with her capture by the Communists when Jhe fortress felt. r She is the first French person! to come to the U.S. at the imitation ft, rufigeess hn countryman,' the Marqdis de Lafayette, wag p honored for his heroic idle in the American revolution.
