SOCIETY

DECATUR GARDEN CLUB GOES TO CHICAGO In the short span of five years since its inception, the Chicago world flower and garden show, held at McCormick place, has earned widespread acknowledgement as the nation’s foremost flower and garden show. It is recognized as the number one show from the standpoint of attendance, the area it utilizes (more than 200,000 square feet), the superior caliber of its gardens and floral exhibits, and the meaningful values of its many featurei Unlike expositions of other types, a flower show is a mass creative effort. All of the garden, all of the exhibits, and many of the features are created solely for the show planned and executed for the one show only, and this requires, and gets, the active participation of pec pie of many skills, people who are outstanding in their respective fields. Thus, the show brings into play scape designers, builders, artists, the talents of flower growers, landarchitects, florists, nurserymen and a broad array of other highly skilled specialists. The planning and execution of a show of magnitude and meaning is a continuous process. Even before hte close of the 1963 exposition, the staff and many others will have begun planning fat an even greater show in 1964. Loear women who made the trip by bus to attend this flower show were the Mesdames Wiliam Affolder, John Baumann, Charles Beineke, N. A. Bixler, Henry Heller, Bert Haley, Herman Heiman, John Henderline, Hoffman, Amos Ketchum, Kreps, Grover Levy, Mary Lynch, Wesley Lehman, Don Lutes, Cletus Miller, G. D.

While Miss Keeler tarried in Madrid, Parliament members in London continued to inquire about her case. One implied that Britain’s security might be involved. The model had dropped from sight two weeks ago, shortly before her former boy friend, John Edgecombe, was sentenced to seven years in jail for shooting at her through an apartment door. She said she had known nothing about the search for her. Monday in London, Scotland Yard said no warrant for Miss Keeler was out. The British Foreign Office reported sending no instructions about her to the embassy in Madrid. But George Wigg, an opposition Labor party member of Parliament, said he was not satisfied that the full story of the model’s disappearance had been told. Wigg first raised the question in the House of Commons last Thursday. Minister of War John Profumo, in a statement the next day, said he knew the young model, had met her a few times but that there had been "no impropriety.” Profumo is married to actress Valeries Hobson.

Pair Survive 48 Days On Yukon Mount WHITEHORSE, Yukon (UPI)— An adventuresome girl from Brooklyn and a husky California mechanic related from their hospital beds today the incredible account of 48 days spent on a frozen Yukon mountainside with only the Bible for inspiration and melted snow for subsistence. “We never gave up hope. We lived from day to day, hoping someone would come,” said Helen Klabtn 21. Miss Klaben and Ralph Flores, 42, of San Bruno, Calif., disappeared Feb. 4 on a flight from Whitehorse to Seattle, Wash-, aboard Flores’ single-engine plane. Two weeks ago they were given up as dead. Bush pilot Charles Hamilton spotted the couple’s “SOS” scrawled in the snow as he flew over the frigid wasteland Sunday, then saw Miss Klaben frantically waving near a lean-to constructed from the small planes wreckage. Notifies Indian Trappers Hamilton notified two Indian trappers who raced to the area by dogsled. The Indians picked up Flores four miles from the crash scene as he hobbled toward what he thought was the sound of a power saw. Hamilton, meanwhile, directed Royal Canadian Mounted Police to the scene. Flores, the father of six, and Miss Klaben were airlifted to Watson Lake in northern British Columbia, then transferred to a Canadian Pacific Airlines DC6B for the flight to Whitehorse—largest city in the Yukon. Dr. Neste James, attending the couple at Whitehorse General Hospital, said today their condition was “remarkably good.” Miss Klaben was being treated for a broken right arm and injuries to her feet, one infected with gangrene. Flores had several fractured ribs, and leg injuries and facial lacerations. Calls Ordeal “Horrible” - “It was horrible,” Miss Klaben told newsmen in her hospital room. “We didn’t know from day to day when one of us might make up and find the other dead.” Miss Klaben was returning to the United States after working for the U.S. Bureau of Land Development in Fairbanks, Alaska, when the crash happened during a blinding snowstorm. She had agreed to share the expense of the flight with Flores. Flores, a Spanish-American, was traveling to California to visit his family. He had been working as a mechanic at a Distant Early Warning (dew-line) station in the Canadian north. They said they had been living off the land in the seven weeks since the crash. The aircraft carried little or no survival gear and little food, but Miss Klaben was carrying five suitcases of clothing which Canadian air force officials said probably kept the couple alive. Had Little Food Their only food was two cans of sardines, two cans of fruit salad, a container of tuna fish and some soda crackers- This they ate during their first week on the isolated mountainside. “When that was gdne, we lived on melted snow,” Miss Klaben said. “I can still taste the sardines. I used to hate them, but now I love them. I feel wonderful. It was a miracle.. .I’m so happy I could cry.” The girl, who quit her job with a Madison Ave. advertising agency last August and set off for Alaska with a girl friend, lost 30 pounds during her ordeal. She now weighs about 110. Flores was reported to have dropped from 180 pounds to 140. He amazed rescuers when he walked into the hospital here under his own power. He described Miss Klaben as “a very courageous girl.”*

TWO CONFEREES (Continued from Page One) during the next two years. It lost, n 2T Plan Voted Down Next came an adjusted gross income plan, with a flat 4 per cent rate, which Kizer said would have produced $464 million. It failed to pass by a 25-24 vote. Kizer then offered his third amendment which called for increase in exemptions on gross income taxation from the present SI,OOO to $3,000. The bill was the Democrats’ price for helping the Republicans get the increased gross income tax bill passed. This amendment was adopted 41-8 and shortly afterwards, 14 Democrats joined 14 Republicans in sending the compromise bill to the House and thence to the conference committee. Hie Republicans were frank in saying their support of the increased exemption amendment was given with the expectation it would make the bill unpalatable to the representatives. “Without this amendment, the House might concur in this bill. I urge the majority to join Senator Kizer if for no other reason than to get a vehicle on its way,” president pro tern D. Russell Bontrager, R-Elkhart, said. Sen. Jack Mankin, D-Terre Haute, also said that the bill "is not what I would have liked to have.” "But when I was home over the weekend I found the thing people most wanted was for us to get out of here,” he said. He said the bill "recognizes the importance of exemptions.” Bill Termed ‘Laughable’ Sen. Von Eichhorn, D-Uniondale, who termed the bill “laughable,” complimented the warring factions in the Senate, however for finally having one day of good discussion on tax measures. He suggested if the lawmakers wanted to continue with the gross income tax—the only one like it among the 50 states—they restore jt to its original 1933 form and remove the amendments added in the intervening yearsWith taxes and budget out of the way for the present, the Senate turned its attention today to House-passed bills on he Senate chamber. By a "gentlemen’s agreement” 58 bills left over from the regular session ending March 12 are eligible for passage in the special session, which began 10 hours later. Lt. Gov. Richard Ristine said not all of the bills would be called down, however. Some no longer are backed by their original sponsors. In addition, he said a tew would be needed as vehicles for expected reapportionment legislation. Reapportionment Not Forgotten This subject is still alive, but behind the scenes in the hands of a committee—also left over from the regular session. Hus conference committee met late Monday to review plans for an immediate reapportionment bill. Later Sen. Roy Conrad, R-Mon-ticello, said the group hopes to be

able to place a reapportionment bill on Governor Welsh’s desk “by the end of the week.” Conrad and Sen. William Christy, D-Ham-mond, and Reps. Lowell Smith, R-New Castle, and Joseph G. Bruggenschmidt, D-Tell City, plan to confer again, probably today. They said a constitutional amendment, to accompany the immediate reapportionment bill, still is the aim of the committee. If this session fails to produce a reapportionment plan satisfactory to the federal courts, the state faces the possibility of forced apportionment.
