Veteran Climber Scales Peaks

SPRINGS, Colo., John D. Graham

COLORADO

Sept. 5 (INSt juim ij. oroiiaui of Santa Barbara. Cal., has completed his self-appointed task of climbing all mountains in the United States with elevations of

more than 14,000 feet.

There are 67 of them listed. Graham thought he had scaled all the giants, but a recent survey added Grizzly Mountain, near Aspen, Colo. So he returned to Colorado to add the climb to

his achievements.

Each of the 67 peaks he has

climbed has a certain character to the veteran mountaineer. He has climbed 52 mountains in Colorado, 14 in California, and one in Washington state. The 14,254-foot North Palisade, near Big Pine, Cal., is remembered by Graham as most difficult, Mount Rainier. Washington’s 14,408-foot peak, most interesting, and Maroon Peaks near Mount Rainier, the Palisade Peaks and Wyoming’s Tetons, his favorites. Graham told why he considered North Palisade the most diffi-

cult.

He climbed the mountain up the north side, after crossing

climbed as many as three 14,000 foot peaks in one day. Ten years ago, with a group of six Colorado climbers, he tried to climb all the 14,000-foot peaks on the Pacific Coast in one month. Filipino Refuses to Reveal Sources

j Philippine Newspaper Guild President. Cipriano Cid. The group offered to petition Philippine President Elpidio Quirino for “Parazo’s release, charging violation of press freedom by the Supreme Court. However, Parazo refused the

offer.

Wearing an over-sized, prison garment and answering only to his number during roll call, Parazo finished out the term. After his release he issued a press statement declaring: "I bear no ill-feeling toward the Supreme Court majority who sent me to jail to wear the garb of a criminal. The trouble was that they did not quite realize the dangerous implications of their farreaching decision, which renders freedom of the press an illusive mirage. “To me as a newspaperman, freedom of the press should be real, because it is a sacred doctrine ...” Parazo’s case has been placed before the United Nations.
