Viennese Girls Warned Against Matrimonial Ads The Associated Press) VIENNA, March 23-Vienna girls are being warned not to be misled by marriage advertisements from America. Half dozen alleged cases of deception that are cited by Der Morgen which asserts they are "but a few out of hundreds" in which Austrian women have gone to America to marry. One case described is that of a daughter of a "high official" who answered an advertisement in a Vienna paper stating that an engineer in Chicago desired to wad a pretty educated Viennese.

In GerI man the word engineer always means a professional title and is never applied to mechanics. When she arrived she found the man was a metal worker. He soon lost his job and the girl's parents, had to sacrifice even their household goods to send her money to return. Another instance is in which the advertisement contained the phrase "An American (dark) wishes to marry, etc." The prospective groom was a negro. Usually, says the paper, the advertisements describe the man as earning so many million crowns a month which the woman finds to mean virtually nothing in American standards.

CLIMBS FUJI IN MID WINTER (By The Associated Press) TOKIO, March -Major Orde Lees, parachute expert and antaretic explorer and if. Crisp, both of the British Air mission in Japan. are the first climbers ever to reach the summit of Mount Fuji in midwinter. Major Orde Lees is an experienced alpinist but the performance was rendered remarkable owing to the fact that Mr. Crisp is a Londoner with no former experience of mountain climbing.

Mt. Fuji is 12,365 feet high. The climb necessitated sleeping for two nights in a hut at feet, The snow extended. from the summit down to 2500 feet. The last 1000.

feet below the summit consisted of solid ice. This portion of the climb occupied nine hours. The summit was reached at 7 p. m. February 12.

The whole of the descent was made in a dense fog during the night. A violent storm raged all through the first night. Including rests the climb and descent occupied exactly 48 hours. A record barograph was carried throughout the expedition. The climbers state that the cold at the top of the -Mountain at night was not severe.

They had the misfortune to lose: their entire equipment. cameras: spare clothing, Thermos flasks, snow-hoes and all their food through, "caching" it at a height of 10,000 feet and being unable to find it in the fog and darkness on the way down. In spite of going without food for twelve hours they arrived in splendid condition at their starting place, Gotemba. No guides, coolies, horses or vehicles were employed other than a small sledge, made from a crashed airplane on which the climbers putted their equipment to the sleeping hut. Maj.
