The sight of trees and some big, juicy steaks were the chief yearnings of Joseph Rucker and Willard Van Der Veer, cameramen, after spend- ing two years on a desert of ice. Trees they saw in New Zealand. But apparently the Antipodes can not produce the equal of an American steer. “We're still waiting for steak,” Van Der Veer said. Life in the Antarctic was not as monotonous as one might think, the cameramen said. “There was something going on all the time,” Van Der Veer ex- plained. *“We had the weekly broad- casts, which were great, we had the radio all the time and we had mevies, and now and then we would organize amateyr shows.” Mrs. Rycker, who met her hus- band in Dunedin, said her husband noticed most the change in wom- en's styles and in automobile bodies.

Van Der Veer also said that one of the first things he did on his return from a zone where the tem. perature went to 72 degrees below zero was to hunt up an ice cream soda, SEVATE GETS PLA TOBAR INMIGRANT New Bill Aimed at Central and Sonth Americans Washington, April 9 (P —Varied proposals to apply immigration re- strictions to countries of this hem- isphere, commanded the attention of the genate today with the ultimate disposition of the legislation in doubt. . The bill of Senator Harris, demo- crat, Georgia, placing the regular quota restrictions new applicable to the other nations of the world on the immigrants from Central and South American countries, was the order of business. The measure would exempt Can- ada and Newfoundland from the terms of the new restriction, but Chairman Gould of the immigration comntittee, a republican from Maine, has offered a substitute to include these northern neighbors as well. Senator Allen, republican, Kansas, is the author of a proposal that would establish a federal board with power to regulate all immigration, within present limitations for the purpose of making a selection of new citizens to fit the labor needs of the country.
