I shall never forget the thoughts that ran through my mind as we started that torturous climb. From down in the valley of Berchtesgaden it seemed insurmountable.

The as it was known, was an imposing challenge. Snow, rocks, sheer slopes, ice, etc. all had to be well as human fear of what we might find up there, unarmed as we were. Somehow, after five and one-half hours, we finally reached our goal, unloosed a window, and entered what proved to be an unguarded, abandoned home of the then late Fuehrer. Revisits Hideaway Earlier this month, in a long- anticipated highlight of our current family tour of Europe, I revisited the famous hideaway of the notorious dictator.

Not only had I looked forward to this point of interest but so had our young son Jimmy, who had heard me speak of Hitler's Eagles Nest many times. I dare say he was even more excited about the visit than I. My wife and our daughter, Mary, also went with us. just for the ride, but partially also to see the point from which six pieces of rather special chinaware had been "liberated" that cold day in May 17 years ago. I assure you the climb this week was much easier than it has been in 1945.

We drove our newly purchased German-made auto part way up, then took a bus up to the elevator from which the final several hundred feet are negotiated. However the per cent of slope on some of those grades was not exactly to my wife's liking. It wasn't long and she had traded a window seat with me. The children, however, loved the exciting trip with its breathtaking views of the valleys far below Easier This Time Naturally my memory went back to my first visit. I recalled the crunching snow as we crisscrossed the road Hitler's slave laborers had carved out of the towering mountain sides.

I remembered rather vividly how every one of the five tunnels chisled through solid rock had been closed by snow and ice. Most of all, I remember Dick Ridder, of the St. Paul Dispatch, a veteran mountain climber in the Alps, leading way, guarding the rest of us against loose rocks, finding the crevices through which we might shorten our climb, avoiding soft spots in the deep snowbanks which might have been disastrous. None of that on this trip. And this time, when we got to the 390-foot long tunnel leading to the elevator, the huge doors were open.

Moreover, the brass-enhanced lift was working perfectly, enabling us to step out right into the hallway leading to the eight- sided sitting room that gave Hitler, Himmler, Goering, and the rest of his henchmen such a commanding view of the entire area of snow-covered mountain peaks and the beautiful valleys below. I remembered vividly our first glimpse of this room back on VE Day. It was in disorder, the result of quick departures by the Nazi custodians only hours before we reached it. Huge logs were still burning in the massive, ornate fireplace with its marble ledge. The large round table where der Fuehrer and his trusted lieutenants had made some of their infamous plans still had some wine glasses on it.

Some chairs were askew. We went to other rooms as well that day. Everything was cold and bleak. The long dining hall, with its impressive oak table and 36 solid oak chairs, had evidently not been used for months. I found a very long fancy oak cupboard nearby and, after some searching, found a key that opened a door to some panels.

It was behind these panels that I found the Meissen- ware china Hitler had used. The kitchen was elaborately equipped but in disorder. So was the workshop and some other rooms below. The library was empty, as was a writing room. All But Rooms Changed Today all the rooms are intact, but everything else has changed.

A huge bar has been placed on one end of the dining room. The long dining table, chairs, and fancy paneled cupboard is gone. In their places are small chairs where visitors are served drinks. The octagonal living room is now also used for serving food and beverages, with one area a souvenir stand. The kitchen is now very much in use, preparing snacks for tourist visitors.

The library is also being used again. Nowhere is there any reference to Hitler's name or to his determination to conquer the world. Fame for the Fuehrer was a fleeting thing, even though it cost the peo- Higher l.Q.'s Afnong Non-Smoking Students By The Associated Press Smoking and I.Q., emotional problems in girls and boys, and cancer in children are medical topics this week. High School Smoking Non-smoking high school students had higher l.Q and attained higher academic achievement than students who smoked, a survey covering 6,810 students in Newton, high schools indicates. Drs.

Eva 'J. Salber and Brian MacMahon and Miss Barbara Welsh of the Harvard University School of Public Health, who made the survey, said they also found that l.Q.'s were lower for heavy smokers than for light smokers. In a report in Pediatrics, the journal of the American Academy of" Pediatrics, the researchers said the relationship between smoking and academic achievement is complex. They did not conclude whether smoking results from low academic achievement, or that low achievement results from smoking or that both are caused by a third circumstance. They offered this theory: Pupils with superior grades are in good standing with their teachers and parents and are envied by their classmates.

It may be that children who can't make good grades "find in taking up smoking a way of demonstrating their maturity and achieving acceptance in (different) group." Emotional Problems Boys between the ages of 9 and Timet Herald, Carroll, la. Wednesday, Aug. 15, 1962 12 have twice as many emotional problems as girls of that age, but in later years adolescent girls show more emotional disturbances than adolescent boys, a New York child psychiatrist says. Dr. Stella.

Chess of Flower- Fifth Avenue Hospital theorized that boys tend to show their resistance to strong parental pressures at an early age while girls generally repress their defiance until their teens. Then their hostility may take the form of chasing after boys. This alarms the parents who apply greater pressure leading to even mote defiance and emotional imbalance. Cancer Increase Although the incidence of cancer rises with age, it is increasing faster in children than in adults. Dr.

C. C. Dauer, medical advisor of the National Center for Health Statistics of the U.S. Public Health Service, said the mortality rate for cancer among children 1 to 4 years of age has more than doubled since 1930 and has tripled in children 5 to 14 years old. Writing in Patterns of Disease, a monthly Park, Davis publication for physicians, he said: "This is a much greater percentage increase than has been observed in adults." He added, however, that it has not been determined how much of the increase is real and how much only apparent, stemming from greater diagnostic precision.

pie of Germany, and those of so much of the rest of the world, a frightful price. There was one special item of personal interest to me in the revisit to the eagles nest. When I was there in May 1945, we found some bayonets, among other things. With those bayonets we took the liberty to deface one of Hitler's walls slightly. On the wall above the marble fireplace, we wrote the words "May 8, 1945, liberated by" and then placed our names: Louis Lochner, of AP; Pierre Huss, INS; Jack Fleischer, UP; Dick Ridder, St.

Paul Dispatch, as well as my name and WHO, Des Moines. In fact, although I was the fifth to write, my name was at the top. Today there is a beautiful picture hanging above the fireplace where these names had been etched in by bayonet point. The wall has been times since then; but my just to check the story I had been giving her all these closely behind the picture, and sure enough, the names, only faintly visible now are still, there, just as we had placed them there on Hitler's one-time favorite wall on that memorable day in history when the war in Europe came to its long-awaited, prayerfully sought close.
