The Howies are here to visit his sister, Miss Jean Howie, and to acquaint parents with next summer's Prairie Trek plans. The trek, an amazing summer camp operating out of the Howies' ranch headquarters in Cottonwood Gulch, N.M., has been his project ever since its beginnings in 1926. summer, Since the trek has reached such proportions as to demand year round attention, Howie retired June from the headmastership of the Community School in St.

Louis to devote full time to. camp affairs. They maintain residence, however, in 1 Kirkwood, for summers in their beloved Southwest. Careers dedicated to young people must agree with them. Neither of the Howies look a day older than when we last saw them.

The sturdy, unhurried ease, sincerity, enthusiasm, friendliness and quiet humor are still hallmarks of the Howie personality. Seeing them recaptures something of the 1930s. It's hard to believe that so many years have elapsed since he was Orand nature teacher while still chard's part time shop, crafts a student at Butler.

When the seahorse was chosen as emblem for the fledgling museum Hillis, then Orchard's youthful shop teacher, carved out of oak the first seahorse plaque for the museum's use, following a design by the late Kurt Vonnegut. Along in 1930, when his Prairie Trek was in its fourth year, the museum assumed sponsorship. The fleet of oldtime station wagons flying seahorse flags and labeled "Field Expedition of the Children's Museum of Indianapolis" attracted no end of attention.

The inscription was widely misread as "Field Museum Children's Expedition." The first trek was composed of seven boys, all of Indianapolis. Nowadays, youngsters from all over the country make up the 110 enrollment. The following Indianapolis boys will be members of the 1960 trek: Donald, son of Mrs. Jameson Acheson; James Burns, whose parents are Mr. and Mrs.

De Gaulle Held Strasbourg Despite Ike's Plan, Memoirs Point Out "THE WAR MEMOIRS OF CHARLES DE GAULLE: Salvation. 1944-46." New York: Simon and Schuster. $6. By WENDELL PHILLIPPI Gen. Charles de Gaulle's war memoirs, in this third volume, continue to be excellent and instructive history.

One conclusion is virtually certain: De Gaulle and President Eisenhower did not spend much time discussing World War II strategy and tactics while they toured the battlefield at Gettysburg recently. For it would have recalled too many bitter memories between the two generals. Here is how the conversation might have gone between the two soldier -politicians, based on De Gaulle's viewpoint: Ike: General, we're tidying up our battle lines under Monty's leadership. You will have to pull out of Strasbourg because its defense does not fit into our British pattern. Besides I'm getting the hell kicked out of me in the Bulge.

De. Gaulle: General, you may be the top dog but I'm not pulling out of Strasbourg no, matter what you say. I'm commanding the Free French Army and if America and Britain are not willing to defend what we've fought for, then we'll defend alone as a and liberated nation. proud. I'm sorry but Alsace is too large for us to defend and besides we'll withdraw our supply support if you don't fall into line with our over-all tidying up.

Besides you're out of channels completely. Your Army is under Gen. Jake Devers and it should be doing what he says. De Gaulle: You go right ahead and withdraw our supplies, General. We'll stop your use of our railroads and communication system in France and you won't have the ability to sustain anything.

You might like to know I've informed Churchill and Roosevelt of the embarrassing position you have put me in. Ike: You continentals always win. You are so practical. De Gaulle: You Americans are so naive. You think the Army exists for itself.

The Army exists to promulgate the wishes of the state and its people. Ike: You win. New orders are on the way. P.S.

ALVIN R. MYERS BOOKS Iroquois on Warpath to Keep Their Lands "APOLOGIES TO THE IROQUOIS." By Edmund Wilson. New York: Farrar, Straus and Cudahy. $4.95. By HERBERT KENNEY JR.

Edmund Wilson, as befits the front-rank critic that he is, also is a top-notch reporter. It is a rare combination of talents that he brings to his books: The critic's balancing judgment and the reporter's eternal curiosity. His lively interests have led to such books as the first popular report on the Dead Sea Scrolls and an evocative book about the Zunis, "Red, Blond and Olive." Now he looks into the plight of the remnants of what was once a proud Indian nation, the Iroquois. Over the last few years there have appeared stories in the newspapers of a running feud these Indians have been having with the government over attempts to take their land for a power development. Wilson became with the battle that followed, as one lone Indian tribe challenged the authority of the state to dispossess it from its ancient tribal lands.

What he found and what he presents in a superb report, is a classic example of impersonal government grinding under a small, defenseless group. There has been resistance, stout-hearted defiance even, as the Indians fought NEWEST IN PAPERBACKS "Dark by Alfred Coppel (Gold Medal) 35c. Three-Way Split," by Gil Brewer (Gold Medal) 25c.

New York: Hastings House. By FRANK WILSON Nat Fleischer's Ring Magazine and Ring Record Book long have been bosom buddies to the foliowers of fisticuffs. Rightly so, for Fleischer has devoted his life to the proper recording of fistiana and its follies. John Durant's new book could be called only a companion of Fleischer's efforts, but a welcome and entertaining one it is. Durant deals only with the glamour boys of fighting, the heavies.

He's done a complete job. He traces modern heavies from James Figg, the 18th century boxing master, right through to the devastating job, that Ingemar Johansson on Floyd Paterson last June in Yankee Stadium. All the big ones are here: Jack Broughton, the "father" of boxing; Tom Molineaux, the slave who won freedom with his fists; Tom Hyer, the first recognized American champion; the great John L. Sullivan, Gentleman Jim Corbett, Bob Fitzsimmons, Jack Johnson, Jim Jeffries, Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, the Brown Bomber; Rocky Marciano and Johansson. In addition to writing readable prose about the big boys, Durant has done quite a bit of statistical work, too.

Included in the slim volume are a table of champions from Corbett through Johansson, a list of British and American bare-knuckle champs, champions' ages when they won and lost their titles, Louis' unmatched record, a judging advisory and a boxing glossary. Boxing bugs should devour this one, and they'll do it easily. Durant's style is an one, not given to pontifications. Just pugilistics.

Writers Influence European, Says Poet for what they considered to be their rights. Curiously, some of their white neighbors have joined them in the battle, a battle whose outcome seems foredoomed because the small fellow is no match for the impersonal power of government. "Apologies to the Iroquois" is a moving, eloquent presentation of the case for these Indians. It is also a disconcerting expose of the ruthless tactics employed by New York's super administrator, Robert Moses. Wilson writes with a clean, keen style that is a marvel to read; the vividness of his reporting makes this a book to enjoy as well as to ponder.

By RED LEITER, WASHINGTON Nobel prize winner Salvatore Quasimodo says it is American writers who are infusing European literature with new blood. The controversial Italian poet, whose work has never been published in English in this country, said the tone given to European literature by Proust, Kafka, Joyce and Mann is no longer suited to Europe's needs. "American literature is coming to grips, with the, real problems humanity," he said. "The European tradition continues to be philsosphical and abstract. American a influence is predominant in Italy today." Quasimodo cited Hemingway, Faulkner and Tennessee Williams as the chief influences over European writers.

In poetry, he said, Ezra Pound, Conrad Aiken and E. E. Cummings, all of whom he has translated, are most important.

The Italian poet's English vocabulary is limited to "hello," "goodbye" and "fine." He was interviewed with the help of an interpreter.
