Quintuplets Born In Texas; Two Die Few Hours Later
SAN ANTONIO, Tex. Five tiny girl babies, the third) eet of quintuplets in United States history, were born Tues- day to an air force lieutenant’s} wife. But a few hours later two of the infants had died.
“Baby B,” so designaied to in- dicate the alphabetical order of birth, died at 9:40 pm. ADT. “Baby A” died at 10:10 p.m.
Doctors said babies “C” and *PD”’ were in satisfactory condi- tion—but baby “E’’ was in less than satisfactory condition.
The announcement of the sec- ond-born’s death came after the father, Lieut. Hannan, ference. He had just told report- ers of his faith in prayer.
“J have said lots of prayers,” the crew-cut navigator told re-
ers. ‘““My wife has, too, and it!
has done lots of good before and now.”
SUDDEN DEATH
The press conference was in- terrupted when Hannan was - galled away—to be told of “baby B’s” death.
The mother Cecelia Hannan, is 2 years old and like Hannan a mative of Texas. She was doing well. They were childhood sweet- hearts in Taylor, Tex., schools before their marriage.
“I'm flabbergasted.” Hannan said when first told he was the father of quints. And at the press conference he kept running his hands over his face, as if he still couldn't believe it.
The tiny girls—the first set of girl quintuplets ever born in the
United States. — were three months premature. Chances of quints surviving, even if full!
term, are poor. -
Two other sets of quintuplets have been born in United States history but both sets included boys — and in both cases the quints did not survive beyond in- fancy.
ONE SET LIVING
The only living quintuplets in}
the world are the Diligentis of g Buenos Aires, Argentina, who celebrated their 16th birthday last July 15. The Dionne quintu- plets of Canada survived for two * decades—unti! one, Emilie, died at 20 in 1954.

of bargain-hunters, one from as far away as Edmonton, were reveling in a saving spree Tues- day because 54,000 Canadians were careless with the mails.
The occasion was the post of- fice department’s annual auction of articles and parcels which could not. be delivered because they were improperly addressed or improperly packaged.
Aid Is Studied For Prairies
By ARCH MacKENZIE Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP) — Assistance to
a Prairie grain farmers, stricken i by unseasonal snowing-in of their |erops, will be discussed Thurs- day at Winnipeg by federal, pro- vincial and farm leaders.
Prime Minister Diefenbaker announced Tuesday following a cabinet meeting that he and three ministers will attegd the Winnipeg conference.
Its purpose, he said, is to dis- cuss conditions and ask opinions on what co-operative measures should betaken by the federal government and the governments of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba to alleviate undue hard- ship.
Invited to attend are the three agriculture ministers from the Prairies and representatives from each province representing the wheat pools, United Grain Grow- ers, farm unions and Canadian Federation of Agriculture.
NO ESTIMATE
No official estimate of the amount of grain caught in the fields has been made yet but of- ficials here said Tuesday they ex- ; pect a fuller picture will be avail- |able at Winnipeg when each prov- ince reports.
Unofficial “estimates have gested more than _ 100,000,000 | bushels of grain were caught by the first snows. The Saskatch- ewan Wheat Pool a weak ago said 110,000,000 bushels remained unharvested in that province alone.
Accompanying Mr. Diefenbaker fo Winnipeg will be Trade Min- ister Churchill, Agriculture Mia- ister Harkness and Resources Minister-Hamiiton, who are} members of the cabinet’s: wheat committee, «

Post Office's Sale Attracts Crowds
The post office has a special | branch that tries—and often suc-) ceeds—in tracing owners of the packages but it is still left with enough strays to stage one of the! country’s liveliest and most prof- itable auctions.
Those who benefit most from it are other Canadians, most of whom are on the prowl for bar- gains to cut down their Christmas budgets.
REPRESENTS CLUB
Just how valuable others’ care- lessness is to those who attend the auction is cited by Ruth Bur- dick of Edmonton. She travelled half way across the country to snap up bargains for herself and 14 other women at the two-day auction.
“This is my fourth year at the auction,’”’ she said in an inter- view. ‘“‘When the sale was held in Edmonton three years ago some of us were so enthusiastic about the bargains we got that we formed a club. It’s the easiest way to do your Christmas shop- ping.”
The women, business girls and housewives, each save $60 a year for the auction. Each contributes $10 toward Miss Burdick’s fare,
send her off with marked catalogues, available in advance, to do their bidding with their: re- maining $50. CLASSIFIES ARTICLES
The post office classifies the lost articles and repackages them into approximately 500 parcels, containing about 15 items each. They include clothing, cutlery, electrical appliances, jewelry, books, cameras, sporting equip- ment, furs, kitchen utensils, yard goods, portable radios and type- writers, farming equipment and even traps for muskrats, minks, and mice.

APEC PRESIDENT IS HERE
A belief in a “great economic destiny” for the Atlantic Prov- inces was voiced last night by the Atlantic Provinces Economic Council President Arthur John- son, St. John’s, Newfoundland.
Mr. Johnson was speaking at a well.attended membership drive meeting held at the Char- lottetown Hotel.
“In spite of changing condit- ions and temporary setbacks,” he declared,” we have great un- explored natural resources in minerals, great hydro power, un- exploited forest wealth, great fisheries, an agricultural market in our midst hardly touched, splendid tourist possibilities and many small industries yet un- born.”
“Like all of us I have great confidence and pride in ourselves
-I believe in a great econone destiny for us.”
“TELL THE WORLD”
Mr. Johnson said that the re- gions’ residents must first con- vince themselves of \that fact.. “then we have to tell the world that the Aflantic region is on the march.”
Mr. Johnson was tadvodsint by Dr. Frank MacKinnon, the im- mediate past president of APEC, and thanked by Captain Claude Hunter, president of the Char. lottetown Board of Trade.
Payl Tate, APEC’s member- ship development officer, also spoke briefly urging all interest- ed Islanders to become active particiapants in the objectives of APEC. “The measure of our success will depend on your fin- ancial and moral support,”’. he said.
The meeting was chaired by George Chandler of Charlotte- town APEC. vice-president for Printe Edward Island.

Court Delays Decision On Steel Strike Order
,the United Steelworkers Union i had completed their arguments. He said the next session would be at ll am. today.
Sorg did not say whether a rul- ing would be handed down then. The government had sought the irjunction, but the .union vigor- ously opposed it.
_ Acting on orders from Presi- dent Eisenhower, the government asked the court to issue an in- junction under the Taft-Hartley law sending the 500.000 strikers back to work temporarily. The union requested the court to dery an injunction.
10 ‘COOL’ OFF
The Taft-Hartley Act provides that labor disputes imperilling the national economy may be ter- minated for an 80-day ‘“‘cooling off’ period. After that time, the strike could continue.
The government’s petitioa stated the strike—longest indus- try-wide steel shutdown in his- tory—has closed down 310 steel plants, 118 iron ore mines and il transport facilities in 32 states.
“Unless the strike is enjoined.” the government said, “‘the United States of America will suffer im- mediate and irreparable injury.”
The petition named the United Steelworkers and 97 steel com- panies as defendants.
