‘NEW YORK. March 26 -— New ‘for: rusinurants ' ould please Lin- coln Ellsworth better if they ser- ved sizzling seal steaks or sauted breast oi penguin. "I like the wild taste oi such meat,” said the ex- plorer. back from Antarctica.

“Seal steak ls delicious and the only difficulty with penguin was that it took i7 of them to feed our CIPW. The breasts are the only parts you can eat."

Penguin eggs. too, are not to be snubbed on a. polar menu. They are about tho size of turkey eggs and Iriocl or in omclets are fit for any exploirrs breakfast.

In New York vhile making up his. mind on plans for another try at. owsﬁiiig the southern back yard of tilt‘. world, Ellsworth is keeping in trim by wrestling daily. Graying at 54 and tanned as if he wintr-rvci on it Mid-ml beach. he hopes to rcturn to tlm Antarctic so that early in November or late in October ho can attempt another HOIF-TVJIIKI dash.

Scotland Yazd some time ago. In a statement expressing hi5 support for the request that the body be transferred, he said it was his brother's wish. expressed ire- quently. that he should be buried in Murlough Bay, Flair-head, County Antrim. facing Rathlln Island. This is in Northern Ireland but MLCa-se- mcnt declared he would regard the remains as belonging to the nation and would Bgree to the wishes of the people in regard to burial in the Free state.

Sean Fitzpatrick. Secretary of the National Groves Association-an extremist Republican body-said that he was sure Casement would have been satisfied "to have his remains kept in bondage in an Enszlisl-i jail until the country which he gave his life to free has been ltberated from British domin- ation."

It is regarded as probable the re- quest for the transfer of the hrdy will be made by the Irish Free State, in the event of the demoli- tion of the prison.
