Accent on Youth During

Princesses' Island Tours
"Prinsesnan ta bini!" "De Prin-
sessen komen!" "Here come the
princesses!"
These greetings, for the most
part youthful, heralded the arrival
of H.R.H. Princess Irene and
H.R.H. Princess Margriet at Bea-
trix Airport July 26. Whatever the
language used to welcome the
royal visitors, the meaning was the
same -warm greetings from an
excited populace.
It was significant that children
far outnumbered adults at the air-
port because throughout the prin-
cesses' stay the accent was on
youth.
Before they were officially rec-
eived in the airport terminal by
aldermen and other government
officials, the princesses passed
through a row of smartly-clad girl
scouts and brownies. Another
formation of Antillean Girl Guild
members saluted the princesses as
they left the terminal.
Accompanied by I. S. de Cuba,
acting lieutenant governor of
Aruba, and C. Winkel, acting gov-
ernor of the Netherlands Antilles,
the princesses motored in open
cars to the Aruba Caribbean Hotel.
The route took them through the
Nassaustraat business district in
Oranjestad.
The entire fourth floor of the
hotel was reserved for the prin-
cesses and members of their of-
ficial party. The party included
their lady-in-waiting, private sec-
retary, adjutant and security per-
sonnel.
Except for their stately bearing,
the princesses could have passed
for two well-groomed young ladies
arriving for an island vacation.
Princess Irene wore a brown middy

of the Union.
The publisher began mailing the
books to the United States, includ-
ing Hawaii and Alaska, in May. The
750 copies were contracted for by
Lago to help subsidize the English
edition. Dr. Hartog's book was ori-
ginally published in Dutch several
years ago. It is a complete history
from ethnic origins of Aruba's
people to present-day political and
industrial developments.
Not only have the institutions
acknowledged receipt of copies of
the history but many have added
personal notes of appreciation in
cards and letters addressed to the
Public Relations Department.
A note from the Library of Hawaii
said: "Since we have very few books
about your part of the world, I am
sure we will find this volume most
interesting." And from the Des
Plains Public Library came this in-
teresting informative note: "Our city
of 42,000 population is located just
outside the new O'Hare Airport of
Chicago. Since our town has grown
some 200 per cent since 1950, we
have many executives who travel a
lot. A book such as yours will in-
terest many of our patrons."
A note from a southeastern lib-
rary, the Public Library of Winston-
Salem, North Carolina, included this
information: "This volume fills a
place in the histories of countries of
the world that we have needed. It
appears to be a complete and com-
prehensive history of Aruba."
The United States Naval Academy
advised that the book would be add-
ed to its collection for use by officers
and midshipmen; the University of
Oregon wrote that "......a work of

Lago's Thirty-Year-Old Marine Post Office

Will Close Doors Permanently Aug. 14
The Marine Post Office, a Lago service for sailors that dates back
thirty years, will close its doors and stamp windows Aug. 14. After
that date, Marine Post Office functions will be taken over by the Seroe
Colorado Post Office under the supervision of the Executive Service
Division. Sailors have more comfortable tankers as berths nowadays


but because modern tankers are big-
ger, fewer call at San Nicolas Har-
bor. This has meant less business for
the Marine Post Office and has led to
the decision to transfer operations to
Seroe Colorado's mail service.
As recently as 1959, the Marine
Post Office was handling 160,000 let-
ters annually, selhng Fls. 72,000 in
stamps and forwarding several thou-

National Safety Council

Presents Lago with Award

Of Honor Number Sixteen
Lago's sixteenth Award of Honor
from the National Safety Council has
joined the display of previous top
NSC awards in the General Office
Building.
The company received this plaque
for having operated 3,460,833 man-
hours without a disabling injury
from Dec. 6, 1961, through May 6,
1962. The Award of Honor is the
twelfth earned by Lago for having
operated a period of three million or
more manhours without a lost-time
injury. Four Awards of Honor were
the result of outstanding safety per-
formance in the petroleum industry
for a given year.
Award of Honor number fifteen
fitted the latter category. When
Lago took the National Safety Coun-
cil first place award in 1961 for its
industry group it also was awarded
an Award of Honor for outstanding
safety performance. That's the year
that Lago had a record 0.34 fre-
quency rate.
Award of Honor number fourteen
was received for a disabling-injury-
free work period from Oct. 19, 1960,
through June 6, 1961. Nearly
6,000,000 manhours were worked
during that period without a single
lost-time accident occurring.

sand parcels. It was a common sight
to see sailors rush for the post office
after clearing customs. Nearly all
would be carrying beautifully hand-
sewn sail cloth packages. For the
most part, the packages contained
Brazilan coffee, jams, clothing and
tinned soups intended for relatives in
European countries.
Sailors will be inconvenienced only
slightly with the change in mail
handling. Ships' masters can forward
outgoing mail through the GOB re-
ceptionist or seamen can purchase
stamps from either the Government
Post Office in San Nicolas or the
International Seamen's Club. The
latter is open twenty-four hours a
day and can handle the mailing of
packages as well. These packages,
however, will have to be inspected
by customs officials before they are
cleared to be taken out of the ref-
inery.
Incoming mail will be routed
through the Seroe Colorado Post Of-
fice to the Marine Department's ship
dispatcher who will deliver the mail
on board the ship.
When the harbor was first opened
to lake tankers thirty-five years ago,
mail was delivered to and picked up
at the Government Post Office in
Oranjestad.

New York City's


left his Marine
Department job to
pursue a college
education. He was
graduated from
the Brooklyn
school in June
with a bachelor's
degree in civil en-
gineering. Shortly
afterwards, M r.
LaRode received
an appointment as
an engineer with
Housing Authority.


Mr. LaRode said he left Aruba
with the burning desire to become

was sparked by his introduction to
engineering under the tutelage of
Forest Myers of TSD-Engieering.

Stop at Savaneta
Next stop was the Roman Catholic
Church in Savaneta. Again the ac-
cent was on youth. The princesses
were met by singing children and
were presented with attractive gifts
by boys and girls.
The International Seamen's Club
.n San Nicolas was visited by the
royal party following the Savaneta
stop. Both sides of the street were
lined with flag-waving school child-
ren. The princesses were greeted at
the seamen's organization by Board
Chairman W. T. Murphy, Vice Chair-
man J. R. Proterra, Treasurer D D.
Daleski, Father Erkamp, Club Man-
ager J. van Heeswijk and members
of the board. After a tour of the
club's facilities, the princesses and
- members of their party discussed
Sover-all club activities with members
of the reception committee during
refreshments. On behalf of the In-


names
John Wesley College was rext vis-
ited by the princesses. There they
were entertained with authentic An-
tillean folk dances. Costumed dan-
cers presented the princesses with
shell figurines and a souvenir album
cut in the shape of Aruba.
From John Wesley College the of-
ficial party motored through Lago's
Main Gate to the Employee Medical
Center where they were greeted by
President W. A. Murray and mem-
bers of the Executive Committee.
The princesses toured the Employee
Medical Center before motoring
through the refinery to the Youth
Canteen in Seroe Colorado.
At the Youth Canteen, the prin-
cesses sat with the teen-age com-
mittee members of the youth orga-
nization. The youths described their
duties and answered several queries
from the princesses about canteen
activities.
After the canteen visit, the prin-
cesses were escorted to the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Murray where they
had refreshments and a short rest
ftom the morning's full schedule.

tivities once again resumed for the
visiting princesses. The Island Gov-
ernment of Aruba feted the royal
party with a barbecue at the hotel.
A tour of the island's major scenic
spots Saturday morning took the
princesses to the natural bridge and
the rock formations at Ay6. On their
way to the natural bridge the prin-
cesses stopped at the Paradera Ro-
man Catholic Church where a may-
pole dance was in full sway.
At both the natural bridge and
Ay6, Princess Irene and Princess
Margriet scrambled over the rocks
to enjoy various views of the scenic
spots. Very much in evidence was
Princess Irene's 16 mm movie camera
as she recorded the natural wonders
for her film library.
Saturday's official program was
concluded with a dinner held for the
princesses at De Olde Molen restau-
rant. The island government again
sponsored the evening's entertain-
ment which suitably was held in the
authentic Dutch windmill.
The following morning, Sunday,
the princesses departed from the air-
port that bears the name of Crown
Princess Beatrix. At the airport were
hundreds of well wishers, their good-
byes muffled by the roar of the
KLM transport as it took off with
the princesses for Bonaire.

Manager B. C. Clarkson and Public
Relations Manager E. Byington. Mr.
Murray and Mr. Donovan escorted
the princesses into the Employee
Medical Center where they were in-
troduced to Dr. G. G. Hendrickson,
head of the Medical Department;
Dr. R. F. Brace, Employee Medical
Center head, and Dr. J. J. Waasdorp.
A short ride through the refinery
led to the Youth Canteen in Seroe
Colorado where the princesses were
greeted by an enthusiastic crowd and
various scouting groups. At the cen-
ter, they were met by Mrs. F. G.
Frey, Woman's Club president; Mrs.
I J. Kirkman, chairman of the
Youth Canteen committee, Mrs H.
C. Miller, leader of the Seroe Colo-
rado Girl Scouts, and Youth Canteen
otficers.
Mrs. Kirkman introduced the teen-
age officers to the princesses. Intro-
duced were Doug Monroe, Spencer
McGrew, Bonnie Fox, Gail Janson,
Mary Anne Byington, Joyce Rogers,
Carol Ann Leonard, Pat Hendrickson
and Debbie Lewis.
Following the introductions, the
princesses were given an outline of
Youth Canteen functions by the of-
ficers and committee chairmen. Dur-


Visit Lago I
ing the course of these reports, the
princesses asked several questions
pertaining to specific functions of of-
ficers and committee heads. Princess
Irene wanted to know more about
the organization of canteen dances
and operating hours for the Canteen.
Impressed by the cordon of scouts
she met at the entrance of the
Youth Canteen building, the prin-
cess asked if these organizations
were affiliated with the schools.
Joyce Rogers, a Mariner, explained
that the various scout groups are in-
dependent organizations.
At the conclusion of the discussion,
Doug Monroe, committee president,
presented the princesses with a spec-
ial tape recording of music typical of
Aruba and a photo album of summer
activities of Seroe Colorado youth.
Following the visit to the Youth
Canteen, the royal party was escort-
ed to the home of President and Mrs.
W. A. Murray where refreshments
were served. During this time, water
skiers and sail boats staged an im-
pressive water show on the big la-
goon. Trick skiers performed several
special stunts. Overhead were four
planes of the Aruba Flying Club
making passes over the lagoon in
tight formation.

Neils Lewring, advised the Aruba
Esso News that he had quite an unu-
sual journey ahead of him. He was
taking the vessel, the Inagua Foam,
2900 miles up the Amazon. In her
hold and on her deck were the dis-
mantled beams and allied equipment
that make up an oil-drilling rig.
The rig had to be delivered to

craft for delh.ry to the drill.ng site
on the Aguata River
Events of that trip were left to
speculation until recently when the
skipper of the Inagua Foam came to
Aruba aboard another landing ship,
the Inagua Shipper.
Captain Lewring had just come
back from his second journey up the
Amazon. This time his cargo was
road-building equipment. When ask-
ed the reason for hauling road gra-
ders and bulldozers into the heart of
the Peruvian jungle, Captain Lew-
ring answered several questions con-
cerning his original trip made in
October, 1960.
He said that the towering Andes
make it impossible to move heavy
equipment such as oil-drilling rigs
from Peru's coast to the inland drill-
ing sites. That's why the Inagua
Feam and Inagua Wave made the
journey twenty-two months ago:

He was the only American in the
crew when he made his first voyage
up the Amazon. The rest were from
Caribbean islands and had dealt with
the hot sun all their lives. None,
though, reckoned with the 110 de-
gree temperatures they faced daily
on the Amazon Captain Lewring
said the high temperatures, high hu-
midity and clouds of buzzing, biting
insects took much of the glamoml
out of the venture.

Crew Feared Indians
Most of the crew, including the
captain, were apprehensive about
wild animals and even wilder indians
when they steamed out of Belem.
