Field, one of the three Australian brides here. Mrs. Field is a native of Perth, Western Australia. Her hus band is from Johnson City, Tenn., and is doing graduate work in geography. She came to America in September, 1945. Speaking of the voyage to the "exciting country," on board the Lurline, she said: Crowded Conditions "Living with 500 other Aus tralian women for 15 days was an experience " within itself. About 250 brides had babies with them. Only about 12 had their husbands with them. How I used to envy those lucky few, since my husband was then sta tioned in Sanford, Florida." After the ship docked at San Francisco, Mrs. Field was greet ed by some of her husband's friends, who helped her get to Los Angeles, where she took a plane for Sanford. "Tom was discharged from the Navy a fortnight later. We were one happy couple." Since September, Mr. and Mrs. Field have traveled to Ten nessee, Washington, JBaltimore, Lancaster and Richmond.

Drawl Fascinates "My husband considered at tending the University of Wis consin, Johns Hopkins, and Clark.
