ILoch Ness Monster
+ Seen Again Despite

INVERNESS, Scotland. April 81
Despite the shortage Of Scotch

To hear them tell 1t, the thing
swooShes through the long narrow
lake as fearsomely as ever.
So much for the wartime claim
of Mussolini,s propaganda staf that
a direct bomb hit had destroyed the
Loeb Ness nightmare. The monster
was first reported "seen" in 1888,
but was coyly out Of sight during
most of the war
j. w. McKillop. Invernessshire
County clerk, said he sighted 1t to-
day.
3The monster was travelling dag
onally across the loch," related Mr.
McKillop, a sober man. ut travelled
at high speed to the other side and
submerged about 200 yards OF the
shore"
Four men in an automobile,
drinking habits unknown, also in
sisted they saw Nessie, as local resi-
dents call the monster. One man
said 1t had a cleaning body and
one hump. The others said they
saw two humps.
Earlier accounts have credited
Nessie with up to six humps and
have described him-or her-as q
serpent like creature anywhere from
IL to more than 100 feet long.
Three British naval ofiicers-a
rear admiral. captain and a COM

Betty Pritz, who was inaugurated
as the Teen Age Merry-Go-Round
Reporter in September, is another
who is showing up we'll and is do
ing a swell job in handling the re-
porting and announcing on the
show. Betty did the welcomig yes
terday on the years first program
and brought on several of the par
Elephants on the program.
The music department was rung
up as a definite hit as Patty Jones
accompanied the singers, who were
others who hit the top with their
grand singing. And Patty. never
failing to do her usual swell job
OF playing those piano worries, was
back on the program Saturday
morning after being absent to at
tend a conference in Tennessee.
Marguerite Todd, who icidental-
ly was one of those on the very
first Teen Age Merry = Go Round
that was presented, won the listen
ing audience with her c%ontralto
singing of THE Lost Chord and

parts in the operettas at MINIS,
and she looks into a very promls-
ing future. Oracle Gurganious de-
serves much acclaim Cor her rem
dition of two songs, "Oh. But l

ed in the musicals at the high
school and she has also appeared
on the Teen Age Merry-Go-Round
many times.
Jimmy McKoy wound up his hol-
iday leave from Oakridge Military
Institute with another appearance
on the Teen Age Merry-Go-Round
yesterday morning. Jimmy has
taken a place on the program with
his fine singing, and yesterday ad-
ded another hit as he sang "Pas-

to school, but when he returns IN
the latter part of January, we hope
we'll all be hearing Jimmy again
over the Merry-Go-Round.
Betty Williamson gave the
Thought for the Day and made a
joint report with Patty Jones on
the Young Peoples Conference
held recently in Nashville, Ten
nessee. Both Betty and Patty, as
well as Ann Jordan, were chosen
representatives to the Conference
last week.
Behind all the teen ayers by
helping them to get up the show,
writing scripts, hearing additions,
and handling other complications
involved in presenting a radio pro-
gram is the adult director, Ben
Mcdonald, who deserves a round
of applause for his work in keep
ing the show going.
The gang of teen ayers and all
the people who work with the Teen

ing a swell job of bringing out the
talent of the boys and girls in
southeastern North Carolina. So
remember that the Merry Co.

have to do is to let them know
about you, and if necessary have
an addition arranged.

American sources said there
were two "jokers" in the proposal.
First, they said, by avoiding any
direct mention of the time OF such
destruction, Mr.. Gromyko was try
ing to circumvent the American
plan for stage-by -stage surrender
of atomic secrets and finally the
bomb itself.
Secondly, Mr. Gromyko was said
to be attempting to bar the posi-
btfity of the bombs being handed
over to a proposed U. N. police

The FBI first questioned Wallis

First U. 5. Submarines
For Atomic Age Due
10 Be Finished in'51
By WiIiiom J. WheotIev

The first submarines of the
atomic age" Navy are expected to
be laid down on the ways early
next year, to be completed sometime
In 1851, the Navy disclosed today.
They will be radical in design,
but the Navy is reticent about what
Is going into the new ships.
Expected to cost not over $15,-
10000 each, they will be of approx
1mately 1000 tons displacement, 500
tons larger than the largest OF the
World War II subs.
One OF the primary improvements
expected in the new submarines is
greatly increased underwater speed.
In developing this, the naval de-
signers have the benefit of data
surrendered by the Germans.
Although the hull, machinery and
overall contract plans have been
completed by the Bureau of Ships,
the detailed plans and specifications
will not be completed for several
months. Then bids will be sought
from private shipbuilding contrac-
tors for one ship. One of them
definitely will be built by the naval
shipyard at Portsmouth, N. H.
Plans Subject to Change.
The plans will not be final. Even
in the course of building there may
be redesigning to include later de-
velopments, particularly in propel-
ling machinery, and offensive and
defensive weapons. There is no
suggestion. at this time, that atomic
power will be ready by the time
they are completed, however.
There was some suggestion tl.at
the new subs will be long, sleek
cigar-shaped, with a minimum of
water resistance. This may call
for elimination of the conventional
coming towers found on all sub
marines now, leaving the top prac-
tically clear.
The two new subs are to bear the
names of the two which made ship
sinking history in the Pacific dur
ing the last war They will be
named for the Tang and Trigger,
both OF which disappeared in 1945.
The old Tang won two Presidential
Unit Citations for sinking s3,824
tons Of japanese shipping, while
Che Trigger sank 86,552 tons.
Race Is Now With Russia.
Testimony before House Armed
Service Committee on the measure
to authorize funds for the two subs
left no doubt that the submarine
race now Is between the United
States and the Russians. Great
Britain, Russia and the United
States each got more than 10 Ger
man submarines after World War
II. but each was supposed to destroy
all over 10. Naval officers express
doubt as to whether some of the
other countries did any destroying.
The Russians got 10 of the newest
and best submarines of the German
underwater fleet, and the United
States got 10 of mixed type.
Vice Admiral Robert B. Carney,
deputy chief of naval operations for
logistics, told the committee that
he did not believe the Russians had
dismantled the German submarine
construction plants found in their
occupation zone
Il have understood" he said,
"that they started to dismantle
them and found out it was better
industrial practice to set them up
again and continue work in that
area. We do know that they have
employed many of their (German)
construction people, civilian engin-
GERS and scientists, and also people
concerned with the submarine serv-
ice, that are engaged in work for
them"

tificate. men usually sign asserting
that they are not taking out any
thing of a confidential nature, but
we are very much interested in find
ing out. If they weren't searched
we want to know why they weren't
searched"
Admits He Took Negatives.
Wallis was quoted by his attorney,
Julian Schwartz, in Chicago yeSter-
day as saying that when he left the
Los Alamos project before his dis
charge in March, 1946, he tossed
into his luggage "a bunch of dupli-
cate negatives which he thought
had outlived their value as secret
records"
There was no indication as to how
Won der Luft managed to get away
with the 200 pages of handwritten
notes that FBI agents said they re-
covered from him.
Maj. Gen. Leslie r. Groves, who
headed the atomic bomb project
while it was controlled by the Army,
was not available for comment to-
day on the point of luggage checks
at the project sites.
Secrets Believed Secure.
An FBI official said today his
agency believes that the atom bomb
secrets the two men are accused of
taking did not get away from them
before being recovered by the Gov
ernment. Both men have been de-
scribed as souvenir hunters by
Senator Hickenlooper, who said he
was comfortably satisfied on that
point"
Maximum penalty facing the two
men for the specific charge of will
fully and unlawfully removing docu-
ments and records is $4,000 fine
and three years in prison in case of
conviction.
Since the notes and Photographic
negatives alegedly involved were
recovered weeks ago, there was a
question of whether or not the
Justice Department might have de-
layed the arrests for fear that efforts
to try the men might rip away the
secrecy veil on atomic details.
Doubts Secrets Must Be Revealed.
Acknowledging that there had
been considerable discussion" on

In the midst of his attack on the

James F. Byrnes and charged that
the former Secretary of State "asks

was the first Soviet reaction here to
Mr.. Byrnes' book Speaking Frank
