LOS ANGELES, Aug. 22.-Pres-
ervation of the nearly extinct con-
dor. Americas third rarest bird
was urged yesterday by wild life
enthusiasts opposing oil well drill
ing in condor sanctuary.
John H. Baker, president of the
National Audubon Society, said
there are only approximately go
condors alive today in a $4,000
acre sanctuary area of Los Padres
National Forest.
Only the ivory billed woodpecker
and the whooping crane are rarer
in the United States than the con-
dor, a bird with a 12-foot wing
spread.
Mr.. Baker recommended with
drawal of the $4,000 acres perma-
nently from entry of mineral,
gas or oil operators. The condor
refuge is located IS miles east Of
Santa Barbara, Calf, between
Fillmore and Topa Topa Noun

OF oil and only about 60 condors,
most of which are in the local
forests" Mr.. Baker said. Public

LAKE SUCCESS. Aug. o.
The Security Council meets again
this afternoon for what appears
certain to be its ninth no-progress
session of Russian Jacob A. Malik' S
tenure as president.
Despite his own failure earlier
in the month to oust the Chinese
Nationalists and seat Communist
China, Mr.. Malik was expected
to present a similar demand made
this week by Red China's Foreign
Minister Chou En-lai. Chou, like
Russia, also seeks participation of
North Korean representatives in
the Council debates on the Korean
war.
Other Council members were
certain to greet Chou's demand as
coldly as they earlier rejected
Mr.. Malik's.
No Progress on Deadlock.
Nor was there any progress in
the procedural deadlock which has
stalled decisive Council action.
The Council met informally in
closed session yesterday. Mr.. Ma
lik. whose one-month tenure as
the groups president expires Au-
gust 81, proposed again that the
North Koreans be invited to the
public meetings. Other Council
members-who want only South
Korea represented-refused again.
The meeting broke up without
agreement.

Often, such installations could, during non-school hours, become revenue producers by be- ing made available to adults. I have in mind the community swimming pool at Ocean Falls, British Columbia, a community smaller in population than many Alaskan towns, where that facility is patronized and enjoyed by all. Certainly there is every reason that henceforth when a new school building is to be built in our larg- CT communities, a standard size swimming pool be included. True, that may not be possible in every case, but I hope that every Alas kan community that has a school population of l50 or more will in- clude such a pool if a new school building is among its projects. Certainly there is every reason why our major communit e S [. Ketchikan, Metlakatla, Wrangell, Petersburg, Sitka, Juneau, Cor dova, Anchorage, Seward, Palmer, Kodiak, Fairbanks, and Nome, and maybe some lesser ones should make this form of exercise and recreation available to their chill dren.
 And so desire to repeat that an

 were. Consequently, our children have limited opportunities for healthful outdoor exercise and recreation. In providing better fa- cilities for these, we will contrib ute greatly to the overall physical and mental health and general well-being of our children. In the States, almost all school children have available to them as an inte- gral part of their school life the full range of organized sports. In addition to the basketball which we have, down below" they have football, baseball, track. tennis, a variety of water sports, swimming races, water polo, and diving, handball, volleyball, squash, and much else. In Alaska virtually all we have is basketball, and that, by no means, in all our comrnuni- ties. Some schools have tumbling teams. Some communities are fa- vorably situated for skiing or hockey, but this is only occasion ally and not yet a school activity. In a country largely dependent on the sea, our school systems should, wherever possible, supplement

 "There many other less vital than Alaska where retrenchment might be undertaken The question the air force hasn't answered is:
 Why pick on Alaska?"

 matter of fact it makes tragic nonsense. The Senator also promises that at the next session of Congress he will advocate 5O50 policy of defense under which Pa cific areas will be protected on equality with the Atlantic theater

At the rSk O seeming rlte we are gong to repeat edl- torally the remarks of Senator Magnuson recently in columns concerning the withdrawal of the air forces from the Aeutan Chain. We doing in the belief that certain things vital to defy emphasis. Senator Magnuson said in part:
 Alaska would be the first country would want to help out if it under foreign flag.
 Under the American flag, she is the first military planners pick out in which to retrench.
 "We could cede the Territory to Luxembourg, and she would get military assistance than she is get ting now.
 "Or if we turned her over to Balkan state she could be given steel mills, concrete plants and equip men for other important economic enterprises Alaska lacks

 It is almost unbelievable that the retrenchment pro- gram the air force feels is necessary must first be in

Famed RitzCarltOn To Be Town Down

NEW YORK, (A) - The ultra fashionable Ritz-Carlton Hotel. whose name helped put the word "ritz" into the English language. is to be torn down.
 A 25-story office building will be erected in its place.
 The task of demolishing the l6- story hotel, a luxury landmark i'll New York City for 40 years, will begin nearly next year.
 The plan was disclosed by the Urls Brothers Real Estate firm. which said it had obtained long term lease on the site at an annual ground rental of $225 ,000.
 The firm said the new office building will cost some $l5.000.- 900.

building there"
 indoor swimming pool has become virtually standard high school, and often grade school, equipment throughout the United States. It has long since been appreciated, and is being increasingly so, that swimming is one of the most healthful of sports, one of the most useful of all recreations, and that knowing how to swim is i'm portant to every child.
 So, to the excellent general req sons for enlarging and diversity ing the scope of our physical ac- tivity and healthful recreation should be added the fact of our long winters. Although the tenn peratures and precipitation differ in different parts of Alaska, the winters are long everywhere in the Territory and much outdoor activity available elsewhere in America is denied our Alaskan youngsters. A standard size swim ming pool in the basement of the school building would go far to remedy this situation. There is the further fact that the great major ity of AlaskanS live by the sea. and many derive their livelihood from the sea. Practically all use boats. Knowing how to swim even a few strokes would have saved not a few lives in the past. For that reason, if for no other, swim ming should be learned by the younger generation.
 Finally, there is an overall req son why we should make this i'm pOrtant addition to our commun- lty lives. In order to hold people in Alaska, to transform Alaska from being merely the abode of tranSients, as it has been to a con- siderable, though, happily, dimin- ishing degree, for the last half century, we must make life little richer and little fuller than it has been. We must blow somewhat more back than has been done in the past. Speaking in household terms, we must put little more butter in the cake. For years I have been making study of why people-after years of residence here-leave Alaska. There is common denominator in the great majority of the reasons why they leave. That common denominator is that there are certain things lacking in our communities that can be found in American com munities down below" We have got to supply more of these things, now lacking. We probably cannot supply all of them, but we should aim to do what we can. We must set as our goal, I feel, that the best that is available to any Amer jeans is none too good for Alas kans if it is attainable.

 Commander McLain further states "No child has chance who has not been taught to pray and to love God No good citizen wants to place upon the brow of our children failures crown of thorns No parent should cruelty the moral and spiritual lives of deserving child upon the of inactivity The American Legion is dedicated to God and Country We do not attempt to n fuence the religious teachings of anyone but do beg of all good citizens that you aid in teaching all children religion The teachings should be in accordance with the belief of the responsible pares The Logion is equally interested in seeing Protestant, Catholic and a Jew sh child benefit from the teachings of their faiths The State and Nation will benefit from all such teach ingS.
