Two Young North Korean Pliers
 Surrender Yak Fighter To ROK's

SEOUL, 1.-Two young North Korean fliers buzzed the Seoul airport Tuesday in a old, Russian built Yak fighter, then landed and gave themselves up to cheering South Korean airmen.
 The two were marched to BOX air force headquarters for ques- tioning. It was presumed they sought political asylum.
 South Korean officials identi- fled the pilot as Capt. Lee Un Yong, 24, who said he returned only six months ago from Rus sian jet flying school at Kiev. The other flier was identified as It. Lee Fun Song, 24, navi- gator trained in Red China. Both are natives of Pyongyang, the Red Korean capital.
 They were the first Korean Communist fl1erS to flee from the Reds since It. Noh Rum Suk landed Mig jet fighter at near by Kimpo air field Sept. q, 1853. He received a $1OO,OOO reward for delivering the Mig and asylum in the United States.
 BOX officers said the two North Koreans crossed the truce zone at hedge-hopping 50 feet to escape radar detection. Their plane, a Yak, is single engine propeller driven fighter-bomber.
 They said the control tower, manned by Americans and Kor- cans, at first thought the Yak

 We have this the authority of Dr. Lowry H. McDaniel of Tyronza, Ark. who made these revola- tions to convention session of the American Medical Assn in Atlantic City. Even the cold, he said Twill be only memory.
 But think the good doctor might better have told this to the Congress- so lawmakers get busy revaping the social security rules If Americans in that day still under wraps to quit work at 65 they may be healthy but they I'll be long time hungry And what woman would cherish less eternal youth beauty and Shapeliness she couldn't buy a new hat?

WASHINGTON, -RLThe Inter for Department said yesterday it has under consideration 24 sets of bids by three construction out fits for the Seward dock project in Alaska.
 Congress voted 4,4OO,0O for the project but officials said more than one million of that already has been spent for piling and other construction materials.
 Officials told a reporter they did not know when an award would be made. They expressed doubt it would be today as re- ported in some quarters.

 It was, given an immediate come in signal.

Hobby Disclaims
 Responsibility For Vaccine Situation

WASHINGTON, R Secretary of Welfare Hobby said Monday she bears no responsibility for the governments actions in the Salk polio vaccine situation. She said the law places that burden on Surgeon General Leonard A. Scheele.
 In a radio interview, Mrs. Hobby emphasized she was not dissatisfied with Scheele's actions But she made repeated distinc. tions between the responsibilities of her department and those of the Public Health Service, a Welfare Department agency head ed by Scheele.
 Asked if she had any apologies for the way the vaccine program has been handled, or would, with hindsight have acted differently, Mrs. Hobby said:
 There is nothing I could have done differently. The law lon control of biologicals such as the Salk vaccine) charged the Public Health Service and not the Sec retary."
 At another point, she said she would be legally powerless to overrule Scheele if she thought he had made a mistake.

coast, in 1919, numerous sea
captains reported a lOO-foot
monster with punches on its
back" A study Of these re-
ports leaves no doubt that for
more than a year a strange,
enormous fish was living in the
New England waters.
z. Two dozen extremely
well-documented accounts of a
sea monster observed along the
Norwegian coast about l845.
3. of the Cape of Good
Hope on August E, l848,
Captain Peter M'Ouhae, Com
mander of the Daed0ius, a
Royal Navy corvette, observed
a sea monster. Here is an
excerpt from his official report
to the Admiralty:

serpent with head and Shout
ders kept about four feet con-
stantly above the surface of
sea; there was at least sixty feet
of animal. 1t passed rapidly
but close under our lee quar-
ters."
Later that same year, the
commander of the American
brig, Daphne, reported a SINH
lar monster observed from 40
yards away. The commander
fired at it, but it escaped.
4. In 1877, Captain H. L.
Pearson, Commander of Queen
Victoria's yacht, described a
monster observed off the coast
of Sicily.

IT WAS after studying the Dana
fish, however, that DR.. Bruun
began to theorize that perhaps
some of the marine serpents
that have been reported over
the years. and largely dis
counted as Pigments Of mag
nation, might in fact have been
actual serpents. So he began a
long study of the reports.
ITO a zoologist who has
fished the seven seas" he says,
''it is not too difficult to spot a
layman's misinterpretation OF
his meeting with a school of
dolphins, basking sharks, giant
squids and other big sea crea-
lures. However, l sifted the
reports down to two hundred
which l feel are valid, and Of
these there are six cases which
are indisputably authentic; the
monstrous serpents observed in
these cases cannot be reason
ably related to any creature
now known to zoology"
These are DR.. BRUINS six
cases:
1. Along the New England
