street NE, Mrs. Lucy johnson,
SIS, colored, chased them from
the place last night by firing a
revolver over their heads, she
told police.
Mrs. johnson. owner of john
sons Delicatessen, said the whole
thing started when a boy en-
tered the place and acted
smart" He was evicted by a
customer.
Return With Knives
Later the boy returned, Mrs.
johnson said, accompanied by
Is or 20 other boys armed with
sticks and knives. They were
outside the place as the lunch
room owner and the customer
attempted to leave.
Mrs. johnson said they threat
ened to kill both her and the
man who had made the first boy
leave. They also said they would
"tear the place apart" the owner
added.
Mrs. johnson said she managed
to get back in the delicatessen
and grabbed a .32-caliber pistol
she keeps there. She fired three
shots over the boys heads. One
bullet struck a second story win
dow in a house across the street.

Van Fosson
CountsDropped
BY L. EDGAR PRINA

Rea S. Van Fosson, former Air
Force intelligence officer. will not
60 to trial in connection with his
turning over a secret FBI dos
sier to the House Un-American
Activities Committee in 1854.
After reaching an agreement
with the Justice Department. Mr..
Van Fosson changed his plea from
not guilty to guilty in United
States District Court here yes
;erday on one misdemeanor count
in the eight-count indictment re-
turned against him last August.
The Government, for its part,
told Federal Judge Edward M.
Curran it would drop the seven
felony counts-six of them in
volving false statements it con-
tended Mr.. Van FoSson made to
the Air Force about the docu-
ment.
Pleaded Not Guilty
Mr.. Van Fosson, who is 81 and
lives at 1908 Dewey road, Sill
yer Spring. Md. with his wife
and two children, had pleaded
not guilty to all eight counts at
his arraignment last September
2.
Judge Curran set no date for
the sentencing. Mr.. Van Fos-
son. whose attorney is Edward
Bennett Williams. remains free
in a $1,000 bond.
The misdemeanor count, which
carries a maximum penalty of
one year in jail and a fine Of
$1,000. charged that the deco
rated World War II tail gunner
unlawfully converted to his own
use 113 sheets of paper" owned
by the Government and whose
total value was less than 500.
The secret FBI document. q
photostatic copy Of which Mr..
Van FosSon turned over to the
House committee. concerned Jay
Lovestone. one of the founders Of
the Communist Party. U. S. A..
and its chief at the time he was
expelled by Joseph Stain in 1929.
Speculation Arises
There was speculation that the
Government came to an agree
ment with Mr.. Van FoSson which
avoids a trial because 1t did not
want to risk having to produce
the Lovestone dossier for the
public record.
The Air Force separated Mr..
Van Fosson on November %,
1854. accepting his resignation
"for the good of the service"
This amounted to an "other
than honorable" discharge and
cost him his terminal leave pay
and other benefits. He was hired
the next day by the House COM
mittee as an investigator at an
annual rate of $4,000.
His tenure on Capitol Hill was
brief. When the Democrats took
control of Congress last January,
the new committee chairman,
Representative Walter of Penn
sylvania, released him.
Mr.. Van Fosson is now a sales
man for a frozen-food concern.

Japanese Survey Ships
 Sail For Salmon Grounds Closed By Russian Edict

KUSHIRO, Hokkaida, Japan, R Four Japanese survey ships set said Thursday for disputed north Pacific waters where Russia has clamped a ban on salmon fishing.
 The vessels are the first of a fleet of more than 500 Japanese salmon boats standing by in Hok kaido ports for the signal to sail. The salmon season extends from mid May until September.
 The Soviet government recent ly ordered waters north of Japan approaching the Siberian coast closed to salmon fishing.
 The Moscow announcement said the restrictions were temporary until the conclusion of a suit able agreement with the inter ested countries" needed to end "rapaciouS" salmon catching on fishing migration routes in the open sea.
 Japanese trade union leaders have predicted disaster in their fishing industry unless the ban is lifted. They charged the Rus sian edict violated the present Russian-JapaneSe fishing treaty.
 A Japanese mission will leave for Moscow Saturday to try to iron out differences over the sal mon fishing issue.

Olaf HalverSOn Will Copyright Theory On The Aurora BOrealiS

For about 30 years now, Olaf Halverson has been working on theory concerning the northern lights. His first ideas on the cause of the phenomena origin ated in northern Minnesota while teaching school there. On long evening hikes he would entertain himself by trying to explain the cause of the display. His main theories have changed very little since those days.
 While teaching on the Canadian border a few years later he added considerable knowledge, even from the behavior of stu dents on certain days when the atmosphere was favorable for northern lights.
 In 1887, at Bethel, Alaska, he heard about the sun-spot theory but 1t merely confirmed his own ideas.
 While teaching in Nome MT. Halverson has been working on theory of coloration.
 He plans to have his theories protected by copyright before re- leasing any information,

The following story about our own High School Nanooks basket ball team is reprinted from the Minneapolis Star:
 One of the more remarkable high school basketball teams is the Nome Nanooks of far-off Al aska. It perhaps is the only team that does not play another high school before it competes in it's state" tournament. The boys play intra-squad games before they embark for the Alaska tours hament at Anchorage or Fair banks. Yet, they have been good enough to win the Class B tourna- ment, for 'enrollments of 100 or less, for two years in a row.
 Going to tournament is quite an event in itself Air transporta- ton to the tournament site at either Anchorage or Fairbanks, 500 miles away, is $1,296. Board and room costs another thousand. For some of the boys it's the first time they ever have seen another town.
