Calls
For Speedup in
Missile Defense
Rocket Program
Topic Of Inquiry
By House Group

Secretary OF Defense McElroy
said today that the anti-mis-
sile missile program must be
speeded up. He declared. how
ever. that there has been no
decision. even tentative, as to
whether there should be a crash
program or how much it might
cost.
The Defense Secretary dis
cussed this aspect of the mis-
sile and satellite programs after
a long closed session this morn
ing with the House Appropri-
atoms Subcommittee on mill
tary spending.
Subcommittee Chairman M
hon, Democrat of Texas, told
reporters at the same time that
he is convinced the United
States lags seriously behind
Soviet Russia in production Of
MISUNDERSTANDING ballistic
missiles.
He told reporters that "of
course we are making progress
in that program, but we should
go faster, if only for the benefit
Of our NATO allies"
Hearing to Continue
The Mahon subcommittee
session was scheduled to be re-
sumed later this afternoon and
probably tomorrow. Secretary
McElroy was accompanied by
Deputy Secretary Of Defense
Donald Quarles and William
Holiday, the Pentagon's direc-
tor of missile research and de-
velopment.
In recent weeks the Subcom-
mittee has held closed hearings
in several cities and military
installations in all parts of the
country. 1t had announced that
it expected to begin hearings
here late this month. There was
no advance announcement.
however, that the top-ranking
Pentagon officials would meet
with the subcommittee at the
Capitol today.
Before the subcommittee
went into closed session Mr..
Mahon reiterated q charge he
had made on several previous
occasions that some funds APP
propriated BY Congress for
missile development have not
been used by military authori-
ties. He explained later that
the morning session did not
discuss any possible failure Of
Pentagon officials to use all
available funds for ballistic
missiles.
Today's hearing put the House
one Jump ahead Of the Senate
on an inquiry into where the
United States stands with rela-
ton to Russia in the race to de-
velop space-traveling weapons.
A study is planned by the Sem
ate Preparedness Subcommittee
headed by Senator johnson.
Democrat Of Texas. but it has
not gone beyond the staff in
quiry stage. Hearings start next
week.

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

OPERA: With the opening Of
the Metropolitan Opera House
in 1883. reigning society queens
were presented with an oppor-
tunity to show off their fabulous
jewels. g..
This developed into a lively
competition, as society only went
to the Met on Monday night.
On that night, there was a
profusion Of priceless baubles in
the house.
To appear conspicuous in this
dazzling array took some doing.
To attract attention to them
selves, matrons resorted to all
sorts of stratagems. Some had
the chairs in their boxes built
extra high so that a maximum
of eXpanse would be visible.
Others used strings Of diamonds
as dress sashes.
It remained for Mrs. Frederick
Vanderbilt. however, to put them
all to shame. She entered the
Met one Monday night with a
rope of pearls dangling from
her waist. At the end of the
rope, which reached to the floor,
was a ruby as big as an Idaho
potato. AS she walked down the
aisle, she kicked the ruby out
in front of her. This piece Of
showmanship caused her rivals
to turn as green as their emer-
aids. and for a moment, they
were almost mad enough to
listen to the music.

How to

'OId Age: Triumph or Tragedy?
By DR.. PETER }. STElNcRoHN

You may not believe 1t, but
have personally known hundreds
of people whose lives we're dark
ened when young, simply because
they were afraid of old age
They would point out some de-
Icrepit elders and say: I'D rather
die than have to come to that
And with every birthday they
became more depressed because
they were getting closer to the
awful tragedy of old age"
Along those lines, here is a
short note which I received a few
days ago:
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: Why
oh why. do you write articles
telling people how to reach ripe
old age when the majority OF
articles written tell of the trag-
edies of old age. lack of love

seem to care if she is still in a
house dress when he comes in
and the place is in a mess.
The Councils View
From both accounts. it appears
that the first step Shirley should
take in becoming a more efficient
homemaker is to ask her mother
not to come to help" her. No
wonder Shirley is irritable at the
end Of a day in which she has
had to contend with a perfec-
zionist mother giving her belated
training.
Shirley'S next step should be
to accept the fact that her home
does not have to look perfect
or as nice as her mothers Ap-
parently her husband is not at
all dissatisfied with the way
things are going. If she can feel
cheerful and pleased with her.
self at the end of the day. her
husband will be still happier.
Shirley should not accept her
mothers verdict that she is
"scatterbrained." 1t takes every
young homemaker time to de-
velop efficiency in running a
home. When there is a young
baby to care for. things are
even harder. Every reasonable
person knows this and doesn't
expect a young mothers home
to always be in apple-pie order
A third step for Shirley might
be to go to the public library
and get out a few books on
efficient home management.
There are many good ones and
she'll get lots of tips on organiz-
ing her time and making use of
various short cuts.

that l am not doing justice by

home I'm exhausted and irritable

My mother comes every day
to help me. but we get into ar

My mother is a perfectionist and

Mrs. r. M.-Shirley has always
been Scatterbrained and could

wrong in not training her more

Shaw Meets
Euclid Here
Friday Eve
BY Bob Coates

Tomorrow, Friday night the
Euclid Panthers provide the op-
position for the Shaw High Cards.
The game will be at Shaw.
So far this year, Euclid has ex-
perienced its worst basketball
season since the opening of the
new school building in 1949. They
boast a 40 record which only
shows one victory in their nine
starts. Shaw defeated Euclid in
their first meeting, 67-35.
Last week the Cards were
handed a stunning 44-42 loss by
the lowly Panther Redmen. In
holding the Cards offense to the
lowest point total of the year (42), +,
Parma completely revised their
previous 7O-47 defeat by Shaw.
Shaw's failure to control the
ball and the backbo9rds cost them
the lead as Parma forged ahead,
1910, 1916 in the opening periods.
The determined Kibbelmen con-
tinued to peck away in the third
period to pull within two points
of Parma, 31-29.
Both teams played on even
terms in the closing stanza. until
Shaw finally assumed a 3-point
margin. 40-37, with two minutes
remaining in the contest. But
Parma quickly matched that pro-
duction equalizinG the score. 4O-4O
with the clock showing 1:16. Fif-
teen seconds later Parma bolted
ahead 42-40 on a field goal. Tom
