 Van C. Griffin, referee in bank ruptcy for the US. district court, said today a hearing had been scheduled Jan. 27 before Federal Judge William J. Lindberg for presentation of the reorganization plan if it is ready.
 The reorganization plan must have the approval of the Securi- ties and Exchange Commission. the referee, trustee and judge, and then be- submitted to the creditors whose claims outstand- ing against the corporation total between $800,0O0 and 100000.
 One of the key features of the reorganization, said a trustees attorney, is prompt conversion of the Seward telephone system from manual to dial operations"
 There are about 700 telephones in the Seward system and another 700 at Haines, Wrangell and Pe- tersburg.
 Spokesmen said the reorgani- ration plan was being worked out in the hope that creditors would realize greater amount on their claims, and improved, continued service could be maintained at the four remaining communities in the system.

 Vice President Nixon described as courageous her action Mon day night in attending a state din- ner for King Mohammed V of Morocco, after President Eisen- hover had suffered a mild stroke.
 But last night, Mrs. Eisenhower joined the ailing President in din- ing from trays and watching tele- vision for a couple of hours in their White House living quarters.
 In advance of the Monday night dinner, the White House had an nounced only that Eisenhower had suffered "a chill"
 Nixon, who escorted the First Lady to the dinner and sat by her, commented:
 q might say that Mrs. Eisen- hower's performance last Mon- day) night, knowing what she knew, was as courageous as I have ever seen by anyone. It was perhaps the most difficult time she has ever had"
 No state functions interfered during Eisenhower previous ill- nesses-a heart attack in Denver in September 1855 and an ileitis operation in June 1856. In each case, Mrs. Eisenhower took a room in the hospital to be near the President, and remained with him thru convaleScence.

Americans prepared today to give thanks for another years harvest of freedom and album dance, but the shadow of Presi- dent Eisenhower's illness dark ened somewhat the usual joyful spirit of the time.

Jupiter Rocket Falls Short in Test

MISSILE TEST CENTER, Cape Canaveral, Fla, R-The Army fired its big Jupiter rocket last night, but the 1,500-mile range missile failed to complete it's planned flight.
 Moments after the 70-foot in termediate-range ballistic missile sblazed into the tropic sky al. 9:10 pm. EST, the Army issued a statement that said it failed to complete it's programmed flight because of technical difficulties.
 Six congressman watched the firing.
 To hundreds of spectators watching along the beach on this island midway along the Florida east coast, the Jupiter was a spec tacular sight as it rose from a pillow of smoke and flame on the launching pad.
 It appeared to travel straight up, trailing a yellow flame. Then it became purplish light high in the sky. It was visible for about four minutes and was brighter than any star.
 The Defense Department state ment said: 'sThis test of the Jul piter, under development by the Army, is one of a series of inter mediate range and intercontinen- tai ballistic missile flight tests conducted at the Cape Canaveral range"

Judge Denies
 Postponenent Of Beck Trial

SEATTLE R-King County Su- perior Judge Malcolm Douglas yesterday denied a motion by the attorney for Dave Beck ST. that the grand larceny trial of the International Teamsters Union president be postponed.
 It is scheduled to start Monday
 The attorney, Charles s. Bur dell, based his motion on his con- tention that adverse publicity would make it difficult for Beck to get fair trial at this time.
 Burdell also said Beck is due in Washington, DC, Monday as a witness in a civil suit involving the eligibility of James Hoffa to succeed Beck as president of the teamsters union.
 In denying the motion, Judge Douglas said a civil case should not take presidence over crirn- inal case and that Dec. 2 was suggested by Burdell as the start ing date for Beck's trial when Burdell received a previous delay.
 Beck is charged with misap- propriating the proceeds form the sale of a union owned automobile.
 His son, Dave Jr., was convict ed Saturday on two counts of grand larceny. involving the sale of two other union owned cars.
