Fired, Nay

MISSILE TEST CENTER
Cape Canaveral, Fla. Sept. le
@.-A red and white missile
believed to be the now super.
seded Navajo was fired from
here yesterday. possibly with
Donald A. Quarles, Undersecre-
tary Of Defense, as a witness.
The needle-nosed projectile
scared southeastward over the
Atlantic after a fiery takeoff
Newsmen who watched the
launching said it appeared to
be successful.
A missile. believed to be one
Of the smaller types, was fired
this morning.
Work on the Navajo, a guided
missile with a 5.000-mile range
was halted a month ago on the
ground that it was not so fal
advanced as the Shark.
The Air Force. however
planned to keep on firing the
Navajos it had on hand fol
test purposes.
The Shark, also a 5,O00-mile
guided missile, is designed tc
travel at the speed Of sound al
attitudes up to $4,000 feet.
Mr.. Quarles was here on what
the Defense Department called
a busman's holiday. His visit
may have a bearing on the de-
cision to be made by Defense
Secretary Wilson on whether
the Army Jupiter, the Air Force
Thor or a combination of both
will go into production. Both
are 1,500-mile ballistic missiles

COURT TOO SLOW,
TWO SETTLE SUIT
WITH FLIP OF COIN

Los ANGELES R.-
Two businessmen have re-
vealed how they sped the
sometimes painfully slow
progress Of justice. But
/. their method isn't likely to
win applause in court
circles.
Steve Goss and Danny
Powlitz related yesterday
that they went to court for
assignment of a case await
ing trial for two years.
After four hours they
hadn't been called. Finally.
Mr.. Goss, suing for $500
he claimed Mr.. Powlitz
owed him from a business
deal. walked over and said:
Lets settle this the easy
way"
That was okay by Mr..
Powlitz. who in fact sug-
gested, Double or moth
ing"
So they tipped q coin,
and Mr.. Goss called heads,
but 1t came up tails.
Mr.. Goss left empty
handed. with this philo-
sophical observation: "He
probably would have won
in court. anyway"

making a similar voyage around
Europe. In June six Soviet war

Meanwhile, Jordan showed
continued nervousness over the
intentions Of Syria with its new
Soviet-Supplied arms.
The Jordanian cabinet met
last night in Amman and
framed a reply to a Syrian note.
The Syrian government had
asked II Jordan feared recent
developments in Syria, as the
United States had implied.
The contents of Jordan's

In Cuzu

NAHAL OF, Israel-(Spe-
ciaD-Part of a herd of
sheep from Dorot stolen 3
years ago, repeatedly by
Arab marauders, was recov-
cred when Israels army
swept into the GAIA strip.
Israeli soldiers spotted
the lambs with Hebrew let
tered metal stamps affixed
to their ears. The lambs
were sent to N a h al OF,
where they were identified
by settlers of Dorot, a col
lective farm settlement
along the GAIA strip.
Reports at the time of the
theft said 300 sheep were
stolen by the rustlers. But
only 81 were recovered and
most of them in poor condi-
ton.
