Atomic Warhead Set Off 60 Miles In Outer Space

HONOLULU, RAThe US. blas- ted off a guided missile with an atomic warhead from Johnston Island. The flash lit the skies so that it was seen by many in the Hawaiian Islands, 700 miles to the northwest.
 A civil engineer in Honolulu, using four methods of reckoning estimated the explosion of the nuclear warhead occurred at a height of tat least 60 miles"
 The warhead apparently was put aloft on an Army Redstone rocket. That was the type mis- sile used in a similar test at Johnston Island on Aug. 1.
 Some experts believed it blasted off at slightly more than 40 miles in the air, far above any previous known level for a nu- clear explosion.
 The firings are reported to be part of the effort to develop an anti-missile missile. Such a nu- clear warhead would be detonated against enemy intercontinental ballistic missiles while they were in space.
 In Washington, the Atomic Energy Commission put out this terse explanation in statement:
 ''The test detonation of a nu- clear warhead in a missile oc- cured above the Johnston Is land area in the Pacific Tuesday The test is part of the hardtack nuclear weapons test series"
 The blast came on the heels o1 report by a 15-nation LIN. scien. tific committee Sunday that ever slow increase in world radio activity from nuclear tests anc other sources endanger man kinds future health.
 While agreeing unanimously that even the smallest amount: of radiation may cause harmful genetic and perhaps physical eff fleets, the committee turned down la Soviet demand that they cal for an immediate end to nucleal tests.

Senators Favor Promotion For Adm. RickOver

WASHINGTON, R - A group of Democratic senators has de- handed that the Navy promote Rear Adm. H. G. Rickover. They said he will be forced into re- tirement in a year or so unless he is upped to three star rank.
 Navy Department officials, however, said the demands for Rickover's promotion apparently based on a misunderstanding of the rules-that retention in ser vice and move to higher rank are two separate matters.
 Rickover's record, however, is due for review anytime after year from now to determine whether he should be retired. That holds true for any flag of ficer who has been seven years in one grade.
 As yet, the Navy hasn't said one way or the other whether the 58-year-old Rickover will be moved up to vice admiral. Rick over was moving force in devel- opment of the first US. atomic submarine.
 The senators Monday night re- called the fight that occurred in 1853 when Rickover was pro- noted from captain after the intercession of members of Con- gress and then Secretary of Navy Robert Anderson. A board of admirals, which controls pro- motions, twice passed over Rick over.

DubeniOn Makes
UPI AU-OhiO

Ebert Dubenion added an.
other honor last week when
he was named first string
halfback on the United Press
International Al-Ohio squad.
Chet Foraker, Beaver end
and cO-captain, was given
honorable mention.
Dubenion was the only
player from a small school to
make the club. Four men from
Bowling Green, three from
Miami, one each from Mus
kingum, Ohio Wesleyan and
Dayton joined him on the
honor team.
Named a third string half
back, far behind DubeniOn,
was Lima's Joe Morrison,
drafted by the New York
Giants.
Ed Jordan, Ffndlay's high
tOuted halfback, and Iinemen
Mike Craden of Defiance and
Bob Brown of Ashland were
the only other MOL players
to be mentioned.

If Founders hall were a pup
tent the Bluffton Beavers would
be the strongest team in the Mid
Ohio league.
However, the provident Men
MONTE fathers built the new GYM
nasium of brick and steel, max
ing it impossible for the Beavers
to carry their favorite playing
floor with them about the league.
AS a result the Beavers
have a dual reputation:
The best home team i'm the
league.
The worst road team i'm the
league.
Last Wednesdays 1857 hair
puller with Findlay stands as
final proof of the theory. The
Beavers had already lost road
games to Ashland, Defiance and
impotent Heidelberg this season
before they returned to Founders
hall to knock a big hole in Find
lays barrel of Mid-Ohio cham
pionship hopes.
The score was tied at 14-14,
1919, 61-61 and 63-63 before
Mouse Kalb got his radar sighted
in on the basket. 1t is an estab.
lished fact that Kalb cannot see
the basket when he is more thar
ten feet away but when his radal
is tuned he is probably the most
deadly little gunner in the Mid
Ohio.
With 3:09 to go Kalb was
knocked kicking, but as ht
squirmed painfully on the flool
he apparently jolted his radar in
to working order. From tha
time on he scored nine straigh
points. He hit two quick baskets
The first gave BE a 65-65 tie, th'

second put them in the lead for
good at 67-65, and then he
poured in five straight free
throws to win the game.
Work Pays Off
Bluffton won the game their
second straight victory over the
Oilers, both in Founders haN =
by out-working what began as a
superbly confident team. Bluff
ton outran, out-rebounded and
out-defensed Findlay.
The Beavers raced to a quick
60 lead but their own careless
play kept them from completely
crushing the Oilers in the first
few minutes.
Harv Porter, Kalb and Milt
Lee blasted the Beavers off to
quick 60 lead before long
George Keller hit for Findlay.
The shocked Oilers responded
properly to Buttons full court
press by throwing the ball away
three times in a row but the
Beavers, filled with premature
Christmas cheer, gave it right
back each time.
Bluffton held a 1913 margin
late in the first period before
Fred Polinski led a burst which
gave the Oilers IL of the next IL
points.
FindIay Comes Back
With the game slipping form
Bluffton's grasp Paul Fike re-
placed Kalb and set the Beavers
back in motion by pouring in
three long jump shots, giving
them a temporary lead of 22-21.
FindIay's Joe Hanauer then pro-
ceeded to shake loose from his
man for four consecutive bunnies
before the Beavers recovered.

TWO FOXES KILLED

Two foxes were killed in drives
southeast of town last week. Jim
Montgomery bagged the first on
a drive last Tuesday in the Hog
Creek area. Another fox was
killed the following day by Clair
Montgomery on the Edith Powell
farm in Orange township which
is farmed by Jim Montgomery.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1958-12-25

The Oilers led 1881 as half
time. Hanauer and Keller con-
tinued the hot work early in the
second half to give the Oilers
1891 lead before Bluffton began
the long climb.
Larry Hedden and Able Mast
finally zeroed in their shots and
pulled Bluffton within a single
point before Hanauer broke loose
on another squirt. With the Bea-
vers trailing 50-45 Hedden hit a
long jump shot and the hot
handed F'ike re-entered the game
to push in two long shots and
give BC a brief 51-50 lead.
From this point the lead
moved back and forth like
jitterbug before Kalb began his
monumental string.
The Prophet
Before the game began Bea-
yer coach Ken Mast confided
that Bluffton's aim was to hold
Findlay under 70 points and then
added as an afterthought that
Bluffton expected to score "a
little over TO-"
His reputation as a prophet
should be fairly well established
with a record like that but it was
steady defensive work by Harv
Porter on the big Keller that
made him right. Porter kept the
Findlay star from making his
regular contributions. Keller
scored IS in his last appearance
at Founders hall, and still holds
| the high school Holiday Carnival
scoring record for that floor.
Hanauer scored 20 to lead
Findlay. The Woodworking Polin-
ski had II and Keller was held to
IA.
Clean Sweep
Bluffton's reserves made the
right complete as they held g
heavy hand over the Oiler JVs
for a 74-62 victory
The Beavers JVs shot a hot
So percent for the evening, with
jump shooting Carl Liechty lead
ing the way with an unbelievable
20 percent from the filed. Liechty
hit II points, but it was Bluff
TONS Joe Urich who stole the
show.
Urich showed his old time mag.
ic touch as he poured in "a
points. The previous night he has
scored 21 against the Heidelberg
JVs. Football star Billy Lape
added 81 for Bluffton's spares.
The young Beavers led 1924 al
halftime and then kept Findlay
out of reach for the second half

SAFETY PAYS OFF

Can you see, steer and stop safely?
If you can't you are traffic men,
ace and have no business on Tar Heel
thoroughfares.
That's the lesson of the current We
hicle safety-check program, now go
ing on throughout the state. This
program, sponsored in 80 of the states
100 counties, is being conducted by
the Department of Motor Vehicles in
an effort to detect mechanically de-
fective vehiclse before its too late.
The time, therefore, to find out if
you can see, steer and stop safely is
before you start out on the street or
highway.
Don't wait until you are caught in
a sudden downpour to find out if
your windshield wipers are flexible
and efficient. It's too late to replace
them after the deluge starts. And
dried out windshield wipers can cause
a dim-out that may cost your life.
Don't wait until critical moment
when your life depends on split
second stopping to find out that the
brake pedal slams down to the floor
board. The time taken to pump brakes
before they take hold translates into
extra feet of stopping distance-and
even IL inches of extra stopping dis
lance can spell disaster.
The list of "don'ts" could be as
long as the list of safety parts in your
automobile, for your vehicle is just
as safe as its weakest part Now -
before an emergency arises - is the
time to ferret out hidden weakness.
Check and double check. Use your
eyes, use your ears, use your head
constantly to check for superficial
trouble. But to guard against more
deep seated ills, there's no substitute

SALVATION ARMY
HELPS NEEDY

Last year stolen car and its driver
were apprehended in Sumter, S. c.,
by the FBI because the auto had been
taken in another state. The thief was
placed in Jail but confinement was no
place for his two passengers q
pregnant wife and small child.
The Salvation Army took in the
woman and her youngster, and kept
them until arrangements could be
made for her to return to her home
town. Then a doctor entered the pic
ture. He said the woman could not
travel in her condition. Lonely and
bewildered, she received both ma
terial and spiritual assistance from
The Salvation Army when she needed
them the most.

Although the Army's North and South
Carolina Division has impressive fig
ures to prove the wonderful job it
did last year, it prefers to ignore the
statistics and point out that each case
was a story within itself.
