FrOSh Haze Hazer By Sending Him To Fairbanks

SEATTLE, R - It's far piece from Claremont, Calif., to Fair banks, but that's where a hazing prank sent the sophomore class president at Claremont Mems Col lege last night.
 Daryl Butcher, 19, of Pomona, Calif., passed through here en- route to the Far North on a one way ticket. He appeared to be enjoying the gag.
 Butcher, as head of the sopho- more class, was in charge of haz- ing freshmen at the college. h. stead, the frosh turned the tables and kidnapped him yesterday, bundled him aboard a Western Airlines plane and stuck one way ticket to Fairbanks in. his hand. A
 In Seattle, he switched to a Pan American World Airways flight He carried a flag with 49 stars and a letter of congratulation on Alaska Statehood addressed tc "Gov. Mike Stepovich."
 Only trouble was the plane wasn't supposed to stop at Jul neau, the Alaskan capital, ano Stepovich hasn't been governor since his resignation last month

July 9 Quake Disrupts Yakutat Channel In s. E.

SEATTLE, R - The U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey said today the July earthquake which struck Alaska crumpled sections of the ocean floor off the Terri tory into massive ridges and gorges.
 The sharp quake took the lives of five persons. Three were killed when the entire end of an island in southeastern Alaska wa S sheared off. Two others died when huge waves resulting from the tremor smashed their fishing boat
 The USCGS said it's ship the Pathfinder found variations of almost 60 to 75 feet off charted depths, the survey said, adding that Yakutat Channel, charted at 162-16e feet, is now actually only 96 feet deep at some points.
 The Survey said the Pathfinder was sent to the area to gather evidence on which to base a de- cision whether new charts will be needed for the Alaska coast line fault area where the quake is believed to have originated.

Chinese Engage In Biggest Jet Battle In History, Over Formosa
By GENE KRAMER

ETAIPEI, For1nosa, R-Nation- aIst jets clashed with more than 100 Red Migs over Formosa Strait today in one of the biggest jet battles in history.
 The Nationalist Defense Min istry said 32 Nationalist Sabre jets, flown by American-trained pilots, shot down II Reds and possibly 6 more.
 Adm. Liu Hoh-Tu said the Ma tionalists anabushed the Commit nists as the Reds attempted to draw the Chiang Kai-Shek air men over the Red mainland.
 "They want to claim we are at- lacking the mainland and turn public opinion against us in the United Nations," Liu said.
 Today's clash began when the Migs tried to get between the Sabre jets and Formosa, and thus force the Nationalist planes over the Communist mainland.

WASHINGTON, R = The ad- ministrative office of United States courts renewed today an often made recommendation - that Alaska's Third Judicial Divi- sion be given a second judge
 The recommendation, m d e without special comment in the annual report of the offices di- rector, was accompanied by sta tistics showing that the district was the only one of Alaska's four divisions in which the backlog of pending cases increased during the year ended last June 30.
 The Third Division (Anchcrage) received 1,252 new civil actions in the 12-month period, disposed of 1,124 cases and wound up the year with a backlog of 1,756 civil cases as compared with 1928 a year earlier. The criminal back log increased by one, to a total of 83, with 232 new cases filed. The Fourth Division Fairbanks) court received 479 new civil cases

US. Squeaks Thru 'Postponement Of
 Seating Red China
By TOM HOGE

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, R - Diplomats speculated today that the United States may have suc- ceeded for the last time in sweep ing aside a LIN. decision of the Red China seating issue.
 The U. S. proposal to sidetrack the thorny question for another year cleared the General Assem- bly, 44-28, with g absentions. It was the narrowest margin of vic tory on record for opponents of the move to seat the Chinese Com munists in the United Nations.
 T e United States, which battled almost singlehandedly for its proposal, managed to hold the support of slightly more than 54 per cent of the JUN. members.
 In 1854, when the United States first used the tactics of postpon- ing debate on China for that ses- sion, the Americans got 71.6 per cent of the vote. In 1855 support dropped to 70 per cent, and in 1956-57, to a little more than 59 per cent.
 Word circulated that the United States got only perfunctory SUD- port from many of its friends who felt an issue involving represen- tation of 600 million people should at least be discussed before the World Forum.

Specialists May Soon Diagnose Illness By Phone
By FRANK CAREY

Associated Press Science Writer
 BETHESDA, Md, .R - Navy researchers today :envisioned a time when country, doctors can have big city specialists diagnose their patients ailments by link ing the patients body to long distance telephone line.
 The first demonstration of such a technique was made yesterday in a telephone transmission from the Naval Hospital at Bethesda to Kansas City, Mo-, 1000 miles away.
 Doctors attending a Kansas City convention successfully diagnosed sight unseen two heart cases, and another involving bad kidneys.
 The far-away doctors got their information from electronic sig nals transmitted over the tele- phone line, after being picked up by special apparatus attached to the patient. A brief history of the patients symptoms was also trans mitted vocally by Navy It. John D. Kern, member of the cardiol- ogy section at Bethesda.
 Each remote-control diagnosis took only about 10 minutes.
 The special equipment is de signed to pick up for telemetered transmission on a patients electro cardiogram, pulse, respiratory rate, respiratory volume, and breath sounds.

but disposed of 48O to cut its civil backlog by one to 751. It disposed of 113 criminal actions, the same number as filed, to hold it's back log in this category unchanged at 112.
 At Juneau, the First Division cut it's backlog of civil cases dur ing the year from 140 to 120 by disposing of 344 as against 324 new cases filed. It lost ground in criminal actions, however, dispos- ing of 79 while getting 87 new cases. The criminal backlog in creased to g from IA on June 30, 1857.
 The Second Division Court at Nome held it's own for the year. It pared it's civil case backlog to 21 cases, a drop of one, by com pleting Az cases. But this was off set by the filing of 32 new crim- inal cases against disposition of 31. The criminal backlog thus rose fO 9

WASHINGTON, R - Alaska generated few air passengers and less air freight in 1857 than in 1856, desSite an overall increase in aircraft departures reported to the Civil Aeronautics Board.

 Largest traffic declines occurred in Alaska's major cities.
 At Anchorage, decline in air. craft departures from 8,988 to 1884 was accompanied by a drop of complaining passengers from 1O4,520 to 89,718, and in cargo from 15,227 to but 6,084 tons.
 Plane departures at Fairbanks fell off from 6,911 to 5,489 during the year, reflecting drop from 57,253 to 43,937 in passengers and from 15,595 tons to but 1,646 tons in cargo.
 Juneau had a greater number of plane departures during 1857, a total of 6s047 as compared with 5,262 in 1856, and responded by increasing its passenger total from 40,23e to 42,264. It still showed decline in cargo gen. eration, however, falling off from 752 tons Tn l956 10 6I0 III l9o1.
 Plane departures at Nome dropped from 2,945 to 2,303, but the Seward Peninsula area vir- tually held it's own in passenger generation - 9,612 in 1857, against the previous years 9,736. Cargo tonnage declined heavily from 5,135 tons to only 397 tons in 1887.
 Sitka was one of the few major Alaskan cities to show an in- crease across the board. Plane departures went up from 1,153 to 1,517, accompanied by an increase from 1882 to 9,057 in passengers, and from 27 to B tons of cargo.

BEIRUT, Lebanon, R - An attempt to assassinate Premier Sami Solh missed by split second Tuesday. This and heavy exchanges of gunfire in Beirut emphasized that Lebanon's 81- day crisis is still on despite some expressed hopes for early peace.
 The incidents coincided with Is new demands by the opposition national front just as it seemed possible compromise might be reached on, election of a new president, which some thought might lead to an easing of this nations problems.
 The opposition and supporters of the pro-W Western government were reported practically agreed on the Army commander, Gen. Fuad Shehab, as compromise. But the national front turned thumbs down on any candidate unless he woud agree to demand immediate withdrawal of Ameri- can troops.
 It also demanded immediate resignation of President Camille Glamour, whose term does not expire until late September.
 The US. embassy announced American troops would be with drawn only if Lebanon's internal security is established and the United Nations provides adequate guarantees of Lebanon's inde- pendence.
 Eight persons were killed and a 5-year-old firl hurt, but Prime Minister Solh was not touched in the assassination attempt. A car parked along the road was blown up as he was driving in to Beirut. Detonator wires from the car ran up a hillside to spot from which, two men were seen to run.
 Had they delayed the detona- ton a split second longer the
