The Nome nugget., 1958-05-07

MINNEAPOLIS, R - An as- tronomer and a veteran Navy balloonist, tired and hungry af- ter a 12-hour ascent to 40,00O feet, today said they found a place near their maximum all titude where the stars didn't twinkle.
 Cmdr Malcolm D. Ross, long time Navy aeronaut, and aStron- omer Alfred H. Mikesell, were flown here after their landing in a clover field near Dubuque, Iowa.
 Were a little tired, but very happy" both men said. They wanted slaves and were anxious for breakfast.
 Ross and Mikesell said the balloon was around 4O,000 feet when they observed the stars were not twinkling.
 Mikesell, 44-year- father of eight children, specializes in studying the scintillation or twinkling of the stars. This was his first balloon ascent
 Observation of the stars from the balloon was different and better than any previous view ing he has had, the astronomer said.
 ''There's quite different look up there," Mikesell added.
 Cmdr. Ross said the landing

SAS Is Fined $2O,OOO In Airways Sandwich War

COPENHAGEN, LR A $2O,OOO fine has been slapped on the Scandinavian Airlines Sys- tenn for an innuendo published during the wordy war of the airborne sandwich. (On the con- structive side, the war produced a ruling on what a sandwich must or must not be)
 An SAS official said tonight the International Air Transport Assn. levied the fine after Trans World Airlines complained about an SAS sales letter saying in part:
 "On our planes you won't find rubbery indigestibles wrapped in cellophane."
 The official said SAS expressed regret about the wording and agreed to pay up.
 The sandwich war blew up recently over the question of what is and what is not a sand Wich.
 Pan American World Airways complained to the IATA that four European airlines were compet- ing unfairly by serving economy flight passengers sandwiches so elaborate they amounted to a fancy meal.
 The IATA at a two-day meet ing in London ruled a sandwich must be: cold, largely of bread or something similar, unadorned, self contained and not include such filings as caviar, oysters and lobster.

Green Navy Guards Threaten To Shoot Reporters At Crash Scene

FL CENTRIC, Calif., R - The Navy has apologized for gun toting guards who threatened to shoot newspaper reporters and photographers at the scene of a jet crash.
 The guards were green and overly conscientious and their actions yesterday reflected their individual feelings and not those of the Navy, Capt. Ben Moore Jr., commanding officer of the aux Hilary air station here, said in a press statement.
 The guards ordered the news paper representatives away from the crash of an FJ3 Fury jet in a cotton field not on military prop erty.
 The pilot, who was returning from a routine gunnery flight, was killed.

 In Balloon In Space Travel Test

was a textbook landing" Del icate equipment aboard was un- damaged.
 Ross, veteran balloonist, was impressed with the way Mike sell described the heavenly bod ies they saw-the moon, Saturn, Mars and other planets and stars.
 Ut was just wonderful listen ing to him describe these things as he viewed them," Ross said.
 In Washington, a Navy medical officer said flight data suggested a possible built-in hazard in a pressure-breathing arrangement, which had been designed as a safety factor.
 The ascent provided the first test of techniques that some day will be used to record mems physical reactions in an orbiting satellite.
 Heartbeats, respiration and other physical reactions were re- corder by radio and piped 1900 miles by telephone to a Naval Medical Research Institute near Washington, D. c.
 Between their $50 pm. as- cent from an open mine pit near Crosby, Minn last night and their 8:26 am. landing today, the balloonists crossed parts of Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois. They were in a small fibreglass basket, open to the air

WASHINGTON, LR - Presi- dent Eisenhower says COP pros poets are bright and the party can win, if it works, in the No- vember election. But he left himself free today to withhold his support from Republicans who do not support his program.
 Teeing off the party's 1858 election campaign, Eisenhower said last night that, in a nut shell, the Republican case be- fore America is responsive, re- sponsible government at home plus effective support for pro prams essential to Americas peace and security in this gravely menaced world"
 But the President exhorted Democrats and Republicans alike to line up against what he termed the evil force of tyrannical Com munist imperialism and push through Congress his world trade, foreign aid and military reorgan- ization plans.
 In a new era of great un- easiness and ''balanced terror in the world" he said, tour national survival and human liberty are

Chamber Will Urge Earlier
 Sailing list Boat

The members of the North western Alaska Chamber of Com merce discussed the summer boat sailings to the Seward Pen insula at their regular weekly meeting. Requests will be sent to the Alaska Steamship Com pany urging that the first boat sails at an earlier date and the last boat at a later date. It was noted that each year the first boat arrives later and it is be- coming a hardship to the mer- chants and others in the com munity.
 Sometimes it takes someone from out of town to see the pro- gress made in an organization such as Girl Scouts, stated Mrs. Tom Brady, executive director of the Girl Scout Council from Fairbanks and a guest at the Chamber luncheon. She contin- ued with the statement that two years ago there were four troops in Nome and now there are nine, with two troops in Teller.

Much Ado
 About A Megaphone

WASHINGTON, tR - The Air Force, after extensive research, confirmed today what every cheerleader knows-that a mega phone is a big help in a big noise.
 The study was undertaken to determine scientifically if a mega phone could be a solution to this vexing problem:
 How to make important mes sages understood, without shout ing, in the vicinity of jet air craft or other loud noises.

 The approaching decisions on the three key legislative items he named, Eisenhower said, "de- mand our attention as Americans, without regard to partisanship" because they are of grave inn portance to the nation and world peace.
 Yet all three are encountering rough going on capitol hill-and some members of the Presidents own party are helping make it rough. Only yesterday a House committee halted work on recip- rocal trade extension and called on Eisenhower for compromise proposal.
 At a dinner honoring Repub- licans in Congress, Eisenhower wound up with this political fore cast and promise:
 ''If we will but try-if we will never forget the value of good, hard Work-we are certain, with our record, to win next Novem- Der. This is the sure road to a Republican 18th Congress.

Chamber Seeks To Aid Alaska Salmon Fishery

chamber Adops Resolution To Aid Flight of Alaska Salmon Fishery
 The plight of the Salmon in- dustry in Alaska came in for con- siderable discussion at the Charnb- er of Commerce meeting held at the Island Fountain Thursday noon.
 A resolution was adopted by the group, similar to one adopted by all the Chambers of Commerce in Alaska, in an effort to halt Japa- nese fishermen from taking i'm mature salmon stocks in the Paci- ffc. John Gibbons, President o' the Chamber of Commerce, spoke at length on the situation and quoted extensively from a talk given by A. w. Brindle before the Ketchi- kan Chamber off Commerce.
 The action was taken following the reading of letter from C. '. Cloudy, President of the Alaska Chamber of Commerce, and urging the local Chamber to write the Assistant Secretary Of State in protest. "The gravity of the situa- tion cannot be overstated," Cloudy stated in his letter. Unless action iS taken by the appropriate gov eFnment agencies of the United States to be effective before the xt2rt of the 1858 fishing season, the only action thereafter appro- priate would be expressions of sympathy for dead industry
 The resolution adopted by the Chamber points out the Interna- tional agreement between Canada, the United States and Japan. pro vides that the Japanese recognize fhe exclusive right of the United States and Canada to saImo- of North American origin, ant that aH parties to the treaty agreed to actively encourage and promote conservation of the North Pacific Salmon Stock.
 The resolution further states that as result of studies conduct eil by both the Fisheries Research Institute and the U. s. Fish and Wldlife Service conclusively eS- tablish that the Japanese are in direct violation of the treaty in two respects. The major portion If their annual North Pacific catch is made up of salmon stocks of North A ericaD origin. The second violation is taking of i'm mature fish.
 The resolution further goes on to state that this evidence has Aeen brought to the, attention of the Japanest Commissioners, but
