WITH KHRUSHCHEV IN AMERICA

WASHINGTON, R-The ice of the cold war has not only shown signs of a crack but has started to crumble, Premier Khrushchev said in exchanging toasts with President Eisenhower.
 Although this wine is cold" :" Khrushchevr said as he raised a glass of champagne at an embassy dinner Wednesday night, may our relations become warmer, may the atmosphere become warmed so as to melt the ice of the cold war and ensure favorable conditions of peaceful coexist- ence between states-between our peoples"
 He said he hoped the exchange visits with the President twill further a warm spell in inter national relations. The ice of the cold war has not only already showns signs of a crack but has started to crumble." He did not say which of the cold war issues he thought were crumbling.
 Eisenhower said in his toast to Khrushchev that he hoped their talks mean at least the beginning of the melting of the cold wars ice. He said that perhaps growing understanding between the mass es of the American and Soviet people might help settle interna- tional problems.
 The visit Khrushchev will make to Red China almost immediately after he ends his American tour figured in both toasts. Khrush- chev said T am flying to China, which will celebrate the 10th an- niversary of the Peoples Repub- lie"
 "I am not going for a secret collision, but to celebrate a great national day of peoples China"
 Eisenhower reportedly assured Khrushchev jokingly that he does not plan to visit Red China after his planned trip to the Soviet Union - that he would much rather visit the Russians.
 Khrushchev told Eisenhower, "I do not know whether I have your permission, but we consider you to be our good friend"
 Khrushchev wore a dark busi- ness suit with a light four-in- hand tie. Eisenhower wore a black tie with his dinner jacket.

ASTRONOMY NOTES
 By OLAF HALVERSON

Astronomy binds earth and heavens in so close a bond that it even maps the one by means of the other It guides fleets and caravans over wastes of sea and sand otherwise trackless and inn passable.
 By faithful study, even for short time, it is possible to dis cover many useful purposes for astronomy One of these uses is in chronology-where it is useful in fixing dates of many disputed ancient battles, the reigns of kings and other important historic ev- ents. It is also used to establish the exact length of the units of time required for our calendar.
 The surest basis of the chron- ology of ancient Assyria rests upon an eclipse of the sun ob- served in Ninevah in the middle of the reign of Jerboam II, which modern astronomical calculations prove to have taken place on the 18th of June, 763 B.C.

NAME NEW BABY NIKITA

BELZONI, Miss, R- MT. and Mrs. Eugene Fleming had trouble thinking of a name for their 9th child, born an hour before Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev ar rived Tuesday in Washington.
 "Everybody's talking about Khrushchev," a neighbor said.
 Wednesday night the Flemings decided on name: Nikita. But they will call the boy Nikie for short.

Of Fools and Xmas

Roy Lester may disagree that coaching is
threequarters of football but hardly anyone
will disagree that Lester has done more at
Richard Montgomery with less material, than
anybody at that school in a long time
Il know where you got that business of
coaching being most of football" Lester said to
caller earlier in the season. Warren Giese
said that at clinic down in South Carolina
somewhere. Then he went out and got beat bv
Frank Howard, who everybody knows is the
dumbest coach in football
Howard had the ballplayers and Giese
didn't, and that's all there is to it,"
Lester may be right If he is, then this
Saturday at High Point Richard Montgomery
should find out whether it has ball PLAYERS or
just well drilled boys that fill up uniforms.
At first sight, the 1859 edition of the
Rockets is an eye opener. In the first place,
they're much smaller than in the previous
few seasons. Then the kickoff. Eleven
boys in white (instead of the old black and
gold uniforms race madIy down the field
like runners in hundred yard dash, or
high school boys seeking the last hamburg

This years team at Richard Montgomery
may be smaller but they show more spirit, ag-
gressiveness, and hustle than any squad in
few years. Against Northwestern the Rockets
dished out a physical beating to their larger
opponents that had them Keeling at the end
And then there are some ballplayers Mike
Curtis, 185-pound junior fullback is perhaps
the best in the league and maybe in the area
Kenny Doane is junior quarterback who gains
more polish with each game. Tom Mossberg
and Dick Kaelin, are hard-nosed guards who
can dish it out despite their lack of bulk
Nov don't go gettin' optimistic" Lester
said after the Northwestern game although it
was easy to see that a bit of excitement was
creeping through when he said with smile:
"They played up to themselves today, and
this is the toughest team we've seen so far"

The Rockets haven't had a
