Beer EIudes Policemen
In Fort Dupont Park

About rs policemen stalked
through Fort Dupont Park early
today in search of an arrogant
black bear.
The officers, from the 14th
precinct, the Park Police and
the Armed Services Police, be-
gan the hunt shortly after mid
night, armed with two 30 80
rifles, "paralyzing" gun that
fires gas pellets and a German
shepherd dog.
Their quarry was believed to
be the same animal that
repeatedly appeared mysteri-
ously and then sneaked away
from 80 carbine bearing airmen
at Andrews Air Force Base
Monday night.
This mornings hunt started
after Park Police Pvt. A.. v.

motor patrol along Randle
drive in the western part Of
Fort Dupont Park, reported
sighting the bear numbering up
the road.

yards up the drive" Pvt. Como

weighed about 200 pounds, and

Two Monkeys Survive
|, 5OO-MiIe Space Trip
Contuct Kept;
NoseCone
Recovered

CAPE CANAVERAL, May %
(AP).-Two monkeys returned
alive today from a 1,50O-mile
fight in the nose cone of an
Army missile.
The Army announced that
both monkeys were recovered
alive from compartments in
the nose cone Of q Jupiter mis-
sile fired from Cape Canaveral.
The rocket had climbed to an
altitude of 800 miles and flown
at speeds UP to 10000 miles
per hour.
The little female monkeys
named Able and Baker are the
first living creatures the United
States has hurled into the
farther reaches and brought
back alive.
The Russians claim to have
brought back two dogs by para
chute last August from a ride
281 miles out. And the United
States Air Force in 1858 re-
covered two monkeys after FIR
ing them some 40 miles high
over New Mexico.
The feat represents a major
breakthrough in the United
States effort to put a man into
orbital flight.
Little Harm Indicated
Scientists said instruments
attached to the small passen-
gers showed they suffered little
Ill effect from the stresses Of
blast-off and the experience of
weightlesSneSs for some nine
minutes Of the 15-minute
journey.
Only the bare announcement
that the monkeys survived was
contained in the initial report
received by the Army from a
Navy ship which recovered the
nose cone. This was near the
island Of Antigua. 90 minutes
after the Jupiter scared up.
Technicians explained that
the delay was the result Of the
need to undo q mechanical
maze in opening the passenger
compartment.
II had been known previ.
0usly. through radio signals
from the nose cone, that the
monkeys were alive and well
one minute before their landing
in the water.
Late Signals Lapse
But for the last minute sig
mails failed, an occurrence not
at all unusual as a space rocket
drops below the horizon.
Both animals are alive and
perfect with no injuries" the
Army announced 6la hours
after the launching.
One important scientific
check failed because of telem-
etry difficulties.
Able had been trained in re-
spouse tests to push a telegraph
key at the flash of a red light
in her capsule.
The light was set to blink
once each second during the
fight. and medical scientists
said Able became very prof.
cient, in training, at responding.
The scientists especially
wanted to know how she re-
Nsponded in the period Of
weightlessness. That would be
important in relation to what
might be expected of men re-
leased from the gravitational
pull of the earth.
Instruments did record and
relay information on such mat
tiers as heartbeat and breathing
rate.

Spur Efforts
Hopes Geneva TuIks
Make Summit
PorIey Useful
BY EARL H. vOSS and
GARRETT ID. HORNER
star star writers

President Eisenhower told the
Big Four foreign ministers
today he hopes their Geneva
conference will achieve suffi-
icient progress to make a later
summit meeting desirable and
useful"
The President stressed in a
half hour conference with Sec
rotary of State Herter and the
Soviet, British and French
foreign ministers, the "neces-
sity Of finding peaceful solu-
tons" to East West problems
in Europe.
There was no official word
on how far Mr.. Eisenhower
went in spelling out to Russia s
Andrei Gromyko the kind Of
progress he considers necessary
before he would go to a sum-
NIT meeting with Soviet Pre-
mier Khrushchev.
Sees Little Progress
It seemed clear, however,
from a formal White House
statement. that the President
felt there has not been suffi-
Gent progress so far in the
Geneva foreign ministers con-
ference to make a summit ses-
sion desirable or useful"
Mr.. Gromyko, a smiling
spokesman for the visiting for
eign ministers, told reporters
as he and his British and
French colleagues left the White
House that 1--WE had 3 very
pleasant and useful CONVERSE
ton" with the President.
French Foreign Minister
Maurice Couve de Murville,
standing at Mr.. Gromyko's right
shoulder, added that that was
all the ministers would have to
say.
British Foreign Secretary
Selwyn Lloyd, standing on the
other side of Mr.. Couve de Muir
vile from Mr.. Gromyko. chimed
in that what the Soviet for
eign minister had said was a
"tri-partite statement"
Smiling and nodding, Mr..
Gromyko explained that every
body is in agreement" on his
short statement.
GrOmykO Hopeful
/ A reporter trailing Mr.. Gro
myko to his waiting limousine,
asked him if he hopes for prog
ress at the Geneva confer
ence.
Saying that he was speaking
for himself now. the Soviet
spokesman said I'VE would like
to see success"
! The Russian, British and
French foreign ministers were
returning to Geneva this after
noon as guests aboard Secretary
Herter's plane to resume their
discussions in a secret meeting
tomorrow at Mr.. Lloyd's Geneva
villa.
Before departing Washing
ton, they returned to the White
House at 1890 pm. for a stag
luncheon the President gave fol
them and several other foreign
statesmen who came here to

School Lunch
Fund Backed
Senate Approval
Seen Of $266 900
BY GRACE BAssETT
star stan Writer

Senate leaders today agreed
to recommend $4,000 for Dis
trict elementary school lunches
and brought the issue to the
brink of a vote on the Senate
floor.
Then Senator Gore, Democrat
of Tennessee. unexpectedly de-
manded time to address the
Senate on tight money.
This delayed the vote but
could not cancel what obviously
had been established BY morn
ing debate--a precedent-setting
Senate approval Of an elemen-
tary school lunch program
here.
Pending is a deficit-free Dis
trict budget of $241.569, 402,
carrying a controversial $3.50,
900 to build the first leg of a
freeway through Glover-Arch-
bold Park.
Senator Douglas. Democrat Of
Illinois, suggested that the
parkway money be dropped and
funds transferred to pay for
school lunches. Such trans
fers cannot be made in the
budget set up now with separate
general and highway funds.
But Senator Douglas pointed
out that the Commissioners, by
supporting the parkway. would
destroy beauty and thus favor
the worst of all possible
worlds. :"
$50 Million Sought
Three times Senator Gore
offered amendments to the Dis
trict budget. which includes
the school money for the year
beginning July /. Each time
the Tennessee Democrat was
ruled out of order by the tenn
porary presiding officer, Sena-
tor Proxmire, Democrat of Wis
conSin.
First Senator Gore tried to
prevent the school money from
being financed by the Federal
payment. He next moved to
strike a figure in the total
school budget. Frustrated by
advice of the parliamentarian
to Senator Proxmire, Senator
Gore then insisted that the
Federal payment by $50 million
rather than the s27 million
