TEXT OF KENNEDY
STATEMENT
Following is the tert of
President Kennedy'S state
nlent on the Russian note.

OttONtttS 50 CtO GCIL W
President Kennedy'S state
ment on the Russian note:
Although the Soviet reply
contains certain observations
with which we cannot agree, il
offers hope that a way can be
found to establish a neutra,
and independent Laos through
negotiations.
The first need is to bring
the present fighting in Laos
to an end; we think that this
can be achieved if all interested
governments, including the So
Wet Union, use their influence
to bring this about.
Negotiations for a settle
ment of the Laotian question
will not be simple and may
take some time, but the United
States will do everything it can
to reach a result which will
permit the Laotian people to
live in peace and take care of
their own affairs.
THE Soviet reply appears to
be a useful next step toward a
peaceful settlement of a po-
tentially dangerous situation.

Cambodia, Burma, Thailand,
South Wet Nam and Laos.
The Russians brought up two
questions on the political fu-
ture of Laos: the makeup Of
the government and whether
it would follow a neutral policy
between East and West.
On the question Of the fu-
ture policy of Laos, they said:
THE invariable position of the
Soviet government was and is
that Laos should be a neutral,
unified, independent and peace
full state, in conformity with
the Geneva accords :"
"Group Of Plotters"
Moscow labeled the present
pro-Western government in
Vientiane ga group Of plotters
relying on outside military as
sistance" who had ended Laos
policy Of neutrality.
AS for the makeup of any
future government, the Soviet
note insisted that "the legiti-
mate government of Prince
Souvanna Phouma" should be
restored to authority in Laos
However. Moscow said all fac
tions in Laos should first try
to work out a nuified govern
ment on their own. The Soviet
Union also did not insist that
Prince Souvanna speak for
Laos at the 14-nation confer
ence, something Britain had
ruled out in advance.
Prince Souvanna, former
neutralist premier of Laos, is
still regarded by the Soviet
Union and the Pathet Lao as
legal premier of Laos. He went
into exile after pro-Western
forces took over Vientiane in
December.

couraged and reassured" by the

The Secretary described the
situation in Laos today as "a
bit confused" so far as he was
concerned. He mentioned news
reports of heavy fighting there.
AS for a possibility of a mes

There, Mrs. James M. Scruggs
and her three children began
to celebrate, after hearing that
Mr.. Scruggs had returned safe
ly to New London aboard the
Polaris submarine George
Washington.
They had had no word from
Mr.. Scrubs. O chief guided
missileman, since the George
Washington left port Novem-
Der IS, and as the sub passed
the 60-day period set for the
tour, their concern grew. They
all decided to save Christmas
until Mr.. Scruggs returned.
That will probably happen

Mr.. Scruggs told his wife in a
telephone call today. Before
the crew can leave the George
Washington, they must turn

For the George Washington's
ITO officers and crew members,
who huddled on deck in the
chilling 13-degree temperature,
the return provided an occa-
sion for q belated Christmas

Fans attending Catholic Youth Night on June 20
will see Columbus Jet team which has surprised
most baseball observers and the rest of the Inter

Sized up in preseason examinations as $3.50
team and even as a second division club by some
the Jets roared away fast enough to hold down the
league lead for 81 days. And they're still in the thick
of first division battle.
u A LARGE MEASURE of the Jet success belongs
to Manager Larry Shepard who has built a reputation
as a sharp baseball s~trategist and able developer of
youthful baseball abilities This is his 18th year as a
manager.
It might be pointed out that his task hasn't been
any too easy the past few weeks. First, star hurler
Tom Parsons got hurt and then the parent Plttsburg
Pirate organization put another big dent in the Jet
club by pulling UP ace pitcher Earl Francis to fill in
while Pirate pitcher George Witt recuperates from an
injury. +
Ascouple of injuries to key players like league
leading hitter Don Leppert, third baseman Dick Gray
and ~shortstop Buddy Pritchard made things all the
more turbulent. And to c%omplicate things there's been
that constant, miserable rain.
But the sill, 1~80-pound manager, who wears No.

ties.
SHEPARD WAS BORN IN LAKEWOOD, OHIO

of the Sally League. After a second division finish
there and two at Williamsport 1884 and 1850 he
moved on to Lincoln and guided the club to the West

In 1858, he moved on to Salt Lake City, where
in three seasons he became noted for taking Pitts
burgh and Columbus player castoffs and forging
them into potent Pacific Coast League teams. His
club finished fifth his first year but he managed Salt
Lake to. the championship using those rejects in
1859 and to third place last season.
When it came time to name a Columbus manager
for this season, Pirate officials made it clear that
Shepard was their No. ! minor league manager and
they wanted him at the Jet helm.
