PROMOTION BILL-A House
Civil Service subcommittee has
S C h e d VI e d h e earings next
Wednesday on the bill to in
crease the initial cash value of
Government employe promo
tions.
Representative Dulski, Demo-
crat of New York, is chairman
of the subcommittee. Prompt
and favorable subcommittee &C

committee can approve the
measure the following day.

TRAVEL ALLOWANCE BILL
= The Senate leadership has
scheduled Senate action within
the next few days on the bill
to raise the present $12 a day
maximum Government employe
travel allowance to SIG, and the
present 10 cents automobile
mileage to IL cents. The House
already has approved the bill.
This is one measure that is sure
of becoming law this year.

RETIREMENT FUND A
House Civil Service subcommit-
tee has approved a bill de-
signed to strengthen the civil
service retirement fund by Civ
ing it $100 million a year more
in interest yield from its invest
ment in Treasury bonds.
The Senate has approved a
bill to increase the funds in
terest rate, but over a 15-year
maturity return basis. Th e
House group amended the Sen
ate bill to provide that the
higher interest rate apply to all
its Treasury bond investments
starting January /. 1862. At
that time the funds holdings
would be reinvested at the high
er interest rate. Thus. the re-
tirement system would get $100
million a year more in its in
terest return, as compared to
the sc million a year more it
would get under the terms OF
1.-THE Senate bill.

measure and the House units
bill would increase the present
.2.78 per cent interest rate the
fund now receives to the regular
market yield rate which is now
about 3.78 per cent. Represent
ative Olsen, Democrat of Mon
tana, is chairman of the House
subcommittee.
Incidentally, the move to in
clude provision requiring
automatic appropriations by
Congress to the retirement fund
whenever its funds dipped to a
certain level, was abandoned
when the House Appropriations
Committee objected. The provi-
sion was similarly deleted from
the Senate bill for the same
reason - t h e appropriations
committees of Congress feel
that they have sole jurisdiction
over the appropriation of funds.

OKAYED - A House Civil
Service subcommittee has ap-
proved a bill to provide cash to
survivors or estates of deceased
postal employees for all unused
compensatory time that has
accumulated at the time Of the

Household
Raid Alarm
Device Ready

KANSAS CITY. July 81
(AP) An air raid warning
system for householders, men
toned by President Kennedy in
his speech to the Nation Tues
day night, was developed at the
Midwest Research Institute in
Kansas City.
The device, called the Ma
tional Emergency Alarm Re-
peater CNEAR), is a little box
that can be plugged into an
electrical outlet in any home
and can be sold for less
than $40.
Henry Brown, electronics en-
gineer at the office of Civil
and Defense Mobilization in
Battle Creek, Mich, confirmed
yesterday that President Ken
Inedy was speaking about
NEAR.
DR.. Charles N. Kimball, Mid
west Research president, said ::
"All the research and devel-
opment has been done. The
next step would be putting it
into production"
However, in order to operate
the alarm system, power sub
stations would have to be
equipped with generators to
convert part Of the regular CO.
cycle power into the special
signal.
DR.. Kimball and Harold L.
Stout, who has been in charge
of the project. said the equip
ment could be installed Ma
tion-wide at an expense of 81
a home.
Earlier this month Midwest
was awarded an 100000 con-
tract for a study in Detroit
with the objective of installing
the system. The pilot study
will cover the southern half of

Milt Plum, and take some Of

Brown said he had not de-

as a flanker or slot end, but
the veteran coach said he
thought the 6-foot-4, 207-

Bill Reinhart recalls that
when he was growing up the
basketball rules makers legis-
lated dribbling out of the game.
That was back around World
War I and the ban lasted three
months or so.
The George Washington
coach wishes the squelch on
dribbling would last something
like three centuries. Last night
at Fort Myer, for instance. CIV
might not have wasted so much
time and energy before pulling
out to a 105-85 decision over
Virginia Military, if somebody
had only abolished all that
'thump, thump," AS Reinhart
prefers to call it.
Reinhart explains his alb
horrence of the "thump thump"
phase this way: The guy drib-
bling doesn't know what to do
with the ball. That's why he's
dribbling. And if he doesn't
know what he's doing, what are
the other four guys going to be
thinking?"
Adamitis Gets Hot
Anyway, the Colonials were
trailing by as much as 4 points
early before they began moving
the ball as Reinhart wanted it.
They worked it into Joe Adami-
tiS more frequently and the g.
foot-8 sophomore wrecked the
KeydetS with % of his 30 points
before halftime.
AdamitiS personally outscored
VMI. 10 to 2, in one stretch
pumping in 7 in succession to
dissolve a 1926 tie, which was
to be the games last deadlock.
At $3.50 VMI turned to a zone
defense in an effort to cool off
Adamitis. then Jon Feldman
took over. Jon had been held
to 6 points by the close guard
ing Of Gene Lazaroff but
against the zone he added %,
hitting on II of 81 field goal
tries altogether.
CIV didn't dominate the re-
bounding as greatly as expected,
recovering 81 rebounds to 49
by the smaller but hustling
Keydets. But CIV connected
on 40 of 80 shots while VMI
clicked on just 35 of l0l.
Errors Frequent
The disparity in shooting ac-
curacy made up for the CO.
lonialS' insistence on giving up
the ball. At least l8 times they
lost possession without getting
off a shot. Reinhart shrugged
