Alexandria's newly elected
City Council last night re-
affirmed the city's longtime
dream of once again becoming
a thriving deep water sea port
The council unanimously
pledged Alexandria will develop
its waterfront to accommodate
ocean-going vessels if Congress
approves the $40 million Fed
eral project of widening anc
deepening the Potomac Chan
mel from the city to the CheSa-
peake.
The council also agreed to
hold the Government free from
any damages resulting from the
channel job and pledged ii
would provide any land neces-
Sary for construction work.
The three-point pledge was
drafted by Col. George B. Sum-
ner, retired chief of Army En-
gineers here, as part of a re-
view of the city'S port devel-
opment efforts.
Col. Sumner said if CONGRESS
includes the channel projects
in an omnibus public works bill
next session and funds are al
lotted late in 1868. the two-to-
four-year dredging job would
begin in mid-1964. He said the

Plans for Alaska
 Exhibit at Century Fl Exposition Announced

SEATTLE lR = Plans for an Alaska exhibit at Seattle's 1862 Century 21 Exposition were an- nounced Thursday by Bob Hen ming, editor and publisher of the Alaska Sportsman magazine.
 Henning said space has been optioned in the Exposition Sta dium for an exhibit emphasizing "space on earth" as a twist on the Century 21 space age theme.
 Plans call for miniature Wildnerness area built around an authentic totem house.
 Although the Alaska Legisla- ture turned down appropriations for an official Alaska exhibit, Henning said he would seek CO., operation of the states officials and major organizations.
 In Juneau, State Commerce Commissioner Romick said the State Division of Tourism and Economic Development would give Henning's project help through advertising and publicity.
 'We are hoping that the next session of the Legislature will ap- prove a supplemental appropri- ation to permit the state to take part financially as we'll" Romick said.

US. Hurls First Atomic Battery Into Space

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. R - The United States has hurled the first atomic battery into space as part of a spectacular sky-high triple play in which one rocket rammed three satellites into orbit.
 The successful orbiting of the nuclear device in one of the satel- lites gives American scientists significant lead over the Soviet Union in the race to harness atomic power for space explora- ton.
 A Thor-Able-Star Rocket blast ed off from Cape Canaveral We'd nesday with the satellites stacked in it's nose like a three-scoop ice cream cone.
 Both stages of the 50-ton rocket clicked with drill-like precision and flung the entire package into orbit.
 Officials reported early yester- day that the atomic battery was functioning and that clear signals were being transmitted by all three packages.
 This was the first time the triple payload technique was at- tempted. It raised to 43 the num- Der of U. s. satellites placed into orbit since the first went alOft fl months ago.
 The 412-pound nuclear unit was attached to the base of the largest satellite. This is transit A, 175- pound forerunner of the Navy satellite system designed to pro- vide ships, planes and submarines with accurate, all-weather navi- gation.
 The other satellites were:
 A 55-pound sphere nicknamed Greb which carried two detectors to measure X-ray radiation from the sun.
 Injun, a 4G-pound drum-shaped parcel to measure intense radia- ton belts and to report an Aurora phenomena such as the Northern Lights.
 But the starring role went to the grapefruit-sized atomic unit whose hot core contained a small amount of plutonium 238, a radio-isotope which generated heat up to 1000 degrees fahren- heit. Thermoelectric rods con- verted the heat to electrical en- ergy which sent 2.5 watts of power to two of four radio trans mitters and some instruments in transit A.
 The United States thus scored a historic beat over the Soviet Union in sending the first nuclear power unit into space. Once per fected, these atomic batteries will provide satellites with unlimited power supply and permit com munication with vehicles fired deep into the universe.

Or. Weaver has waited many years
for the opportunity to complain that
he could not find his dreruncdtor.
Unfortunately it is always in the barn
where he left it - an averruncator is
a type of pole with pruning shears
on the end.
He has been equally frustrated by
the failure of persons to ask what the
handle of his scythe is called. But
sOmedGy someone tCiH ask, and he'll
be ready ,cith the Gnswer: the han
die of a scythe is snGth.
In his most scholarly moments, DR..
Weaver goes in for collecting double
and triple technical names. He has
discovered that ornithologists call the
English wren Tr0giOdytes-tT ogtodytes,
and that there is a germ known to
medical science as Chdos-chdoS. Better
still, can you guess what Ratus ratuS
ratuS is? Just the commonest type of
rat.
And, of course, DR.. Weaver col
lects beautiful words. These fall into
two classes: words that are beauti-
full in both sound and connotation
golden, hush, lullaby, ddmaSk), and
words that are beautiful in sound
alone luminous, dnemOne). Perhaps
he'd care to add a couple of odd-ball
words to his list. The late Ring Lard

ear. Ind isn't it SpOrtStcriter ''Red"

favorite research are much too scan

And the most shocking thing about
