3-NoveIs-in-1, a New
Publishing Venture

THREE SHORT NOVELS.
BY Fairbairn, Fuller and
Mandel. (Random House;
$3.50
Short novels have a diff
cult time finding themselves
in print. They are too long
for magazines and too short
for full-length book publica-
ton. But Random House has
answered the problem with a
single volume containing
three short novels by differ
ent authors.
The novels have little in
common with each other ex-
cept for size.
Dramatic Conflict
The first, 1.-THE Voice of
Charlie Pont" by Douglas
Fairbairn is a Skillfully ex-,
ecuted portrait of a rootless
moocher, Charlie Pont. Char
lie lives an insecure existence
as a charmer, charming his
way into his Harvard alumni
friends homes throughout
the world, from one to an
other as the charm wears off.

ror Of war, to hallucinationS,
to the reality Of the present.
1t is well worth buying the
whole book for this one.
If this collection meets with
success Random House prom
ises to publish a similar vol
ume yearly. This may not
only help the short novel out
Of its present plight but may
be a convenient way Of in
Producing promising new
novelistS as this volume does.

back. legs straight and arms
resting on the floor overhead.
Keep your elbows straight

stay close to the floor. Clap
your hands together as your
legs come together. Continue.
slowly taking time for the

Front Bend
The old standby. the front
bend. is a good exercise if
you do it correctly. Most
women do not give enough
attention or time to the up

US. May Fire
 Nuclear Tests in The Atmosphere

WASHINGTON R = American nuclear tests in the atmosphere will be necessary shortly if the Soviets fail to accept President Kennedy's new challenge to halt atmospheric shots. Sen. Henry M. Jackson, D-Wn.), said yesterday.
 Jackson, who heads a Senate House Atomic Weapons Subcom- mittee, said Kennedy was taking a calculated, but relatively minor, risk when he told the United Ma tions Monday this country and Great Britain are prepared to sign immediately a treaty to ban test ing of all kinds. The Soviets have rejected the proposed treaty.
 Kennedy noted the West also had proposed to end atmospheric testing, without inspection or con- trol, "in order to save the human race from the poison of radioactive fallout."
 The Soviets. already have fired Is atmospheric shots since they broke the three-year moratorium on tests. The United States has set off two underground explo- sions.
 Some fears had been expressed by administration officials that once the Soviets had completed their series of tests they would announce they were ready to ban further atmospheric detonations and thus force the United States to reject their proposal or face the possibility of falling behind in nuclear weaponry
 Jackson said that while it will be long time before the results of the Soviet explosions can be assessed fully, he does not believe US. superiority in the field thu: far has been threatened.
 sBut if the Russians continue these tests, we are going to have l to make similar ones," he said.

Northern Consolidated

WASHINGTON B Northern Consolidated Airlines, Anchorage, has paid a $500 fine for what the Federal Aviation Agency de- scribed as a deliberate violation more than two years ago.
 The FAA said Northern Con- s5lidated put a twice-a-week DC-3 schedule into effect July l., 1859, between Bethel and Cape Newenham, Alaska, and operated such a flight the following July 12 even though the Cape Newen- ham Airport had not been, ap- proved by the FAA for airline use. The FAA did not indicate whether there had been similar flights on any other date.
 FAA said the airport at Cape Newenham is one-way and on an 8 per cent grade so that planes must land uphill to the south end take off downhill to the north.

Nixon to Answer the Big Question Tonight

LOS ANGELES B = Richard M. Nixon steps before televised news conference tonight to answer the big question-will he run for governor of California next year?
 Even his closest advisors profess sed not to know in advance whether it would be yes or no. At least they weren't talking.
 Everything seemed to point toward campaign by the 1860 Republican Presidential nominee to dump Democratic Gov. Edmund G. Brown.
 There was the careful staging of the announcement, the steady buiidup of a draft Nixon" cla- nor within the state COP, little hints here and there.
 But, just as easily, puzzled guessers could make out a sound case for decision by Nixon, AS, not to chance his political future with state voters who are better than 3-2 Democratic.
