BLM to Receive Over
So Billion from Mineral
Leasing in 52-Year Period
By Ward Sims
Associated Press Staff Writer

JUNEAU up - The Bureau of
Land Management has estimated
that it will receive 1921, 305, 900
from its mineral leasing acti-
vities in Alaska during the 81
year period between 1861 and
2012.
Alaska's share will be 90 per
cent, under the present formula
The estimate is included in a
comprehensive survey of BLM
operations throughout the nation.
The survey, entitled project
Twenty-Twelve," has just been re-
ceived by state officials.
Total receipts from BLM opera
tors in Alaska are estimated at
1920, 1881, 900 during the 52-year
period. The BLM has jurisdiction
over 299,431,839 of Alaska's 1865
million acres of federal land.
BLM receipts come from five
major sources within Alaska -
sales of public lands and materi-
ais, fees and commissions, mineral
leasing, grazing fees and timber
sales.
A sixth source of income in
Alaska is forecast starting 2012.
That will be mineral leasing of
outer continental shelf areas.

Two Maritime Unions
Agree on Assistance Pact
With Transfers Union

WASHINGTON Up = Two ALL
CLIO Maritime Unions agreed today
to enter a permanent mutual as
sistance pact with the Transfers
Union.
The agreement was reached at
a meeting of Presidents Joseph
Curran of the National Maritime
Union, and William V. Bradley
of the international Longshore-
mems Assn, both affiliated with
the AFL-CIO, and James R. Hoffa
of the Teamsters.
The Transfers were ousted from
the AFL-CIO more than three
years ago n grounds of alleged
corrupt domination. Since then
the AFL-CIO has forbidden its
affiliates to enter into mutual aid
pacts with the Transfers such
as was agreed upon by the Mari
time Unions today.
Hoffa and Bradley pledged full
support to Curran in the National
Maritime Unions current contract
negotiations with shipping firms.
The three unions also agreed
to formally enter a mutual as
sistance pact aimed at promoting
long-term stability and progress in
the maritime segment of the trans
portation industry.

Veteran Auto Racer
Tony Bettenhausen Killed
At indianapolis Speedway

INDIANAPOLIS R Tony
Bettenhausen, champion American
auto racer was killed today in a
crash on the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway.
The 44-year-old FINLEY Park,
H., driver crashed into the main
stretch retaining wall. His car
was upside down on the wall
across from the pit area.
Only Thursday Bettenhausen
had turned the fastest practice
lap ever recorded on the speed
way, over 149 miles an hour.
Bettenhausen, veteran of IA
indianapolis 5O0-Mile races and
% years of racing starts, was dead
when guards fought their way
through screaming fans to lift the
battered car off a retaining wall.
Bettenhausen died in his 29th
wreck.
He was making test run in
car assigned to his old friend,
Paul Russo, with whom he shared
second place in the 1857 speed
way classic.
Something went wrong as the
car came out of the northwest
turn. The car leaped into a guard
fence, wrapped itself in wire, and
caught fire as it finally came
to stop atop the main straight
aWay's outside wall.
He was national champion on
the AAA (now USAC big car
circuit in 1851 and 1858. He had
won more races on that circuit,
81, than any other driver.
Tony said he would quit for

Memorial Day race, but he never
did.
The veteran driver is survived
by his widow and four children.
Bettenhausen's death was the
53rd at the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway since it opened in 1909.
The toll, including deaths before
the first 500-Mile race in 1911,
included 80 drivers, IA mechanics
and 9 spectators.

rambling script by Paul Gegauff
its display of self pity by the
whole mumbling, stumbling
cast. The raw and sometimes
painful realism this school of
movie-making som e i'm
achieves. however, is completely
diSSipated by the use of color

Color is just too festive for
dreary realism to have any va
lidity. NJ. Chabrel's intention
may have been to point up the
dramatic contrast between his
drab story and the beauty of
the south of France in color,
which certainly could have
seemed like a good idea at the
time. Unfortunately the only
genuine emotion he arouSes in
"Leda" is an urge to give every
one involved a boot in the seat
Of the pants.

The people of "Leda" are the
lost souls customarily encoun-
tered in New Wave fables. At
their center is a typical New
Wave family father who has
found true middle age love in

who makes it easier every day
for him to Succumb to tempta-
ton, daughter who has fallen
in love with an unwashed beat

music on the phonograph.

After awhile everybody re-
turns for lunch, only to have
the meal interrupted by as
founding news. Leda est mort
Somebody has done her in. She
is stone cold murdered in her
