MORE BUSINESS MORE DEMANDS

DAA'ID03
THFSE ISLANDS are in for big things. AS time moves
on the demands of a modern. fast life will present themselves
in such a manner that failure to meet them will either force
US to change, or leayeus standing still. Andmost Of this will
come through touism, the one phase Of our economic life
which moves the switest and is most dramatic.
GREAT, LUXURY HOTELS are being built, involving
millions Of dollars. These investments would not be made
unless there was reasonable probability Of fair return. Good
businessmen do not operate in any other way. With these
hotels, for example, will come work, and opportunities for
economic Improvement in many other ways.
THESE ISLANDS ARE making great strides every day.
However, these strides may be 50 great and SO rapid that
many are not even aware Of il. That type of situation can
tend to retard,. instead Of taking the proper steps. If we are to
move at the proper rate, then the whole picture will have to
be seen, and acted unon.
WITH MORE PEOPLE coming to these shores to visit,
every phase of business will have to sit up, take notice, and
plan to meet the increased volume Of buying. These people
are going to need everything under the sun, clothing food,
tools and everything Tourists coming will need services, and
unless these services are available our position viii be serious
" hampered, and in the end hurt.
HERE AGAIN, IS another example Of the need for care
full planning, the type which will forsee the needs, economic,
social, and otherwise, and come up with the ideas and sugges7
tons for the future. Every time we make one step forward,
life becomes more complicated, which in turn means that the
entire community will have that much more responsibility to
live up to the new challenge.
IN THESE VERY columns the question has been asked
whether Of not We are prepared for the type Of program which
the Kennedy Administration IS bound to present to us. If we
are not ready, then we had better be, for if we are not we
cannot then make any demands, Or even ask for anything

Taylor Wins
School Golf
Hard Wuy

Dick Taylor won the 28th
Metropolitan Schoolboy golf
championship the hard way.
In three of his five matches,
against Ricky Meissner, Ray
Melenson. and in the finals at
Westbriar yesterday against
Danny Boone, he wasn't con-
ceded much of a chance.
He went 20 holes in both
semifinals and finals.
And his victory was the
biggest surprise in the history
of the event according to Frank
Emmet, who has promoted
them all.
Taylor, who hasn't been able
to make his Bethesda Chevy
Chase High team, brought the
title to Bethesda for the ninth
time in beating Boone, his
schoolmate. 1t was the second
straight year that Boone lost
in the finals.
Taylor, who was about seven
over par for yesterdays 20
holes, was a tiger throughout
the tournament. He appeared
slightly nervous at times, but
in the tight spots and the extra
holes he was in command. Only
in his first-round match
against Sev Leoffler, which he
won, 8 and 2, did he win q
match before the final hole.
Taylor has been in Emmet's
Junior golf program since he
was Is. but this was his first
prize Of any consequence. And
now that he has won the big
one he Is over-age at 1s. for
most Of the junior tournaments
this summer.
s The match produced q pair
Of spectacular shots. Taylor
holed a 155-yard seven iron shot
on the par four 18th for an
eagle deuce, and on the next
hole Boone came back to sink
8 40-foot chip for q birdie to
cut Taylor'S lead to l up.
S. Boone won Is and 10 with
pars to square the match, but
after halving the 10th in bogey
fives, Boone knocked his tee
shot in the pond to the left on
the 20th hole.

together and dropped a 5-foot
putt for an eagle three on the
18th. Dempsey and Roberts had
the misfortune to take nine
each on the fourth hole Of the
qualifying round and they
missed the title flight.
Putter Shaft Snaps
Harvey spent part Of the day
putting with his two-iron after
swapping his putter shaft on
the eighth hole Of the morning
round. He was attempting to
straighten the shaft when 1t
broke. He putted with his two
iron and played par golf until

NASA already has briefed 1,20G contractor representatives on technical details of it's Apollo Project to land men on the Moon.
 Contractor proposals are to be submitted next month, and NASA plans to award the first Apollo research and development con- tracts late this year.
 The plan is for three-man Apol- 10 teams to orbit the earth per haps as early as 1864, fly around the Moon possibly in 1864, and land on the Moon late in 1866 or in 1867.
 NASA already has awarded the Martin Co.,, Baltimore, a con- tract to study the launch vehicle requirements for a Lunar land ing, and also establishment of a permanent 12-man Lunar base.
 The launching vehicle, with it's Apollo craft, would weigh more than 100 tons standing on the pad.
 Earth orbital flights of the Apol- 10 craft, or flights around the Moon and back, will be launched by Saturn rockets 160 feet tall.
 For Lunar landings a 22-engine rocket of 12 million pounds thrust will be required.
 The size, power, shattering noise and potential danger of the Saturn and Nova rockets are the reasons for the current search for launching sites providing great CT isolation and public safety than is currently available.

 Among potential sites already inspected are the Gulf Coast near BroWnsdale, Tex, the White Sands Proving Ground in New Mexico, Christmas Island in the Pacific, and an area in Hawaii.
 A spokesman for NASA said the site study team is also making a thorough review of the possible adaptation of present launching installations at Cape Canaveral, Fla, and Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif., for the much larger and more powerful rockets for Moon and planetary research.
 No decision has been made, and the studies are continuing" he said.

 Complete l,2OO- Mile Trip to Juneau

JUNEAU LR - Twelve weary weathered canoeists S trok d through blustery wind and rain into Juneau Wednesday, con- pleted a 1.200-mile, 53-day trip from Tacoma.
 Jim Horton, 15-year-old son of MT. and Mrs. Hugh Horton of Kennewick, summed it up for the group as he put down his paddle for the last time:
 Tt was a swell trip, but I'll never do it again"
 The faces of the adventurers were turned to deep, nut-broWn tan by wind and sun during their long trip north through Alaska's inside passage.
 Twelve persons, including four counselors and eight boys ranging in age from 13 to IT, started out on the trip June 10.
 The first three canoes arrived at 4 p. m. Wednesday afternoon. The other two canoes pulled into Juneau about three hours later. Taku Inlet is approximately l2 miles southeast of Juneau.
 "We had good weather most of the way,' Dr. A. L. Schultz of Tacoma, wiry, silver-haired man, said, holding calloused hand to tender back muscle and rain.
 'We ate good all of the way, with plenty of steamed clans and crabs to fill out the menu.
 Robert Schildknecht of Fresno, Calf, at 13, was the youngest member of the group of adven- turerS.
 The others, besides Schultz, Horton and young Schildknecht, were Gary Davis, counselor and law student at the University of Chicago; Ralph Perry, counselor and law student at Stanford Uni versity; Neal Killion, a profes- sional photographer from San Diego;
 George Heilig, IT, Portland; George Hopkins, IT, San Bernar- dino; Mike Ellis, Is, Palm Springs; David Aasen, IT, Longview, Wn.; and Chuck Hufford and Tommy Wicks, both 17-year-old residents of Tacoma.
