WASHINGTON R = The United States will give the worlds sci- entists about four days notice be- fore firing three missile-borne nu- clear test devices over the Pacific in June or July.
 The Pentagon said yesterday ad- vance word of the three blasts will be given so that geophysicists and other scientists can make measure ments of interest to the scientific community.
 Atmospheric effects of the high altitude blasts could include auro- ral displays bling the Northern Lights over the south seas and interference with Pacific radio communications over a wide area.
 Similar temporary effect follow ed a 1858 blast over Johnston Island It produced spectacular auroral display above Samoa, about 2,000 miles south of the test site. and interferred temporarily with high-frequency radio conmunica- tions over an area extending 2,0O0 miles.
 Distortion of the earth's mag netic field by atomic particles from the test explosion was blamed for the side effects. The Pentagon spokesman said two of the high-altitude blasts in the Johnston Island area will be equivalent to fewer than million tons of TINT.
 He said one of these shots will be at an altitude measured in tens of kilometers, the other at hun dreds of kiiorneters. A kilometel l is five-eights of a mile. 1 The third shot will be in tho
 megaton- yield range, and will bt fired at hundreds of kilometers, tn, spokesman said.

WENDELL KAY WILL NOT SEEK GOVERNORS POST


 ANCHORAGE tR Wendell Kay, former state chairman, yester- day eliminated himself as candi- date from the governorship of Alaska.
 Others who have filed are Gov. Wm. Egan, attorney John L. Rader of Anchorage, former Anchorage mayor George Eyer, House Speak CT Warren Taylor of Fairbanks and David Boyer of Anchor Point.
 Kay was replaced as State De- mocratic Chairman by Senate Pres ident Frank Peratrovich of Kla- wock at the party's 1862 conven- ton which ended at Nome late Sunday night.
 Kay, an Anchorage attorney and former member of the Territorial House of Representatives, hinted in a statement announcing his de- cision that his support would not be thrown to Egan, although Kay did not say whom he would back in the Aug. IA primary election.
 II have decided not to run for governor Kay said. 'sThe purpose of a primary election is to afford the voters a reasonable choice be- tween the man they already have and someone who might do a bet ter job.
 sThe wisdom and experience of Mir. Taylor, and the youthful vigor of Mir. Rader, would seem to pro- vide the voters with an ample choice.
 T deeply regret that this state ment will probably disappoint many fine people who have urged me to run. It will probably also disappoint number of my enemies who have been busy dipping ar rows for the past several months can only advise them to save their ammunition for sshe ws.s l fights and runs away may live t 1 fight another day." as Genera Custer .ssn..la have sssess well well ss a l vised.

1t takes a lot of imagination
to convert a PIT boat into a
luxury yacht. but one such
craft is expected to be plying
the Potomac and Chesapeake
Bay next summer as a charter
vessel.
Clarence Melvin, former ma
rina manager at Piney Point,
Md, got the idea on a visit
to Florida and is doing the
work almost single-handed at
the dock in back of his home
on Herring Creek, Tall Tim
bers.
The PIT boat, Melvin says,
is the last one that Elco made
and was on the ways when the
war ended. The hull had only
been in the water five years
when he found it and engines
never had been installed. Con-
struction is of double planked
mahogany with five water
tight bulkheads, ribs every foot
and double ribs in the bottom
Melvin then formed a cor
poration of himself, his wife
Nancy, and John Briscoe OF
Leonardtown to raise the $10,-
900 necessary to buy it and the
heavy additional sums needed
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-11-02

to convert 1t into the yacht
he envisioned.
The purchase was made a
year ago and he has been
working on the craft for nearly
six months. Already it is taking
shape with a large cabin built
on the main deck and a cap
tain's bridge above.
Since PIT boats have very
blunt bows, Melvin first built
up the sheer line with mahog-
any and oak adding two feet to
the 81 feet of length. Forward
of the main cabin will be a
lounge while inside there will
be a salon, dining room and
television room, all done in
mahogany.
Behind the captains bridge

rooms for 20 passengers plus
Ia galley are being created
below. In the engine room are
two 671 diesels with $50 total
horsepower plus a diesel gen.
orator. Final step will be to
cover the canvas deck with
teak.
With a crew Of four, cap
tain, engineer, mate and two
stewards, Melvin plans to take
parties out of Washington for
weekend trips to Virginia

Blues in Potomac
The trout off No. IA buoy in
the Point Lookout area have de-
parted but some schools of
blues are still ranging the
mouth of the lower Potomac
between the Coan River and
Smiths Point. They are of
good size, running 3 to 4
pounds, but boats out Of Vir-
ginia which chum for them
with ground menhaden are do
ing better than the trollers.
Some rock are mixed with the
blues.
Large schools Of rock and
blues also are reported in the
triangle between Point Look
out and Smiths Point but they
go down too quickly for the
charter fishermen. A big school
was found upriver between
Piny Point and Tall Timbers
last week end. Many were
throwbacks but some parties
got up to 100.
Rockfish catches by trollers
also have been reported from
up the Potomac at Higgins
and White Point beach, Cobb
Island, Colonial Beach, Cedar
Point, Matthias Point and Swan
Point.
Ocean Anglers Taking Trout
Some perch and rock also
were taken recently up the st.
Mary's River by using, of all
things, crickets around the
shores and grassy areas.
Fishing along the nearby
ocean front still is chiefly for
trout with some blues and
founder biting in the surf and
inletS.

the South and Severn Rivers,
yellow perch fishing has fallen
off but Stew Wells at Largo
says the pike are taking hold.
Best method is to cast minnowS

the fish seem to be running

perch still can be caught on
bloodworms.

A tremendous concentration

news in Chesapeake Bay fish
ing this week.
Although high winds have
been plaguing charter shippers
acres of fish have been re-
ported breaking in all direc-
tons. Catches are said to have
been as high as 500 of fish
ranging from the 12-inch min
imum to S pounds.

ing has been wonderful" in
