is evident by the fact that the
first place time was 48:09 and the
fifth place time was 48:41. With
$160, $l20, $50 and $40 going to
the first four respective winners, a
difference of just second in a

New Twist Bored
In Shady Dealings
OfRed Executives

MOSCOW, Sept. is (AP).-
Pravda exposed a new twist to-
day in the shady dealings OF
top industrial managers-swapE
of scare building materials for
vacations at swank government
: resorts.
= The Communist Party organ
: indignantly described the ac-
= fivities of wheeling and dealing
! executives who arranged hard
: to-get reservations at choice
vacation spots by promising de-
) Iiveries Of essential supplies.
- The racket, as described by
Pravda, worked this way:
Officials at sovnarkhoz (eco-
nomic councils, in charge OF
allotting vouchers for vacation
resorts, traded the vouchers for
needed building materials, spare
parts and, sometimes, properly
tailored suits.
Factory executives with tor
priority items to offer got choice
spots at Black Sea vacation re-
sorts for themselves, their fam
lilies and friends.
Pravda made no mention OF
the underlying causes of the
extra-legal transactions-seri-
Gus shortcomings in supply pro-
cedures that force directors tc
resort to shortcuts to get ma

Fear, Guilt Held
Sufety Belt Burs

SALZBURG, Austria, Sept.
is (AP).-Two powerful psy-
Geological forces, fear and
guilt, keep most American driv-
ers from using safety belts in
their cars, a leading official
of the United States National
Safety Council said today.
John Naisbitt, the agency's
public information director,
told the 1862 World Road
Safety Congress here that most
Of these drivers, paradoxically
know perfectly well that safety
belts save lives.
Mr.. Naisbitt explained that
people associated seat belts
with serious accident involve
ment and the fear is accom-
panied by feelings of guilt
about not getting seat belts"
1.-THE driver who most resists

who tends to view traffic as
relatively dangerous, rather
than the one who tends to
view 1t as relatively safe"

Commonwealth will cause them

Canada, Australia and New

of peace. A few days ago they
said there was no question OF
reopening the provisional agree
mentS already reached in the
Brussels negotiations for Brit
ish membership in the Common
Market.
Several Commonwealth coun-
tries complained about the
rigidness Of that attitude.
Now the British have indi-
Gated they may ask for a re-
examination of some aspects
of the provisional agreements
when the Brussels talks resume
next month.
1t seemed obvious, however,
that the Common Market men,
bers will not be enthusiastic
about redoing much of the
tedious negotiating work of the
last few months.
Trade Study Finished
Commonwealth study groups
concluded their examination of
trade problems in anticipation
of Mondays plenary conference
session. Renewed interest was
evident in a proposal for giving
them associate status with the
Common Market.
This idea got a cool recep-
ton several days ago from some
of the new Commonwealth
members, but there has been
a reconsideration, informantS
said.
This in itself was described
as yet another sign that the
tide was beginning to flow Mr.
Macmillan's way.

Chicken No Longer A Luxury
Nutrition Specialist Says

Everyone likes chicken, says
Miss Janet Coblentz, nutrition
specialist with the University of
Delaware. 1t is popular with the
young fry and adults alike.
Chicken has long been the world
favorite for luxurious eating,
but it is no longer a luxury,
she reports. Modern poultry
producers have rapidly elevated
chicken from limited role as
a Sunday dinner special to un-
limited appearances on menus
every day of the week.
Busy spring and summer
schedules call for easy-to-pre-
pare meals, but the home
makers who care for their fam
lilies still want to serve attrac :
tive,, nutritious foods without
putting crimp in the house
hold budget. Miss Coblentz sug-
gests broiler fryer chicken as
one of the best answers to this
problem Its not only easy to
prepare, but nutritious and &c
onomical as we'll. Plentiful sup
plies in the ma rket at low prices
identify broiler-f fryer chicken
as an outstanding economy
meat.
The tender-meated, easy to-
cook chicken of today stretches
food dollars and saves time for
the homemaker. The friendly
broiler fryer readily teams up
with a large variety of vege-
tables and sauces for economi-
cal one dish meals. Chicken is
right for any occasion--quiet
family meal or gala celebration
dinner
Smyrna times., 1962-05-17

Have chickenguide your menu
planning often--it makes good
eating. good nutrition and good
sense. Every month of the year
practically every market offers
chicken in one or more FORMS
fresh, frozen, whole, cut-up or
in parts. No matter which form
you choose, Miss Coblentz says
you'll know your family is get
ting a high quality protein food
with a wealth of essential nu-
trients.

 A great cloud of fire and smoke rushed out of the 85-foot-deep silo as the first-stage engine ignited at the bottom. Seconds later, the 58-foot rocket dipped through the smoke and raced toward it's tar get.

COP Verne Martin Raps Gov. Egan on State
 Employees Wage Plan

ANCHORAGE W - Gov. Wm Egan's administration has failed to protect the interests of state employees in proposing a lag-type payroll system for monthly paid state employees, Verne Martin said today.
 Martin, a Republican candi- date for Governor, said in a state ment:
 stThis is a method that the Egan administration can use to borrow the entire state payroll from the employees for one-half of every month, without interest"
 He said the procedure would seriously affect the credit of every state employe.
 Plans for converting to a lag type payroll system, subject te the approval of monthly paid en- ployes, would be paid two weeks after the conclusion of each pay period.
 Egan declined to comment or Martins statement

NASA Shows Drawings Of Apollo Spacecraft

WASHINGTON tRt -- The Space Agency made public today draw ings of the Apollo spacecraft from which man may get his first close up look at the moon
 The early model Apollo craft may enable it's three-rnan crew to select likely landing areas for later versions designed to put human beings on the moon within this decade.
 The National Aeronautics and Space Administration also released three drawings showing the tech- niques of launching manned spacecraft into earth or t, launching a powerful booster rocket and supply vehicle into orbit close behind, and joining them in space for the long journey to the moon.
 The huge orbiting booster rocket, starting it's motors in the near vacuum of space after hook ing onto the Apollo vehicle, would drop away after accelerating the Apollo to escape velocity.
 The Apollo craft would pro- ceed around the moon, come back into earth orbit, and then be slowed so as to re-enter the att mosphere and return the crew to earth.

 Translated from Army lan- guage this means promotion from lieutenant to colonel-a jump of four grades-with Dec. g as the effective date of rank.

BMEWS Sites at Thule and Clear Are Activated

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. tR - The Air Defense Command formally takes control today of a far-flung alarm cable system capable of flashing word of a missile attack within seconds.
 The alarm setup is called the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System.
 Installations at Thule, Green land, and Clear, Alaska, have been completed by the Air Force Sys- tems Command (AF'SC). A third site has been under construction at Fylingsdale, Yorkshire, Eng land.
 They can warn of attacking missiles in 10 seconds time.
 Maj Gen. Kenneth Bergquist, Commander of AF'SC's Electronic Systems Division, said the mas sive detection radar antennas at Thule and Clear are the most powerful in the world.
 Their multi-million-watt radar scans 2,000 miles of Arctic land.
 If the radar spots an object moving, radar echoes are analysed quickly by conputers which de- termine position and velocity of the object. Its course is ealcu- lated, and the warning is flash ed along two separate routes to North American Air Defense lNORAD) Command headquarters in Colorado Springs. The information is flashed within seconds to the Pentagol in Washington and the Strategi Air Command in Omaha as wei as NORAD.
 The antennas at Thule mo Clear are bigger than a football field turned on it's side. Thule has four radar reflectors, Clear three. These are huge chrome nickle steel arcs facing various directions.
 Tracing antenna dishes 84 feet in diameter are in use at Thule and Fylingsdale, revolving fast enough to scan every direction in seconds.
 After Fylingsdale be c 0 m s operational, it will be turned over to the Royal Air Force.

Councilmen Get Tangled Up in the ssTwist"

TAMPA, Fla. R Tampa city councilmen got all tangled up in 'sthe Twist" but when the show was over - and it was good one the gyrating dance fad was still taboo at city recreation centers.
 Councilman Bill Myers made a game try in a losing cause. He even gave a demonstration in his efforts to sway the council to overrule the Recreation Depart ment's ban on the Twist.
 Myers, 45, a fellow of medium build, cavorted a few steps for the benefit of other councilmen yesterday and described the dance thusly:
 With one foot, you make out like you're stamping out ciga- rette. At the same time, you move both hands like you are drying your back with a towel.''
 But his exhibition and lecture failed to persuade enough of his council colleagues. They upheld the Recreation Department ban by a 4-3 vote.
 Ut isn't as bad as the Black Bottom and they didn't cutlaA' that" Myers contended. They used to do the Charleston in short skirts above the knees. And be- sides, anything as hard to learn as the Twist, they shouldn't out law it.''

WASHINGTON R = Defense Department announced today a sharp cut in draft calls because the Army has reached it's buildup goal
