Portugal Demands Stiff Terms For
 1! SC of Azores Bases

LISBON, Portugal lR Portugal has handed the United States q memorandum that indicates Heso- tiations for a renewal of US bases in the Azores will be long and difficult, informed sources said Saturday.
 Under terms Of q renewed lease of 1857, the United States must withdraw from it's huge Lagens base and the Santa Maria standby base within six months after Dec 3l this year if no new agreement is reached. The United States has spent s100 million on the bases.
 Portuguese officials said the memorandum proposes an agenda of items Portugal wants ta discuss at the time negotiations fer the Azores renewal agreement comes up.
 Once friendly relations soufed when the United States supported LIN. criticism of Portuguese policy in Africa They deteriorated fur ther when the United States stood alooft as India seized the Portu= guese enclave of Goa.
 Portuguese officials refused to disclose what the proposed =agenda contained It is believed to include request for greater US. under standing - if not support - of Portugal's position in combating JUN. efforts to force this country to abandon it's African territories.
 This was the first direct eonfir- nation that Portugal had replied to the American request f.. ne gotiations for renewal of the Azores base agreement.

And Now Seeing Eye Vacuum Cleaners

LOS ANGELES tR - The day Of ssseeing eye' vacuum cleaners and lawn mowers is coming closer.
 A gadget which could guide rug sweeping and yardtrimming appll- ances without human help - and distinguish Warheads from decoys or submarines from whales = Was demonstrated at the Western Flee tronies= show.
 Called an optical decision filter, the device was developed to de tect. creVices and boulders for un- manned moon jeeps.
 Builder Sam Viglione of Doug las Aircraft's AstropoWer Elec- tronics Laboratory said the same principles could be used in making instruments to:
 l. Recognize fingerprints, sigma lures or even human faces and then unlock door and bank vaults
 2. Pinpoint storm centers as thes- develop beneath orbiting satellites.
 3. Guide spaceships throug1 starfield while the pilots sleep.
 The prototype device, which has been miniaturized from a roomful of instruments, fits in a suitcase. Viglione said further research could reduce the size of three pound object nine inches long
 Ii is basically tiny computer which has been taught to identify 100000 three-dimensional shapes. It has 400 photo cells in the retina of it's eye and 400 logic units in it's "brain'
 The device is sensitive to visible light rays, which enables it guide vacuum cleaners around furniture and moon jeeps around obstacles.
 It could be made sensitive, Wig Hone says. to other kinds of sig nals, such as sonar for submarine detection, or the types of electro magnetic radiation given off by super-heated missile Warheads as
 
 The key to it's usefulness is the ability to distinguish between ar almost unlimited number of sigma patterns, and did faster than q man can think
 It's expensive now. Viglione de clined to discuss costs pending ne gotiation of contracts for aero space applications. But mass pro- duction, he said, will bring the cost, within reach of the average consumer.
 Future vacuum cleaners" he said, "could be taught not only to steer themselves around pieces of furniture - but also to save time by avoiding areas of carpeting that are not particularly dirty"

Muchen Catches Up With

Unanimous Decision

San Francisco (ANP) - Eddie
MaChen, the No. ranked heavy
weight contender, was extended by
elusive Roger FISCHER, California
State champion, in a 1O-round
bout here last week, but rallied in
the late rounds to score a unam-
nous decision and avert what
would have a damaging blow to
his prestige.
The surprising FISCHER gave
MaChen a great deal of trouble
until Eddie found the range in the
ninth round. He cut FISCHER over
the left eye and scored heavily
with combination lefts and rights
to the head and continued the as
sault through the 10th round, to
win the verdict.

Chicago CAMP - With the sea-
son nearly ending its second month,
this has been a strange year in the
majors. New stars have been born.
Some of the veterans have not had
the kind of years expected of them.
Despite their bad start, estab-
lished performers like Willie Mays,
frankie Robinson, Hank Aaron
and Roberto Clemente are sure to
come around before long. On the
other hand, the experts are guess
ing how long a youngster like
Nanny Jimenez, Kansas City rookie
outfielder and leading hitter (as
of this writing) in the American
League will set the pace.
Sympathies For MinOsO
Sympathies also are being pass
ed out for Minnie Minoso, the
Cuban outfielder, who suffered a
skull fracture when he crashed
into a concrete wall in st. Louis.
Minnie was giving it the never
say-die effort in chasing fly ball.
He will be out until possibly July.
Jimenez, sporting a mark above
1852 has been the AL leader since
early in the campaign. He is up
from Vancouver of the Pacific
Coast League. Actually, he was
not expected to be heard from so
early. But when he started hitting
so consistently, Manager Hank
Bauer kept him in the lineup and
he appears there to stay.
Another hot hitter in the AL in
recent weeks has been Al Smith,
the Chicago White Sox veteran.
Smitty, despite a severe groin in
jury, has been seeing plenty of ac-
ton at third base and the outfield.
He is batting at a .331 clip and
Cup to his old tricks) delivering in
the clutch. Baseball players will
tell you that AL is one of the
most dangerous hitters in the game
with men on base.

Much has been spoken and
written of the tremendous fight
ing qualities of a bluegill. May
be too much, in fact.
..."Pound for pound the best
fighting fish of ALL"
..."R ther catch bluegills
than any other game fish"
..."Best eating fish there is"
All of these things may be
true; in fact I'm sure they are,
but to admit to a dark secret,
I'd rather C a &C h largemouth
bass than anything that swims.
I tie popping bug on the end
of a taperedleader, the leader
to fly line and the line to a
fly rod. Then I take this rig
out to the nearest bass water
and have an eVer-lovin' picnic.
Most of the time I fish from
a boat. 1 have a little Nero 110
Clamped on the transom, allow
ing me to fish great number
of places in short time. While
I'm fis hing, 1 fish slowly,
mighty slowly, but as soon as
I decide to change spots I can
rev up that motor and get to
new water in a hurry.
FISH SLOWLY
BY slowly I mean allowing
from 80 seconds to a minute
for retrieve. Pulling a pepper
bug back in too fast is a COM
mon mistake of beginners, and
the most common reason for
not hooking bass. Bass bug
ging is most productive close
to shorelines, within 20 to 80
feet of the bank, among rocks,
weed patches, fallen timber and
lily pads. Invariably at morn
ing and evening and occasional
ly at other times bass come
in close to shore to feed, hit
ting frogs, mice and various
insect life that falls there from
the nearby trees.
