Report Reps Leniency
BY D. c. Troffic Judges

A report indicating some
Municipal Court Judges are too
lenient on repeated violators of
traffic laws has been turned
over to court officials.
Drafted by the Citizens Traf-
fic Board, it includes a detailed
list of fines imposed by seven
judges sitting in the Traffic
Branch of Municipal Court
during the year ending June
80, 1862.
The reports findings have
been brought to the attention
of the judges involved by Chief
Municipal Court Judge John
Lewis Smith, jr.
The Citizens Board in the
past has been successful in
campaigns for a point system
penalizing repeated traffic vio-
lators and a regulation requir-
ing photographs on drivers Ii
censes, which becomes effective
January /.
1t turned to the traffic SCOT
flaws, its chairman, Arnold
Fine, said after hearing several
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-10-20

complaints from citizens that
traffic tickets are cheaper by
the dozen.
Mr.. Fine would not discuss
the reports contents, saying
the board had voted not to
make it public.
From other sources it was
learned the survey shows that
different judges rulings vary
greatly in similar cases. 1t also
indicates that some judges tend
to go easy with scofflaws.
In one case, for example, a
man who had accumulated 81
parking tickets was fined a
total of S25 by Municipal Court
Judge Milton Kronheim, jr.
The man would have had to
pay about sos if he had paid
the tickets face value.
Mr.. Fine said the report had
been compiled to convince Off
Gals that there should be one
Traffic Court judge who would
be knowledgeable in traffic
matters and who would make
consistent rulings in each case.

Prelates generally regarded
as ''traditionaliSt" or conserva-
tive-with their strength in the
largely Italian Vatican curia-

plurality. Other prelates. said
to be seeking a wide interna-
tional makeup of the commits

Although the Pope agreed to
plurality election, the first vote
nonetheless repeatedly gave the

nique said.

vote requirement for commits

HONOLULU, Oct. 20 (AP)
The United States detonated
a low-yield nuclear device
above the Pacific last night
but only a faint lightning type
flash filtered through heavy
clouds visible on inhabited mid
ocean islands.
The blast, a small one by
present-day standards = less
than the equivalent of 10000
tons Of TNT-was about the
same size as the nuclear bomb
that leveled Hiroshima in
1945.
A few persons in Western

island, and a handful on Kauai,
100 miles nearer the Johnston
Island blast site. reported see
ing the explosion. The detona-
ton was obstructed by a cloud
cover that hung over most of
the Pacific.
The blast had the effect of
a slight lightning flash that
faded seconds after it appears.
1t was nothing like the spec
tacular thermometer shot of
July 8 that painted the mid
Pacific with a rainbow of color
for six minutes. That shot was
set off at an altitude of about
$50 miles.
Until last night, the July test
was the only successful high
altitude effort in the American

Ranger Passes
Close 10 Moon
In Futile Try

| PASADENA. Calf, oct. 20
Cap Rangers, the United
States multi-million dollar
spacecraft, cruises futilely past
the moon omorrow-as hapless
as a tourist who had run out of
film.
Ranger has elaborate tele-
vision equipment aboard, and
it is passing close enough
800 miles-for fine pictures.
But 1t doesn't have the power
to run the camera.
At Pasadena's Jet Propul-
sion Laboratory, meanwhile, it
was back to the drawing
boards for work on another
project: Ranger-6.
Like three preceding Rangers,
this one will be designed by
JPL to scout the moon. 1t will
have six television cameras, as
compared to Ranger-5's one.
1868 Target Date
Scientists hope to fire
Ranger-6 toward the moon in
the early part of 1868. They
hope the cameras will take pic
lures as it lands on the moon.
What caused Ranger-5's
failure?
JPL and National Aeronau-
tics and Space Administration
experts have ruled out inter-
ference from radiation. 1t had
been theorized that radiation
from high altitude nuclear tests
might have affected the solar
cells which provide the ranger
craft with power.

said that the spacecraft's solar
panels unfolded as planned.
and the craft turned properly

it suddenly ceased.
Battery Went Dead
Why they didn't deliver the
power expected Of them hasn't
yet been determined, although
scientists are sitting data ra-
diced back by Ranger-5's small
battery-powered radio. Rangers
signals ceased entirely when
the battery failed nine hours
after launching.
This battery hadn't been ex-
pected' to last long. Scientists

tons could have kept the IT.
