said. He had expected about
10000 or more to attend the

attendance on ineffective pub

(AP The drill bit today
broke through the first part
of the plug at the bottom of
the escape hole for Henry

have been entrapped in a opal
mine for 10 days.
News of the break through

Mr.. Fellin shouted into his
microphone:

"Look up the hole" Mr..
Smith said. land tell us If you

Mr.. Fellin said.
That's the plug" Mr.. Smith
answered.
Once the escape hole en-
largement is completed, the
men will be brought TO the
Isurface-one at a time--in a
specially designed steel capsule
that is almost as wide as the
I18-inch hole.
This probably will be some

Then there will be a couple OF

"Yes," Mr.. Fellin answered.
Three Capsules Ready
Mr.. Smith told Mr.. Fellir

Talks Could
Precede Visit
By Khrushchev
Red Ambassador
Discloses PIons
At White House
By GARRETT d. HORNER
Star Staff Writer

Star Staff Writer
President Kennedy and Soviet
Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin
laid the basis today for possible
new steps to ease tensions be-
tween Russia and the West.
Mr.. Dobrynin told reporters,
after comforting with Mr.. Ken +
nedy for nearly an hour, that
the President will discuss new
tension-easing steps with Soviet
Foreign Minister Andrei Gro
myko when Mr.. Gromyko comes
to this country next month for
the United Nations General As
Sembly session in New York.
The Ambassador left open
the possibility that Soviet Pre-
mier Khrushchev also might
come to the United States
during the General Assembly
session this fall. Asked if Mr..
KhruShchev himself would
come here for the U. N. Ses-
sion, Mr.. Dobrynin said that
is a question he was not pre-
pared to answer yet.
Possibility Of Meeting
If the Soviet Premier should
decided to attend the United
Nations session, q meeting be-
tween him and the President
would be likely.
Mr.. Dobrynin met with Mr..
Kennedy at the White House
soon after the President re-
turned from a weekend visit
with his family at HyanniS
Port, Mass.
Talking with newsmen as he
left the White House, the
Soviet Ambassador said he
brought a message from Pre-
mier Khrushchev to the PreSi.
dent.
Mr.. KhruShchev's message,
he added, expressed his appre-
citation for the signing Of the
limited nuclear test ban treaty
and his impression that the
visit of Secretary of State Rusk
and a group of Senators to
Moscow during the signing
ceremony was useful.
Steps for Future
Mr.. Dobrynin said he and
the President also discussed
steps that could be taken in
the future to develop relations
and ease tensions"
He said the President appre-
ciated the discussion land he
is prepared to discuss these
when Mr.. Gromyko comes to
the General Assembly meet
ing"
Associate White House Press
Secretary Andrew T. Hatcher
told reporters later that what
Ambassador Dobrynin said
was entirely accurate" and
he had nothing to add.
The talk was the only busi-
ness on Mr.. Kennedy's calendar
today.
The President had spent a
drizzly Saturday with his fam
lily, close>to their summer house
on Squaw Island.
Presidential Cruise
The weather there broke
yesterday, and Mr.. Kennedy
took a cruise on choppy Lewis
Bay aboard the presidential
yacht Honey Fitz.
Mrs. Kennedy and their
daughter, Caroline, accom-
panied him. So did Under
secretary Of the Navy Paul B.
Fay, his wife and 7-year-old
daughter, Sally.
The Kennedys attended a
private mass yesterday at the
home Of Joseph P. Kennedy,
father of the President. More
than 400 people waited at st.
Francis Xavier Church in Hy-
annis, expecting a glimpse Of
the President.
Some got a look at Caroline.
She went to church with the
Fays.
