House Doctor

81 was cleaning out the gut
tiers on the roof and noticed
that the mortar between the
bricks in the chimney ap-
peared to be in bad condition.
Some of it has fallen out and
what is left is crumbling. Is
this dangerous? How do l go
about making a repair"
S.L.A.
Answer-It is doubtful that
this condition is dangerous as
it is due to weathering of only
the exposed area. If the Chin
ney passes through the attic,
it would be a good idea to be
safe and examine that area,
too, to determine that there
are no cracks through which
a spark might escape.
The first step in making a
repair to this chimney is to

resemble those originally used
on the chimney.
Exercise care not to get the
mortar on the surface Of the
brick as this will cause a
stain that can only be re-
moved by scrubbing the area
with diluted muriatic acid.

Woterproofing Cellars
81 have a serious water
problem with my cellar. Ev-
cry time we have a hard rain,
the cellar floods. The walls
are Of concrete blocks. Is
there any way to correct this
condition, preferably from the
inside, but without digging
around the building?"
d. W. F.
Answer - There are COM
panieS that specialize in wat
erproofing cellars by applying
a thin waterproof c e m e n t
coating to cellar walls and
floors. This is satisfactory as
long as the surface remains
intact but any minor settling
will produce hairline cracks
that will leak. Guarantees re-
ceived with these jobs there
fore have questionable value.
The best solution is to attack
the condition from the out
side. The use of water proof
ing cement paint is seldom
satisfactory for combating
severe water leakage.

job. Remove the dust with a
brush and dip the brush in
water to slightly dampen the
surface of the brick inside the
crevice.
You can buy the dry mortar
mixed in the proper proper
tions and add water as direct
ed to produce the proper con-
sistency. Many of the profes-
sional brick masons do this
rather than do their own mix
ing.
The tools required are
simple. You should have a
small pointing trowel and a
jointing tool. For a small job,
it is not necessary to buy this
tool because you can accom-
plish the work by using the
rounded edge of a thin board.
We have even used the bowl
of a small spoon with excel
lent results although profeS-
sional bricklayerS look with
contempt upon such antics.
Finally, you will need a
hawk" which you can make
from a Pinch square board
by attaching a handle to the
center.
The hawk, on which you
have placed a quantity of
mortar, is held even with the
joint to be filled. Rake a
small quantity Of the mortar
at a time to the edge of the
board and press it firmly
back into the open joint. After
you have filled two or three
feet of mortar joint in this
manner, strike the joints to

RAPE TRIAL
DISMISSED AGAIN

The second closed door
trial of Cannibal White on a
charge Of statutory rape ended
in a mistrial, but the reason
for the mistrial is a secret.
Superior Court Judge William
]. Holohan refused to allow the
press or the public to attend
Whites second trial.
White, 81, is accused of the
statutory rape of a l5-year-
old girl. His first trial ended
in mistrial March IL before
Judge Fred j. Hyder after pre-
judicial material was brought
before the court.
There was no jury in either
case. In the trial before Judge
Hyder. the public was barred but
the press was allowed to attend
because it has in the past exer-
cised discretion in such cases
by not using the names of the
young victims.
According to testimony in the
first trial, White had relations
with the young girl in his apart
ment at 28 N. llth St. last De-
cember.

Reuctor Launched
In Re-entry Test

WALLOPS ISLAND, Va, May
% (AP).-The Space Agency
launched a 400-pound dummy
nuclear reactor about 100 miles
high early today to test what
will happen to it on re-entry
into the earth's atmosphere.
The brief test involved the
burning of $3.50 worth of
rocket-borne gold dust and
other metals barium, stron-
tium and silver produce
tiny twinkling stars visible to
ship-borne watchers 125 miles
southwest of Bermuda.
The 750 mile suborbital
flight of the wastebasket-size
non-radioactive mockup of a
space reactor was the first in
a series of tests aimed at the
study of possible radiation
hazards from nuclear-powered
devices aboard future satellites
and space ships.
A spokesman for the Atomic
Energy Commission said it
could not be determine d
whether the shot was a COM
plete success until tracking
ships locate the portion of the

Despite President de Gaulle's

issue, NATO Secretary General

THE other component under

to reach two jurors.
The three Huntington men
were charged by the grand
jury with conspiring to in
fluence jurors by posing as
reporters for the Nashville
Banner. They we're accused Of
telephoning jurors and at
tempting to obtain information
about their opinions in the
case.
Contact With 10 Charged
The indictment said they
contacted at least 10 proSpec-
tive jurors on October 81, the
day before the trial opened.
Mr.. Cole also was indicted
on a perjury charge. He was
accused of lying when he testi-
fled to the grand jury that he
had not told the FBI he came
here last fall to contact pros
pective jurors.
In its earlier indictments, the
grand jury accused Mr.. Hoffa
and the others with attempting
to bribe two jurors and a
prospective juror. The two
jurors were dismissed during
the trial as a result of what
Judge Miller termed attempts
by persons close to Mr.. Hoffa
to influence them.
Mr.. Hoffa and the six men
indicted along with him are
free under bond pending ar
raignment, probably early next
month, in Federal court here.

A-Force at Top of NATO Aqenda

OTTAWA, May 90 (AP). -
The is Atlantic allies defied
Soviet warnings today and pre-
pared to form an inter-allied
nuclear strike force.
The nuclear force was the
main business before the for
eign and defense ministers OF
the North Atlantic Treaty Or
,ganization at their annual
three-day spring meeting OPEN
ing today in Canada's House OF
Commons.
The ministers were resolved
to make the nuclear move
without fuss or fanfare, as If
it were a normal military re-
grouping operation.
The object was to get around
the opposition of French Presi-
dent Charles de Gaulle to a
specifically designated NATO
'nuclear force, which he views
as a way of consolidating
United States power in Europe.
Gen. de Gaulle has made plain
he wants France to lead the
West European allies.
Delicately Negotiated
A delicately negotiated ar
rangement provides that the
force will come into being by
Endorsement of certain deci-
Sions by NATO member coun-
tries.
These decisions include:
/, Assignment of three United
nuclear submarines
with Polaris missiles to
Gen. Lyman Lemnitzer, the Su-
preme Allied Commander In
Europe (SACEUR):
2. ALLEGATION of Britain's l80-
plane V-bomber force with hy-
drogen bombs to Gen. Lem
nitzer;
3. Arrangements for the
buildup of a nuclear planning
and targeting staff under Gen.
Lemnitzer: and
4. Greater liaison between
non-nuclear members of NATO |.
and the United States Strategic
Air Command at Omaha, Nebr. |

Mr.. Hoffa's nine-week trial
on charges of conspiring to vi
olate the Taft Hartley Act
ended December % with a
deadlocked jury. In declaring
a mistrial, Federal District
Judge william E. Miller called
for an investigation into what
he called attempts to influence
the jury in Mr.. Hoffa's favor.
4-Month Probe
The indictments stemmed
from that investigation, which
began in mid-January.
Added to the seven indicted
earlier were:
Henry F. Bell, vice president
of the international Longshore-
mems Association and presi-
dent of lila Local 1904 at New
York; Herman A. Frazier,
former police chief and now
chief Of detectives of the Hunt

Alfred Nelson Paden, a Hunt
ington detective lieutenant, and
Albert P. Cole, a Huntington
private detective.
Mr.. Bell, SO, was picked up
by the FBI just outside LILA
headquarters in New York. Mr..
