Question: Gould you give
information regarding the
Book Of Kells' or tell me
where I can get the infor-
nation? / understand 1t is
a translation Of the Bible by
Irish monks. Is this SOP"
You are correct. The Book
of Kells is a manuscript of
the four gospels which dates
from about the 9th century.
1t has been called the finest
specimen Of writing in an
Irish hand anywhere in the
word. The original manu-
script is preserved today at
Trinity College In Dublin.
The Book of Kells Is so
named because 1t Is believed
to have been written in the
Monastery of Kells (some-
times called Kenanna) in
County Meath. In 1850 a
facsimile edition of the Book
of Kells was published in
Great Britain.

held yesterday by the United

quently was charged with taxi
ing a plane onto an active run
way without clearance, taking
off in a plane without clear
ance from the control tower
and operating an Air Force
multiengine plane with less
than the prescribed minimum

But the same board OF review
that heard the case ruled that
the charges could apply only 10
pilots and that the young air.
man could be charged only with
wrongful appropriation OF the
airplane. The appellate court
upheld the boards ruling.
At one point In the testi-
mony, a witness quoted the air.
man as saying when he re-
turned TO the base: They can't
call me q hangar pilot now"
II was brought out that the
defendant had saved up money
while working In Tucson and
that he had taken several fly
ing lessons at the eity's air

cent Of the 1957-l959 average.

by decreases in a number Of
other materials.
Automobile assemblies poured
out at the high level Of the last
seven or eight months. although
somewhat less than In Jaru-
airy. The board said preliminary
March production schedules
point TO continued high output.
Economic output continued
to change little in February,

declined further from mid-Feb-
ruary to mid-March. CONNER
cial bank credit continued to
expand. while security markets
were relatively stable"

at record rates. Output Of in
dustrial and commercial ma
chinery. rose, and there was
little change in freight and

Chairman Harris. Democrat

and a fraud" until Mr.. Sind

Representative Rogers. Dem

Mr. Rogers said he gathered
from the Sindlinger testimony
that very few companies are
giving reliable figures"
I'm fairness to the compa-
MES" Mr.. Sindlinger said. the
fault is more with the users OF
the ratings" But later he en-
phasized that the rating COM

too. .-
He said he does not want
10 see the rating industry reg

Mr. Sindlinger said, he told Mr..

Working on the assumption
that any kid who can be a Cub
Scout can learn to swim, John
K. Jones is giving lessons to Is
members of Pack 757 in his
backyard pool.
BY Friday he expects all IS
boys in the pack he leads to
be swimmers. When he began
the project two weeks ago is of
them couldn't swim.
Mr.. Jones, 80, an electronics
technician for the National
Aeronautics and Space Admin
istration, has been teaching the
boys in groups of five at his 30
foot pool behind his house at
1908 Falkland drive in
Wheaton.
Nine of the 10 boys who have
been coached in the past two
weeks learned to swim during
five / p -hour lessons.
Overcome Fears
A few of the boys have
proven to be challenges. One
child with asthma was afraid of
the water and had difficulty
holding his breath in the pool
But he overcame his fear and
learned to control his breath
ing. Nov he has one of the
best strokes of them ALL" Mr..
Jones said the other evening.
Mr.. Jones, who installed the
pool last summer, said he be-
gan the program after learning
that nearly half of the Cub
Scouts in his pack were helpless
in deep water. He invited them
over and got several parents to
assist him.
The youngsters, 8 to IL years
old. have learned quickly. prob
ably because they've been able
to play in the rubber portable
pools found in many backyards.
Exposure to the water is the
important thing, he believes.
His own daughter, Deborah. Z,
wouldn't put her face un d err
water when his pool was first
completed, but started asking
questions and watching his ex-
ample.
To Swim for Parents
"At the end of six weeks she
was diving into seven feet of
water and picking up pennies"
Mr.. Jones recalled.
Next week he intends to have
