carried away from the area Of
the explosion.
The source which disclosed
discovery Of the shot to The
Star said detailed information
had been withheld until after
yesterdays Senate vote on the
partial nuclear test ban treaty
to avoid the accusation that the
information had been put Out
in an attempt to block ratifi-
cation.
Accident a Possibility
Few believe the Soviet Union
would have purposely risked
upsetting the partial nucleal
test ban treaty by deliberately
firing a nuclear test two days
before the formal signing in
Moscow. For that reason
there is speculation that there
may have been an accidental
explosion.
The August 3 blast was the
fourth this summer which has
produced concern among Of
ficials who fear the Soviet
Union may be testing secretly

which looked like nuclear blasts,
but from which no radioactive
fallout was detected, were re-
ported in June. The first was

uses. Whether this inspection
has any relation to the detec-
ton Of the August 3 shock is
not known.
No Worldwide System
The United States has no de-
lection system keeping close
watch around the globe fol-
nuclear explosions. The system
concentrates on the Soviet
Union and Red China.
Under one of the safeguards
which President Kenne y
promised to institute in con-
nection with the partial nu-
clear test = ban treaty, the
American detection network
will be expanded.
American officials are now
tracing the patterns Of ocean
currents, "backtracking" from

Star Staff Writer

A mysterious explosion near
the South Pole, estimated to
have been IS times more power
full than the Hiroshima atom
bomb, has been detected by
eight free world stations watch
ing for unannounced nuclear
tests.
The blast occurred August 3,
two days before Secretary Of
State Rusk signed in Moscow
the treaty banning nuclear tests
in the atmosphere, under water
and in space.
United States officials believe
there is only an outside chance
that the disturbance was a nu-
clear test because no airborne
radioactivity was detected. but
they don't rule out the posi-
bility. One theory is that it
might have been caused by a
falling meteor.
The Atomic Energy Commits
sion announced last Friday 1t
had mo evidence Of an event
In the Antarctic caused by q
nuclear explosion" The state
ment was issued in response to
queries about a st. Louis Globe
Democrat story saying Ameri-
can experts were investigating
a mysterious disturbance in
the Antarctic about Septem-
Der /.
The August 8 explosion reg
istered as a 500-kiloton blast,
the equivalent In force of $780,
900 tons of TINT. Such a blast
could not be man-made. Off
Gals believe, unless 1t were
nuclear.
Acoustic Signals
A search conducted by one
ship and several planes several
days after the explosion turned
up no debris which might have
indicated an underwater VOL
canic eruption.
Signals recorded from the
explosion were acoustic-pro-
duced by southland most of
them were registered at sta
tions in the Northern Hemi-
sphere. Acoustic signals travel
long distances only in the at
mosphere, indicating the shock
was an atmospheric phenome-
non, rather than an under
water one.
Senator Thurmond, Demo-
crat Of South Carolina, men,
toned the mysterious blast on
the Senate floor last week and
suggested 1t might have been
a secret Soviet nuclear test.
Senator Pastore. Democrat of
Rhode Island. told him the

have been located e00 miles

Exhibit of African Fabrics
CoIorfuI as q Safuri

For a new kind of African
Safari, covering about 10000
miles worth of splendid
terrain, the public is invited
to visit the National Housing
Center during the next two
weeks.
The exhibition opening
there tomorrow is composed
Of brilliant original textiles
by designer Jack Lenor Lar
son and artifacts from the
country that inspired the
designs.
Mr.. Larsen and his vice
president and production
manager, Miss Win Ander-
son, recently Travelled to and
around West and South
Africa to study architecture,
design and primitive textile
methods.
- They returned with an
enormous number Of design
ideas, bits and pieces Of
African art objects and
Splotches Of unusual colors
with which to work.
Mr.. Larsen then went to
work in his New York studio
creating the collection,
which includes four prints
and three weaves produced
in this country for uphol-
stery and drapery, and a
group Of mohair easement,
drapery and bedspread fab
RIGS handwoven in Swaziland.
Even though most Larsen
fabrics have unique colora-
tons, the African collection
is by far his most unusual
and was according to the de-
signer, a challenge to pro-
duce because of these colors.
There is the earth red Of
the sand that blows south
from the Sahara, and the
luxuriant green's Of the jun
gle, the brilliant off-beat
blues found in decoration on
primitive houses and the
purple Of the berries that
grow high in the monkey
inhabited trees.
The floral prints, as rich
as the vegetation in the
African rain forests, echo Of
Henri Rousseau. Called by
fabric experts the finest work
ever produced by Larsen, the
weaves are not only rich in
color but intricate in de-
sign and one, Kano Cloth, is
reminiscent of the fine
tapestry woven strip fabrics
done in the remote villages
Of Ghana.
They are 50 luxurious in

NAMED AFTER MILL

Milford derives its name
from a mill located by a ford
on the Mispillion River. While
this particular mill has long
since disappeared, buildings
still remain that, like the mill,
played important roles In the
development of the community.
Focal point of this years

be the Pearson Thorne Man
sion, located on "Silver Hill"
(50l NV. Front ST..
The early residence of Co
founder Thorne, this English
Colonial type brick structure
was once part of the Saw Mill
Range, pre-Revolutionary
War grant from the Duke of
York. After passing through
many hands, the Parson Thorne
Mansion was acquired in 1862
by the Milford Historical So
ciety, as a gift from James
Richard Draper, a member of a
family long associated with the
industrial life of the area. Dur
ing the past year, much has been
done to restore the mansion to
its former stately appearance
