 Mrs. Theron F. Borden, presi- dent of the Juneau-Douglas Girl Scout Council, who made the pres entation, states that the four new handbooks are a landmark in cur riculum development. For the first time in the 50-year history of Girl Scouting, the entire program for the two and one-half million mem- bers has been researched, ana lyzed, and rewritten.
 Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. is open to all girls seven through seven- teen years of age. Included in this age bracket are four divisions: Brownies, eight years of age and in grades or 3; Juniors, ages 9-10; Cadettes, ages 12-14; and Senior Scouts, ages 15-17, or in grades 10-12

NEW YORK R - The Navy un- yelled today new submarine weapon for blasting enemy sub marines - at long range. It looks like a torpedo, but it works like a flying fish.
 Called "Subroc," the missile is launched under water, then takes off above surface, speeds to the target area and plunges back into the deep to it's target.
 It carries a nuclear Warhead. Its range was not disclosed, but was termed greater than any anti submarine weapon except air craft. Unofficial speculation is that the range is up to 20 or 30 miles.
 Admiral w. T. Hines, Deputy Chief of the Navy Bureau of Weapons, says the missiles prom ises to be of the utmost impor- tance in combating one of the major menaces in wartime - the hostile submarine
 The underWater-to-a -to-under- water missile was displayel at a joint news conference in New York, held by the Navy and the prime contractor, Goodyear Aero space Corporation.
 The 4,000-pound cylindrical mis- sile is launched through a con- ventional torpedo tube. Then a solid-fuel rocket motor ignites Guided internally, the projectile surfaces and scars through the air.
 At a predetermined range, the rocket motor separates from the bomb, which continues on its tra- jectory, steered by it's guidance system to it's target.
 E. J. Thomas, Goodyear board chairman, says the new missile will enable Navy subs to pinpoint a nuclear payload on a submerged enemy submarine many miles away.
 The Navy said an advanced sonar system also makes it possible

for submarines to detect and track other underwater craft or ships at long range.
 By travelling most of it's course through the air, the missile can go farther and faster than an ordi- nary torpedo. Goodyear Aerospace President T. A. Knowles says:

 WASHINGTON R-Earlier this year, Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson was asked about her plans for the fu- ture, and she replied:
 "It's hard enough to get today's work done; I'll let tomorrow take care of itself. Whatever Lyndon does, I'll be happy doing it right along with him."
 The words paint a portrait of the small, brunette, 50-year-old woman who is the new First Lady of the United States.
 She is one who is always there beside her husband, managing a household, taking her teen-age daughters shopping.
 'Beguiling and efficient" is the way Adlai Stevenson described her.
 To those who don't know her, perhaps the first thing that will be noticed is her Texas drawl. It's unmistakable but has a touch of softness akin to the South. Her mother came from Alabama.
 But many across the nation al- ready know her, for Mrs. Johnson rode the campaign trail for the Kennedy-Johnson ticket in 1860.

Oil is $500 Million
 Alaska Industry

In response to questions put to
 him by Senator Gruening, who IS
 chairman of the Subcommittee on Minerals, Materials and Fuels of the Interior and InSural Affairs Committee. Alaska Mines and Minerals Director James A. Will Hams last week disclosed that the petroleum industry has spent an estimated $500 million in Alaska to date. Expenditures were S3l million in 1859, S38 million in 1860, S42 million in 1861 and $66 million in 1862. Production and refinery expenses are included but eXplora- ton makes up the greatest part of the total, Williams said.
 Cumulative oil production to Co., tober 1 of this year from 54 oil wells in the Swanson River field is 25,330,520 barrels, of which 1O,259,11O barrels was produced in calendar year 1862. Gas production from three gas wells in the Kenai gas field was 1,459,319 thousand cubic feet last year and this is in- creasing as more outlets are con- nected in and around Anchorage. Gas from six wells in the Swanson River field is being used in re- pressuring the oil field.
 Value of oil and gas production in calendar 1862 was $28,422,000. Direct state taxes on this brought nearly S3 million into state coffers. Income from lease rentals and royalties was S5,754,OOO in fiscal 1860, S2,447, ,000 in fiscal 1861, $4,- 524,OOO in fiscal 1862 and $8,572,- 900 in fiscal 1863 which ended last June 30.
 Williams said production from the Swanson River field will not grow larger but should remain steady for several years before it starts slow decline. Other fields are assured" he said, "es- pecially under Cook Inlet, but estimates for the future based on these are pure guesswork at the moment"
 Last year the industry, exclu- sive of marketing, employed 613 persons full time and supported many others in related businesses Roads built by the petroleum in- dustry in Alaska totaled 33l miles of heavy duty roads and 805 miles of low grade roads and seismic trails as of last December 31.

toontlnueQ rom Iage approximately 12.6 million acres or about 10 per cent to which the state is entitled. The state has 25 years to do this job and currently is selecting an amount about the size of Rhode Island every 50 days.
 Of the 12.6 million acres select ed, patents have been received on 750,000 acres, Bell said, and the state has tentative approval on 3.2 million acres. Once patent is ob- tained by the state from the fed eral government, that land is then available for disposal under the state land laws.
 To avoid much unnecessary pa- per work and the consuming of much additional time, the Division of Lands and the Bureau of Land Management in 1862 worked out blanket filing" agreement whereby the state could file on larger areas of land-plots en- composing 5,760 acres or more are preferred. The state seeks top filing on not less than one- quarter of township instead of isolated plots.
 The state cannot select land on which a valid homestead entry is made, Bell explained. If there is a homestead entry within that "blanket" selection and all home stead requirements are met by the entryman, the homestead pro- cessing goes as scheduled and the patent is issued. If, however, the homesteader abandons the home stead or fails to prove up for other causes, the "blanket" or top filing automatically gives the state priority for selection on that particular portion of land without further red tape or de- lay.
 Before land is available for dis posal under the state land laws it must be classified as to use - timber, agricultural, commercial, residential, recreational or such. It must be sold by competitive bidding at public outcry auction after being duly advertised. Un- sold land remaining from such auction may later be sold lover the counter" at the appraised and affixed price set at the sale. Leases, long or short term, may also be obtained at these public auctions, he said.
 Land is appraised at full mar ket value and 10 per cent down payment is required with nine years to pay the balance. A por- ton of the cost of various im- provements placed upon the land is credited as payments on the unpaid balance if the land is homesteaded under state laws.
 Bell was questioned from the floor as to "Why is the state in competition with private individ- uals or concerns in the real es- tate business?" and "Is the Ke- mai Peninsula being signaled out for this blanket filing?" To the latter question, he said top filing is not confined to the Peninsula and that the same system is in effect all over Alaska.

State Lands Official
 Meets With homesteaders

As to the real estate question, his answer was that Alaskans have long been vociferous in say ing "Give us a chance to get land" and the Division of Lands is trying to do just that. Some of these tracts have been subdi- vided and sold, he added, as was the SGkok Creek Subdivision just out of Soldotna developed on a school section, but such tracts were priced at fair market value.
 Anchor River area, in which large tracts of land are being sold, is being used as a guinea pig Bell said, and results of how the system works will not be known for about five years.
 The most spectacular aspect of the state land business is the oil and gas leasing, mainly lands off shore, offered in competitive bid- ding. Lease rentals and oil rent als and oil royalties to the state from these lands have contribut- ed more than from any other land ventures.
 A timber sales program is get ting underway with present value of timber at $2-S3 per 1000 board feet. Active timber sales in 1859 was a big round zero. Current &C., tive timber sales has reached $96,- 300, however the state does not expect much direct revenue from timber before another 10-15 years, Bell added.
 The state land selection is ex- pected to be a foundation for growth by making land ownership more accessible to more people, with more land in private owner- ship, it was pointed out. Annual income to the state from pay ments on land in 1859 amounted to $16,900, Bell said. In 1862 it had climbed to $250,000.
 The most immediate opportun- ity for income to the state from state selected lands, except for oil and gas, is the tourist possi- bility, the director pointed out. He urged the communities to put out welcome mats for tourists.
 The ELM had 42 campgrounds in 1859. The state has increased the number to 63 with many more planned. Units, consisting of table and benches, jumped from 119 to 492 in the same period.
 ''The one thing the tourist finds in Alaska that is free, is the free campground," Bell remark ed. Campground users increased from 270,000 to over one-half million persons.
 There may be free camp grounds for tourists but as for people in Alaska or coming to Alaska to get "free land"-"there just aint no sech animal, as any homesteader well knows," Bell re- marked.
 At the conclusion of the meet ing, Oberts complimented Bell in having the courage to come to the Peninsula to confer with "the angry mob," to explain the situa- tion to disgruntled homesteaders and for not "passing the buck in answering questions-even when he knew by coming he was plac- ing himself oDen to criticism :"
