WASHINGTON R-Sen. Robert Kerr. D-Okla), a power among powerful men, is dead and his death is expected to have wide ~anging repercussions in the White House, the Senate and his home state.

 President Kennedy, who got word of Kerr's death while flying to the Orange Bowl game in Miami to see the Oklahoma-Alabama football game, issued statement hailing Kerr's legislative career as "evceptional."
 Kerr's deat' brings the Senate lineup to 66 Democrats and B Re publicans
 Rough hewn, with a cutting tongue and a keen mind, Kerr rose to new heights in the first two years of the Kennedy administra. ton. He became both a powerful friend of some Presidential legis' lation and a powerful foe of other Kennedy proposals.
 He led the forces which defeated the Presidents proposal for fed eral health insurance program fl nanced through Social Security ir the last session.

Badgers Lose, But Gain Moral Victory

PASADENA, Calif. R - South ern California reigned as battered but unbowed national football champion today while Wisconsin's battling Badgers were hailed in defeat for the widest finish in Rose Bowl history.
 The Trojans, ranked the Nations No. 1 collegiate power after 10 straight victories, surged to 42-14 lead early in the fourth period and then hung on for a 42-37 decision yesterday as time ran out on the Badgers in the 18th annual classic.
 "What I wouldn't give for just one minute more," said Wisconsin coach Milt Bruhn, who beamed with pride over his teams 23- point comeback in the closing minutes.
 Apparently hopelessly beaten after Southern Cal scored its sixth touchdown in the opening seconds of the final quarter, the Badgers refused to quit and rallied for three rps and a safety. The Trojans, shocked and bewildered, were like warriors caught in a stampede, but time was in their favor.
 Ron Vanderkelen, a senior quar- terback who set a total offense record for the Rose Bowl, passed 19 yards to All-America end Pat Richter to draw Wisconsin within six points with one minute and 19 seconds to play. Gary Kroner then added his fifth consecutive boot, raising his consecutive string for the campaign to 32, before he tried an on-side kickoff.
 Trojan coach John Mckay ap- peared more like a dejected loser and Bruhn more like a victor after the game. Bruhn, had reason tc be sad as Wisconsin failed in two previous trips to the Rose Bowl losing 70 to Southern Califrnia ir 1853 and 44-8 to Washington ir 1860.

Southern England Buried Beneath Worst Shows In 82 Years

LONDON R - Shivering south ern England, buried beneath it's worst snows in 82 years, braced today for another blizzard on- slaught.
 Air Ministry forecasters said snowstorms, harsher than those which already have brought wide spread death and chaos, might strike again across wide areas of the south.
 The threat of heavy new snow falls increased anxiety in scores of villages short of food and iso- lated for days by mountainous snowdrifts blocking road and rail lines.
 Southern England was a sea of snow. Not since Jan. Is, 1881 - when snow drifted 15 feet high in London's Oxford circus - has the south seen such snowfall.

 The sleek Soviet-made rockets were lowed by trucks at the end of one-hour display of military hardware in celebration of the fourth anniversary of Castro's rise to power.
 Castro himself marked the an- niversarv with a sneech describing President Kennedy as a "vulear pirate" whom the Cuban regime had forced to nav indemnity for recently released prisoners of the Bav of Pigs invasion.
 "Even though thev try to dis simulate, the inonerialistS aoreed to pay our country the indemnity that the revolrltionarv tribunals set for the Giron beach invaders" :" Castro declared in a televised address.
 '"Thev call it ransom but the fact is that they had to accept the pa ayment of indemnifications. !" Castro shouted. "Fnr the first time in it's history, imperialism paid an indemnification of war"
 Castro criticized Kennedy bitter ly for his warm welcome to the returned prisoners.
 ''This man acted like vulgar pirate chief to meet with these towards and then say to the world that their flag would return to a free Havana" Castro told a crowd gathered in Havana's Plaza De La Revolucion.
 He sneered at the remarks Ken nedy had addressed to "the caotive people of Cuba" and declared to the throng: We are free and we are the free territory of Cuba. Now more than ever we are respected and the best proof is the very re- spect which we inspire in the im- perialists, the respect which is inspired by a people who cannot be made to submit"

Six Historic
 Landmarks Spelled Out for Alaska

WASHINGTON R - Six sites considered important in the history of Alaska have been approved by the Interior Department for regis tered national historic landmark status.
 The areas were found to possess exceptional value of national sig nificance in commemorating and Illustrating the history of the United States.
 Such sites are not administered by the National Park Service but are recognized with a certificate and bronze maker.
 The department made these com ments on the sites considered inn portant in Alaska's aboriginal cul- ture:
 Palugvik, Hawkins Island, Prince William Sound - marks the east ern range of Eskimo archaeology in Southern Alaska and helps clarify the relationship of Eskimos u IllC x1AAAS4L xAlCAO1IS.
 Yukon Island, Kachemak Bay, Cook Inlet = the oldest and most continuously occupied of the Cook Inlet sites. They collectively led to the definition of the Kachemak Bay culture. A generalized Eskimo culture type related both to that of Asiatic groups and of the Salish Indians further south.
 Chaluka, Umnak Island, Aleu- tian Chain - large village mound which holds remains of all culture periods so far identified in the region. Work there is not complete but it promises the first careful strategic treatment of a single large Aleutian site.
 Gambell, St. Lawrence Island - the first in the greater Boring Strait region to be scientifically investigated and reported upon. | Investigation of these sites first provided data on the sequence of cultures on St. Lawrence Island and as a result accumulated infor- nation on Eskimo pre-history could be put in chronological order Wales, Cape Prince of Wales, Seward Peninsula - includes ma terials dating from around 600 to 800 A. D. to present time. A living Eskimo community in the area brings the local aboriginal cultural record up to the present day. Nirnirk, Point Barrow - the series of mounds at this site pro- vided material by which arche- ologists have been able to describe the development of Eskimo cul. ture in this northernmost part o1 the United States from around 600 A. D. to the present.

 That Nome feller of the "ice- berg bloc" don't make much sense to me in his bowling about ADF&G's budget being too high. First crys it's too high and then complains cause there has been a Hack of biological research in the North Boring Sea, etc. Doesn't make no sense. Fact of the matter is the budget is too small from our point of view. There should be at least S100,- co included in it to research razor clam resources and more modern methods of harvesting them. There should be more money included to make possi- ble an expansion and speed-up of the ADF&G's program to stock salmon-barren lakes and streams on Kodiak Island. There isn't enough money being appropri- ated for these vital programs and research. The British Colum- bians spend more on research of the salmon run in just ONE of their streams than this state is spending on its entire research program! And they have more biologists researching that ONE stream than this state has in its entire statewide management payroll!
