Russian Spy Executed in Accordance with Sentence

MOSCOW R - Tass said Thurs day Oleg Penkovsky has been ex- ecuted in accordance with the sen tence pronounced last Saturday in the spy case involving Greville Wynne, a British businessman.
 The Soviet news agency said the presidium of the Supreme Soviet rejected an appeal for clemancy by Penkovsky, A, sentenced to death after being convicted of high treason. He was shot. Penkovsky was former deputy chief of the State Committee on scientific re- search and coordination.
 Wynne, also A, was sentenced to eight years in confinement. He contended before the military court which tried him with Penkovsky that he had been tricked by the British Intelligence Service into serving as courier for Soviet military, political and economic secrets ferreted out by Penkovsky. The court ruled the two were members of a spy network that fed 5000 films of secret Soviet documents to the West in 16 months.

g Strike Outs

FARMINGDALE, NY. R - More than 10 Strikeouts in a game? Sandy Koufax seems to do it all the time.
 More than 20? Tom Cheney of Washington struck out 21 last sea- son in Is innings against Baltimore.
 But more than 30? No one around here had ever heard of it until Ken Widman did it, with two to spare.
 The handsome, blond pitcher of the Long Island Aggies struck out 32 men in Is innings in a 20 game in the recent district finals of the National Junior College tournament. He also had a no- hitter for 925 innings.
 The performance perked up in- terest in the 19-year-old right handler among pro baseball scouts, and they came to the right place.
 Young Widman has wanted to be pro ball player all his life, and he is more interested in that right now, well, girls.
 There's time for them later" he said

Employment Shows
 A Rise During April

JUNEAU tR - Total employ ment in Alaska during the month of April was 65,9OO, up $500 from the figure during the same month last year, Labor Commissioner Gil Johnson said yesterday.
 Johnson attributed the rise to state and federal government hiring and increased employment in the contract construction and trade and service industries.
 Indications are that construc- ton employment this summer will surpass the 6,700 workers on the job during the peak activity month of September, 1862, John son said.
 An estimated 5000 persons will be employed on state highway projects alone.

Prestige Is Going to The Dogs in Washington

WASHINGTON R - Prestige is going to the dogs in the nations capital.
 John Nelson, assistant chief of the District of Columbia Licensing Bureau, said Wednesday that Pres ident Kennedy's three dogs will be given the loW-number prestige of 1, 2 and 3 on their licenses this year.
 Charlie, Welsh terrier belonging to the Kennedy family has been the No. 1 dog in town for more than year, but Pushinka, a gift from Soviet Premier Khrushchev, and Clipper, the family's German shepherd, had been relegated to the fairly low status of Nos. 9 and 10.
 The new lineup means down. grading for the canine licenses of two other well known families. Vice President Lyndon Johnson's beagle will drop from No. to No. A. And FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover's Cairn terriers will slip from Nos. and to and 6.

HUNTINGTON, NY. R It made sense to Miss Isabelle Penny, but not to architect Gordon Vie denkeller, who worked with his office staff gathering 35,848 of the lady's "namesakes" of the floor.
 Miss Penny, 60, lost a court judgment of $358.48 to Wieden- keller yesterday despite he con- tention that she didn't think she owed the architect anything for building plans, because she didn't use them.
 Miss Penny paid with seven bags of pennies which were dump ed on the floor.
