JJP A sheriff i accountable for the mis deedi of hit drputiei, even if they are Civil Service employei, a cir cuit judge said here Tuesday. Judge Walter L. Tooze made the deciaion in a cane in which a dep uty sheriff wai laggard in filing a writ of attachment. The man who wanted the writ filed laid other liena were filed ahead of his, be cause the deputy delayed. The man asked $1,800 damages. Attorneyi for former Sheriff Mar tin Pratt argued like this: since the deputies were under Civil Ser vice, the sheriff could not hire or fire them at will. Therefore he could not be held liable. Tooze said the crux of the matter was the bonding requirement. The legislature requires a sheriff to be bonded, but not his deputies. If the legislature intended to relieve the sheriff, and his bond, of re sponsiblity under Civil Service, it would have required deputies to be bonded, he said.

Flying Saucers May Be Part Of U.S. 'Nerve' War Against Russians BY BRUCI BIOSSAT The United States News, in a story that has all the earmarks of a carefully authenticated account, declares that "flying saucers" are real. This doesn't square with official government statements, but the msgszine gives a plssuible explanation for the government's position. The slory says flying saucers r are revolutionary aircraft combin ing features of fast jet planes and helicopters. They are said to con form to known principles of fly ing. The magazine adds they have been seen by "hundreds of compe tent observers." including h 1 g h rsnking Air Force and Army of ficers. It's pointed out that the V. S. Navy, is ilself building advanced models of a flying saucer type aircraft originally constructed and successfully test-flown by U. S. engineers bsck in 1942. According to the most reliable witnesses of saucers in flight, they are circular in shape with a diam eter of some 105 feet. They have what seem to be jet nozzles arran ged around the saucer's outer rim. Their thickness is about 10 feet and they are built in layers. Experts believe the n o x 1 1 e s. whose direction is variable, control the speed and course of flight. The ssucers can climb straight up and can cruise at speeds ranging from 200 to 600 miles an hour. They can, it is presumed, una speeds as low as 39. In esse mis sun an aounus ue fantasy, U. S. News points out that highly trained scientists at the While Sands, N. M., proving ground for guided missiles, observ ed a saucer snd tracked it for several minutes. They got reliable dsta on its size, speed, altitude and maneuverability. Whv. then, did the Air force oi- ficially abandon its inquiry into the saucers snd announce that thorough study hsd revealed n o substance to any of the thousands and thousands of reports? The magazine suggests tne ans wer is that the Air Force knows where the saucers are coming from and is not concerned about them, as it would be if they were from Russia or possibly another planet. The Air Force has denied em nhaticallv that any secret project of its own is involved. But U. S. News notes that early experiment ing with these revolutionary air craft was done by the Navy, and thai the Navv today gets millions of dollars for secret guided mis sile research, on which it gives no public accounting. The conclusion is that our own Navy is responsible for this great mystery. Certainly the impression is sained that if U.S. navel experts are not reponsible for the develop ment, then some friendly power like Rritain is. Britain, of course, is well-advanced in designing amazing new types of jet aircraft craft. The average American has a right to be heartened by the pro spect that radically different air- it's the NEwWjstinghouse : - r t-'' tfJ 1 l':i-affiiU ,i ii REFRIGERATOR KltmituiU apcial hopping trips ... kep fruien fooda ail tha tim in your WMlinghouM "Frnat FrV vn whiU it'i defrosting.

But he ought to be almost as much grstified to learn that per haps he hssn't been conjuring up Jules Verne style space ships after all. It's been the fashion of many seasoned observers to dismiss the flying saucer flurry as a sign of mass hysteria befitting the tunes. The ordinary citizen who may have spotted one of the things is beginn ing now to look fairly ssne, if the U. S. News knows what it's talking about. Fresh denials already have come from our military authorities all down the line. But they don't ne cessarily mean that this story is untrue. They may very well indi cate only that defense officials want to maintain substantial set-re-while yet allowing enough' infor mation to leak out to keep Russia's nerves on edge."
