Newspaper Page TextTask Force Moves Ahead In Atomic Test Maneuvers By JOE McCLAIN Lit Vegas, Nov., Rtvitw-Journil WITH TASK FORCE RAZOR NEARING NEVADA Ufl An armored task force column 17 miles long it moving ahead Wednesday toward its rendezvous with an atomic test and completion of one of the longest armored marches in U.S. tank history. One of the reasons for thi three-day desert trek of 133 fhiles for tanks and armored vehicles from Camp Irwin Calif., to Camp Desert Rock, Nev., is to test both men and quipment on a long dry march My oservation, from closeup, Is that the two men who do the most work in a Patton 48 tank on a long cross-country march such as this are the tank commander and the driver. The other two men, the assistant commander and the gun loader, have as close to a sinecure as a GI can get on a march like this one. Tank 60, my adopted home for the long haul, affords this picture: Dinner Bell Answer to Previous Puzzle cloh-IJi Ik' ACROSS 1 Baked Virginia . 4 Carrots and 8 A of bacon 12 Lemon 13 River in Asia 14 Pentateuch 15 Household god 16 Spears a wild boar 18 Warship 20 Eaten away 21 State (ab.) 22 Wheat beards 24 Great Lake 26 Geraint's wife 27 For 30 Cause 32 More loved 34 Soundest mentally 35 Stoat 36 Measures of type 37 Sea bird 39 Wicked 40 Air (prefix) 41 Girl's nickname 42 Acquire knowledge 45 Mapped 49 Wily 51 Anger 52 Dish 53 Land measure 54 Salad 55 Essential being 56 Bread shouldn't have it 57 Compass point DOWN ; I . - a broiled I chicken EIAISIUIE 2 Jewish month 3 Lines of longitude 4 Of the pontiff 5 Give forth 6 Stable -Hercules cleaned 7 Eiders (ab.) 8 Mixes, as cake batter 25 Extract fruit 9 Crazy (slang) juice 10 Big awkward 26 Come in boats 27 Lack, as of 1 1 Foundation good food 17 What steaks should be 40 Get up, as from the dinner table 41 Established 42 Citrus fruit 28 Italian painter 43 Seth's son 29 Russian city 44 Vipers 19 They're often 31 Belgian 46Throw roasted at seaport 47 Ireland Christmas 33 Persian prince 48 Remove 23 Make broader 38 Over 50 Machinists' 24 Gaelic ornamented union (ab.)

Bowline Green, Ky., spends many hours ol the clanking, lurching trip curled up next to the 90 millimeter cannon breech, reading comic books. Pfc. William Shaw, Martinsville, Ind. hunkers down behind the cannon, playing his harmonica. To me, standing on the loader's seat in the turret, Pfc. Shaw's harmon ica sounds fine. The tank's noise drowns out all but a few notes. The busy men are the tank chief, 1st Lt. Charles McCorkle, Buena Vista, Ga., and Cpl. Edward T. Wagner; Lucasville, Ohio, driver. Sitting in the nose of the tank. Wagner handles the 50 tons of steel RATE DROP ORDERED SALEM Ofl Public Utilities Commissioner Charles H. Heltzcl gave Pacific Power & Light Co. permission Wednesday to reduce its rates. The reduction, effective next Friday, amounts to $242,000 i year in the company's Coos Bay division, and $60,000 in the Willam ette Valley. Heltzel said the reductions are a result of the company's merger with Mountain Stales Power Co. like a taxi driver tooling through 5 o'clock traffic. He eats a lot of dust churned up by the rock layer. And after airtnis dust, a utile fallout from the atomic blast April 26 won't seem so formidable. As Cpl. Roberts commented, looking up from his comic book: "Old No 60 will shed that atomic stuff like a duck sheds water." Portland Department Store Chairman ! Diat PflBTT.ANn I Fvu H Roberts, 65, chairman of the board of Roberts Bros, department store, died here Tuesday. He was a nerhew of the founders of the store and in 1905 came, with his two brothers from his native Australia and almost immediately began work in the store. He was active in store affairs and visited his office there almost daily until the time of his death, although his health had not bean robust for some thne. Survivors include the widow, two sons, W. E. Roberts and R. H. Roberts, and a daughter, Betty Lou Roberts. Funeral services were being arranged Wednesday. Encroaching Sea Threatens Town TOKELAND. Wash. JH -The sea is trying to reclaim this Willapa Bay resort community and resi dents say only President Eisen- nower can do someming arjoui u. Faced with the possible loss of seven million dollars worth of property as ocean tides nibble away at the beaches, residents have asked the President to de clare an emergency t so they can obtain federal fundi. The tides' begin chewing the beaches in the 1930s, aid since then thousands of acres hive been washed to set along with tome 100 beach homes ind t dance hall. Army Engineers blamed the dredging of the channel entering the bay and construction of jetties at Astoria, Ore., and Westport, Wash., for the situation. By con structing jctlies and changing the channel's course, the town can be saved, an engineers report said, but it warns action must be taken before next winter. The appeal to the President went out from the Port Commission and the Chamber of Commerce, anr; has the backing of Rep. Hark (R-Wash.)..
