To Glow In Dark
FT. BELVOIR, Va. (AP)-A
new electronic vision tube will en
able soldiers to fire weapons or
drive tanks on the darkest night,
an Army physicist reported to
day. He said it could increase the
range of night-time vision up to
20 times.
Development of the tube, which
is not yet available for routine
service use, was announced at
this Armv enfiineerinff center hv
John Johnson of the Army's re
search and Development Labora
tories. His report was prepared
for a scientific conference on
human factors engineering."
The new tube intensified the
images of objects bathed by "sky
glow" light. That is the dim but
always present light that exists
in the sky at night even when
mere is no moon and the stars
are Wanked by clouds.
Amplifying his report, Johnson
said tne newly developed tube
when used as special equipment
on guns or vehicles, would allow
me toiiowing:
1. An infantry soldier could
spot an object at 500 to 1,000
yards, even though he couldn't
see it with his naked eve.
2. Drivers of military tanks and
other vehicles would have vision
up to 200 feet, withput the use of

Agents said Rosal acted as
courier because he was able to get
through customs without difficulty
in his diplomatic position. They
accused Calamaras and Bourbon

uting the narcotics in New York.

Tarditi, who operates an elec

Lodge Says China
Poses Russ Threat I
LOS ANGELES (AP)-The time
may come, says Henry Cabot
Lodge, when the Soviets will be
looking for new allies to help de
fend them against their most for-'
midable ally of today-r-commu-
mst China.
'But I didn't say soon," the Re
publican vice-presidential candi
date told a nationwide television
audience Monday night. "I said
maybe my grandchildren and
they are eight in number might
see the day when the Soviets are
so scared of the Chinese tney
would turn to us.
Lodge, interviewed on a TV pan
el show in Los Angeles by a
group of educators, made another
prediction of a long cold war in
response to a question about the
current debate in the United
Nations.
' I don t want to paint a rosy
picture," he said. "This conflict
is going on for a generation. But
he (Soviet Premier Khrushchev)
has lost this round in New York,
and he has lost it badly.
Lodge said the Communists
might be trying to do in New
York today what they did m Rus-
sia in 1917. In that year, he said,
the Communists lost an election
but Lenin declared existing elec
tion procedures were outmoded
and the Communists took over.
Lodge said Khrushchev might
have decided: "If I come to New
York and do what Lenin did in the
Constituent Assembly in Lenin
grad, maybe I can break up the
United Nations."
. -"But." Lodge said, "I think
he'll find the United Nations
tougher nut to. crack."

Rifleman Blamed For Power Loss
PORTLAND (AP) - The east
ern Oregon town of Fossil was
without electricity for an hour
Monday night, and Pacific Power
& Light Co. blamed a rifleman.
A spokesman said repairmen
found a power line south bf Fossil
had been severed by a bullet,
Grass around the power pole was
ignited by the fallen wire.
Repairmen were kept from the
pole by the flames, so . the power
was cut off long enough to give
them time to fix the line.
NEW YORK (AP) - Going to i
school across the street from So
viet Premier Khrushchev is try
ing at timeP-but it's also an ed
ucation.
So say the girls at Hunter Col
lege.
They've had their own cold war
blockade to run for more than a
week now, with the Communist
leader holding forth intermittent
ly at the Soviet U.N. mission
headquarters directly across Park
Avenue from the campus.
The situation has produced
classroom interruptions, argu
ments and annoyances, but also
some laughs and learning.
"Most of the students have
taken it rather lightly," said Bar
bara Galgano, 19, Manhattan,
managing editor of the college
newspapor, the Hunter Arrow.
Whenever Khrushchev has ap
peared on the street, or dis
coursed from the balcony of the
Soviet building, students have
abandoned their desks and
swarmed to the windows to
watch.
"It's as if It were a sideshow,"
Miss Galgano said.
Once, as Khrushchev sparred
with reporters from his balcony,
a group of Hunter girls began
singing "God Bless America"
from a classroom window.
He responded with a few lines
of the Internationale, "Arise, ye
prisoners of starvation."
Another time, some girls in a
third-floor lounge let out a few
boos. He glanced up, squinting,
then grinned and made a thumbs
down gesture.
"Generally, most of the girls
have regarded it all as a circus,"
said Linda Lax, 20, a Bronx jun
ior. "There have been no general
displays of animosity. It's been
mostly just curiosity."
A number of Hunter girls are
East European refugees, and fa
vor tight restrictions against
Khrushchev's activity.
Some Hunter girls have joined
in picketing Hungarian headquar
ters here, following a speech on
the campus by a refugee who said
the Janos Kadar regime held
many Hungarian girl students in
prison.
However, no Hunter picketing
against Khrushchev has been re
ported. "Decorum, you know,
Miss Paul said.
