Newspaper Page Texte Johnston Island Scientists Take Second Blast Failure In Stride HONOLULU (AP) - U.S. scien tists at Johnston Island were pic tured officially as taking in stride the second failure in two fc-ies to explode a nuclear device at high altitude. Privately, however. sources said the science and military team responsible for America's Pacific nuclear test series was embarrassed by flopping twice while the world looked on. The Soviet Union jumped at the op portunity to iiiake propaganda hay. The second test late Tuesday night involved the biggest shot as more than one million tons of TNT but probably 10 times that size. The Thor missile carrying the Women Are Slightly Aghast As Man Wins Flower Show NEWARK, N.Y. (AP) The ladies were slightly aghast. A man won the national flower ar ranging competition. He is John C. Dowling Jr., 48, of Gaffney, S.C., who, with his wife, operates a women s ready-to-wear clothing store. "I really invaded a women's field, didn't I?" he said today. Dowling was declared the win ner of the seventh annual Sterling Bowl Tournament at the annual Newark Rose Festival Wednesday for his arrangement of a combi nation of Pink Sensation and Vel vet Times roses mingled with rose foliage. "The entire arrangement cost me less than $5. I used some scrap aluminum spirals from a factory that makes molds for re capping tires," he said. Dowling said he went to hear a lecture on floral arranging in Spartanburg, S.C., about eight years ago. The lecturer was J.

Delays and postponements, as happened both times, have been relayed fairly promptly. Had the shots been successful, the flashes and, in the case of the try's leading experts in the field. "I paid $18 to hear him, but I really got the bug." Dowling, the only man in the field of 14 national finalists in the festival competition, was nomi nated by the State Garden Club Council of South Carolina as its lone representative. The original entry list included 110 persons from 41 states. "I qualified because of my work in arranging roses two years ago at the University of South Caro lina and last year at Clemson." He looks on the $5,000 perpetual challenge trophy a "the most re nowned award I ever have re ceived." Only one other man ever has qualified for the tournament since it began in 1956. Mrs. Raymond P. Wismer of Cranford, N.J., placed second and Mrs. Roderick Black of North Hollywood, Calif., was third. Dowling not only is a top ar ranger, he is a top grower of just about everything from prize roses to prize gladiolus. His wife, the former Mary Whisonant, also is an accredited flower arranger, but admits she steps aside for Dowling.

Inint TncL- Fni'po R cniH tho failures would not change plans to announce future Johnston tests in advance. Twenty-one successful lower level detonations have been an nounced at Christmas Island, far to the southeast of Johnston. Most of these tests involved devices dropped from airplanes. The blame for the Johnston Island failures was placed solidly on the Thor missiles. The tracking system malfunctioned on the first try, June 4. The trouble 'Puesday night wasn't disclosed, but offi cials said it was in the missile. Officials indicated it might take 10 days to two weeks to prepare the single Thor launching pad at Johnston Island for another shot. Radio Moscow was quick to comment on the second blowup at Johnston. The Soviet broadcast spoke of imperfections in U.S. rockets and suggested a runaway missile could endanger mankind by carrying a nuclear device over inhabited territory. For the record, the U.S. gov ernment denied all and said a malfunctioning rocket can be de stroyed by radio seconds after it leaves the launching pad. Beck's Conviction Good Investment, IR Official Says SEATTLE (AP) - The commis sioner of internal revenue says he considers the conviction of Dave Beck, former. Teamsters' Union boss, for filing fraudulent tax re turns was "a very good invest ment." Mortimer M. Caplin, in Seattle to address a regional convention of certified public accountants, made the statement Wednesday during a press conference. Beck began a five year sentence in McNeil Island Federal Peni tentiary Wednesday as Caplin made his comments. Caplin said at least 100 Internal Revenue Service employes worked three years on the Beck case. It was expensive, he said, but the result was worth it. "This was a very good invest ment from the viewpoint of the government at large," Caplin said. "I think it is a real demon stration to the public of' the dedi cation and efficiency of the In ternal Revenue Service. "The people must have the con fidence that tax laws are being enforced across the board. They do have this iconfidence, and that makes our tax collective system better than any other in the world." - Guest Speaker Slated At Adventist Church nom-ff Knowles will be sucst speaker at a morning worship service at tne KoseDurg oeventn day Adventist Church this Satur day, reports Pastor A.

Maurine Neubergef and the Ore gon State Medical Society clashed Wednesday over a mailing list of the society. Mrs. Neuberger said in Wash ington. D.C. the society refused to let her use its mailing list to poll state doctors on their views on medical care under the Social Security program. She said her office made it clear the society would be paid for use of its addressing service, which she said was open to drug ad vertisers and other commercial interests. A telegram sent to Mrs. Neu berger by Dr. Blair J. Hennings gaard, president of the society, said rules provide for society ap proval of all material mailed using the membership mailing list. "Your office was advised to submit material to be mailed for society consideration by the ap propriate committee. There was no suggestion of refusal to coop erate unless material to be mailed was not approved," he said. la " M .
