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.
Gregory Conway, one of the coun-

The two Johnston attempts have
been the only pre-announced pub

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.

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." -

Maurine, Medics
In Clash On List
PORTLAND (UPI) Sen.
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.
