(News-Review photos by Andy Fautheree) Test Ban Treaty Gets Rejection From De Gaulle PARIS (UPI) , President Charles de Gaulle today rejected the Moscow partial test ban agreement and turned down Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's non aggression pact proposal. De Gaulle announced he is in viting the United States. Britain and Russia to a conference this year to discuss disarmament ot vehicles for carrying nuclear wea pons. At the same time, he declared emphatically that relations be tween - the United States and France are based on "friendship and alliance" and went out of his way to stress his friendship for the United States in a gesture seemingly designed to pave the way for a reconciliation meeting with President Kennedy in Wash ington early next year. De Gaulle made his position known at his first news confer ence in more than six months. It lasted one hour and 20 minutes. The French president said his country will push ahead with its own nuclear plans unless the Uni ted States and Soviet Union agree to destroy and ban all nuclear weapons. "We do not yet seem to have reached that point," he told the more than 900 newsmen and of ficials crowded into the hall of the presidential Elysee Palace for the rare conference. De Gaulle did not flatly state he will not sign the Moscow agreement which will ban nuclear weapons testing in the at mosphere, outer space and under water. But he made it clear that he would take such a step only as part of a broader general nuclear disarmament treaty. This is in line with, the policy he was con sistently followed.

POT Big Weekend Crowds View Local Air Show; Queen Trudy Reigns Good weather and excellent com- munily support added up to a top air show in Roseburg over the weekend, according to General Chairman Bill Williams. He said it was firmly established as the biggest annual air show in South ern Oregon. An estimated 4,000 people turned out at the airport to watch the two days of aerial activity, and many others stationed themselves on hills around the airport to get a bet ter view. A total 100 pilot registra tions were listed. Coming farthest Air Service Revision Set A major revision in West Coast Airlines flight schedules at Rose burg is upcoming, possibly next month. Bob Irvine, WCA manager here, said the new schedule will include one morning northbound flight, one morning arrival southbound from Portland with possibility of an eve ning northbound trip. The southbound plane arrives 9 a.m. and departs 9:03 for iledford. This plane makes a connection in Medford for Klamath Falls, Sac ramento and San Francisco. The northbound flight arrives here at 11:08 a.m. and departs 11:09 giving service to Bend, Red mond, Albany Corvallis, Salem and Portland and providing con nections into Seattle. It was also pointed out that an F27 coming from San Francisco, Sacramento and Klamath Falls in the morning arrives in Medford in time to make connection with the northbound DC3. Irvine said there is possibility of another morning flight and the ad ditional northbound evening flight, but these plans have not been firm ed. The schedule change, according service from San rrancisco by giv- ing morning rather than late evening arrival."

The Air Show committee meets tonight to make a final appraisal oi tne snow, u will also set a ten tative date for the 1964 show and draft a recommendation for use of funds raised in this year's show. Tke money will be used for air port improvement. The committee is expected to suggest to the City Council that tne money be used for construction of a restaurant on lop of the present airport adminis tration building. ' The show itself offered a little bit, of everything, from sports car demonstrations to aerobatics. One of the most spine tingling demon strations was put on by Norval terguson. a Roseburg pilot. Sun day he dressed in women's clothing to give the demonstration of a grandmotherly type starting a plane and flying it by mistake. One spectator was so taken in, he rush ed onto the field to demand that something be done. Another thrill was unscheduled. One of the skydivers after plum meting from his plane, could not get his main chute to open. He discarded it in midair and open ed his auxiliary chute. And again this year, Alan (Ace) Knudtson, failed to become air borne. In 1961, he tried a rocket. This year, it was to be a gas-filled bag. During the two-day session, Bob Dishman was awarded a plaque for his chairmanship of the 1961 show. Mayor Tom Garrison commend ed the originators of the annual show for their efforts in establish ing airport recognition. They arc Jack Baker. Bill Williams and Van Svarvcrud. Demonstrations of every type were staged, including gliders, hel icopter and airplane rides and even a do-it-yourself helicopter. One ot the most spectacular demonstra tion was one staged by the Air National Guard which sent a heli copter and six-place cargo plane to the show. Morse Heads Delegation LIMA, Peru (UPI) Sen. Wayne Morse. D-Ore., headed the U.S. delegation as Fernando Belaundc Terry assumed the presidency of Peru in a ceremony here Sunday. Morse presented Terry a ! personal letter from President I Kennedy. ron at Hiekam Air Force Base, Honolulu, in recognition of "its record in the development and application of aerial techniques for the recovery of space cap- , siilcs returned from orbiting sat- runes. ' The first U.S. recovery of a man-made object from space was accomplished Aug. 11, I960, when the Air Force's Discoverer 13 satellite ejected a capsule. It floated down through the atmoi- phere and into the Pacific Ocean where it was fished out by Navy divers. A C119 airplane of the Hickam- based souadron made the first, aerial recovery of t spice cap - Big Three Meet May Ease More Cold War Pains MOSCOW (UPI) A big three meeting expected to take place this week In Moscow may set the stage for further moves to ease the cold war and a pos sible summit conference, diplo matic observers said today. Secretary of Stale Dean Rusk and British Foreign Secretary Lord Home will represent the West at the meeting, called to sign a partial nuclear test ban treaty. . No precise date has yet been set. But Rusk and Home were ex pected to meet with Foreign Min ister Andrei 1 Gromyko sometime this week. 1 Pact Spawns Optimism The treaty was initialled last Thursday and has given rise to outspoken optimism that a new era in bast-West relations has opened. The pact bans nuclear tests in outer space, underwater and in the air but does not in clude underground experiments. Diplomatic observers said Rusk and Home were expected to use their presence here, no matter how brief, to explore further measures to ease tensions. Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev has said he wants to discuss the chances of a "pact of peace" be tween the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the Communist Warsaw Pact coun tries. Seeks Other Solutions The Soviet leader, who current ly is involved in a bitter ideologi cal dispute with Communist Chi na, said Friday in an interview with the Soviet press that he hoped the partial test ban would be the start of efforts to solve other East-West problems. Observers said progress along these lines could lead eventually to a summit meeting. Individual Russians who come in contact with Westerners are showing great optimism that the world may at last have reached a turning point after 18 years of cold war struggle. Their attitude is considered re markahlc because the Russians arc felt to maintain a barrier against naive enthusiasms. Bullet Breaks Window Charles Rogers, Rt. 4, Box 1126, Roseburg, complained to Douglas County sheriff's officers that a snip er was at work on Lookingglass Road Sunday. He sais someone shot the left rear window out of his car while he was traveling this road. He thought the marksman was using a pellet or BB gun.

Uncertainly as to the number of passengers aboard arose from a contact nciwccn uie passenger list, which mentioned 54, and of ficial radio reports placing the numncr at as.
