Sometimes be must feel like the small boy who said: "Nobody loves me; I'm going out in the garden and eat worms." Only he can't go. He can't escape the re sponsibilities of world leadership. Complications arise when our friends fan out. The current dif ficulty between Greece and Britain and Turkey over Cyprus offers an Illustration. The United States is a close ally of Britain. Likewise it saved Greece from disintegration and Turkey from possible Russian penetration. But when the strife in Cyprus over its demands for Independence or union with Greece led to disorders and these to the forced exile of the Greek Orthodox archbishop, then Uncle Sam was caught in the middle of the cross fire.

With a national election coming up, leaders are eager to avoid unnecessary legislative controver sies that could delay adjournment until uncomfortably close to the political nominating conventions which start Aug. 13. The Senate leadership has not yet gone on record for a quitting date, but there is usually an un derstanding between the two chambers. Speaker Rayburn of Texas said Sunday he expected the House would be ready tot-adjourn July 1, a date considerate in advance of recent years. Republican- House Leader Mar tin of Massachusetts was some what less optimistic, but said he thought July IS was a good rea sonable date."

The laboratory, a unit of Avco Manufacturing Corp.'a advanced development division, announced, with Air Force permission, that velocities up to 25 times the speed of sound had been recorded in several shock tubes. 1S.00I Degrees The terrific speeds were ac companled by temperatures up to 15,000 degrees fahrenheit. This in tense heat would melt the tubes, were it not that they are in oper ation for only millionths of a sec ond at a time. Since the top speeds exceeded the velocity planned for the space satellites which U. S. scientists hope to launch in 19S7, the re search makes possible study of the "interaction of satellites with the earth's atmosphere," the an nouncement said. Type of Canaoa Disclosing for the first time the existence of shock tubes, the lob oratory identified them as a type of cannon 100 feet long and only 4 inches in diameter "the biggest hypersonic research device of its kind." I "When it Is fired, for the pur pose of studying gases at extreme temperatures, a shock wave Is created that races down the length of the tube, moving so fast that its' travel time is measured in mil lionths of a second," the joint Air Force-company release said. Avco is conducting the studies under an Air Force contract.

British End f. . .... Isle's Curfew NICOSIA U) - British troops early Monday rolled away the barbed wire barricades, ending an unprecedented islandwide curfew that held violence to a minimum on Greek Independence Day. The big operation Sunday called into action nearly all Cyprus' 18,000-man British garrison and the entire police force. It throttled any spectacular show of violence by union-with-Greece Cyprlots. A bomb was thrown at a mili tary patrol it. the port of Paphos, 60 miles southwest of Nicosia, in juring a Greek woman slightly. The district was kept under cur few as a result.

With fanfare, the) Russians announced with other nations on international air routes. A. N.

The plane created a sensation among some aviation writers in the British capital. They pointed out it was bigger and probably faster than the Comet III, Brit ain's projected entry into the com mercial jet field, while U.S. com mercial jets are still years in the future. There were also some cri tical comments on the plane. Sales Competition Diplomatic observers said the Soviet Union probably intends to use the TU104 to compete with Western nations in International aviation sales. They doubted that the Russians would try to sell the plane to leading Western nations. But they said there are many other nations, such as India and the Arab countries, which now use conventional American and other aircraft on their domestic and in ternational air routes who might offer a market for the Russian Jets. The Soviet jets, these sources said, might be another spear in the Russian attempt to penetrate the Middle East. Heavy Blow "Its mass production would be a heavy blow to tha American aircraft industry and to U J. pres tige in general," said one British observer. In his Interview, Tupolev said the TU104 has aa aircondiUoned, pressurized cabin, can fly 1,000 miles nonstop, cruise at 500 miles per hour, maintain an altitude ot 33,000. feet and carry SO passen gers and baggage in comfort or 70 passengers under tourist-type accommodations. .

The blaze broke out Just be fore Sunday School classes were to have begun. No one was in jured. The Rev. John H.
