Paris Promise To Delay Its A-Blast Told CHICAGO (AT The French gov ernment provided assurance that it would not detonate its first atomic bomb until U.S. cosmic ray tests in the Carribean had been completed, the University of Chicago announced Saturday. Disclosure of the French guar antee was coincidental with the death earlier Saturday of Prof. Marcel Schein, Chicago scientist who directed the Carribean tests (Operation Skyhook) in January. Events leading to the French as surances were detailed in Univer sity of Chicago Reports, a bi monthly magazine. The article said the noninter ference agreement was obtained after an exchange between the University of Chicago physicist, a world authority on cosmic rays, and Francis Pernn, high com missioner of the French atomic energy commission. During Operation Skyhook, U.S. .Navy scientists, under Schein s di rection, launched two balloons carrying radiosensitive film to a height of 22 miles over the Carri bean. The purpose was to get in formation on high energy cosmic rays. While test arrangements were being completed, the article said, Schein wrote Perrin asking for help in avoiding "possible inter ference" between Jan. 23 and Feb. 5, the period of Skyhook. France exploded her first atom ic bomb in North Africa Feb. 13 Schein, who was 57, died of a heart ailment. Among the other visitors to Eu gene last week were State Treas urer Howard Belton and State Rep. Shirley Field. Hiss Field, a Portland attorney, has announced Lher candidacy for the office of state treasurer and Belton, the political prognosticated say, will probably seek election to the post he was appointed to recently by the governor. Candidate Finds Secret Of Getting to Meetings By DAN SELLARD Of the Kerlster-Guard R. F. Cook, the Silverton man who is seeking the Republican nomination to the U.S. Senate, has the secret of how to get into all kinds of places get a press card. Cook is associated with the Sil verton Appeal-Tribune and his card is legitimate. He's seen everywhere, even at meetings of Democrats. The places we've seen him lately, usually sit ting at a press table, include the Republican fund-raising dinner at Portland last month, the Nixon off-the-record press session at Portland last October, the Demo cratic platform convention in Sa lem last month (at which he was introduced by the chairman), the attorney general's conference on crime in Salem last week, and the Oregon Press Conference in Eu gene Friday. Slips of the tongue were the rule of the night at the testimoni al dinner for Secretary of State Howell Appling in Eugene last week. F. F. Montgomery started it all by introducing Governor Hatfield as "the honorable governor of our state, Howell Appling I mean Mark Hatfield." After the laughter stopped, Hat field said to Montgomery, "Thank You, Keith Skelton." And then, in a remark missed by most in the hall, Hatfield turned to Appling and said, "I'll remember that two years from now. "Two years from now" would be when Hatfield's term as gov ernor is up for grabs. This is not the first time that Appling's name has been linked with the governorship. We won't know for sure until March 11, but the number of per- Demos Plan To Assist Registrations Democrats of the Fourth Con gressional District Friday eve ning made plans to register vot ers prior to the May 20 primary election. Mrs. Mildred Russell, Lane County central committee chair man and chairman of the district registration campaign, said Satur day that delegates from Lane, Linn, Curry and Jackson counties attended the Eugene workshop session, conducted by State Rep Vernon Cook, Portland. Cook told the delegates that the drive would provide an ideal opportunity to build party or ganizations and find new party workers and leaders. In addition to urging voters to register, canvassers will be asked to conduct a census of both registered and unregistered vot ers. Cook told the meeting. An incentive system has been established, Cook said. A prize of $5 will be paid into local party funds for each 50 new voters registered. William Knowland. the Oak land, Calif., publisher who quit the U.S. Senate to run for gov ernor and was beaten by Pat Brown, will turn his experience and talents to "covering" the na tional conventions for his paper, he told Register-Guard reporter Ralph Olive during an interview. Growers to Elect The Oregon Vegetable and Fruit Growers Assn. will meet in Salem Monday afternoon for election of Q,nnrHinfr fn Frank F.1- Ulliviia, - liott, Creswell. The new group will meet in the Maytiower nan, at 2 p.m. All those interested are invited to attend. sons who want to be elected as delegates to the Democratic na tional convention will probably make the May 20 ballot the long est in history. If so, we'll wish more than ever that something could be done about streamlining our voting process. Voting ma chines might be the only answer. We tried and failed for four straight days to contact Dr. Eddie Durno, who recently announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination to the U.S. House of Representatives from the Fourth Congressional District Durno is vacationing at Mazat- lan, Mexico, and apparently can't be reached by telephone. Smart man. One positive result from our efforts Donna Hughes, the cute little Saturday relief switchboard operator at the Register-Guard, brushed up her Spanish. She's studying the language at North Eugene High School. We wanted, end still want, to get Doctor Durno on the record as to how he stands on 'the vari ous issues raised by Rep. Charles 0. Porter, whose position Durno seeks. Some of the issues are Red China, Cuba, United Nations, ana oiner matters. Guards to Collect ror Heart Fund Members of the Eugene-Springfield units of the Oregon National Guard will make a house-to-house canvass in SnrinafiolH fiiinHDi, afternoon to collect funds for the annual Heart Fund Drive.

Mark Hatfield will attend the luncheon next Monday in Portland of the Highway Lifesavers annual meet ing to hear a presentation by Robert L. Donigan, chemical test export of Northwestern Univer sity.

Bottle Replica Loss Puts Club in Debt A group of 25 girls who are members of a Y-Teen Club raised $6 during a Friday night dance in the Central Lane Y Bldg. The money was to have been used to finance club projects, But a 4V4-foot high replica of a soft drink bottle which they borrowed for decorative purposes disappeared during the dance. It is valued at $18.75. Help has been requested in lo cating the bottle. Anyone who finds it is requested to call DI 3-7258 or the Central Lano Y Bldg.
