Another inmate was nearby, his arms wrapped around his four children. Twenty-five selected prisoners mingled with their visitors in the parking lot across the lawn from the gas chamber during San Quentin's sixth annual music fes tival. They sat among an audi ence of about 150. "This is an experiment," said the associate warden, Walter Achuff. "We hope it works out all right." It did. A young inmate in a starched blue denim shirt stepped to the microphone and announced apologetically: "Our regular mas ter of ceremonies is missing." A titter swept the audience. A guard raised his eyebrows. The regular Emcee, it developed, had misplaced his identity card and so hadn't been allowed outside his main cell block. The highlight of the festival was the 18-piece inmate band's performance of two compositions by their leader, trumpeter Char lie Caudle. The band played Cau dle's "Blues of Infinitum" and "Laughin' and Scratchin'."' Caudle will be eligible for pa role soon. He was convicted of burglary and narcotics violation. At the end of the program, the master of ceremonies returned to the microphone and quietly said: "We want to thank an enlighten ed administration for encourag ing this kind of activity." Bootes and located it roughly. Recently, a new radio telescope at Cambridge, and Caltech's twin, 90-foot steerablc dishes were able to pinpoint the source more ac curately. This enabled Minkowski to make a two-hour exposure of the radio signal source. It ap pears on the plate as a blurred dot. Even more significant from a scientific standpoint, the news release said, is the fact he was able to photograph a spectrum of the object. The special photo graphs required ili and 9 hours of exposure, during which time the 200-inch telescope tracked the object across the sky. These photographs disclosed that the spectrum had shifted much farther into the red than anything heretofore obtained. The amount of shift means the object is receding at a velocity of 46 per cent the speed of light, Min kowski reported. The astronomer has been searching for an extremely dis tant object, such as the one just identified, to help determine which of several cosmological theories is correct. One of the current major the ories is the steady state theory which says that matter is being generated continually throughout the universe. The other major theory holds that the universe began with a titanic explosion. The latter theory has several vari ations. Now attempts will be made to establish whether the new radio object is associated with the clus ter of galaxies in its apparent vicinity. If this can be deter mined, then the average luminos ity of the galaxies in the cluster will be obtained. This apparent average luminos ity and recession velocity of the radio source are the keys that are expected to be of tremendous value in re-evaluating cosmologi cal theory, according to the Cal led! announcement. Directors Due To Study Bids Springfield's school district directors will consider a number of bids on major items, a drain age project at Thurston High School and the summer school program at 8 p.m. Monday.

Ben-Gurion Wants Help From French PARIS (.fi Prime Minister David Ecn-Gurion of Israel ar rived Monday for talks with Presi dent Charles do Gaulle which could include an appeal for French support in the Eichmann! affair. The Israeli Prime Minister also may try to set up a meeting here with President Arturo Frondizi of Argentina on the same matter. Frondizi is due later. Ben-Gurion will see De Gaulle Tuesday. His official stay ends Tuesday evening but he will stay on privately until June 20. Officially, France has taken no stand on the seizure in Argentina of Adolf Eichmann, director of the Nazi "final solution'' which resulted in extermination of mil lions of Jews. But the French arc known to be sympathetic to the Israelis and De Gaulle might be prepared to do his best to soothe feelings at least. Ben-Gurion departed after a Cabinet meeting which reportedly reaffirmed that Eichmann would remain is Israel to stand trial for his part in the Nazi extermina tion of Jews. Argentina had de manded that he be returned to Buenos Aires and that the Jewish undercover agents who spirited him out of Argentina late in May be punished. Argentina threat ened to take the case to the Unit ed Nations unless Eichmann were returned. RegisterGuarct, Eugene, Oregon, Monday, Juno 13, 1960 Small Revolt Fails In Western Argentina BUENOS AIRES Hn President Arturo Frondizi's government an nounced Monday that a vest- pocket revolt in western Argen tina had collapsed a scant six hours or so after it started. Frondizi told newsmen the bi:lk of Argentina's armed forces had rallied to his side within a few hours after the small-scale rchcllion Sunday night in San Luis. The President confidently an nounced he would leave as plan ned this afternoon on a month long tour of Europe. Before dawn a spokesman for the Interior Ministry said loyal troops had captured Gen. Mauri cio Gomez, commander of the 2nd Argentina Army, who reportedly joined the rebels. The other rebels fled from the strategic sites they captured a lew nours earner in San Luis, in cluding the local radio station, the spokesman said. Gen. Rodolfo Larcher, the sec retary of war, had warned the reoeis to surrender by dawn or to face an assault by loyal troops from the surrounding area. He said the rebel force numbered only 300 to 400 men of an anti aircraft group. Gen. Larcher said the military rebels would be tried in military courts, and the civilians brought to trial under the Conintcs" plan adopted last March. This gives military courts the right to try civilians and impose the death penalty for such actions as sabo tage and bombings. Most of the leading rebels were members of what Argentines have nicknamed the "Gorilla" group of officers. They are fer vent anti -Peronists who de nounced Frondizi for wooing votes from supporters of former dictator Juan D, Peron in the 1958 elections. Fortunato Giovannoni, a retired general who served some time in jail during Pcron's regime, pro claimed himself provisional presi dent of the rebel government. The rebels accused the Frondizi government of "Marxist, Trotsky- ist and Communist tendencies." In a broadcast from San Luis, in the foothills of the Andes 400 miles northwest of Buenos Aires, the rebels declared: "We want a free nation without Peronists and Communists."
