Until a search plane picked the astronaut's high frequency radio beacon out of the Atlantic Ocean and provided a happy ending for the extraordinary drama, there was the nightmarish dread that a national tragedy might be unfolding before mil lions of persons. Tension started to build when Carpenter began reentering the earth's atmosphere. Loss of radio contact was expected for a few minutes. It had happened to his predecessor, John Glenn. The few minutes passed. Then a few more. And as no word eame the agonizing fear set in. At New York's Grand Central Station, where a crowd watched the flight on a large CBS-TV screen, there was suddenly silence and grimness. It was almost possible not to think of Carpenter's wife, parents and four children watching and waiting for an answer. One television reporter noted that Carpenter had knives in case of sharks. Ships and aircraft sped to the area of his expected landing. Then, suddenly, came the electronic word of contact. And moments later, viewers heard Col. John Powers announce that a plane had "sighted a life raft with a gentleman by the name of Carpenter In it." The enormous, Instantaneous relief that followed marked the climax of an event that up to then was relatively uneventful on television if an orbital flight can be said to be uneventful. There had been the excitement of blastoff, and some concern over the heat of Carpenter's suit and his dwindling fuel. But it had been a very businesslike flight. Carpenter's terse verbal reports back to Mercury control, heard by viewers, were less colorful than Glenn's. Less newsmen were on hand, and there were fewer specta tors on the beach near Cape Canaveral. The comparative lack of sensation of the second three-orbit journey at least until the end was satisfying because it meant more emphasis could be given to the practical, research matters at hand. The Channel Swim: Sebastian Cabot, of the "Checkmate" series, guests on Red Skclton's CBS-TV show Tuesday. . . As expected, Hugh Downs will be the new host of the "Today" show on NBC-TV come fall. NBC-TV's "Hazel" came within .3 of a point of displacing "Bonanza" as top show in the national ratings for the two weeks ending May 6. . . Today's scheduled appearance of Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas on CBS-TV's "Cal endar" was postponed. Heat Change Due June 1 The Eugene Water it Electric Board has told 275 customers of the Central Heating Co., they will buy steam from EWEB ef fective June 1. EWEB is buying the com pany supplying steam to heat business establishments in downtown Eusene for approxi mately $235,000. The only change Central's customers will notice at first is that bills will come from EWEB. Otherwise, the utility announced, "you will be served at the same rates and under substantially the same rules and regulations." EWEB hopes, however, to be able to extend steam service on a 24-hour basis instead of the present 21 hours a day. EWEB also plans to shut down Central Heating' steam plant In downtown Eugene and aupply all steam from its own boilers, which have excess ca pacity over that needed for electrical generation.

But purchasing power fell off. The report is made by Elvera Horrell, an extension economist at Oregon State University, who adds that the state's per capita income ranks 18th among the 50 states, sharing that place with Pennsylvania. Last year, she said, Oregon recorded a total personal in come of $4.1 billion. That rep resents a per capita gain of $21, or nearly 1 per cent greater than 1960. According to U.S. Department of Commerce fig ures, Oregon's per capita in come was $15 above the na tional average. Prices Higher In terms of purchasing power, however, Oregonians last year had about $5 less per person than they did in 1960, due to a rise in retail prices of a little more than 1 per cent, Mrs. Hor roll said. Nationally last year, average per capita income varied from a high of $3,059 in the District of Columbia to a low of $1,233 in Mississippi, she reported. During the first part of 1962 incomes throughout the country have been on the uptrend and unofficial estimates place Ore gon's personal income for Jan uary and February nearly (Hi per cent above the same months a year ago. Highest Wage In March this year, according to the Oregon Employment De partment, construction workers had the biggest average wage in the industrial wage field, with an average of $138.38 a week. Next highest pay that month went to primary metal workers, $114.27 a week. Next in line were machinists, $113.19, and printers at SU2.27 per week. At the bottom of the list were canning and preserving work ers at $71.81 per week. The av erage weekly wage in Oregon in March was $100.32, up near ly $3 a week from March a year ago, the department reported.
