Lake Area Visit
Deschutes Geology Club memocrs
and friends early Sunday moved out
over Oregon's old lake country In
an eight-car caravan of some 35
persons on an arrowhead hunting
expedition that took them into an
isolated part of Lake county that
was once under water. H. A. Casi
day, ex-Lake county sheriff and
now Bend chief of police, headed
the caravan.
The group moved eastward past
Fort Rock for a view, from a dis
tance, of the Cressman cave nf
American anthropologic fame, then
into the area of the circular rock
that gives the basin its name. From
the hamlet of Fort Rock, the arli
fact hunters drove east to the re
mote Lake area, once the center-of
a community of some 200 home
steaders, whose cabins remain
among dunes and sagebrush.
The group scattered over an old
lake bed northwest of Lake in a
quest for arrowheads, joined m a
lunch near an abandoned ranch
home, then returned home over
various routes. Several carloads of
the arrowhead hunters drove past
Thorne lake to the Fremont high
way, and back to LaPine over that
route.
I Ideal weather prevailed, the
I hunters reported, but compara
tively few arrowheads were found.
Mrs. Casiday returned with one
of the prizes of the day an obsid
ian spear point.

Great Prizes Still at Stake
In Struggle Between Powers
EDITORS NOTE: The war in
Korea, the struggle for a new
balance of power in Europe are,
in a sense, "local" outbreaks in a
struggle between the two great
est coalitions the world has ever
seen. On the one side are the
powers led by the United States
believing in the concept of de
mocracy. On the other, are the
forces of Communism led by Rus
sia. Some issues already have
been decided. Others are in the
balance. But great prizes still are
at stake. Three of them are In
dia, Iran and Indonesia which to
gether comprise nearly one-fifth
of the world's population. Phil
Newsom, United Press foreign
news analyst, will devote his next
three columns to these prizes, as
sessing the direction in which
each may go.
By PHIL NEWSOM
(United I'reas Foreign Analyst)
In the Andhra district of South
cm India there are in hundreds
of villages children named "Stal
in" or "Lenin."
It is a measure of the inroads
Communism already has made
in the vast sub-continent of near
ly 362,000,000. and the Andhra
district Madras could be the sign
post along the route the whole of
India eventually might follow.
.One of the greatest prizes left
in the hot and cold wars might
be among the first to fall to com
munlsm. '
The Congress Party of Jaw
aharlal Nehru emerged from the
recent Indian general elections-
largest in the world with clear
majorities in Parliament and in
most of the state Legislatures.
But Communism emerged a
strong second .and in the tiny
state of Tripura, at the eastern
edge of the country, won an ab
solute majority.
The illiterate, ill-fed, ill-housed
and ill-clothed millions of India
provide a made-to-order target for

the Communists, and in the re
cent elections they made the most
of it. -
In the southern state of Trav-
ancore-Cochin, for example, the
Reds won 32 seats In the State
Legislature, only 12 fewer than
the Congress Party.
Landless peasants were prom
ised land for free.
In some areas, Communist elec
tion workers handed out bogus
legal deeds executed in favor of
persons ready to vote for leftist
candidates. The deeds entitled the
voters to parcels of land.
In the northern part of the
state, voters were told that a
Russian freighter loaded with
food grains could not unload its
mercy cargo because of the In
dian government's unwillingness
to accept such supplies from the
Soviets.
The poorly fed masses were
told that if the Communists were
put in power, the food ration of
six ounces of rice per adult per
week would be raised to 16
ounces.
"It was," reported United Press
Correspondent S. M. Das from
Bombay, "meaty food for empty
stomachs.
In all, the Communists won 181
of the 587 seats they contested in
the state Assemblies.
A Communist candidate in the
state of Hyderabad won the high
est total of all in the parliamori
tary elections, with 309.162 votes1
or 77 per cent of the total cast..
Meanwhile, both Russia and
Red China have launched strong

Troops Will Be in Close
Proximity to Bomb Tuesday
By FRANK II. BARTHOLOMEW
(Uniuil I'rrsw Staff Corratponilent)
YUCCA FLAT, Nev., April 21 (If)
Fifteen hundred hardy young
Americans at Camp Desert Rock
in a bleak and windswept valley 20
miles distant prepared Monday to
move into foxholes of Yucca Flat.
Thero they will op in closer prox
imity to Tuesday's atomic, bomb
blast than any troops have ever
been, since Hiroshima and Naga
saki. -.
With ihem were 120 paratroop
ers who, after . exposure to the
great blast officially labelled as
"equal to 100 suns." would then
board troop carrying airplanes and
be dropped just beyond the blasted
area called Ground Zero.
The test, will put American foot
soldiers the closest they have ever
been to nn A-blast a distance ol
about seven miles.
And also for the first time, the
American public will get its first
look at a ''live" atomic explosion
actually going off. Two networks
CBS and NBC will televize the
test, scheduled for between 11 a.m.
and noon (CST)," weather permit
ting. Installation Completed
Meantime, scientists young and
old, some of them sedately attired
but most of them young, hatless
and wearing brightly colored sports
shirts, completed final installation
of instruments in towers 300 feet
high above and in bunkers far be
low the sage-covered floor, of this
high desert valley. . . , . '
The . weather forecast, awaitea
anxiously by the hundreds of par
licipants and observers, predicted.
decreasing cloudiness during the
day and clear weather by Tuesday.
The bomb itself was believed' to
be in readiness at Kirtland Air
Force Base near Albuquerque, N.
M. The bomb may be carried by a
B-50 bomber, one of which was on
display at Indian Springs Air Base
near here.
Officers and troops at Camp
Desert Rock were In high spirits
and obviously relished the venture
facing them- less than 24 hours
henqe. As their commanding offi
cer, Brig. Gen. Harry P. Storko,
said, "They are to be featured
players of this production."
Purpose of the extraordinarily
close exposure of troops, In ordin
ary foxholes four, feet deep with
out reinforcement, was two-fold,
Slorke said.
First objective Is tactical train
ing so that, in the language of the
lnvmnn. nn invading force will be
able to follow up swiftly and with
reasonable safety an atomic bomb
ing uttack upon enemy strongholds.
SttU Stunned
These troops are to learn how
to invade an enemy military area
still stunned by the force of atomic
attack and to capture surviving
personnel and objectives.
"From our experience here,"
Storke said, "we have learned that
the Army's tactical doctrine is so
sound as to require, neither basic
change nor modification. An as
sault supported by atomic weapons
similar to the test to be staged,
will involve the same general tac
tics as assault supported by con
ventional high explosive shelling or
aerial bombardment."
Second objective is to analyze
the psychological reactions of the
participating troops, the general
said. Officers' and men of the com
bat team were interviewed by
