Five-Year-Old
Knows Question,
59,000 Richer
By ELIZABETH TOOMEV
United , Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK (UP)-In a town
where ambitious young men com
pete ruthlessly to succeed and
where $9,000 is easier to spend than
to earn, a fellow like Barry Schnit
zer is as refreshing as country
air.
Barry" stopped by to tell about
his good fortune. He had just ex
perienced, he said, the proudest
moment of my life.
Barry is five years old. He ar
rived in khaki shorts and a color
ful sports shirt, a chunky, active
boy who likes to keep busy.
Within one half hour he had re
viewed the current baseball situa
lion; climbed a reception room
railing: recited the alphabet back
wards; borrowed a pencil to do
some writing; named various state
and foreign capitols and outlined
his future.
Born In Brooklyn
Except for the luck of a city
boy, Barry, might have grown up
unknown outside the hilly Brooklyn
neighborhood where he lives in an
nparlmpnt with his parents. But
the three of them attended the ABC
television show "Break the Bank"
two weeks ago, and the boys'
bright face and snappy retorts
caught the attention of the master
of ceremonies.
The three Schnitzers went on as
contestants, leaving the theater
with $9,900 more than they had
when they came. Barry answered
question correctly naming the
pitchers in the longest baseball
game on record.
"It was a 2G-inning game be
tween Brooklyn and the Boston
Braves," Barry said. Personally, I
like the Cleveland Indians and the
Dodgers.
"I will be a baseball player for;
the Dodgers when I get old. I would
be a batter, but Brooklyn needs
pitching more, so I will be a pitch
er." Reeitrd Alphabet Backwards
"Would you like me to say the
alphabet backwards?" he asked.
Apparently to show he was not a
one-topic man. He said it back
wards. "We don't- teach him things, be
cause he's going to be so bored in
kindergarten next year," his moth
er explained apologetically." "But
he just learns."
Stamp Agency
Eliminates Forum
WASHINGTON (IPI-The Post Of
fice Department philatelic agency
has indicated that it is taking
steps to comply with President
Eisenhower's request for more ef
ficient postal service at less cost
to the taxpayer.
Elimination of an invoice form
used by the agency in filling
stamp orders sent in by collectors
has speeded up the service with a
considerable saving in time and
money.
Discontinuance of use of the
form saves approximately 40
hours of clerical time a day. Ac
cording to postal authorities, this
will result in savings of about
JM.OOO a year.
The invoice form was discon
tinued on Jan. 18. At that time
6.-1G7 orders were on hand in the
agency. By late February the
backlog had been taken care of.
Orders previously requiring weeks
to fill urc now being handled
hours after their receipt.
The faster service has been ac
complished despite a substantial
increase in sales. For the first
four months of this year sales
were up to $69-1,000, or a 33 per
cent hike over the same period of
1953.
IT ALL COMES OUT IN THE WASH When mama docs the family washing with some of
today's free-sudsing detergents, employes of the Canton, Ohio, sewage dispusal plant see the
results a few hours later. This picture shows the foam that collects in just one of the aeration
tanks at the plant. One man (arrow) has practically a full-time job attempting to wash away the
tidal wave ol suds with a hose.
Congress Today
By UNITED PRESS
Senate foes of the controverisal
power purchase provisions in the
atomic energy bill today warned
that Senate sanction may lead to
extend debate on other features of
the measure.
Under a ' gentlemen s agree
ment," the Senate scheduled a
showdown vote today about 3 p.m.
EDT on President Eisenhower's
plan to buy private power through
the Atomic Energy Commission
for delivery to the Tennessee Val
ley Authority.
And Senate Republican Leader
William F. Knowland served notice
the Senate will meet "through the
night" if necessary to reach a final
vote on- the modernized Atomic
Energy Act.
A close vote on the power pur
chase plan was predicted. Oppo
nents, mostly Democrats, agreed
they will need at least six QQP
votes to defeat the provision. So
far only two Republicans have at
tacked it, Sens. John Sherman
Cooper (Ky) and William Langer
(ND).
The power purchase plan has
dominated the week-long debate on
Schools Operate
1 1 f" Airplanes
NEW YORK lP America's
colleges and universities operate
a fleet of. Ill airplanes in a
comprehensive aviation educa
tion program that utilizes these
aircraft in such varied occupa
tions as airline pilot training,
aerial application on school farm

survey of all states and terri
tories to determine the type and
amount of aviation education
available through the nation's

Forty-seven states and the Terri
tory of Hawaii returned answers
to the surveys.
The 111 aircraft are owned by
schools in 11 states and two

the bill. The measure provides for
greater exchange of atomic infor
mation with U.S. allies, a start on
industrial participation in atomic
energy and other features.
Senators who' oppose the admin
istration's power proposal agreed
at an impromptu caucus late Tues
day to' end lengthy speeches. But
they warned tjiat Senate approval
could mean a long and bitter fight
on the rest of the bill.
Other congressional news:
Subversives: The House was ex
pected to overwhelmingly approve
today a bill to strip convicted Com
munist conspirators of their U.S.
citizenship. It also was expected
to pass two other anti-subversive
measures. One would set up a 12
man commission to study subver
sives in defense plants. The other
would provide stiff penalties for
bail jumpers.
Veterans: GOP loaders called up
for almost certain passage in the
House compromise bills boosting
disability payments to veterans
and some of their ependents and
giving Korean veterans an extra
year to start their government-paid
schooling. 1
Postal: Democrats and dissident
Republicans predicted a combined
bill to hike postal rates and give
postal workers a 5 per cent pay
raise will be defeated in the House
today. -
Housing Hill: Public housing ad
vocates in the Senate conceded
that the new housing bill will be
enacted into law as it was ap
proved by the House, minus the
administration's public housing
program.
Foreign Aid: Sen. John J. Spark
man (D-AIa) warned Congress
against cutting U.S. aid to South
east Asia because of the truce in
Indochina. He said the Geneva
settlement "sharpens the need" for
assisting other nations to build de
fenses against Communism.
Social Security: The Senate Fi
nance Committee has agreed unan
imously to report to the Senate a
watered-down version of (lie ad
ministration's Social Security bill
that is similar . to a measure al
ready approved by the House. '
Social Security
Change Stressed
WASHINGTON llPI-The govern
ment has this advice for brides-
to-be :
Change your social security
earn wnen you cnange your name.
it you lorget, it may cause
complications years inter when
you apply for retirement benefits
under the federal old age insur
ance program.
A spokesman for the Social Se-
surity Administration says it is
not likely that women workers
will lose any retirement benefits
by failing to notify the agency of
their married name, since ac
counts are listed by numbers as
well as names. But the benefits
might be delayed because it takes
time to check through all the rec
ords if names are not listed prop
erly.
Most women who continue
working after marriage do change
their names on the records. The
name - changing advice applies
also to brides who do not intend
to keep their jobs. They might de
cide to work later on and forget
about the name changing then.
Or, in case of their death in later
years, their children might lose
some survivors' benefits under
the social security program if
they didn't know their mother
had worked before marriage.

'Ah Pickets'

5ACKAMENTU, Calif. (UP)
The U.S. Air Force is establish
ing a "picketllne of airplanes to
guard our shores against attack.
Electronic eyes are giving the na
tion a precious extra hour to
prepare.
Aerial picket planes, traveling
at nearly 300 miles an hour and
operating far offshore, will detect
enemy bombers if and when they
come long before the nation's
network of ground radar installa
tions can pick them up.
The Air Force hopes the radar
ulanes will be 'able to alert land
based jet interceptors to meet the
challenge before enemy aircraft
ever reach the U.S. coastline.
A closely guarded development
of aerial radar stations is under
way on a top-priority basis at

the USAF is organizing several
squadrons of radar planes to pa
trol both west and east coasts 24
hours a day. '

control division, AEW, has anoth

manner. Col. Kenneth H. Gibson.
What we're trying to do is sup

Gibson said. "Radar in concrete
is not enough in the jet age.
We must assume the enemy
knows where our ground radar
posts are. he added. "And we
must also assume they know the
best ways to avoid them.
'But with our radar planes, we
have mobility. We can shut them
around, at 300 miles an hour, and
the enemy can't know where they
are."
It is obvious, too, that the Air
