Blcntt jof off along Bo f lift wall MERLIN (UPD-Uaknwmi per. sens, possibly anti-Commuaiets, tried to blow u a quarter-mike sectioa of the East-Went Berlin wall early today. Although West BerKa pelice said they had as clues as to who set off five explosions aloag the wall, they did not rule out the possibil ity that it might have been doae by an erganized resistance reap f East Berliaers. Two of the blasts Vow 4vm a section of the coaereta wall five feet long and six feat high. An other, just a few yards away, left a 15-foot sectioa of the wall bulg ing outward into West Berlia. The blasts all occurred within a quar ter mile sectioa aloes; the wall. He refugees caane through the hole at the wall mi aa svjariai were reported. The Communists rushed two truckloads of met ia full battle uniform and carrying machiae pistols to the stretck along toe Schwedterstrass and Bcrnauer strasse near the French sector where the explosions went off. West Berlin emergency police and French gendarmerie faced the CommunisU through the breach, but there were no clashes. The rubble lay on both sides of the wall. Police said they could not determine whether the explo sions took place on the East or West side of the barrier. But West Berlin police on duty at the time said they had not spotted anyone near the wall when the blasts went off about 1 a.m. The explosions were bcVevcd to have been small and not too pow erful because the bricks were 0l charraj or smokeejackenoi The first four explosions were within a quarter-hour of each oth er. The last one happened about an hour-and-a-half later, The Communists sent heavily guarded workmen out soon after dawn and began to replace the bricks which had been blown out of the barricade that divides East Berlin from the Western sector. Two 15-year-old boys cut their way through the barbed-wire sev eral miles north of tne blast site during the night and reached West Berlin safely. But in the south, a young mm about 22 years old was caught by Communist police as he tried to escape to the West Another 15-ycar-old who swam across a canal under Communist fire to West Berlin was reported out of danger In a West Berlin hospital today.

"Why should Bend citizens car ry 80 per cent oi the library load when some of the major expenses are incurred serving outlying areas? asked Uordon Kandau. "As county taxpayers, Bend citi zens are already shouldering a big portioa of the library budget. The same argument was used in knocking out a $1500 budgeted item for the Tri-County Health Department, with commissioners noting Bend citizens were already carrying aroind 40 per cent ot the $51,327.8 '.otal.

Binys mark danger points Sgeclel to The Bulletin PR1NEVILLE - The safety of persons cruising the length of the Prine' 'lie and Ochoco reservoirs is of concern to members of the Central Oregon Boat Club of Prir.eville. This is shown most re cently, members report, in the placement of buoys to mark ex .vmc danger spots and restricted speed areas. A tall white buoy, ena'ad in oianfa with an oranf? diamond on the side is set to designate a djnger area, indicating that boat ers should not go between the Buoy and the shore. The same color of buoy, but mar .ed with the words No Wake, designates a restricted speed area arJ boaters are to operate motors accordingly. These are to be plac ed at the elP. ranee to the cove at ca and loading rOinp at the Och oco reservoir.

Any other Under waior nawirds. v,ch as a sudden shallow spot, will be marked with these spot-buoys, it was stated.

Senators vote farm control powers, 42-38 WASHINGTON (UPI) Chair man Alien J. Ellender, D-La., of the Senate Agriculture Committee said today the Senate voted Pres ident Kennedy most of the new farm control powers he wants be cause Congress is tired of the mounting, multi-billion dollar cost of federal farm programs. The administration's omnibus farm bill won Senate approval on a 42-38 roll call vote Friday night with only a single Repuolican, Sen. Milton R. Young. N.D., voU ing with the Democrats. Even Young announced he opposed a key feed grain control section of the bilL The measure would require most commercial-scale wheat and feed grain growers to accept rigid acreage controls backed up by cash penalties for violators or face sharp cuts in the level of government price supports. Ellender said the bill would go far toward reducing the huge cost of the farm program." He said it was mis argument wnicn per suaded Sen. Harry Byrd, D-Va., and several other Democrats who normally oppose farm control pro grams to back the administration on key votes. Biggest Victory Senate Democratic Whip Hubert H. Humphrey, Minn., predicted the House where the Agriculture Committee has already approved a similar bill will follow the Sen' ate in endorsing the Kennedy pro gram. He callei. the Senate action the administration's biggest legis lative victory of the year so far.

Attorney Jacques luorni said Ferrandi will charge that: Salan maintained regular con tacts with French political lead- JT' some of whom encouraged his fight against President Charles de Gaulle. Regular Report A prominent French politician gave Salan regular reports on Salan paid bribes to certain French politicians to support the "French Algeria" cause. Isorni said Ferrandi had decid ed to make his charges public be cause the persons concerned are contributing to . . . bloodthirsty repression by their actions or by their silence." Meanwhile, action was under way in the courts to review the dealh sentence imposed on Gen. Edmond Jouhaud, Salan s former second-in-command of the OAS, in view of the lighter sentence im posed on his chief. Request Accepted Justice Minister Jean Foyer late Friday accepted a request by Jouhaud's attorneys to ask the court of appeal to rule on wheth er a new trial should be held. The ruling automatically sus pended Jouhaud's death sentence pending a court ruling. It came as rumors swept Paris that Jou haud and two men convicted of killing an Algiers police official Inst year would be executed at dawn today. There was no official comment on whether the two convicted murderers, Albert Dovecar and Claude Piegts, would be spared until Jouhaud's appeal for a new trial was either accepted or re jected. Only President Charles de Gaulle is empowered to commute their sentence, which was not subject to appeal. The court was expected to rule on Jouhaud's request for a new trial within three or four days. Band budget back to full $3,000 sum The Bend Municipal Band.

Carpenter to return to Canaveral Sunday for reunion with family GRAND TURK ISLAND, Baha mas (UPI) Scott Carpenter, who returned healthy, hungry and alert from three- orbits of t h e earth, hoped to finish telling eag er scientists today about his ex periences in space, with time out for some of his beloved skin-diving. Sunday, the nation's new space hero returns to Cape Canaveral for a welcoming parade and a reunion with his wife, Rene, and their four children. Today, more long sessions with doctors and engineers were scheduled in the little tracking station hospital that has served as de-briefing center for the U.S. orbital space flight program. But Carpenter hoped to take a break during the day to got in some skin-diving over the coral beds off this Bahamian island. When he was here in February to assist in de-briefing fellow astro naut John Glenn, Carpenter, an expert diver, helped save the life of another diver who had passed out underwater. The talks with the scientists probably will last into the night, and there may be some final ses sions Sunday morning. Carpenter was tentatively scheduled to ar rive back on the mainland about 3 p m. EDT Sunday. Before they let him go, the ex perts wanted to pull from Car penter every detail they could of the space ride in a Mercury cap sule that started Thursday morn ing at Cape Canaveral and end ed about 250 miles beyond the planned capsule landing area In the Atlantic, with the astronaut out of contact with the world for 40 tense minutes but coolly await ing rescue In a life raft There remained one major question to answer about Carpen ter's flight In his Aurora-7 cap sule: Was it trouble In the con trol system, or something else, which eaused Carpenter to over shoot the landing area? Carpenter's answer seemed to he that it was something else. Looking for a Job? .' tS an agricultural technic lan.

It just doesn't teem possible, but if you want a camp cook, you ask for a camp cook. Everybody that a camp cook fixes the j(.now for a gang o! nuich hands There evidently was some trou ble in the control system, Car penter told technicians Friday, but he spotted it himself, took over control of Aurora-7 manual ly, and aligned It properly for the critical re-entry into the atmos phere. If Carpenter Is right, then scientists will have to dismiss their first theory based on what may have been misleading telemetry signals received on earth from the capsule that Aurora-7 was eight to ten d e - grecs off in alignment, an error that would have made it streak far beyond the waiting recovery fleet. As for Carpenter himself, the verdict of physicians and psychi atrists who examined him meti culously was that the 37-year-old Navy lieutenant commander was normal in every respect Rock production bid is rejected SALEM (UPD Forty-one con tracts were awarded by the Ore gon Highway Commission Friday on the basis of bids received here Wednesday.

The commission listened to a number of delegations Friday aft tcrnoon, Including one from Clack amas County that renewed a re quest for a new Willamette River bridge between Oregon City and West Linn.

Iowa (UPI) -The Civil Aeronautics Board said today an explosive force of un known origin caused a Continen tal Airlines jet airliner to break apart in the sky and crash, tak ing 45 persons to their deaths. In a terse four-paragraph state ment, Edward E. Slattery Jr., public relations officer for tlie CAB, said the explosion "occurred within tlie aft portion of tlie flight" which was bound for Los Angeles from Chicago. Slattery's statment said: "The CAB today announced the following progress report on its investigation of a Continental Air lines fatal accident involving a 707 jet transport which occurred near Unionvillc, Mo., May 22, 1062. "CAB air safety Investigators have determined that an explo sive forco of unkivown origin oc curred witiiin Uie aft portion of tlie fuselage and caused the air craft to break up in flight' Sent to Laboratory "Portions of the cabin interior and fuselage structure have been sent to Washington for laboratory analysis to ascertain Uie nature of tlie explosive ingredients. "The CAB investigation Is con tinuing at tho scene in Union- vule. Mo., and In Centerville, Iowa, where a mockup of the rear fuselage structure of tlie 707 is being constructed by board in vestigators." A medical investigator said earlier that a chemical burn found on a victim's body raised Uie suspicion of an explosion. Dr. Charles L. Judd, coroner of Putnam County, Mo., said Uie burn was found on the body of a stewardess, one of Uie 45 per sons who died when the Boeing 707 jet broke up in Uie air over southern Iowa. Type of Chemical Judd said Uie bum nppoarcd to be "some type of chemical burn from a higher grade chemical than jot fuel. He said it appeared more sus picious all Uie Ume Uiere could have been some type of explosion aboard Uie plane. Reports circulated Uiat one or more of Uie passengers aboard the jet had carried unusually high air travel insurance policies. A spokesman for Mutual of Omaha, insurance company, said it had located two policies carried by passengers, one for $150,000 and another for $75,000. The spokesman said those amounts were not unusually high. Spokesmen for Continental Air lines in Chicago said Uiey expect ed Uie company to make a state ment about Uie Insurance policies Monday. Judd said the right arm of Uie stewardess, Martha Joyce Rush, 23, Manhattan Beach, Calif., had "extensive burns." The burn area was "black and charred," he said. He said Uiis led him to be lieve that it came from a "flash fiame, one that came suddenly and then was over." Investigation Made Miss Rush was believed to have been working In Uie tail section of Uie plane. Her body was not discovered until about 42 hours after the crash. Judd, reached at nearby Union ville. Ma., said one oUier body al so had a "very slight" burn. He said Uie FBI took tissues from Uie burn area to check on Uie possible source. Federal authorities have empha sized ever since Uie $5.5 million jet crashed while dodging severe weather 'hat they wore not ruling out any possibility.
