A Nichol's Worth of Comment On This arid That By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Pres FwIiim Wrisor Washington i!U.R The Navy men om their way to the South Pole for Operation Deepfreeze , O are grateful for many help ing hands. Particularly the likes of W5DDQ. This is the radio call - back name for a fel low in Corpus Christi, Tex., who make a habit of doing nice things for people. W5DDQ Is a 23-year-old ham radio operator named Ickey Zrubeck. He wrote to the com mander of the Operation Deep freeze task force and let it be known that he would do all he could to help relatives in Amer ica bridge the 10,000 miles be tween here and Antarctica to keep in touch with members of the expedition. The Navy was delighted to ac cept the young man's offer. In fact, the tars were so grateful Haiman Nichols Cases Against Three Youths Are Dismissed Gases against three young men tvere dismissed in Ashland Jus tice court, Friday, on a motion of Deputy District Attorney Gene Piazza. They were John Duane Aus tin, 22, of 115 Bush st., Ashland, Who had been charged with fur bishing intoxicating liquor to minors; Gerald Mickle, 18, of 66 North Mountain ave., Ash land; and a 17-year-old boy, both charged with illegal possession of alcoholic liquor. Oregon Farmers Union To Oppose Small Dams Salem U.R) The Oregon Farmers Union said Friday it would file a petition to inter vene before the Federal Power Commission to protest a license for small dams on the Snake river at Mountain Sheep and Pleasant Valley. The Pacific Northwest Power Company, consisting of four big Northwest power firms, seeks to build' the projects. they presented Icky with a gift, a new piece of equipment for his radio receiver. Operation Deepfreeze isn't the first military outfit to benefit from Ickey's amateur radio sta tion. He has long been keeping in touch with the U.S. forces stationed in the Panama Canal Zone. He connects mother with son. Son with sweetheart and aunts and uncles. The Texan uses what he calls "phone patches." This sort of thing allows a party to call Ick ey's phone in Corpus Christi, which he connects to the radio. The Navy always has radiomen at the other end listening. In a decent length of time, contact is made. It hapened a number of times on trial runs Ickey made to the Canal Zone. New fathers were notified they were new fathers and talked with their wives. A couple of them even heard squawks from their new offspring. Is there a better morale build er? In his original letter to the Navy's Antarctic section here in Washington, the young man said that he thought he had all of the equipment necessary to be of help. He mentioned things like the "Viking II" (120 watts input) and Johnson Matchbox, Johnson VFO, with a Hallicrafter S-76 receiver, and a three element beam (rotary) on 15 meters. Technical stuff of interest only to radio operators. Ickey said that his operating hours are from about 9:30 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon. Important thing is that Ickey Zrubeck is an unusual operator, with a full quota of the milk of human kindness. He does his operating from a wheelchair. Portland Firm Low Bidder for Ashland Job Portland (U.R A Portland firm has submitted the low bid for a project at Ashland for a new one-way highway system in that city.

Second 'Safety' Test of Nuclear Device Succeeds j Las Vegas, Nev. (U.R) The j Atomic Energy Commission has indicated it has held the j second "safety" test in the field I to determine whether nuclear j devices can "be detonated acci-j dentally. j Ohsprvprc nf nrpvinnc ntnmir I tests interpreted a cryptic AEC statement to mean that for the second time a blast from explo sives failed to detonate an atomic device. Spars Information The AEC continued its policy of releasing only sparse infor mation on the current safety se ries. It issued the following statement: "In a test today there was a detonation of low explosive force. The test created no radio logical problem." The AEC refused to amplify or explain the statement. Earlier this week the AEC needed two statements to make clear that a safety test was held in which a blast by a charge of explosives failed to detonate an atomic device. Scientist Conducts Test Dr. John C. Clark heads a team of 30 scientists from the Los Alamos, N.M., scientific lab oratory which is conducting the tests on the Nevada proving ground, 65 miles from here. No observers have been per mitted to view the tests, which the AEC labeled "routine" but without any troop participation. Veteran atomic test observers said the current series reflected the concern of the AEC with the growing arsenal of nuclear weapons in this country. Scien tists have said laboratory work indicates atomic weapons can not be triggered accidentally.
